Introducing 3 new APIs:
ncclResult_t ncclGather(const void* sendbuff, void* recvbuff, size_t sendcount,
ncclDataType_t datatype, int root, ncclComm_t comm, hipStream_t stream);
ncclResult_t ncclScatter(const void* sendbuff, void* recvbuff,
size_t recvcount, ncclDataType_t datatype, int root, ncclComm_t comm,
hipStream_t stream);
ncclResult_t ncclAllToAll(const void* sendbuff, void* recvbuff, size_t count,
ncclDataType_t datatype, ncclComm_t comm, hipStream_t stream);
Only out of place operation is supported.
Preprocessor symbol RCCL_GATHER_SCATTER=1 indicates API availibility.
By default the APIs launche RCCL kernel implementation, which can be disabled by
RCCL_ALLTOALL_KERNEL_DISABLE=1. Then the APIs use wrapper around ncclSend and ncclRecv.
