[mpich-devel] find out what processes are on the same node

[Jeff Hammond]

https://wiki.alcf.anl.gov/parts/index.php/Implementing_a_Symmetric_Heap has an implementation of MPE_Comm_split_node that does a very simple O(Nproc) implementation of MPI_Comm_split_type(type=SHARED) using MPI_Get_processor_name.  It also shows the non-portable implementation for Cray and Blue Gene that one can use until MPI-3 is deployed on those systems.

Jim Dinan wrote an O(log Nproc) implementation of MPI_Comm_split_type(type=SHARED) that I have somewhere but I don't like it because it's confusing to my small brain.

MPI_GET_PROCESSOR_NAME might be what you are looking for.
