BG/P is such an ancient machine, that we don't even remember anymore, unfortunately.

You might be able to pull out the old releases of mpich (the ones where there used to be a dcmfd device in the src/mpid directory), and check.

However, these two papers do not mention anything about MPI scatter and gather operations, I wonder if these two collective operations have been optimized for BlueGene or they use exactly the same algorithms from MPICH. Any reference appreciated.
