[petsc-dev] HIP / hypre

[Justin Chang]

Jacob,

What’s the plan going forward with this unified cuda/hip branch? Is this
related to what some of us have been hearing about PETSc eventually going
with a unified wrapper over both the CUDA and HIP API?

We’re interested in making the HIP port more mature, including having
support for the HIP part of HYPRE, but we’re unsure what direction you guys
want to go with the GPU route.

Thanks,
Justin
