[petsc-users] PetscSF Fortran interface

Hi Junchao

Going back to this merge request. I'm not sure I follow exactly the usage
described in the commit history. I have a c prototype of what I am trying
to do which is

    PetscSectionCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD, &leafSection);
    PetscSFDistributeSection(redistributionSF, filteredSection_local,
&remoteOffsets,
leafSection);
    PetscSFCreateSectionSF(redistributionSF, filteredSection_local,
remoteOffsets, leafSection, &redistributionSF_dof);

But something seems unclear with the usage in fortran around the
remoteoffsets. Do I have to insert the CreateRemoteOffsetsF90 like so? Any
clarification would be greatly appreciated.

call PetscSFDistributeSectionF90(distributionSF, section_filt_l,
remoteoffsets, leafSection, ierr)
call PetscSFCreateRemoteOffsetsf90(distributionSF, section_filt_l,
leafSection, remoteoffsets, ierr )
call PetscSFCreateSectionSFF90(distributionSF, section_filt_l,
remoteoffsets, leafSection, distributionSF_dof, ierr)

Sincerely
Nicholas
