[petsc-users] Initializing kokkos before petsc causes a problem

[Fackler, Philip]

I'm encountering a problem in xolotl. We initialize kokkos before initializing petsc. Therefore...

The pointer referenced here:
https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/blob/main/src/vec/is/sf/impls/basic/kokkos/sfkok.kokkos.cxx#L363
<https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/blob/main/include/petsc_kokkos.hpp>

from here:
https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/blob/main/include/petsc_kokkos.hpp

remains null because the code to initialize it is skipped here:
https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/blob/main/src/sys/objects/kokkos/kinit.kokkos.cxx#L28
See line 71.

Can this be modified to allow for kokkos to have been initialized by the application before initializing petsc?

Thank you for your help,
