👑 GYOTO-MPI-WORKER — the backstage bestie of the Gyoto universe 💫

okay so real talk, this page lives in the User Manuals manual, section 1, and it's all about gyoto-mpi-worker.SOVERS — yes, that's the whole literal name, dot and all, we'll get to the SOVERS thing in a sec bestie 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

Gyoto — the General relativitY Orbit Tracer of Observatoire de Paris 💖

no fr that's the name, it's an acronym, it's iconic, we love her

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

gyoto-mpi-worker.SOVERS [MPI options]

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So Gyoto is a framework for computing geodesics in curved space-times — like, actual general relativity math, main character energy, no cap. 🪐✨

And then there's gyoto-mpi-worker, the helper program. Now listen: you are not supposed to run this yourself, bestie. It's not for you. It is spawned by the MPI framework when multi-processing is happening — it's the little worker bee 🐝 that the MPI machine mom sends out, not something you summon from your shell.

It does not process any command-line parameter of its own. It just passes them straight along to MPI_Init(3). Like, "not my business, take it up with MPI." 💅

Also super important: gyoto-mpi-worker is bound to a specific version of the Gyoto application binary interface (ABI). Which is a fancy way of saying she's committed, she's loyal, she does not do cross-version chaos. And because the Gyoto library wants to let several versions of itself be co-installed at the same time (iconic, honestly), the SO information digits get appended to the executable name. That's the SOVERS in gyoto-mpi-worker.SOVERS. It's literally her version badge, sewn onto her jacket. 🧚
