Is it

1) 3 pairs of functions for each two faced collective

start_non_collective_foo
end_collective_foo

start_collective_foo
end_non_collective_foo

start_collective_foo
end_collective_foo

******
Can somebody explain to me what is the intended implementation of these 3
options, on a message-passing (distributed memory) machine, e.g., for
barrier?
