Add semantic changes chapter entry for bindings errata #806

Closed wesbland closed 1 year ago

wesbland commented 1 year ago

Problem

We discovered that the language bindings in MPI 4.0 were incorrect and decided to make a backward incompatible change to the bindings for MPI_PSEND_INIT and MPI_PRECV_INIT. While we don't normally call out errata changes in the semantic changes chapter, this seems large enough that it should be noted.

Proposal

Add an entry in the semantic changes chapter for https://github.com/mpi-forum/mpi-issues/issues/765

Changes to the Text

See PR

Impact on Implementations

Any implementations that have the incorrect bindings will need to change.

Impact on Users

Any users using the incorrect bindings will need to move to the correct bindings.
