There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thanks for the contribution @fallintoplace! I've left a comment to address but otherwise this looks good. Definitely covering a rare edge case, but better to catch this user error than not.

Summary
Reject negative
pdimsvalues during grid descriptor validation before checking the process-grid product.Previously,
checkConfigonly used product semantics for explicit process grids, so a configuration such as[-2, -2]could pass on four ranks. The later process-grid indexing code assumes positive dimensions for division, modulo, communicator setup, and pencil decomposition.This also widens the product calculation to
int64_tso validation does not overflow before comparing with the rank count.Tests
git diff --checkpdimspairs whose product equals the test rank countLocal build/test execution was not available in this checkout because
clang-format,nvcc, andmpicxxare not installed.
