PR Summary

Sci/Tech Reviewer:
Code Reviewer:

ticket:4630 relocated checks/code-path for constraints on partitions when using MultiGrid within the the partitioners. This is a check that the partitioner (or infrastructure) should not be performing (it's a Gungho Science feature).

The contraints on multigrid are being triggered if the mesh file from which a mesh was read, contained intergrid maps, regardless of whether the application had any interest in multigrid (e.g. Lfric2Lfric re-gridding). This change provides logic for applications to specify whether they are concerned with "Multigrid" constraints.

Ideally, the checks should be relocated to Gungho Science. This change achieves the desired outcome without compounding ticket:4630 complexity.

Code Quality Checklist

  • I have performed a self-review of my own code
  • My code follows the project's style guidelines
  • Comments have been included that aid understanding and enhance the readability of the code
  • My changes generate no new warnings
  • All automated checks in the CI pipeline have completed successfully

Testing

  • I have tested this change locally, using the LFRic Core rose-stem suite
  • If required (e.g. API changes) I have also run the LFRic Apps test suite using this branch
  • If any tests fail (rose-stem or CI) the reason is understood and acceptable (e.g. kgo changes)
  • I have added tests to cover new functionality as appropriate (e.g. system tests, unit tests, etc.)
  • Any new tests have been assigned an appropriate amount of compute resource and have been allocated to an appropriate testing group (i.e. the developer tests are for jobs which use a small amount of compute resource and complete in a matter of minutes)
