 *                             `sendcount` parameter.
 *
 *              `send_type` - The MPI Datatype of the elements in the send
 *                            buffer. Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's
 *                            `sendtype` parameter.
 *
 *              `recv_counts` - An array containing the number of elements
 *                              to be received from each MPI rank.
 *                              Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's `recvcount`
 *                              parameter.
 *
 *              `displacements` - An array containing the displacements
 *                                in the receive buffer where data from
 *                                each MPI rank should be placed. Analogous
 *                                to MPI_(All)gatherv's `displs` parameter.
 *
 *              `recv_type` - The MPI Datatype of the elements in the

 *                            MPI_Gatherv (FALSE).
 *
 *              `root` - For MPI_Gatherv operations, specifies the rank
 *                       that will receive the data sent by other ranks.
 *                       Analogous to MPI_Gatherv's `root` parameter. For

 *                       Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's `comm` parameter.
 *
 *              `mpi_rank` - Specifies the calling rank's rank value, as
 *                           obtained by calling MPI_Comm_rank on the
 *                           MPI Communicator `comm`.
 *

 *                          MPI_Allgatherv operations.
 *
 *              `out_buf_num_entries` - The number of elements in the
