"""
Gather tensors from all participators.
Args:
tensor (Tensor): The input Tensor. Its data type
should be float16, float32, float64, int32, int64, int8, uint8, bool or bfloat16.
gather_list (list): A list of Tensors to hold the gathered tensors. Every element in the list must be a Tensor whose data type
should be float16, float32, float64, int32, int64, int8, uint8, bool or bfloat16. Default value is None.
dst (int): The dst rank id. Default value is 0.
group (Group, optional): The group instance return by new_group or None for global default group.
sync_op (bool, optional): Whether this op is a sync op. The default value is True.
Returns:
Async work handle,which can be wait on, if async_op is set to True.
None, if not async_op
Examples:
.. code-block:: pycon
>>> # doctest: +REQUIRES(env: DISTRIBUTED)
>>> import paddle
>>> import paddle.distributed as dist
>>> dist.init_parallel_env()
>>> gather_list = [] # type: ignore
>>> if dist.get_rank() == 0:
... data = paddle.to_tensor([1, 2, 3])
... dist.gather(data, gather_list, dst=0)
>>> else:
... data = paddle.to_tensor([4, 5, 6])
... dist.gather(data, gather_list, dst=0)
>>> print(gather_list)
>>> # [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]] (2 GPUs, out for rank 0)
>>> # [] (2 GPUs, out for rank 1)
