Hi, I noticed that when I compile PETSc/HYPRE with GPU support, it demands that I use GPU vectors/matrices (in the form of either VECCUDA/MATMPIAIJCUSPARSE, VECHIP/MATMPIAIJHIPSPARSE, or VECKOKKOS/MATMPIAIJKOKKOS). However, I would like to do some comparisons/tuning vs. CPU solvers for my particular application, and when I try to pass in regular CPU vectors/sparse matrices, PETSc complains:
[0]PETSC ERROR: Invalid argument [0]PETSC ERROR: HYPRE_MEMORY_DEVICE expects a device vector. You need to enable PETSc device support, for example, in some cases, -vec_type cuda [0]PETSC ERROR: See https://petsc.org/release/faq/ for trouble shooting.

I was also wondering if the base PETSc KSP solvers use any kind of GPU acceleration, and if this is configurable at runtime. I tried solving a 2D poisson system, and whether I allocated CPU or GPU vectors the KSP solver will complete in roughly the same non-trivial amount of time, which makes me suspect that either it is never being solved on the GPU or is always solved on the GPU since I'm only using a single CPU core. This is with PETSC compiled with CUDA/Kokkos support.
