Reuse the NCCL-compatible collective implementation with DTK RCCL on Hygon devices. Select the native RCCL header to avoid CUDA/HIP type conflicts and register Hygon as a supported backend-device combination.

Summary

Enable Hygon DCUs to use InfiniCCL's existing NCCL-compatible collective backend through DTK RCCL. This PR registers the kNccl/kHygon combination, selects native RCCL headers for Hygon builds to avoid CUDA/HIP type conflicts, and documents the supported configuration.

  • Hygon backend integration

    • Register BackendType::kNccl with Device::Type::kHygon.
    • Add the Hygon CclApi specialization that reuses the existing NCCL-compatible collective implementation.
  • NCCL/RCCL compatibility

    • Select <rccl/rccl.h> for Hygon builds and retain <nccl.h> for NVIDIA and Iluvatar builds.
    • Recognize RCCL bfloat16 support in the NCCL-compatible data type mapping.
  • Build and documentation

    • Allow WITH_HYGON=ON to be combined with WITH_NCCL=ON and linked against DTK RCCL.
    • Document RCCL support for Hygon in README.md.

Checklist

Every contributor must verify every item below before requesting
review. Tick each box only after the check has actually been performed —
do not tick speculatively. If an item truly does not apply, replace the
checkbox with N/A and briefly explain why in an inline comment.

Title, Branch, and Commits

  • PR title follows Conventional Commits (e.g. feat: …, fix(nccl): …).
  • Branch name follows <type>/xxx-yyyy-zzzz where <type> matches the PR title's Conventional Commits type and words are joined with hyphens (see CONTRIBUTING.md §Branches).
  • Each commit message follows Conventional Commits.
  • Small PR is a single squashable commit; or, for a large PR, every commit is meaningful, well-formed, and independently reviewable (see CONTRIBUTING.md §Pull Requests).
  • No stray merge commits from master — the branch is rebased cleanly on top of the current master.
  • No fixup! / squash! / wip commits remain.

Scope and Design

  • Changes are minimal — no unrelated modifications were introduced (CONTRIBUTING.md §Code/General).
  • No dead code, commented-out blocks, debug prints, printf/std::cout/print(...) left behind, or TODO without an owner and issue link.
  • No unrelated formatting churn that would obscure the diff.
  • Public API changes (if any) are intentional, documented, and reflected in affected callers/tests.

General Code Hygiene

  • The code is self-explanatory; comments were added only where the intent or rationale is non-obvious (CONTRIBUTING.md §Code/General).
  • Every modified or added file ends with a single trailing newline (CONTRIBUTING.md §Code/General).
  • No trailing whitespace, inconsistent indentation, or mixed formatting styles remain.
  • Identifiers referenced in comments or error messages are wrapped in Markdown backticks (e.g. the `AllReduce` implementation) (CONTRIBUTING.md §Code/General).
  • All comments and error messages are in English (CONTRIBUTING.md §Code/General).
  • Comments and error messages are complete sentences — capitalized first letter, terminal punctuation — unless the language/framework convention says otherwise (CONTRIBUTING.md §Code/General; §Python).

C++ Specific (if C++ files changed)

  • Code follows the Google C++ Style Guide strictly.
  • clang-format (version 16, per .github/workflows/clang-format.yml) has been run against all modified applicable files; the diff is clean.
  • No exceptions are thrown. Error paths use assert with messages that include at least __FILE__, __LINE__, and __func__ (CONTRIBUTING.md §C++).
  • Error and warning message wording follows the LLVM Coding Standards (CONTRIBUTING.md §C++).
  • Constructor initializer list order matches member declaration order (CONTRIBUTING.md §C++).
  • Exactly one blank line between classes, between classes and functions, and between functions (CONTRIBUTING.md §C++).
  • Exactly one blank line between members (functions and variables) within a class (CONTRIBUTING.md §C++).
  • Exactly one blank line before and after the contents of a namespace (CONTRIBUTING.md §C++).

Python Specific (if Python files changed)

  • Code is PEP 8 compliant; ruff check passes cleanly on CI (see .github/workflows/ruff.yml).
  • ruff format --check passes cleanly — if not, run ruff format and commit the result.
  • Comments are complete English sentences, starting with a capital letter and ending with punctuation; Markdown backticks are used for code references (CONTRIBUTING.md §Python).
  • Framework-specific conventions (e.g. lowercase pytest.skip messages without terminal period) are honored where applicable (CONTRIBUTING.md §Python).
  • No blank line between the function signature and the body when there is no docstring or comment (CONTRIBUTING.md §Python).
  • A blank line is present before and after if, for, and similar control-flow statements (CONTRIBUTING.md §Python).
  • A blank line appears before each return, except when it directly follows a control-flow statement (CONTRIBUTING.md §Python).
  • Docstrings (if any) follow PEP 257 (CONTRIBUTING.md §Python).
  • Type hints are added / kept consistent with the surrounding code.

Testing

  • All applicable example programs have been built and tested successfully on at least one supported heterogeneous cluster setup.

Build, CI, and Tooling

  • New backends or devices have been added to auto-detection in CMakeLists.txt under if(AUTO_DETECT_DEVICES) or to if(AUTO_DETECT_BACKENDS) if applicable.
  • Both CI workflows (clang-format.yml, ruff.yml) are green locally (or expected to be green on CI).

Documentation

  • README.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, or inline docs updated when behavior, build flags, or developer workflow changed.
  • Any user-visible breaking change is called out explicitly under "Summary" and in the commit/PR title with a ! or BREAKING CHANGE: footer.

Security and Safety

  • No secrets, access tokens, internal URLs, customer data, or personal hardware identifiers have been committed.
  • Third-party code is license-compatible and attributed.
  • No unsafe pointer arithmetic, uninitialized reads, or missing bounds checks were introduced.

Reuse the NCCL-compatible collective implementation with DTK RCCL on Hygon devices. Select the native RCCL header to avoid CUDA/HIP type conflicts and register Hygon as a supported backend-device combination.
