The use of
long double
is currently not supported in device code which led us to only providelong double
overloads of the math functions when none of the GPU backend was enabled. In reality, we can and probably should define them on the host side regardless of how Kokkos was configured.For reference, we had considered doing this when we initially implemented the math functions but decided we would deal with it later as needed. I am proposing to do it now because I realized KokkosKernels will need it when refactoring their arithmetic traits.
