Hello, I am trying to port GROMACS 3.3.1 to the CRAY XT3, which is essentially an Opteron machine with the PGI compilers. I can get everything to compile, but when I run mdrun, I am “randomly” getting segmentation faults. This seems to happen no matter what input file I use. It happens in init_forcerec (line 1001), in add_gbond, and in solvent_check. Some times it runs fine. I am configuring with the following command:

./configure --with-fft=fftw3 --disable-nice --enable-mpi --program-suffix="_xt3" --enable-float --with-external-blas --with-external-lapack --disable-threads --prefix=/usr/local/packages/gromacs-3.3.1

I am wondering if anyone else has seen these types of problems and knows how to fix them. I have tried compiling the code without optimization, to no avail.

Thanks in advance,

Shawn



Hi Shawn, last time I tested the PGI compiler gave at most equal performance as the gcc compilers. I presume you could try compiling with gcc.

From your mail it is not clear whether the problems occurs in parallel or in sequential execution of mdrun. Anyway it is of course difficult to debug remotely, e.g. line 1001 is force.c does not look very suspect.
