Sounds like your I/O with MPI is getting redirected to the I/O node
(and hence finding /sys from the Linux kernel there) but when you're
running without MPI it's trying to open files on the compute node and
the CNK isn't presenting the /sys directories, causing it to fall back.
I've run lstopo on our BG/P and I get to see the 4 cores there whether
it's the stock code or if I add an MPI_Init() to the start. The
output from lstopo when built with --enable-debug confirms it's
reporting kernel and hostname info from the I/O node associated with
the block:
Machine#0(Backend=Linux OSName=CNK OSRelease=2.6.16.60-304 OSVersion=1
HostName=r00-m1-n04.pcf.vlsci.unimelb.edu.au Architecture=BGP) [...]
It might be interesting to build something like ls with the BG/Q
compilers to see if you can run it on a compute node to see what /proc
or /sys look like in each case.
cheers,
Chris
