Re: [OMPI devel] RFC: enable the use of source in platform files

2012-07-09 Thread Ralph Castain
I keep scratching my head over this, and I just cannot figure out how this is going to do what you think. We "source" the platform file solely to execute any envar settings that are in it - i.e., to capture the CFLAGS=... and other such directives. We then read/parse the platform file to get

This is what was missing from your RFC - a simple explanation other than a one-line "How" or "Why". I know it takes five minutes to be more descriptive, but you've been getting awfully terse lately with these proposals. Now that you have explained it, I have no objections. On Jul 9, 2012, at

So if I understand this right, you would have multiple platform files, each "sourcing" a common one that contains the base directives? It sounds to me like you need more than the change below to make that work - you would need to interpret the platform file itself to read and execute a "source"

LANL's platform file's (for a particular platform) are 90% the same. By allowing a source directive those settings can be kept in a common file then sourced by the platform file. When something changes I wouldn't have to change a dozen files only a couple. -Nathan On Mon, Jul 09, 2012 at

Ok, some basic non-blocking tests should be in now, including mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08 versions -- see r26768 in ompi-tests. They're not great tests -- it would be wonderful if someone would write some better ones. :-) But they at least verify basic functionality. (and they did find

We had just recently bumped up the Autotools triple used to create the trunk and v1.7 tarballs to include Automake 1.12.1. Due to the notice below, I have bumped it up to 1.12.2. Nightly tarballs starting tonight will use this new version. I have also patched the Automake that is being used

[OMPI devel] Opal wrappers question

2012-07-09 Thread Nathan Hjelm
I am playing with the Open MPI wrappers and had a couple of questions: - If an argument is used to select a section (compiler_args) is that option supposed to be passed to the compiler (because it is)? - If the above is the intended behavior is there any objection to an additional wrapper

I am running into similar issues with both Mellanox and IBM HCAs. On a node installed with RHEL6.2 and MLNX_OFED-1.5.3-3.0.0, there is a significant hit to locked memory when going with the device's max_cqe. Here, for comparison's sake is the memory utilization for a simple MPI process when using

Ah, not quite. All those non-blocking collective tests (including the Fortran) weren't quite finished because I wrote them because libnbc hadn't been slurped in yet. Thanks for reminding me -- I'll go finish them now... On Jul 6, 2012, at 6:35 PM, Eugene Loh wrote: > I assume this is an
