Re: [OMPI devel] dropping a pls module into an Open MPI build

One thing you might check if you suspect compiler alignment issues is running "ompi_info --all" and see what Apple used to configure/build OMPI. We save the CFLAGS and whatnot; they may be helpful to you...? I see on my MBP/Leopard 10.5.1, for example: C compiler absolute: /usr/bin/gcc

Appreciate the clarification. I am unaware of anyone attempting that procedure in the past, but I'm not terribly surprised to hear it would encounter problems and/or fail. Given the myriad of configuration options in the code base, it would seem almost miraculous that you could either (a) hit the s

I'm sorry, but now I am totally confused. Are you saying that you are having problems with the default rsh component in the distributed 1.2.3 code?? Yes ... Or are you having a problem with your customized version? and yes. Each exhibited the same problem, a bus error. What compiler are

Hi All, I think I have a possible explanation for this problem. Previously orterun was jumping to 0x: [Rotarran-X-5:04475] Failing at address: 0x0 [ 1] [0xb828, 0x] (-P-) On a hunch I tried changing the number of bool's in the orte_pls_rsh_component_t data structure

Hi Dean Had to ponder this for awhile. I'm not entirely sure of the source of the problem, but one suspicion has to do with the name of the module. Open MPI ships with a module named "rsh" in the PLS framework. The MCA uses the module name in its loading process. If you insert another module with

Which source checkout did you use? Note that the pls structures have likely changed between the OMPI SVN trunk and the v1.2 branch. Hmm -- are you saying that you tried compiling the Apple copy of the rsh pls and/or the OMPI SVN v1.2.3 rsh pls and neither of them worked? Yes, I tried both

Hello, I'm developing an mca_pls module, intending to drop it into a preexisting Open MPI build (in its lib/openmpi directory) and have orterun pick it up, but orterun kept crashing on me even though it correctly calls my module. To help isolate the issue I separately recompiled the mca_
