#743: CarpetIOHDF5 should use c++ compiler options for c++ compiler
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: knarf | Owner: eschnett
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: ET_2012_05
Component: Carpet | Version: development version

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Currently CarpetIOHDF5 uses the c compiler options with the c++ compiler
to build the utilities. This can lead to warnings about flags not
supported by c++ (only by c).
The attached patch let's it use the c++ compiler options instead.

#741: Support function READS and WRITES statements in schedule.ccl files

As part of the work on the dependency-based scheduler
(https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-
docs/Adding_requirements_to_the_Cactus_scheduler) and also for writing
code for non-CPU compute devices (GPUs), it is very useful to have
available information about which variables are read from and written to
by a scheduled Cactus function. There is a branch of the flesh
(NewSchedule) on which this support has been implemented. The
application-thorn writer adds READS: <vars> and WRITES: <vars> statements
in the schedule definition of each function. This should be 100%
backwards compatible. For convenience, a diff between the current trunk
and the NewSchedule branch is attached.
OK to merge into the flesh trunk?

#740: Carpet commit c8eecbe1968f breaks gcc compilation

I get the following fatal error when compiling the latest development ET,
fresh checkout, with gcc 4.6.
{{{
#!div style="font-size: 70%"

I tracked it down to Carpet commit c8eecbe1968f (11. Jan). Is somebody
hiding a patch with a constructor or is there another fix?

#617: Norm of NxNx1 grid gives poison in new version of Carpet
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Reporter: hinder | Owner: eschnett
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Carpet | Version:
Keywords: regression |
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
I am having a problem with a 2D Carpet unigrid simulation with NxNx1 grid
points in each direction. I have 0 boundary points and 0 ghost points in
the z direction. The norm2 and other norms computed by CarpetIOBasic and
CarpetIOScalar are showing poison. The same happens if I use one boundary
point and one ghost point. The important feature is that zmin = zmax. If
I make zmax = zmin + dz, then the norms are fine. This works fine in the
git version of Carpet - it seems to be a regression in the Mercurial
version.
Parameter file is attached.

#739: The Cactus teststuite scripts don't understand comments in ActiveThorns-

At the moment Cactus testsuite script don't understand commends in
ActiveThorns-lines. This is not critical, but still surprising to find
that this way Cactus does not consider to run a test case which otherwise
should.

#738: use catch/throw in LORENE ID thorns to report file-open failures
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
Reporter: rhaas | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version:
Keywords: |
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
the LORENE classes Bin_NS/Bin_BH/Mag_NS do not check for errors in fopen
and simply pass the returned file hanlde to fread. If one enters the wrong
filename in parameter files this causes a segfault. The attached patches
add a patch to ExternalLibraries/LORENE to check for the error condition
and throw ios_base::failure(sterror(errno)) upon error. The ID thorns
catch this exception.
My main questions is whether we are happy with this kind of error handling
using C++ exceptions (which requires very little code change) or would
rather have the LORENE classes themselves spit out the error message (and
abort()). Notice that the error happens in a constructor so I cannot
simply return an error code from the LORENE function.

#735: provide names for spherical surfaces

Reporter: rhaas | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Other | Version:
Keywords: |

the attached set of patches provide a simple function
{{{
sf_IdFromName(CCTK_INT id, CCTK_STRING name)
}}}
(and similar for Fortran) as well as changes for AHFinderDirect,
QuasiLocalMeasures and SetMask_SphericalSurface to use it.
The code compiles and passes the testsuites for QLM and AHFinderDirect
(testing both with ids by name and by number).
If this code is roughly in concordance with how this ought-to-be-done in
Cactus, then please apply (I have commit rights to QLM and AHFinderDirect
only but not SphericalSurface and SetMask_SphericalSurface).

#736: Output global load imbalance
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: eschnett | Owner: eschnett

Component: Carpet | Version:
Keywords: |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Make Carpet output the global load imbalance, i.e. the total amount of
time a process is spending in MPI_Waitall etc. Make this easy to display
or graph, and produce one-line output that is easy to understand.
The rationale is: determining load imbalance per routine leads to a lot of
data. If most of the time is spend in a few routines, then it is very
likely that this global load imbalance information will be useful.
