We should move pthreads support to ExternalLibraries (or to the flesh).
I have asked CCT to create the respective repository.

#816: include SphericalHarmonicReconASCII from incoming in PITTNULLCode
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
Reporter: rhaas | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: optional | Milestone:
Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version:

-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
Christian Reisswig provided a copy of SphericalHarmonicReconASCII and
alternative thorn that reads in CCE boundary data (similar
SphericalHarmonicRecon) but supporting a wider variety of input file
formats (HDF5 among them, irrespective of the name).
Used by SpEC and Llama.
There are no docs or test cases as of now. Test data would be welcome
(SpEC, Llama or Cactus provided, I don't think it makes a difference).

#1252: Thorn configuration scripts should not be run if there are missing thorns
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: hinder | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Cactus | Version:
Keywords: |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
If there are thorns present in the thornlist which are not present in the
source tree, Cactus currently displays the corresponding error message,
and then runs the rest of the CST including thorn configuration scripts.
Since these can build large external libraries (e.g. LORENE), it can be a
long time before the user notices that the build has failed. I would
prefer if Cactus aborted before running the CST scripts.

#1211: CarpetIOScalar should write file info for restart files
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: knarf | Owner: eschnett
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Carpet | Version:
Keywords: |
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Currently Carpet doesn't write file info for files created by a restarted
simulation (from a checkpoint, writing into a new file). It should instead
write the header if it created the file - which means it need to check
whether it appends or created the file new.

#997: problem in appending output after recovery
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
Reporter: corvino.giovanni@… | Owner: eschnett

Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: Carpet | Version:
Keywords: |
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
I have a problem in appending output files from Carpet. I used to produce
3d HDF5 output of grid variables
and write the output in the same directory also after recovery from
checkpoint. The new output was automatically
appended to the existing one. Now I am producing h5 output also on 2D
slices but in this case the output is overwritten
so I lost the data for all but the last recovery.

#428: Forbid configuration names ending in -reconfig
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: eschnett | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Cactus | Version:
Keywords: |
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
I accidentally created a Cactus configuration with a name like "sim-
reconfig". This confuses Cactus, because the command "make sim-reconfig"
can then mean either to build the "sim-reconfig" configuration, or to
reconfigure the "sim" configuration.
Cactus should catch and forbid these cases.
This is probably most cleanly handled by using a script instead of a
Makefile to interpret the user commands.

#1039: Web-based documentation should be automatically updated
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Reporter: hinder | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: EinsteinToolkit website | Version:
Keywords: Documentation |
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
We have documentation for Cactus and the ET on their respective websites.
This should be updated automatically when the source is changed, so it is
never out of date. There should be documentation for the current release
as well as the current development version.
There is one technical problem standing in the way of this. The system
should be automated, and it needs to have commit rights to a specific
directory in the SVN repository hosting the files. SVN accounts for CCT
machines tend to be the same as CCT login accounts, so we don't want to
store the username and password. I think the best solution is to create
an SVN account specifically for the documentation build system which is
not tied to a CCT login account. This account would be given commit
access to just the directories necessary.
The "checkout, build doc, commit" script should be kept in version control
somewhere, and a machine should be chosen on which to run it. It could be
run regularly, or just in response to commits.

#791: Output timer tree as XML
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: hinder | Owner: eschnett
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Carpet | Version:
Keywords: |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
The attached patch to Carpet adds a parameter (off by default) which
outputs the timer tree from each process to an XML file in the output
directory at the end of the run. The output looks like this:
{{{
<timer name = "main"> 7.7702
<timer name = "CallFunction"> 0.000241
<timer name = "thorns"> 0.000233
<timer name = "CaKernel_FreeDevMem"> 0.000221
<timer name = "PostCall"> 2e-06 </timer>
<timer name = "PreCall"> 1e-06 </timer>
</timer>
</timer>
</timer>
<timer name = "CarpetStartup"> 0.00982
<timer name = "AllocateGridHierarchy"> 5e-06 </timer>
}}}
An alternative schema would be to have the name and timer value as
subelements; i.e.
{{{
<timer>
<name>main</name>
<value>7.7702</value>
<children>
<timer>
<name>CallFunction</name>
<value<0.000241</name>
...
</timer>
}}}
The <children> tag might not be necessary, but might make it easier to
parse. Having one file per process is not ideal; we would like to add
reductions across processes to give min, max, average, standard deviation
etc, also for the standard output display.
OK to commit as a work-in-progress? We can change the schema later if it
turns out to be easier to deal with.
