#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never out of date.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.

This pragma simd-vectorizes a loop. It is part of OpenMP 4.0.
Unfortunately, not all compilers support it. We need to add an autoconf
rule.

#1711: Tests using ADMConstraints should be converted to use ML_ADMConstraints

In May 2014, ADMConstraints was removed from the ET thornlist. However,
we have many tests which use this thorn, and they now cannot run. These
tests were not just designed to test this thorn, they test other
functionality as well. Looking at the test log file from Jenkins, I see
the following tests which are skipped solely due to ADMConstraints being
missing:
{{{

}}}
I have removed ADMConstraints from the WeylScal4 tests, as it wasn't being
used there, but the other tests probably do make use of it, and need to be
ported to ML_ADMConstraints. We should add an item to the list of "things
to do when deprecating a thorn", so that we fix the tests using that thorn
before removing it.

#1715: Add Jenkins configuration for build of all external libraries

It would be useful to have Jenkins also test a build of all external
libraries, in addition to one which uses as many system libraries as
possible. This does not necessarily have to run as often, but could if it
does not burden the slaves too much (both CPU and space might be an
issue).

#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.

#727: Test output changes every time some tests are run
-----------------------------------------------------------+----------------
Reporter: hinder | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version:
Keywords: testsuites QuasiLocalMeasures IDAxiOddBrillBH |
-----------------------------------------------------------+----------------
Each time a new run of the test suites is performed, the test output of
IDAxiOddBrillBH and QuasiLocalMeasures changes a little. These changes
are below the tolerances set in the test.ccl files, so the tests pass, but
there should be no change at all when the tests are run on the same
machine.
An example of the difference from one test run to the next is shown at
http://git.barrywardell.net/EinsteinToolkitTestResults.git/blobdiff/95fe088….
Another example, from QuasiLocalMeasures, is at
http://git.barrywardell.net/EinsteinToolkitTestResults.git/blobdiff/95fe088…
/qlm-ks-shifted/admbase::metric.average.asc.
The only thorns to exhibit this behaviour are IDAxiOddBrillBH and
QuasiLocalMeasures. All other test data remains unchanged from one test
run to the next. Note that the two test runs will be performed with
different executables, since a new configuration is created for each run.
I think I remember testing that simply re-running the same executable
resulted in the same test output.
Is it possible that there are a small number of points which access
uninitialised memory which changes on each run for these thorns?

#582: Semi-automatically split McLachlan's calculations
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
Reporter: eschnett | Owner:

Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version:
Keywords: |
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
Split McLachlan's calculations semi-automatically in two ways: (a) by
variable, so that e.g. dot[g] and dot[K] are calculated separately, and
(b) by pattern, so that advection terms, dissipation, and "everything
else" are calculated separately. Also introduce parameters to choose which
routines are called at run time.
This is somewhat a work in progress, in that the patch is good, but the
API defined to split kernels is more complex and less failsafe than it
should be.
