[Einstein Toolkit] #1598: ExternalLibraries/MPI does not auto-detect openmpi on Debian/testing

#1598: ExternalLibraries/MPI does not auto-detect openmpi on Debian/testing -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: development version Keywords: MPI | -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- configure.sh expects to find libmpi.a in $MPI_DIR/lib however Debian no longer delivers a static libmpi.a but only libmpi.so so the tests fails. The fix is likely similar to what HDF5 already does (ie accept any of .a .so .dylib as extensions for libraries). The fix is a bit complex though, so (given that Debian/stable is still fine) this is a reminder for after the release. Explictly specifying MPI_DIR, MPI_INC_DIRS, MPI_LIB_DIRS and MPI_LIBS allows this to be worked around in the current release. For reference, the fragment from HDF5 looks like this: {{{ # We look in these directories DIRS="/usr /usr/local /usr/local/hdf5 /usr/local/packages/hdf5 /usr/local/apps/hdf5 /opt/local ${HOME} ${HOME}/hdf5 c:/packages/hdf5" # look into each directory for dir in $DIRS; do # libraries might have different file extensions for libext in a so dylib; do # libraries can be in /lib or /lib64 for libdir in lib64 lib; do # These files must exist FILES="include/hdf5.h $(for lib in ${HDF5_CXX_LIBS} ${HDF5_FORTRAN_LIBS} ${HDF5_C_LIBS}; do echo ${libdir}/lib${lib}.${libext}; done)" # assume this is the one and check all needed files HDF5_DIR="$dir" for file in $FILES; do # discard this directory if one file was not found if [ ! -r "$dir/$file" ]; then unset HDF5_DIR break fi done # don't look further if all files have been found if [ -n "$HDF5_DIR" ]; then break fi done # don't look further if all files have been found if [ -n "$HDF5_DIR" ]; then break fi done # don't look further if all files have been found if [ -n "$HDF5_DIR" ]; then break fi done }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1598> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

#1075: Test cases with specific number of processes -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Some test cases require a specific number of processes. Instead not running, they should run on that number of processes. This would ensure that all tests execute all the time. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1075> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

Nothing within the toolkit or Cactus still uses these interfaces and system wide installed libraries might not come with it, leading to link failures. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1158> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1388: New thorn MemSpeed

#1388: New thorn MemSpeed -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: development version Keywords: | -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- I have written a thorn MemSpeed, available at <https://svn.einsteintoolkit.org/incoming/MemSpeed>. This thorn is useful for performance tuning. I propose to add it to CactusUtils. From the README: Determine the speed of the CPU, as well as latencies and bandwidths of caches and main memory. These provides ideal, but real-world values against which the performance of other routines can be compared. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1388> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #1483: speed up reading metadata of HDF5 files in visit

#1483: speed up reading metadata of HDF5 files in visit -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: development version Keywords: CarpetHDF5 | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- The attached patch tries to extract as much information about a dataset from the dataset name as possible. Since accessing attributes is slow but the dataset name comes for free this speeds up opening HDF5 files in VisIt drastically (I had a factor of 6 when I measured it quite a while ago). This is certainly not the nicest way of parsing the string, one could think of sequentially looking for "name=value" constructs in the string and acting based on the name rather than just matching against all possible options. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1483> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

#1575: Declare cctkGH as "const cGH*" -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: development version Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- cctkGH is declared as "const cGH*" in several places, but DECLARE_CCTK_ARGUMENTS still declares it only as "cGH*". This should be changed. I checked, and some thorns need updating to deal with this. I propose to make this change after the release. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/1575> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit
