[Einstein Toolkit] #374: CactusNumeric/Slab: Improve performance

#374: CactusNumeric/Slab: Improve performance -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- The attached patch does the following, prompted by performance problems reported by Christian Ott: Reorganise some of the internals of thorn Slab: Use LoopControl to parallelise loops via OpenMP. Refactor the "work horse" routines that perform the actual copy routines. These routines are specialised for common cases that need to execute efficiently, in particular for the cases encountered in RotatingSymmetry90 and RotatingSymmetry180 when handling CCTK_REAL variables. Offer an additional API (Slab_MultiTransfer_Init, Slab_MultiTransfer_Apply, Slab_MultiTransfer_Finalize) that calculates the communication schedule only once, and then re-uses it in further calls. This avoids some communication overhead. Remove old CVS header comments. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/374> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #427: Cannot update manifest to Mercurial version of Carpet

#427: Cannot update manifest to Mercurial version of Carpet ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: eschnett | Owner: eric9 Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: Component: GetComponents | Version: Keywords: | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ I updated my manifest to using the Mercurial version of Carpet. Since I was using this version before, there was no change except that there is now also an anonymous url available. When I try to update, I receive the error message that the repo url changed, although it did not change at all. My repo configuration was before: # Carpet, the AMR driver !TARGET = $ARR !TYPE = git !AUTH_URL = carpetgit@carpetcode.org:carpet !URL = git://carpetcode.org/carpet # For experimental version, comment previous three lines and uncomment next two # Note that you will need to get access first (ask Erik Schnetter) !TYPE = hg !URL = ssh://carpetmercurial@carpetcode.org/carpet It is now: # Carpet, the AMR driver !TARGET = $ARR !TYPE = hg !AUTH_URL = ssh://carpetmercurial@carpetcode.org/carpet !URL = http://www.carpetcode.org/hg/carpet # For the git version of Carpet, comment the previous three lines and # uncomment the next three #!TYPE = git #!AUTH_URL = carpetgit@carpetcode.org:carpet #!URL = git://carpetcode.org/carpet In particular, the url did not change, but it moved from URL to AUTH_URL, while the URL method is now new. The url required authorization all along, but since GetComponents does not support having an AUTH_URL without having a URL, it was given as URL. When I give the command $ ./bin/GetComponents --update --root=. manifest/einsteintoolkit.th I receive the error message: Error: The URL for Carpet/doc has changed, please perform a clean checkout. Note that I don't use (and I think I never did use) the -a flag for GetComponents. I checked the repository, and the current url is the same as in the manifest: $ (cd repos/carpet; hg showconfig paths.default) ssh://carpetmercurial@carpetcode.org/carpet Where does GetComponents store the previous url? How can I make it believe that my repo url did not actually change? Is this connected with switching from an anonymous to an authorized checkout? If so, how do I make this switch "officially"? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/427> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #426: Fortran module files should not go into scratch directory

#426: Fortran module files should not go into scratch directory ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- The Cactus build system currently cds into the configuration's scratch directory before compiling any file, and accumulates all Fortran module (.mod) files there. This results in a very large directory, and does not separate thorns from each other. This also makes it difficult to delete all built files from a single thorn, which is often convenient for debugging. Instead, Fortran module files should be written into the thorn's object directory. Cactus should then set the Fortran include path correctly so that other thorns' module files are found, if this thorn declared the dependency onto the other thorns. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/426> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit

[Einstein Toolkit] #363: Make TimerReport output average/min/max timings to stdout, instead of timings from the root process

#363: Make TimerReport output average/min/max timings to stdout, instead of timings from the root process ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: eschnett | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Cactus | Version: Keywords: | ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- The n_top_timers feature of TimerReport outputs timings from the root process only to stdout, greatly confusing people. It should instead output average (or min/max) timings over all processes. One common problem is a routine that contains communication, and which thus has to wait until all processes arrive there. If previous routines show a load imbalance, then outputting timings only from the root process make this routine look very slow, although this routine really only has to wait for other processes finish their previous calculations. Since this is a common case, it makes the current timing output useless for all routines involving communication. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/363> Einstein Toolkit <http://einsteintoolkit.org> The Einstein Toolkit
