Meeting minutes for 2023-10-05
by Leo Rosa Werneck 05 Oct '23

05 Oct '23

Dear all, Here are today’s minutes. Chair : Peter Minutes : Leo Present : Zach, Steve, Sam, Roland, Peter, Leo Release: - Sam: every time a new thorn is added to the thornlist for checkout, the CI testing does not get that thorn, and so Roland or Steve has to manually update the CI. Steve: there are instructions on how to do it somewhere. - SGRID: Liwei is reviewing. - Sam pushed an update to the CarpetX thorns in GRHayL. GRHayL functions still lack the proper declaration of device functions in them, but Sam and Leo will work on that in the near future. - Steve suggests that maybe the CarpetX thorns in GRHayL should be included in the next release instead, as they have not been shown to run on GPUs. Roland said that as long as the code compiles on a GPU build, it should be fine; having GPU support is not a requirement for inclusion. Steve says that even if we get everything compiled and properly declared, it likely that benchmark tests won't have been run, and that is something that we might want done before inclusion. - Seed_Magnetic_Fields: Zach sent a review to Sam. - CarpetX: Steve found some issues, but now has a working cfg file for Deep Bayou, which may be useful for other systems. Unanswered questions on mailing list: - Extract thorn issue: likely needs to activate additional time levels, change the prolongation type, or simply request the output to be generated only when all time levels are aligned. Leo responded. Next chair : Steve Next Minutes : Roland Chair/minutes rotation list, taking effect next week. .---------.--------.---------. | Date | Chair | Minutes | .---------.--------.---------. | 10-12-23 | Steve | Roland | | 10-19-23 | Peter | Steve | | 10-26-23 | Roland | Sam | | 11-02-23 | Sam | Leo | | 11-09-23 | Leo | Roland | | 11-16-23 | Zach | Steve | | ... | ... | ... | .---------.--------.---------.

Dear Tomas, It sounds like what is happening is that the grid function in question only has 1 time level, but multiple active refinement levels. Because of sub cycling in time, not all refinement levels will be at the same cctk_time during a simulation. Therefore, if you request, for example, output_every = 1, then the toolkit tries to perform time interpolations when outputting the data (I think). Since the grid function only has 1 time level active, the toolkit can’t do that for the interpolation method selected (likely some default parameter in the thorn), hence the error. The easiest, and likely most useful, way to fix this is to only output data when all time levels are aligned. For example, you can achieve this by requesting to output the data on iterations that are multiple of 2^(max_refinement_levels). Alternatively, you can look at the param.ccl file of the Extract thorn and see if there a way to change the number of active time levels. Hope this helps! Cheers, Leo ------ Leonardo R.

thorn Extract
by Tomas Andrade 02 Oct '23

02 Oct '23

Hi all, I'm trying to use the thorn Extract, but I'm encountering an issue with prolongation in Carpet. I can use it successfully (i.e. getting the output files .ul, .tl) with the provided test parfile in repos/einsteinanalysis/Extract/test/qc0-mclachlan.par However this has CarpetRegrid2::num_levels_1 = 1 CarpetRegrid2::num_levels_2 = 1 which is not very useful. If I try to increase the levels to say CarpetRegrid2::num_levels_1 = 2 CarpetRegrid2::num_levels_2 = 2 I get the error ERROR from host lhcb02.icc.ub.edu process 0 while executing schedule bin CCTK_POSTSTEP, routine Extract::Extract in thorn CarpetLib, file /home/tandrade/Cactus/configs/sim/build/CarpetLib/ggf.cc:376: * -> The variable "EXTRACT::temp3d" has only 1 active time levels, which is not enough for boundary prolongation of order 2 * Similarly, if I activate the thorn and request the output using other parfiles for binary black holes, I get a similar warning (not error) and the code produces no output. any advice? thank you!
