Where to find the clomp_tools

I wrote a CLOMP program beneath Redhat endeavor. The entire OpenMP programs runs effortlessly. A cluster openmp program runs well, if the lock api is not called. On the other hand, when the program reached to kmp_lock_cond_wait, a runtime error determines to be output, and the procedure determine to be terminated. I actually necessitate adding the lock characteristic to my cluster OpenMP program. It seems that kmp_lock_cond_wait is the merely choice for me.

Even though its ease of utilize, OpenMP has failed to gain widespread make use of on large scale systems, basically due to its malfunction to deliver adequate performance. Our experience indicates that the cost of initiating OpenMP regions is basically too high for the desired OpenMP usage scenario of numerous submissions. In this paper, they introduce CLOMP, an innovative benchmark to characterize this aspect of OpenMP implementations precisely. The CLOMP complements the existing EPCC benchmark suite to make available simple, straightforward to understand measurements of OpenMP overheads in the context of submission usage scenarios.

As by means of many OpenMP implementations, there is a highest numeral of OpenMP threads that be able to be used. The maximum numeral of threads exploitable by a Cluster OpenMP program is indomitable by values set in the initialization file. Setting OMP_NUM_THREADS or using omp_set_num_threads() not be able to increase this maximum. The defaulting is 1 thread. If the maximum numeral of threads indomitable by the initialization file is not large sufficient to accommodate the numeral of threads preferred, increase it by increasing values in the kmp_cluster.ini file. The maximum numeral of threads be able to be reduced using the OMP_NUM_THREADS environment unpredictable or the set_omp_num_threads() API call, other than not be able to be increased.

The master thread’s stack size is prohibited by the stack size limit of the shell used to run the program. You be able to create certain and set the shell stack size limit by means of "unlimited -s”. Your program might be using too a great deal stack space. Try situation KMP_STACKSIZE to a larger value (defaulting value is 1 megabyte). This controls the stack size distributed to every thread that is not the master thread.

The files (accessed from side to side C/C++ file descriptors or FORTRAN unit numbers) are not mechanically shared across nodes of a Cluster OpenMP program; every node has its have possession of observation of the file system. Opening a file in a serial region opens it merely on the master node, not on the remote nodes. Consequently, the malfunction is due to attempting to read the file on a remote node without having opened it first. In organize to read the file on the entire nodes; it must be opened on the entire nodes first. One method to do this is to open the file within a parallel region.

Sharable memory is memory distributed in an exceptional part of the program’s address space. Sharable memory has exceptional characteristics that permit changeable stored in it to be shared by multiple threads in a parallel region. A sharable changeable is an unpredictable that resides in sharable memory. Variables accessed by dissimilar processors must be placed in sharable memory. The compiler be able to place a number of variables in sharable memory mechanically, additional than often you must place variables explicitly in sharable memory by means of the sharable directive.

Cluster OpenMP is a system that Ethernet.There as a communication fabric, attached to much swap space should be available on disk for the program on a set of nodes running a program that supports OpenMP. Normal swap space than needed by a Linux program, Cluster OpenMP support to store sharable disk space allotted to different needs.

You might have failed to announce a number of variables sharable, or you might have encompassed an error in your program logic that fails noiselessly on a true shared memory system additional than fails additional drastically by means of Cluster OpenMP. You be supposed to try -clomp-sharable-propagation to locate additional variables that necessitate to be made sharable. If the program tranquil fails, review chapter 7 of the User’s Guide for techniques to locate the rest of the variables that necessitate to be made sharable.
