- ``my_hostfile.txt`` is a classical MPI hostfile (that is, this file
lists the machines on which the processes must be dispatched, one
- per line)
+ per line). Using the ``hostname:num_procs`` syntax will deploy num_procs
+ MPI processes on the host, sharing available cores (equivalent to listing
+ the same host num_procs times on different lines).
- ``my_platform.xml`` is a classical SimGrid platform file. Of course,
the hosts of the hostfile must exist in the provided platform.
- ``./program`` is the MPI program to simulate, that you compiled with ``smpicc``
You can switch the automatic selector through the
``smpi/coll-selector`` configuration item. Possible values:
- - **ompi:** default selection logic of OpenMPI (version 3.1.2)
+ - **ompi:** default selection logic of OpenMPI (version 4.1.2)
- **mpich**: default selection logic of MPICH (version 3.3b)
- **mvapich2**: selection logic of MVAPICH2 (version 1.9) tuned
on the Stampede cluster
``impi``: use intel mpi selector for the scatter operations. |br|
``automatic (experimental)``: use an automatic self-benchmarking algorithm. |br|
``ompi_basic_linear``: basic linear scatter. |br|
+``ompi_linear_nb``: linear scatter, non blocking sends. |br|
``ompi_binomial``: binomial tree scatter. |br|
``mvapich2_two_level_direct``: SMP aware algorithm, with an intra-node stage (default set to mpich selector), and then a basic linear inter node stage. Use mvapich2 selector to change these to tuned algorithms for Stampede cluster. |br|
``mvapich2_two_level_binomial``: SMP aware algorithm, with an intra-node stage (default set to mpich selector), and then a binomial phase. Use mvapich2 selector to change these to tuned algorithms for Stampede cluster. |br|
``automatic (experimental)``: use an automatic self-benchmarking algorithm. |br|
``ompi_basic_recursivehalving``: recursive halving version from OpenMPI. |br|
``ompi_ring``: ring version from OpenMPI. |br|
+``ompi_butterfly``: butterfly version from OpenMPI. |br|
``mpich_pair``: pairwise exchange version from MPICH. |br|
``mpich_rdb``: recursive doubling version from MPICH. |br|
``mpich_noncomm``: only works for power of 2 procs, recursive doubling for noncommutative ops. |br|
