| Hello All, TL;DR: valgrind always complains about "Syscall param write(buf) points to uninitialised byte(s)” for a LOT of MPI operations in petsc code, making debugging using valgrind fairly annoying since I have to sort through a ton of unrelated stuff. I have built valgrind from source, used apt install valgrind, apt install valgrind-mpi to no avail. I am using valgrind from docker. Dockerfile is attached below as well. I have been unsuccessfully trying to resolve these local valgrind errors, but I am running out of ideas. Googling the issue has also not provided entirely applicable solutions. Here is an example of the error: $ make -f gmakefile test VALGRIND=1 ... # ==54610== Syscall param write(buf) points to uninitialised byte(s) # ==54610== at 0x6F63317: write (write.c:26) # ==54610== by 0x9056AC9: MPIDI_CH3I_Sock_write (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x9059FCD: MPIDI_CH3_iStartMsg (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x903F298: MPIDI_CH3_EagerContigShortSend (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x9049479: MPID_Send (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8FC9B2A: MPIC_Send (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8F86F2E: MPIR_Bcast_intra_binomial (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8EE204E: MPIR_Bcast_intra_auto (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8EE21F4: MPIR_Bcast_impl (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8F887FB: MPIR_Bcast_intra_smp (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8EE206E: MPIR_Bcast_intra_auto (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8EE21F4: MPIR_Bcast_impl (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x8EE2A6F: PMPI_Bcast (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) # ==54610== by 0x4B377B8: PetscOptionsInsertFile (options.c:525) # ==54610== by 0x4B39291: PetscOptionsInsert (options.c:672) # ==54610== by 0x4B5B1EF: PetscInitialize (pinit.c:996) # ==54610== by 0x10A6BA: main (ex9.c:75) # ==54610== Address 0x1ffeffa944 is on thread 1's stack # ==54610== in frame #3, created by MPIDI_CH3_EagerContigShortSend (???:) # ==54610== Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation # ==54610== at 0x903F200: MPIDI_CH3_EagerContigShortSend (in /usr/local/lib/libmpi.so.12.1.8) There are probably 20 such errors every single time, regardless of what code is being run. I have tried using apt install valgrind, apt install valgrind-mpi, and building valgrind from source: WORKDIR / RUN git clone git://sourceware.org/git/valgrind.git WORKDIR /valgrind RUN git pull RUN ./autogen.sh RUN ./configure --with-mpicc=/usr/local/bin/mpicc RUN make -j 5 RUN make install None of the those approaches lead to these errors disappearing. Perhaps I am missing some funky MPI args? Best regards, Jacob Faibussowitsch (Jacob Fai - booss - oh - vitch) Cell: (312) 694-3391 |
