[OMPI users] Newbie: API usage

2008-08-15 Thread Hartzman, Les (MS)
Hello, I'm looking over some MPI code and saw something that concerned me. Being a bit new to MPI I don't know if this is a bug or "normal'. A call to MPI_Isend was made and followed by an MPI_Reqest_free on the exact same request handle used in the Isend call. I saw the same thing for ISsend.

Hello Tim and list Having been listening and participating on this interesting thread from the very beginning, I would like to add another two cents. I don't oppose moving the specific discussion of OpenMPI memcpy implementation to the developers' list. I am not a developer (or qualified to

A number of distributors provide pre-compiled Open-MPI packages, so one doesn't need to go to the trouble of compiling it. For example, on Debian GNU/Linux, Dirk Eddelbuettel has led a packaging effort such that "apt-get install libopenmpi-dev openmpi-bin" (or the equivalent from aptitude or synap

Hi, Can you give more info about the compilation steps, I just recompiled it (using the internal stuff except for fftw) and was able to run an example (output below). Did I miss something ? I recompiled / ran on a Platform OCS 5 cluster (based on RHEL 5), with IB support (OFED) Partial

Hi Terry (and others), I have previously explored this some on Linux/X86-64 and concluded that Open MPI needs to supply it's own memcpy routine to get good sm performance, since the memcpy supplied by glibc is not even close to optimal. We have an unused MCA framework already set up to supply an op
