I don't know the reasoning for requiring --with-cma to enable CMA but I
am looking at auto-detecting CMA instead of requiring Open MPI to be
configured with --with-cma. This will likely go into the 1.9 release
series and not 1.8.

Maybe it is a stupid question, but... why it is not tested and enabled
by default at configure time since it is part of the kernel?

Aurélien, I should also point out your fix has already been applied to
the 1.8 branch and will be included in 1.8.5.

Hmm, wait. Yes. Your change went in after 1.8.4 and has the same
effect. If yama ins't installed it is safe to assume that the ptrace
scope is effectively 0. So, your patch does fix the issue.

I don't think that will fix this issue. In this case yama is not
installed and it appears PR_SET_PTRACER is not available. This forces
vader to assume that CMA can not be used when that isn't always the
case. I think it might be safe to assume that CMA is unrestricted here.

Nathan,
I think I already pushed a patch for this particular issue last month. I do not
know if it has been back ported to release yet.

cool, thanks again!
You might also look at using xpmem. You can find a version that supports

Other question: In addition to "--with-cma" configure flag, do we have
to pass
If you have yama installed you can try:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
as root.

By the way,
I have tried two others things:
#1- I launched it as root:
mpiexec --mca mca_btl_vader_single_copy_mechanism cma
--allow-run-as-root -np 2 ./hw

Ok, I tried it, but it gives exactly the same error message!
