[OMPI users] openmpi 1.5 build from rpm fails: --program-prefix now checked in configure

Hi this is to report that building openmpi-1.5 from rpm fails on Linux SLES10sp3 x86_64, due to --program-prefix switch use now checked in configure script delivered with 1.5. rpm is version 4.4.2-43.36.1 rpmbuild --rebuild SRPMS/openmpi-1.5.0.src.rpm --define 'configure_options

Re: [OMPI users] Number of processes and spawn

Hi Ralf ! I saw that the new realease 1.5 is out. I didn't found this fix in the "list of changes", is it present but not mentioned since is a minor fix ? Thank you, Federico 2010/4/1 Ralph Castain > Hi there! > > It will be in the 1.5.0 release, but not 1.4.2 (couldn't backport the fix). >

Re: [OMPI users] Number of processes and spawn

The fix should be there - just didn't get mentioned. Let me know if it isn't and I'll ensure it is in the next one...but I'd be very surprised if it isn't already in there. On Oct 19, 2010, at 3:03 AM, Federico Golfrè Andreasi wrote: > Hi Ralf ! > > I saw that the new realease 1.5 is out. >

Re: [OMPI users] a question about [MPI]IO on systems without network filesystem

As Rob mentions There are three capabilities to consider: 1) The process (or processes) that will do the I/O are members of the file handle's hidden communicator and the call is collective 2)) The process (or processes) that will do the I/O are members of the file handle's hidden communicator

[OMPI users] Open MPI dynamic data structure error

Hi, I need to design a data structure to transfer data between nodes on Open MPI system. Some elements of the the structure has dynamic size. For example, typedef struct{ double data1;vector dataVec; } myDataType; The size of the dataVec depends on some intermidiate computing results. If I o

Re: [OMPI users] openmpi 1.5 build from rpm fails: --program-prefix now checked in configure

Thanks for the report. Someone reported pretty much the same issue to me off-list a few days ago for RHEL5. It looks like RHEL5 / 6 ship with Autoconf 2.63, and have a /usr/lib/rpm/macros that defines %configure to include options such as --program-suffix. We bootstrapped Open MPI v1.5 with

Re: [OMPI users] my leak or OpenMPI's leak?

yes, sorry. I did mean 1.5. In my case, going back to 1.43 solved my oom problem. On Sun, Oct 17, 2010 at 4:57 PM, Ralph Castain wrote: > There is no OMPI 2.5 - do you mean 1.5? > > On Oct 17, 2010, at 4:11 PM, Brian Budge wrote: > >> Hi Jody - >> >> I noticed this exact same thing the other da

[OMPI users] busy wait in MPI_Recv

Hi all - I just ran a small test to find out the overhead of an MPI_Recv call when no communication is occurring. It seems quite high. I noticed during my google excursions that openmpi does busy waiting. I also noticed that the option to -mca mpi_yield_when_idle seems not to help much (in fac
