/me blushes in shame, it would seem that all I needed to do since the begining was to run a make distclean. I apprantly had some old compiled files lying around. Now I get:
kyron@headless ~/1_Files/1_ETS/1_Maitrise/MGL810/Devoir2 $ mpirun --hostfile hostlist -np 4 uname -a Linux headless 2.6.17-ck1-r1 #1 SMP Tue Jul 11 16:39:18 EDT 2006 x86_64 AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244 GNU/Linux Linux headless 2.6.17-ck1-r1 #1 SMP Tue Jul 11 16:39:18 EDT 2006 x86_64 AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244 GNU/Linux Linux node0 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 #5 Tue Jul 11 12:30:41 EDT 2006 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2500+ GNU/Linux Linux node1 2.6.16-gentoo-r7 #5 Tue Jul 11 12:30:41 EDT 2006 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2500+ GNU/Linux Which is correct. Sorry for the misfire, I hadn't thought of cleaning up the compilation dir... Now that I have that out of the way, I'd like to know how I am supposed to compile my apps so that they can run on an homogenous network with mpi. Here is an example: kyron@headless ~/1_Files/1_ETS/1_Maitrise/MGL810/Devoir2 $ mpicc -L/usr/X/lib -lm -lX11 -O3 mandelbrot-mpi.c -o mandelbrot-mpi kyron@headless ~/1_Files/1_ETS/1_Maitrise/MGL810/Devoir2 $ mpirun --hostfile hostlist -np 3 ~/1_Files/1_ETS/1_Maitrise/MGL810/Devoir2/mandelbrot-mpi -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Could not execute the executable "/home/kyron/1_Files/1_ETS/1_Maitrise/MGL810/Devoir2/mandelbrot-mpi": Exec format error This could mean that your PATH or executable name is wrong, or that you do not have the necessary permissions. Please ensure that the executable is able to be found and executed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- As can be seen with the uname -a that was run previously, I have 2 "local nodes" on the x86_64 and two i686 nodes. I tried to find examples in the Doc on howto compile applications correctly for such a setup without compromising performance but I came short of an example. Thanks, Eric PS: I know..maybe I should start another thread ;) Le dimanche 16 juillet 2006 14:31, Brian Barrett a écrit : > On Jul 15, 2006, at 2:58 PM, Eric Thibodeau wrote: > > But, for some reason, on the Athlon node (in their image on the > > server I should say) OpenMPI still doesn't seem to be built > > correctly since it crashes as follows: > > > > > > kyron@node0 ~ $ mpirun -np 1 uptime > > > > Signal:11 info.si_errno:0(Success) si_code:1(SEGV_MAPERR) > > > > Failing at addr:(nil) > > > > [0] func:/home/kyron/openmpi_i686/lib/libopal.so.0 [0xb7f6258f] > > > > [1] func:[0xffffe440] > > > > [2] func:/home/kyron/openmpi_i686/lib/liborte.so.0(orte_init_stage1 > > +0x1d7) [0xb7fa0227] > > > > [3] func:/home/kyron/openmpi_i686/lib/liborte.so.0(orte_system_init > > +0x23) [0xb7fa3683] > > > > [4] func:/home/kyron/openmpi_i686/lib/liborte.so.0(orte_init+0x5f) > > [0xb7f9ff7f] > > > > [5] func:mpirun(orterun+0x255) [0x804a015] > > > > [6] func:mpirun(main+0x22) [0x8049db6] > > > > [7] func:/lib/tls/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xdb) [0xb7de8f0b] > > > > [8] func:mpirun [0x8049d11] > > > > *** End of error message *** > > > > Segmentation fault > > > > > > The crash happens both in the chrooted env and on the nodes.
