Sebastian,
at first glance, the global lock in romio glue is not necessary.
feel free to give the attached patch a try
(it works with your example, and i made no further testing)
Cheers,
Gilles

Sebastian,
thanks for the info.
bottom line, the global lock is in the OpenMPI glue for ROMIO.
i will check what kind of locking (if any) is done in mpich
Cheers,
Gilles

Hi,
I tested this on my desktop machine. Thus, one node, two tasks.
It deadlock appears on the local file system and on the nfs mount.
The MPICH version I tested was 3.2.
However, as far as I know, locking is part of the MPI library and not
ROMIO.
Best regards,
Sebastian

Sebastian,
in openmpi 1.10, the default io component is romio from mpich 3.0.4.
how many tasks, how many nodes and which file system are you running
on ?
Cheers,
Gilles

Hi,
I tried to run the attached program with OpenMPI. It works well
with MPICH
and Intel MPI but I get a deadlock when using OpenMPI.
I am using OpenMPI 1.10.0 with support for MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE.
It seems like ROMIO uses global locks in OpenMPI which is a problem if
multiple threads want to do collective I/O.
Any idea how one can get around this issue?
Best regards,
Sebastian
