Hi John, Thank you for your advice. But this is only related to its functionality, and right now my problem is it cannot compile with new version openmpi. The reason may come from its patch file since it needs to intercept MPI calls to profile some data. New version openmpi may change its framework so that this old software does not fit it anymore.
