OpenMPI and ExxonMobil Topics

These are a series of slides for a presentation for ExxonMobil's visit to Los Alamos National Laboratory. Topics covered are: Open MPI - The Release Story, MPI-3 RMA in Open MPI, MPI dynamic process management and Open MPI, and new options with CLE 6. Open MPI RMA features are: since v2.0.0 full support for the MPI-3.1 specification, support for non-contiguous datatypes, support for direct use of the RDMA capabilities of high performance networks (Cray Gemini/Aries, Infiniband), starting in v2.1.0 will have support for using network atomic operations for MPI_Fetch_and_op and MPI_Compare_and_swap, tested with MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE.

Using OFI libfabric on Cori/Edison

These are slides from a presentation during an NERSC site visit to Los Alamos National Laboratory. The following topics are covered: building/installing libfabric, OpenMPI using libfabric, MPICH using libfabric, Open SHMEM (Sandia), other applications, and what is next. The next steps are: get a libfabric 1.4 out, it would be nice to have libfabric 1.4 installed in system space on Cori, add libfabric modules on Cori, might be a good idea to have a SLURM PMI module to simplify its use when building/using Open MPI and MPICH built to use libfabric, and upgrade Edison to CLE 5.2 UP04 or newer.
