I have an idea. How about we set those the MPIR variables as weak. Just tested it with STAT.
Can you replace orte/tools/orterun/orterun.c with the attached version and see if it fixes the issue? -Nathan On Thu, 15 Dec 2011, Ashley Pittman wrote:
padb just calls gdb, you can see the error using gdb alone using just the trace I sent when I started this thread. Perhaps the difference is in versions of gdb, I could give you a login to my test machine if you need? Ashley.

This is a dynamic, optimized build of 1.5.5rc1. -Nathan Hjelm HPC-3, LANL On Thu, 15 Dec 2011, Ashley Pittman wrote:If I add a new symbol to orte/mca/debugger/base/debugger_base_open.c and declare it in orte/mca/debugger/base/base.h, the same as MPIR_proctable_size is defined then it appears in the .so but not in the binary, if I then reference this variable in orte/tools/orterun/orterun.c the symbol appears in orterun. It's definably coming from that declaration, what isn't so clear is how it's getting into the binary. I can only assume that orte/mca/debugger/base/debugger_base_fns.c is linked into the binary directly and the symbol is optimised away in the case where it's defined but not used. Ashley.

I don't know why the symbols are showing up in section B of orterun. Investigating now. -Nathan Hjelm HPC-3, LANL On Thu, 15 Dec 2011, George Bosilca wrote:On Dec 15, 2011, at 16:55 , Ashley Pittman wrote:There is a problem with 1.5.5rc1 that prevents padb from loading the process table start from the orterun process, what appears to be happening is that MPIR_proctable and MPIR_proctable_size is present in both orterun itself and also in libopen-rte.so, the code is correctly setting them in libopen-rte.so however when gdb is picking the variable from orterun in preference and hence padb is reading NULL values.Indeed, there are two definitions, but a single declaration. This is true for both the trunk and the 1.5. ./orte/mca/debugger/base/base.h:61:ORTE_DECLSPEC extern struct MPIR_PROCDESC *MPIR_proctable; ./orte/mca/debugger/base/base.h:62:ORTE_DECLSPEC extern int MPIR_proctable_size; ./orte/mca/debugger/base/debugger_base_open.c:42:struct MPIR_PROCDESC *MPIR_proctable = NULL; ./orte/mca/debugger/base/debugger_base_open.c:43:int MPIR_proctable_size = 0; ./orte/tools/orterun/debuggers.c:142:struct MPIR_PROCDESC *MPIR_proctable = NULL; ./orte/tools/orterun/debuggers.c:143:int MPIR_proctable_size = 0; george.Attached is a log showing the problem, the only change I made to the source is to add a call to orte_debugger_base_dump() before the return from orte_debugger_base_init_after_spawn(), it looks like this could also have been achieved via a debug setting but I couldn't see how._______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/devel_______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/devel_______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/devel_______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/devel_______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/devel
