Re: [OMPI users] Memory allocation error when linking with MPI libraries
Hi, Thanks Nysal for these details. I also fixed my memory allocation issue using environment variable OMPI_MCA_memory_ptmalloc2_disable which is much more easier (at least in my case) than compiled new openmpi package and install that new package. The point is that it is a bit complicated to have information about this variable (seems to be a secret variable !). Actually I have read that it cannot be used as normal MCA parameter and cannot be set in configuration file ( http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2010/06/13208.php ). When using this variable, I have added -x OMPI_MCA_memory_ptmalloc2_disable option to my mpirun command line. Do I really have to do it ? Is the environment variable (plus -x option if required) is still the only solution to set this parameter to 1 ?

Re: [OMPI users] Memory allocation error when linking with MPI libraries
building openmpi with option "--without-memory-manager" fix my problem. What does it exactly imply to compile with this option ? I guess all malloc use functions from libc instead of openmpi one, but does it have an effect on performance or something else ? Nicolas 2010/8/8 Nysal Jan> What interconnect are you using?

What interconnect are you using? Infiniband? Use "--without-memory-manager" option while building ompi in order to disable ptmalloc.

Yes, I'am using 24G machine on 64 bit Linux OS. If I compile without wrapper, I did not get any problems. It seems that when I am linking with openmpi, my program use a kind of openmpi implemented malloc. Is it possible to switch it off in order ot only use malloc from libc ?

Re: [OMPI users] Memory allocation error when linking with MPI libraries
You're trying to do a 6GB allocate. Can your underlying system handle that? IF you compile without the wrapper, does it work? I see your executable is using the OMPI memory stuff. IIRC there are switches to turn that off.

[OMPI users] Memory allocation error when linking with MPI libraries
Hello, I'am having an sigsegv error when using simple program compiled and link with openmpi. I have reproduce the problem using really simple fortran code. It actually does not even use MPI, but just link with mpi shared libraries. (problem does not appear when I do not link with mpi libraries) % cat allocate.F90 program test implicit none integer, dimension(:), allocatable :: z integer(kind=8) :: l write(*,*) "l ?" read(*,*) l ALLOCATE(z(l)) z(1) = 111 z(l) = 222 DEALLOCATE(z) end program test I am using openmpi 1.4.2 and gfortran for my tests. Here is the compilation : % ./openmpi-1.4.2/build/bin/mpif90 --showme -g -o testallocate allocate.F90 gfortran -g -o testallocate allocate.F90 -I/s0/scr1/TOMOT_19311_HAL_/openmpi-1.4.2/build/include -pthread -I/s0/scr1/TOMOT_19311_HAL_/openmpi-1.4.2/build/lib -L/s0/scr1/TOMOT_19311_HAL_/openmpi-1.4.2/build/lib -lmpi_f90 -lmpi_f77 -lmpi -lopen-rte -lopen-pal -ldl -Wl,--export-dynamic -lnsl -lutil -lm -ldl -pthread When I am running that test with different length, I sometimes get a "Segmentation fault" error. Here are two examples using two specific values, but error happens for many other values of length (I did not manage to find which values of lenght gives that error) % ./testallocate l ? 16 Segmentation fault % ./testallocate l ? 20 I used debugger with re-compiled version of openmpi using debug flag. I got the folowing error in function sYSMALLOc Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x2b70b3b3 in sYSMALLOc (nb=640016, av=0x2b930200) at malloc.c:3239 3239set_head(remainder, remainder_size | PREV_INUSE); Current language: auto; currently c (gdb) bt #0 0x2b70b3b3 in sYSMALLOc (nb=640016, av=0x2b930200) at malloc.c:3239 #1 0x2b70d0db in opal_memory_ptmalloc2_int_malloc (av=0x2b930200, bytes=64) at malloc.c:4322 #2 0x2b70b773 in opal_memory_ptmalloc2_malloc (bytes=64) at malloc.c:3435 #3 0x2b70a665 in opal_memory_ptmalloc2_malloc_hook (sz=64, caller=0x2bf8534d) at hooks.c:667 #4 0x2bf8534d in _gfortran_internal_free () from /usr/lib64/libgfortran.so.1 #5 0x00400bcc in MAIN__ () at allocate.F90:11 #6 0x00400c4e in main () (gdb) display (gdb) list 3234 if ((unsigned long)(size) >= (unsigned long)(nb + MINSIZE)) { 3235remainder_size = size - nb; 3236remainder = chunk_at_offset(p, nb); 3237av->top = remainder; 3238set_head(p, nb | PREV_INUSE | (av != _arena ? NON_MAIN_ARENA : 0)); 3239set_head(remainder, remainder_size | PREV_INUSE); 3240check_malloced_chunk(av, p, nb); 3241return chunk2mem(p); 3242 } 3243 I also did the same test in C and I got the same problem. Does someone has any idea that could help me understand what's going on ? Regards Nicolas
