Any specific configure flags you'd want me to use?

And does node config matter, i.e., hemi/snc2 etc?

[hwloc-users] call for testing on KNL

2018-02-09 Thread Brice Goglin
Hello

As you may know, hwloc only discovers KNL MCDRAM Cache details if
hwloc-dump-hwdata ran as root earlier. There's an issue with that tool
in 2.0, which was supposed to be a feature: we fixed the matching of
SMBIOS strings, and now it appears some vendors don't match anymore
because they didn't use the standardized strings :(

If you have root access on a KNL, could you build this tarball and run
utils/hwloc/hwloc-dump-hwdata -o foo (or $prefix/sbin/hwloc-dump-hwdata
-o foo).

https://ci.inria.fr/hwloc/job/zbgoglin-0-tarball/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/hwloc-hdh-20180209.1705.git6cd1efb.tar.gz


If things work, you should see something like:

Dumping KNL SMBIOS Memory-Side Cache information:
  File = /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/14-0/raw, size = 4096
Looking for "Group: Knights Landing Information" in group string "Group: 
Knights Landing Information"
   Found phi group
  Found KNL type = 160
  [... lots of other lines ...]


If it doesn't work:

|Dumping KNL SMBIOS Memory-Side Cache information: File =
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/14-0/raw, size = 4096 Looking for "Group:
Knights Landing Information" in group string "foobar" Looking for
"Group: Knights Mill Information" in group string "foobar" Looking for
"Knights Landing Association" in group string "foobar" Failed to find
phi group SMBIOS table does not contain KNL entries|


In both cases, please send the model of the machine [1] as well as the
full output of the tool.

This issue might lead to a 2.0.1 release soon. In the meantime, you can
use hwloc-dump-hwdata from 1.11.9, its output is compatible with hwloc 2.0.

Thanks

Brice


[1] if you don't know, look at strings in "cat
/sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/*"
