[OMPI users] TotalView Memory debugging and OpenMPI

We've gotten a few reports of problems with memory debugging when using OpenMPI under TotalView. Usually, TotalView will attach tot he processes started after an MPI_Init. However in the case where memory debugging is enabled, things seemed to run away or fail. My analysis showed that we ha

I wonder if someone might have possible ideas to explore as to why this program might not be working correctly under TotalView. Essentially a user is running a very simple hello world like program that does this: #include #include #include int main(int argc, char **argv) { MPI_Init( &argc

The value of 4 might be invalid (though maybe on a 32b machine, it would be okay?) but it's enough to allow TotalView to continue on without raising a memory event, so I'm okay with it ;-) PeterT Ashley Pittman wrote: Simple malloc() returns pointers that are at least eight byte aligned anywa

I've tried a few builds of 1.4 on Snow Leopard, and trying to start up TotalView gets some of the more 'standard' problems. Either the typdef for MPIR_PROCDESC can't be found, or MPIR_PROCTABLE is missing. You can get things to work if you start up TotalView first and then pick your program an
