All,

FWIW, Pathscale is dying in the new atomics in 1.4.1 (and svn trunk) - actually 
looping -

from gdb:

opal_progress_event_users_decrement () at 
../.././opal/include/opal/sys/atomic_impl.h:61
61         } while (0 == opal_atomic_cmpset_32(addr, oldval, oldval - delta));
Current language:  auto; currently asm
(gdb) where

60            oldval = *addr;
61         } while (0 == opal_atomic_cmpset_32(addr, oldval, oldval - delta));
62         return (oldval - delta);
63      }
64      #endif  /* OPAL_HAVE_ATOMIC_SUB_32 */

FWIW, I have had terrible luck with the patschale compiler over the years.  
Repeated attempts to get support from them -- even when I was a paying customer 
-- resulted in no help (e.g., a pathCC bug with the OMPI C++ bindings that I 
filed years ago was never resolved).

Is this compiler even supported anymore?  I.e., is there a support department 
somewhere that you have a hope of getting any help from?

I can't say for sure, of course, but if MPI hello world hangs, it smells like a compiler 
bug.  You might want to attach to "hello world" in a debugger and see where 
it's hung.  You might need to compile OMPI with debugging symbols to get any meaningful 
information.

** NOTE: My personal feelings about the pathscale compiler suite do not reflect 
anyone else's feelings in the Open MPI community.  Perhaps someone could change 
my mind someday, but *I* have personally given up on this compiler.  :-(

Hello,

It does work with version 1.4. This is the hello world that hangs with
1.4.1:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mpi.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  int node, size;

  MPI_Init(&argc,&argv);
  MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &node);
  MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &size);

  printf("Hello World from Node %d of %d.\n", node, size);

  MPI_Finalize();
  return 0;
}

1 - Do you have problems with openmpi 1.4 too? (I don't, haven't built
1.4.1 yet)
2 - There is a bug in the pathscale compiler with -fPIC and -g that
generates incorrect dwarf2 data so debuggers get really confused and
will have BIG problems debugging the code. I'm chasing them to get a
fix...
3 - Do you have an example code that have problems?
