I tried the following code without CUDA, the error is still there:
#include "mpi.h"
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstring>
#include <cmath>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
// override command line arguments to make sure cudaengine get the
correct one
char **argv_new = new char*[ argc + 2 ];
for( int i = 0 ; i < argc ; i++ )
{
argv_new[i] = new char[ strlen( argv[i] ) + 1 ];
strcpy( argv_new[i], argv[i] );
}
argv_new[ argc ] = new char[ 32 ];
argv_new[ argc+1 ] = new char[ 32 ];
strcpy( argv_new[argc], "-device" );
sprintf( argv_new[argc+1], "%d", 0 );
argc += 2;
argv = argv_new;
MPI_Init(&argc,&argv);
// do something...
MPI_Finalize();
for( int i = 0 ; i < argc ; i++ ) delete [] argv[i];
delete [] argv;
}
At the end of the program the pointer stored in argv is exactly that of
argv_new so this should not be a problem. Manually inserting printf tells
me that the fault occured at MPI_Init. The code works fine if I use
MPI_Init(NULL,NULL) instead. The same code also compiles and runs without a
problem on my laptop with mpich2-1.4.
Best,
Yu-Hang
