Re: [bgl-discuss] -pg or the hpc tools




I did try just doing one at a time. The (vague) results I listed were for each running independently. Hm - have you had success on our BG/L? This might be something FLASH-like that is breaking things.

The BG/L performance counters normally use the interval timer facility to prevent counter wrap-around, but the interval timer is also needed by the profiling mechanism enabled via -pg. So you can't do both at the same time. Using one at a time, either profiling with -pg, or the using performance counters, should be OK, and I have had some success with profiling real apps in that way.

Has anyone got an actual complex code successfully running using the IBM hpm tools and/or -pg? I can get some trivial code snippets running but I cannot get real codes to run.

For example, the -pg/profiling option always core dumps the code.
And, even using the explicit examples in /soft/tool/hpct for the more
involved perf. stuff my codes die with an immediate abort..
