• Amit July 2, 2009 5:14 PM PDT    OpenMP-MPI hybrid code - SIGSEGV Hi, I have a hybrid MPI-OpenMP fortran code which I run on 2 OpenMP threads and 1 MPI processor. Everything works correctly. (The code is loop level parallelized.) When I tried to run the code on 4 threads I got NANs in my solution. I went through previous forum posts and found that if I include the flag -shared-intel -mcmodel=medium then I can overcome the memory problem but now I run into following segmentation fault. I also went through the segmentation error guide and couldn't find an answer to this problem. (I have also tried setting the KMP_STACKSIZE to 25GB and ulimit -s unlimited) btw, I use ifort 10.0. amit@sys:~/openmp> mpirun -np 1 ./2009.x MPI: On host sys, Program /openmp/2009.x, Rank 0, Process 26346 received signal SIGSEGV(11) MPI: --------stack traceback------- MPI: MPI_COMM_WORLD rank 0 has terminated without calling MPI_Finalize() MPI: aborting job MPI: Received signal 11 Thanks, Amit TimP (Intel) July 2, 2009 6:54 PM PDT Rate   #1 Re: OpenMP-MPI hybrid code - SIGSEGV Quoting - amit I also went through the segmentation error guide and couldn't find an answer to this problem.

I wouldn't expect to find answers without following up Ron's suggestions about how to dig deeper. In principle, thread checker should be applicable, although it hasn't had much maintenance lately. Why are you using such an old compiler? When running 1 mpi process, it shouldn't matter which MPI you are using, but if your MPI is as old as your compiler, you are probably wasting your time.     The current Intel and HP MPI have built-in support for hybrid.

As Tim says, do try -g -traceback and see if anything comes from that. In older MPI implementations I have seen errors where environment is not propagated to child processes spawned by mpirun.  I would write a simple script: #!/bin/bash env and run this under mpirun:  mpirun -np 1 ./myscript just to see if your stacksize and KMP variables are propagating.  You could/should add those ulimit and KMP definitions to your login scripts   .profile  .cshrc or whatever ones you use.
