MPI 3 RMA

Bill Gropp and Rajeev Thakur

why change rma
Why Change RMA?
  • “Problems with using MPI 1.1 and 2.0 as compilation targets for parallel language implementations”
    • http://upc.lbl.gov/publications/bonachea-duell-mpi.pdf
    • But note the assumption of cache coherence
  • Mismatch with hardware evolution
    • Or not - will GPGPUs be cache-coherent? 1000 core processors?
  • Lack of support for “classical” shared-memory operations (including the misnamed “Win_lock”); active messages
  • Lack of use by MPI programmers
possible topics
Possible Topics
  • Read-modify-update for MPI RMA
  • Blocking RMA routines (with implied sync); what is memory consistency model?
  • Respond to Dan Bonachea's paper on why MPI RMA unsuited to UPC with enhancements (such as a different "window" model).
    • Probably includes light-weight replacements
  • Changes to MPI RMA for cache coherent systems (good idea or is it too late?)Other RMA models (remote mmap?)
scope must include
Scope must include:
  • MPI "flavor"
  • Portability and Ubiquity
  • Performance on the fastest platforms
  • Memory consistency with THREAD_MULTIPLE
