  2. mpiP and IPM SCALABILITY IN MPI APPLICATIONS

  3. About mpiP mpiP is an MPI Profiling library mpip.sourceforge.net • Scalable & Lightweight • Multiplatform • Linux IA32/IA64/x86_64/MPIS64 • IBM POWER 4/5 • Cray XT3/XT4/X1E • Does not require manual code instrumentation • collects statistics of MPI functions (wraps original MPI function calls) • less overhead than tracing tools • less data than tracing tools • Easy to use (requires linking but not compilation)

  4. Using mpiP Load the mpiP module: % module load mpiP Link the static library before any others: % mpicc -g -L$TACC_MPIP_LIB -lmpiP -lbfd -liberty ./srcFile.c Set environmental variables controlling the mpiP output: % setenv MPIP ‘-t 10 -k 2’ In this case: -t 10  only callsites with time > 10% MPI time included in report -k 2  set callsite stack traceback depth to 2 Run program through the queue as usual.

  5. mpiP runtime options (csh)% setenv MPIP ‘option1 option2 …’ (bash)% export MPIP=‘option1 option2 …’

  6. mpiP calls from C/Fortran Generate arbitrary reports using the function call MPI_Pcontrol() with different arguments Useful to: • profile specific sections of the code • obtain individual profiles of multiple function calls

  7. MPI_Pcontrol examples Scope limitation Individual reports switch(i) { case 5: MPI_Pcontrol(2); // reset profile data MPI_Pcontrol(1); // enable profiling break; case 6: MPI_Pcontrol(3); // generate verbose report MPI_Pcontrol(4); // generate concise report MPI_Pcontrol(0); // disable profiling break; default: break; } /* ... do something for one timestep ... */ switch(i) { case 5: MPI_Pcontrol(1);// enable profiling break; case 6: MPI_Pcontrol(0);// disable profiling break; default: break; } /* ... do something for one timestep ... */

  8. mpiP output After running the executable a file with the extension .mpiP will be generated with: • MPI Time (MPI time for all MPI calls) • MPI callsites • Aggregate message size • Aggregate time For scalability analysis it is important to compare the total MPI time to the total running time of the application. Detailed function call data can be used to identify communication hotspots.

  15. About IPM IPM is an Integrated Performance Monitoring tool http://ipm-hpc.sourceforge.net/ Portable profiling infrastructure for parallel codes Low-overhead performance summary of computing and communication IPM is a quick,easy andconcise profiling tool Requires no manual instrumentation, just adding the -g option to the compilation Produces XML output that is parsed by scripts to generate browser-readable html pages The level of detail it reports is lower than TAU, PAPI, HPCToolkit or Scalasca but higher than mpiP

  16. Using IPM • Available on Ranger for both intel and pgi compilers, with mvapich and mvapich2 • Create ipm environment with module command before running code: % module load ipm • In your job script, set up the following ipm environment before the ibrun command:module load ipmexport LD_PRELOAD=$TACC_IPM_LIB/libipm.soexport IPM_REPORT=fullibrun <my executable> <my arguments>

  17. Using IPM • export LD_PRELOAD=$TACC_IPM_LIB/libipm.so • must be inside job script to ensure the IPM wrappers for MPI calls are loaded properly • IPM_REPORT: controls the level of information collected • full • terse • none • IPM_MPI_THRESHOLD: Reports only routines using this percentage (or more) of MPI time. • e.g. “IPM_MPI_THRESHOLD 0.3” report subroutines that consume more than 30% of the total MPI time. • Important details: % module help ipm

  18. Output from IPM When your code has finished running IPM will create an XML file with a name like: username.1231369287.321103.0 Get basic or full information in text mode using: % ipm_parse username.1231369287.321103.0 % ipm_parse -full username.1231369287.321103.0 You can also transform this XML file into standard HTML files : %ipm_parse -html username.1231369287.321103.0 This generates a directory which contains an index.html file readable by any web browser Tar this directory and scp the file to your own local computer to visualize the results

  27. timers, gprof BASIC PROFILING TOOLS

  28. Timers: Command Line The command time is available in most Unix systems. It is simple to use (no code instrumentation required). Gives total execution time of a process and all its children in seconds. % /usr/bin/time -p ./exeFile real 9.95 user 9.86 sys 0.06 Leave out the -p option to get additional information: % time ./exeFile % 9.860u 0.060s 0:09.95 99.9% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w

  29. Timers: Code Section INTEGER :: rate, start, stop REAL :: time CALL SYSTEM_CLOCK(COUNT_RATE = rate) CALL SYSTEM_CLOCK(COUNT = start) ! Code to time here CALL SYSTEM_CLOCK(COUNT = stop) time = REAL( ( stop - start )/ rate ) #include <time.h> double start, stop, time; start = (double)clock()/CLOCKS_PER_SEC; /* Code to time here */ stop = (double)clock()/CLOCKS_PER_SEC; time = stop - start;

  30. About GPROF GPROF is the GNU Project PROFiler. gnu.org/software/binutils/ Requires recompilation of the code. Compiler options and libraries provide wrappers for each routine call and periodic sampling of the program. A default gmon.out file is produced with the function call information. GPROF links the symbol list in the executable with the data in gmon.out.

  31. Types of Profiles • Flat Profile • CPU time spend in each function (self and cumulative) • Number of times a function is called • Useful to identify most expensive routines • Call Graph • Number of times a function was called by other functions • Number of times a function called other functions • Useful to identify function relations • Suggests places where function calls could be eliminated • Annotated Source • Indicates number of times a line was executed

  32. Profiling with gprof Use the -pg flag during compilation: % gcc -g -pg ./srcFile.c % icc -g -p ./srcFile.c % pgcc -g -pg ./srcFile.c Run the executable. An output file gmon.out will be generated with the profiling information. Execute gprof and redirect the output to a file: % gprof ./exeFile gmon.out > profile.txt % gprof –l ./exeFile gmon.out > profile_line.txt % gprof -A ./exeFile gmon.out > profile_anotated.txt

  33. Flat profile In the flat profile we can identify the most expensive parts of the code (in this case, the calls to matSqrt, matCube, and sysCube). % cumulative self self total time seconds seconds calls s/call s/call name 50.00 2.47 2.47 2 1.24 1.24 matSqrt 24.70 3.69 1.22 1 1.22 1.22 matCube 24.70 4.91 1.22 1 1.22 1.22 sysCube 0.61 4.94 0.03 1 0.03 4.94 main 0.00 4.94 0.00 2 0.00 0.00 vecSqrt 0.00 4.94 0.00 1 0.00 1.24 sysSqrt 0.00 4.94 0.00 1 0.00 0.00 vecCube
