No luck. The same type of string processing error occurs at some point when trying to read the key itself, see below.

For now I am overriding the load balancer test in the code that reads its key value and am just executing TCHARM_Migrate() whenever the key is found, regardless of its value. Keep fingers crossed.

Hi Phil,

 

So far I had been using charm6.7.0, but I started to notice errors that appeared to be caused by the migration routines in AMPI, so I tried out the new version, 6.7.1. The way the load balancing hints are read appears corrupted. Please see below for a run with an example from examples/ampi/Cjacobi3D. The first time the value of the load balancer key is read it is correct, but all subsequent times when it is actually used, the library attaches a random character. I inserted the debug line:

key 0 equals ampi_load_balance with value sync

Sam: It seems like it should be straightforward to add an assertion in our API entry/exit tracking sentries to catch this kind of issue. Essentially, it would need to check that the calling thread is actually an AMPI process thread that's supposed to be running. We should also document that PUP routines for AMPI code can't call MPI routines.

Hi Sam,

 

I put the code away for a bit and just started looking at it again. I identified one major (and vexing source) of errors: I tried to get ranks to print what they were doing (using MP{I_Comm_rank) inside the PUP routine, and also to synchronize (MPI_Barrier) to order the output. But that it evidently not valid inside the routine, depending on the mode with which it is called. The first two entries are fine, but once migration takes place, errors result. I took all MPI calls out of the PUP routine, and now the code progresses a lot further. Still bombs, but I am pretty sure I can track down the segmentation violation.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Your code is failing inside the call to pup_isPacking(p)? Or it is failing while packing? A pup_er is indeed a pointer.
Also, you should still be using '+isomalloc_sync' whenever Charm gives you that warning during startup: even though you aren't using Isomalloc Heaps, AMPI is using Isomalloc Stacks for its user-level threads.

Thanks, Sam. The code crashes inside AMPI_Migrate, so it doesn’t reach any print statements after that. I tracked down the statement that causes the crash. It is this one: pup_isPacking(p), where p is of type pup_er, I presume that is  a pointer, so I printed it as such. They all look like reasonable addresses to me. None of the ranks prints NULL.

The Isomalloc failure appears to be a locking issue during Charm/Converse startup in SMP/multicore builds when running with Isomalloc. We are looking at this now: https://charm.cs.illinois.edu/redmine/issues/1310. If you switch to a non-SMP/multicore build it will work.

To debug the issue with your PUP code, I would suggest adding print statements before/after your AMPI_Migrate() call, and inside the PUP routine. It often helps to see where in the PUP process (sizing, packing, deleting, unpacking) the runtime is when it fails to debug these types of issues.

Hi Sam,

 

The first experiment was successful, but the isomalloc example hangs. See below. Unless it is a symptom of something bigger, I am not going to worry about the latter, since I wasn’t planning to use isomalloc for heap migration anyway. My regular MPI code on which the AMPI version is based runs fine for all the parameters I have tried, but I reckon that it may contain a memory bug that manifests itself only with load balancing

Can you try an example AMPI program with load balancing? You can try charm/examples/ampi/Cjacobi3D/, running with something like '

./charmrun +p3 ./jacobi 2 2 2 +vp8 +balancer RotateLB +LBDebug 1'. You can also test that example with Isomalloc by running jacobi.iso (and as the warning in the Charm preamble output suggests, run with +isomalloc_sync). It also might help to build Charm++/AMPI with '-g' to get stacktraces.

Hello Team,

 

I am trying to troubleshoot my Adaptive MPI code that uses dynamic load balancing. It crashes with a segmentation fault in AMPI_Migrate. I checked and dchunkpup (which I supplied) is called within AMPI_Migrate and finishes on all ranks. That is not to say it is correct, but the crash is not happening there. It could have corrupted memory elsewhere, though, so I gutted it, such that it only asks for and prints the MPI rank of the ranks entering it. I added graceful exit code after the call to AMPI_Migrate, But that is evidently not reached. I understand that this information is not enough for you to identify the problem, but at present I don’t know where to start, since the error occurs in code that I did not write. Could you give me some pointers where to start? Thanks!

Below is some relevant output. If I replace the RotateLB load balancer with RefineLB, some ranks do pass the AMPI_Migrate call, but that is evidently because the load balancer left them alone.
