Compiler Notes

The AMD64 AOCC Compiler Suite is available at
http://developer.amd.com/amd-aocc/

Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size limit
'ulimit -l 2097152' was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit

runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>

'echo 8 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio' run as root to limit dirty cache to 8% of
memory.
'echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness' run as root to limit swap usage to minimum
necessary.
'echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode' run as root to free node-local memory
and avoid remote memory usage.
'sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' run as root to reset filesystem caches.
'sysctl -w kernel.randomize_va_space=0' run as root to disable address space layout
randomization (ASLR) to reduce run-to-run variability.

To enable Transparent Hugepages (THP) for all allocations,
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' and
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag' run as root.
To enable THP only on request for peak runs of 628.pop2_s, and 638.imagick_s,
'echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' run as root.
To disable THP for peak runs of 627.cam4_s, 644.nab_s, 649.fotonik3d_s, and 654.roms_s,
'echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' run as root.

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
     "/dev/shm/cpu2017-1.1.5/amd_speed_aocc300_milan_B_lib/64;/dev/shm/cpu201
     7-1.1.5/amd_speed_aocc300_milan_B_lib/32:"
MALLOC_CONF = "retain:true"
OMP_DYNAMIC = "false"
OMP_SCHEDULE = "static"
OMP_STACKSIZE = "128M"
OMP_THREAD_LIMIT = "32"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 603.bwaves_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 607.cactuBSSN_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 619.lbm_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 621.wrf_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 654.roms_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"
