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
OS set to performance mode via cpupower frequency-set -g performance

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

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

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:
'echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' run as root.
To disable THP for peak runs of 627.cam4_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 = "0-95"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
     "/spec2017/amd_speed_aocc320_milanx_A_lib/lib;/spec2017/amd_speed_aocc32
     0_milanx_A_lib/lib32:"
LIBOMP_NUM_HIDDEN_HELPER_THREADS = "0"
MALLOC_CONF = "retain:true"
OMP_DYNAMIC = "false"
OMP_SCHEDULE = "static"
OMP_STACKSIZE = "128M"
OMP_THREAD_LIMIT = "96"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 607.cactuBSSN_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-47"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 619.lbm_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-47"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 621.wrf_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-47"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 627.cam4_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-47"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 644.nab_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-95"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 654.roms_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-47"
