Compiler Notes

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>

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 always enable THP for peak runs of:
603.bwaves_s, 607.cactuBSSN_s, 619.lbm_s, 627.cam4_s, 628.pop2_s, 638.imagick_s, 644.nab_s, 649.fotonik3d_s:
'echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag'
run as root.
To disable THP for peak runs of 621.wrf_s:
'echo never > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag'
run as root.
To enable THP only on request for peak runs of 654.roms_s:
'echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled; echo madvise > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag'
run as root.

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-47"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
     "/mnt/ramdisk/cpu2017-1.1.8-aocc400-B1b/amd_speed_aocc400_genoa_B_lib/li
     b:"

OMP_DYNAMIC = "false"
OMP_SCHEDULE = "static"
OMP_STACKSIZE = "128M"
OMP_THREAD_LIMIT = "48"

General Notes

Binaries were compiled on a system with 2x AMD EPYC 9174F CPU + 1.5TiB Memory using RHEL 8.6
