Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The --raw, --hdf5, --mpiio options weren't being done correctly.
Solution:
I had to change some of the tests for the io_type to & instead of |
so that they'd work how I wanted them to work.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Feature Changes
Description:
Okay, I needed to add in more parameters so that the user can modify
how things are supposed to work with the PIO programs. Also needed
to change the algorithm a bit to make these work. And needed to add
in timing for the READ option.
Solution:
Added the above things. The parameters took a major rewrite of the
command-line parsing stuff. Here's the usage statement:
usage: pio_perf [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS
-h, --help Print a usage message and exit
-d N, --num-dsets=N Number of datasets per file [default:1]
-f S, --file-size=S Size of a single file [default: 64M]
-F N, --num-files=N Number of files [default: 1]
-H, --hdf5 Run HDF5 performance test
-i, --num-iterations Number of iterations to perform [default: 1]
-m, --mpiio Run MPI/IO performance test
-o F, --output=F Output raw data into file F [default: none]
-P N, --max-num-processes=N Maximum number of processes to use [default: 1]
-p N, --min-num-processes=N Minimum number of processes to use [default: 1]
-r, --raw Run raw (UNIX) performance test
-X S, --max-xfer-size=S Maximum transfer buffer size [default: 1M]
-x S, --min-xfer-size=S Minimum transfer buffer size [default: 1K]
F - is a filename.
N - is an integer >=0.
S - is a size specifier, an integer >=0 followed by a size indicator:
K - Kilobyte
M - Megabyte
G - Gigabyte
Example: 37M = 37 Megabytes
Platforms tested:
Linux, but not fully finished...
Purpose:
DOH!
Description:
Ugh! I forgot to add the -m flag to the list of "short" parameter
codes. It wasn't even looking for them. *sigh*
Solution:
Added it
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Feature Fix
Description:
Changed default size of file to 512MB. The "-m" flag is now in
megabytes as well. This makes running things a bit faster.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Fixed so that it will display the correct timing data. It will also
write to the correct file (which it wasn't before).
Solution:
Put the code in for displaying the time. Had to change the way I was
passing an object to the pio_fopen() function from just being a
structure to being a pointer so that the changes could be propagated
back.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Small Fixes
Description:
After conversation with Albert, here are some small fixes for the
performance stuff. Not too significant. Though, we did add the
"buffer size" as a parameter I pass to the engine.
Purpose:
bug Fix
Description:
Changed the code so that if parallel stuff isn't enabled, then we
don't compile the parallel code.
Solution:
Cleaned up the code and put #ifdef's around it checking for parallel
flags.
Platforms tested:
Linux
New addition
Description:
Initial version of the Parallel I/O performance measurement program.
Not fully implemented yet but checking them in before I may destroy
them by accident.
Don't run this in small file system (like AFS or eirene) since it
generates gigabytes test files.
Platforms tested:
modi4 64bits. It compiled and ran but took a long time because
the current test parametes are too "wild".
