Missing traceback with OpenMP threads activated

Olivier_C_ — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 22:31:29 GMT

To get a traceback, we set the -traceback option to the compiler.
However, after meeting an OpenMP instruction (threads created), there is no more traceback.
Here is a sample program:
$ cat toto.f90
program toto
implicit none
integer :: iexit
integer(KIND=4) :: ier
!$ integer(kIND=4),external :: omp_get_num_threads
!$OMP PARALLEL
!$OMP MASTER
!$ print*,'Threads=',omp_get_num_threads()
!$OMP END MASTER
!$OMP END PARALLEL
do iexit=-2, 2
print*,'iexit=',1/iexit
enddo
end program toto
$ ifort -V -traceback -g -C -openmp -c toto.f90 -o toto.o && ifort -g -openmp -o a.toto toto.o && ./a.toto ; ldd ./a.toto

Does anyone have an Intel compiler release/platform that provides a traceback ?
Without OpenMP, we get

which is what is expected from the -traceback option.

Thanks for the convenient reproducer. Also occurs with our 11.1 release on non-Mandriva. I noted you also submitted to Intel Premier so I will try to coordinateinvestigation with the assigned Support Engineer and update as we learn more.

Today I made the test on an old Xeon with a CentOS, a three years old one.
I got the traceback with 11.0.69 !
As well, I tried the test on an old Pentium III. It failed with 10.1.008 but passed with 9.1.039 !
Since the problem seems to be very operating system related, I think a survey in that forum might be more fruitful there than by the traditional support.
Thank you for your feedback, I need more feedback from other users.
Sincerely,
Olivier Cessenat.

Apologies, on Pentium is OK with 9.1.039 and sometimes with 10.1.008 (not always) but fails on 11.0.069. In fact it depends on the libguide runtime library since the same executable is OK or not depending on libguide as follows:

From Development: the OpenMP RTLs handle interrupts by default. This will be changed in a future release.

(Internal tracking id: DPD200140048)

For now, disable OpenMP RTL handling by setting the environment variable KMP_HANDLE_SIGNALS to 0.

The variable setting applies equally to 11.x, 10.x, 9.x compiler releases. (11.1.056 shown below).

Re: Missing traceback with OpenMP threads activated

Modify your test program such that the exit(0); is .NOT. issued from OpenMP team member number 0 if(omp_get_thread_num() != 0) exit(0)

When team member number ==0 this is the "master thread" of the team. In an un-Nested parallel region this is your main thread.

Should the exit(0) occure in the main thread then the unwinding of the stack will show path up through main.
IOW you will have a false indication that everything works as expected.

Only when traceback works properly for thread .NOT. being main thread can you then declare the code is working as expected.

Thanks a lot, I had the same answer from a colleague today.
I tested at home and it works.
Could you indicate some documentation about what signals are handled by the OpenMP RTL ?
Thank you.
Olivier Cessenat.

I didn't get your point. The exit function is outside the parallel region and never reached.
You are right for the traceback inside an OpenMP region, which may be my next subject.
Thanks for you answer and attention.
Sincerely,
Olivier Cessenat.

Please excuse the delay Olivier. In regards to this question, Development says:

List of handled signals on Windows: int, ill, abrt, fpe, segv, term.
List of handled signals on Linux/Mac OS: hup, int, quit, ill, abrt, fpe, bus, segv, sys (if any), term, pipe.

This information nor the previous mentioned environment variable are currently documented so I requested both be documented in a future release.
