Error in I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN when combining Intel MPI and OpenMP

as14 — Fri, 10 Feb 2023 13:53:39 GMT

Hi,

I am running a Coarray Fortran code with Intel-MPI, and additionally am trying to combine this with OpenMP. Intel-MPI should assign a rank to each node I am using, and within that node, all cores should be available to OpenMP as threads.

In my case, each node consists of two sockets with 64 threads each. I only run with 10 for testing, as you will see below.

The MPI functionality and communication between nodes works perfectly, however only one OpenMP thread is visible when running omp_get_num_procs() .

I am using SLURM, and in my job script, I set:

export I_MPI_OFI_PROVIDER=Verbs

export I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN=node

export OMP_NUM_THREADS=10

Setting the OFI provider to Verbs specifies the communications provider between notes, and the I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN sets how threads should be pinned within an MPI domain (see here: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documentation/mpi-developer-reference-linux/top/environment-variable-reference/process-pinning/interoperability-with-openmp-api.html).

I submit the job with:

#SBATCH --nodes=2

#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=1

#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=10

I have tested with:

1. intel/19.1.3.304 (2020.4.304) with intel/mpi/2021.5.0

2. intel-oneapi-compilers/2022.0.2-gcc-11.2.0-yzi4tsu with intel-oneapi-mpi/2021.4.0-gcc-11.2.0-2e7zm7z

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

Could you please try using 'omp' instead 'node' in I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN

Could you please provide us with a complete sample reproducer code and steps to reproduce the issue so that we can try it from our end?

Thanks and Regards,

Aishwarya

Thanks for getting back to me. I had already tried I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN as omp, and I have tried again now, but still not working. Please find attached a zip file with the code. You simply need to execute "./run.sh" to create the executable and submit a job to the SLURM job management system.

Let me know what you figure out! Thanks!

Hi,

We have run your code with Intel processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8360Y CPU @ 2.40GHz

We were successfully able to run the code and was able to get 10 threads by assigning omp to I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN

Can find the following attached screenshots for using node and omp as node.png and omp.png respectively.

NOTE: Could you please check I_MPI_PIN_DOMAIN=omp with Intel Processors

Can find the supported Intel Processors here https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/support/products/873/processors.html#122139

Thanks And Regards,

Aishwarya

Hi,

Thanks for testing - I have been attempting to run this on AMD processors, which therefore must be the cause of the problem. Thanks anyway!

Hi,

Thank you for your inquiry. We can only offer direct support for Intel hardware platforms that the Intel® oneAPI product supports. Intel provides instructions on how to compile oneAPI code for both CPU and a wide range of GPU accelerators. https://intel.github.io/llvm-docs/GetStartedGuide.html
