SparseBench

A hybrid MPI+OpenMP parallel sparse solver benchmark collection.

Build

It is recommended to use GNU Make 4.0 or newer. While older make versions will work, the generation of the .clangd configuration for the clang language server will not work. The default Make version included in MacOS is 3.81! Newer make versions can be easily installed on MacOS using the Homebrew package manager.

1. Configure the tool-chain and additional options in config.mk:

# Supported: GCC, CLANG, ICC
TOOLCHAIN ?= GCC
ENABLE_MPI ?= false
ENABLE_OPENMP ?= false

OPTIONS +=  -DARRAY_ALIGNMENT=64
OPTIONS +=  -DOMP_SCHEDULE=static
#OPTIONS +=  -DDEBUG
#OPTIONS +=  -DVERBOSE_AFFINITY
#OPTIONS +=  -DVERBOSE_DATASIZE
#OPTIONS +=  -DVERBOSE_TIMER

The verbosity options enable detailed output about affinity settings, allocation sizes and timer resolution.

1. Build with:

make

You can build multiple tool-chains in the same directory, but notice that the Makefile is only acting on the one currently set. Intermediate build results are located in the ./build/<TOOLCHAIN> directory.

To show all executed commands use:

make Q=

1. Clean up intermediate build results for current tool-chain with:

make clean

Clean up all build results for all tool-chains with:

make distclean

1. Optional targets:

Generate assembler:

make asm

The assembler files will also be located in the ./build/<TOOLCHAIN> directory. Reformat all source files using clang-format. This only works if clang-format is in your path.

make format
