Using TAU in Pooma II

Use the TAU suite KCC_64_K3_PROFILE to use TAU profiling.

Implementation

TAU uses automatic source code instrumentation in Pooma II using the EDG C++ parser, TAU IL Converter, and DUCTAPE.

Settings

On ASCI BlueMountain machines, add to your .cshrc file
set path=($path /usr/local/pooma/packages/tau2/bin/sgi8k)

Compiling

Compile Pooma II :
% setenv SUITE KCC_64_K3_PROFILE
% make cleansuite; make dirs; make depend; % make
and run an example:

% cd $POOMA2_ROOT/test/Domain/Range/Calculus/ % make % cd $SUITE % ./RangeCalculus
and then run racy or pprof
% pprof % racy
and enter rc.pmf (any file.pmf) in the project management window and click on Create.

Customizing TAU

If you'd like to customize the profiling backend, please download a copy of TAU from this site and modify the TAUDIR variable in $POOMA2_ROOT/config/KCC_64_K3_PROFILE.suite.mk to reflect your local TAU distribution location. By default, it uses the TAU distribution installed in /usr/local/pooma/packages/tau2 and configured with the following parameters:

% ./configure -c++=KCC -SGITIMERS -tulipthread=/home/smarts/profile/smarts -smarts

The meaning of the different TAU configuration options is explained in the tutorial.
