Interfacing deal.II - to MUMPS

- -

- MUMPS - should be readily packaged by most Linux distributions. - Don't forget to install a develpment version of the library. -

- -

- Below is a detailed instruction on how to compile and install - MUMPS and some of its dependencies by hand (for - the case you wish to do so). -

- -

How to compile and install MUMPS by hand

- -

- In the following, we describe the compilation process of - MUMPS and its dependencies starting - with BLACS and following with - SCALAPACK. - - The compilation of MUMPS and its dependencies - is not as straightforward is we would like, however, it is not - so difficult that we can not talk about it. That said, we cannot - discuss every possible choice of parameters, because this is too - involved (and we would probably much rather be doing something - productive with the interface and deal.II). Thus - we give only a short walk-through mentioning the most important - parameters needed for successful compliation and linking. -

- -

The compilation scheme involves repeating the same three steps - for each piece of software we want installed: (i) Selecting an - appropriate makefile; (ii) Modifying symbols in this makefile to - suit the environment; and (iii) running make to actually compile - the software. -

- -

Note: If you are using a system, which provides - Intel's MKL, you should only have to compile - MUMPS, since BLACS and - SCALPACK are already included in the - MKL. Therefore you can jump directly to - section 3, where the compilation of MUMPS is - considered. Otherwise start right below with the installation - of BLACS. -

- -

1. BLACS

- -

The BLACS library - provides basic linear algebra routines together with a - communication model such that they can be used in parallel. The - compilation of this library is highly dependent on the system - and software used and we can only give a general guide through - the configuration process. -

- -

The library can be found on the - official BLACS - webpage. We require the three - files mpiblacs.tgz, - mpiblacs-patch03.tgz, and - blacstester.tgz. After extraction of these - three files in the same directory, we find a subfolder - named BMAKES in that directory. Inside this - subfolder there are lots of different Bmake-files for - different architectures. The naming of the files are - conventional: Bmake.XXX-YYY, - where XXX stands for the message passing software - of your system - (e.g. MPI, PVM) - and - YYY for the system architecture (e.g. LINUX, - SUN4, SUN4SOL). Pick the corresponding file for your combination - of message passing software and system architecture, copy it to - the root directory of BLACS, and rename it - Bmake.inc. Now that we have the correct makefile, - we have to adapt it to the system we are using. -

- -

We start by opening Bamke.inc in our favourite text editor and - taking a look at the following three sections: - -

-

- -

Assuming we have done all of that correctly, we go back to - the BLACS root directory and compile the - library with the command make mpi. -

- -

2. SCALAPACK

- -

The SCALAPACK - library provides high-performance linear algebra routines for - distributed-memory message-passing MIMD - computers. The library can be found on the - official SCALAPACK - webpage. We require the - file scalapack.tgz version <= 1.8.0 only. -

- -

After extracting the file and changing to the directory which - was created, we find a file - called SLmake.inc.example and rename it - to SLmake.inc. In this file we have to set a few - parameters as we did before with BLACS' - own Bmake.inc. - -

-

- -

If all variables are set correctly we can go ahead and compile - the SCALAPACK library with the - command make. -

- -

3. MUMPS

- -

Now we come to the main program for which we are doing all - this. We want to install the parallel sparse direct - solver MUMPS. -

- -

After downloading the solver from its - official webpage, - extracting it, and changing to the directory which was created, we - find a subfolder named - Make.inc where there are bunch of different - Makefiles for different machine architecture. Here it is - important to realize that for each architecture there are two - different files — one with the ending .SEQ - and one without. The makefiles with the extension - .SEQ are the ones required for the sequential - version of MUMPS. Since we want to use MUMPS - in parallel, we take the file - without this extension which looks suitable for the - architecture we are building on and copy this into - the MUMPS root directory and rename it - as Makefile.inc. -

- -

As before, we open the makefile Makefile.inc in - our favourite text editor and start modifying variables: - -

-

- -

- Now we are done with configuration and can - compile MUMPS with the - command make. -

- -

Linking with deal.II

- -

- Support for MUMPS will be enabled automatically - if a system wide installation of MUMPS - can be found. To use a self compiled version, specify -

-
-    -DMUMPS_DIR=/path/to/mumps
-      
on the command line when invoking cmake. -

- -

- For SCALAPACK and BLACS a hint - - if necessary - may be given by -

-
-    -DSCALAPACK_DIR=/path/to/scalapack
-    -DBLACS_DIR=/path/to/blacs
-      
-

- -

- You can override the autodetection by manually specifying -

-
-    -DDEAL_II_WITH_MUMPS=OFF|ON
-      
. -

- -

- Note: Throughout this description of the compilation process - of MUMPS we have emphasised adding the compiler - flag -fPIC. This is a definite requirement if we - are compiling deal.II with shared libraries - (which is the default). If we had preferred to be compiling - deal.II without shared libraries, that's ok too; - in that case we would do exactly the same thing as described above, - but this time omitting the -fPIC flag from the scheme. -
