This package contains SHMEM applications and packages for testing and
evaluation.


MPICH_PREFIX ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE:
----------------------------------

The SHMEM samples require an MPI implementation to run. Sandia
OpenSHMEM requires a Hydra* based MPI to run. The select_mpi script
will look for MVAPICH2 directories matching either
mvapich2*hfi (first) or mvapich* (second).

If desired the MPICH_PREFIX may be exported to control the selection.
Alternatively, a .prefix file can be created in this directory with the
preferred selection.

SHMEM_PREFIX ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE:
----------------------------------

By default, Make will build these programs with Sandia OpenSHMEM installed
by RPM sandia-openshmem_gcc_hfi-devel. SHMEM_PREFIX is also used by the
run_* scripts to define where bin/oshrun is found.

You can override this by setting SHMEM_PREFIX in your environment. For
example:

export SHMEM_PREFIX=/my/copy_of_shmem

The run_* sample runner scripts set SHMEM_PREFIX from a file
.shmem_prefix in the current working directory if that
SHMEM_PREFIX is not already set.

USING THESE TOOLS WITH MPI-SELECTOR:
------------------------------------

SHMEM applications are started using the mpirun from an MPI
implementation such mvapich2.

In OFED (and Intel IFS), the normal method of selecting an MPI is to
use the mpi-selector commands (type "man mpi-selector-menu" and "man
mpi-selector" for details on those commands).

To use mpi-selector with these scripts, add this line to your .bashrc
file:

source /usr/src/opa/mpi_apps/get_selected_mpi.sh

COMPILING THE TEST PROGRAMS:
----------------------------

The top level Makefile will build a simple SHMEM hello_worl application,
using the default (described above) or the value of SHMEM_PREFIX (also
described above).

RUNNING THE TEST PROGRAMS:
--------------------------

A "run_*" script is provided for the applications/benchmark.  These
scripts assume the existence of a local "shmem_hosts" file [alternate name can be
exported in MPI_HOSTS if desired] (in mpirun mode)
and that mpd is already running (if you're using mvapich2 in mpd mode).
For example, to run the barrier test, simply type:

# ./run_barrier 2

The scripts log the output of the SHMEM programs to the
/usr/src/opa/shmem_apps/logs directory.
