Testflo default NUM_PROCS causes tests to fail on centos with Intel compilers
Description
When the tests are run on Intel with testflo -v . or with testflo -v -n 5 (or greater) the tests encounter a bus error
Caught signal number 7 BUS: Bus Error, possibly illegal memory access
It is not well understood why this issue occurs, but it can easily be avoid by passing testflo the arguement -n followed by a number less than or equal to 4 (this maybe greater if your machine has more than 4 cores).
Steps to reproduce issue
Please provide a minimum working example (MWE) if possible
- run lastest centos intel docker image
- navigate to adflow folder and download the test input files
- run the tests with
testflo .
Code versions
List versions only if relevant
- Python 3
- ADflow 2.2.1
To add on to this, it appears to only affect the intel/impi build when testflo is oversubscribing. I cannot replicate this locally with my gcc build.
