parRSB

  • Computes high quality partitionings using recursive spectral bisection (RSB)
  • Requires MPI and gslib (requires version 1.0.8 or later)

Note, any initial distribution of mesh elements is valid.

Build Instructions

Download gslib from here and follow the build instructions there to build it. Then set the GSLIBPATH variable to point to the gslib build directory.

make CC=mpicc GSLIBPATH=<path to gslib>/build  all

Run Example

You can run both genmap and gencon examples in build/examples directory after building parRSB. Examples invoked with all available options are shown below.

cd build/examples
mpirun -np 4 ./genmap --mesh ethier --nactive=2 --tol=0.2 --test
mpirun -np 4 ./gencon --mesh ethier --tol=0.2 --test
  • --mesh (required) is the name of the input mesh (.re2 file) and is required.
  • --tol (optional, default = 0.2) is the tolerance used for finding mesh connectivity.
  • --test (optional) Run checks in genmap or gencon examples.
  • --dump (optional) Dump .co2 and/or .ma2 file after running gencon and/or genmap respectively.
  • --nactive (optional, default: INT_MAX) controls how many MPI ranks are active when running genmap.

Please note that all the optional arguments requires a = sign when being specified in the command line.

C Interface

int parrsb_part_mesh(int *part, int *seq, long long *vtx, double *coord,
                     int nel, int nv, parrsb_options opts, MPI_Comm comm)

See example/genmap.c for an example.

Parameters

nel  [in] : Numer of local elements.
nv   [in] : Number of vertices in a single element (has to be same the for all).
vtx  [in] : Vertices of `nel` elements, `nv` entries for each element (dense
            unique IDs, size = nel * nv).
coord[in] : Coordinates of `nel` elements, should be in the same order as vtx
            (size = nel * dimesnion of the mesh).
opts [in] : parRSB configuration options (See below for a detailed explanation).
comm [in] : MPI Communicator (size determines number of partitions).
part [out]: Destination processor number for each element after partition
            (size = nel).
seq  [out]: Order of element `i` in processor `part[i]` after partition
            (size = nel).

opts is a struct of type parrsb_options declared in parRSB.h.

typedef struct {
  // General options
  int partitioner; // Partition algo: 0 - RSB, 1 - RCB, 2 - RIB (Default: 0)
  int tagged;      // Tagged partitioning: 0 - No, 1 - Yes (Default: 0)
  int levels;      // Number of levels: 1, or 2 (Default: 2)
  int find_disconnected_comps; // Find number of components: 0 - No, 1 - Yes
                               // (Default: 1)
  int repair; // Repair disconnected components: 0 - No, 1 - Yes (Default: 0)
  int verbose_level; // Verbose level: 0, 1, 2, .. etc (Default: 1)
  int profile_level; // Profile level: 0, 1, 2, .. etc (Default: 0)
  // RSB common (Lanczos and MG) options
  int rsb_algo; // RSB algo: 0 - Lanczos, 1 - MG (Default: 0)
  int rsb_pre;  // RSB pre-partition : 0 - None, 1 - RCB , 2 - RIB (Default: 1)
  int rsb_max_iter;   // Max iterations in Lanczos / MG (Default: 50)
  int rsb_max_passes; // Max Lanczos restarts / Inverse iterations (Default: 50)
  double rsb_tol;     // Tolerance for Lanczos or RQI (Default: 1e-5)
  int rsb_dump_stats; // Dump partition statistics to a text file.
  // RSB MG specific options
  int rsb_mg_grammian; // MG Grammian: 0 or 1 (Default: 0)
  int rsb_mg_factor;   // MG Coarsening factor (Default: 2, should be > 1)
} parrsb_options;

User can use parrsb_default_options struct instance to pass default options to parrsb_part_mesh routine.

All of these options can be controlled at runtime by setting the relevant environment variable (named PARRSB_<OPT_NAME>) as well. Enviornment variable values will override what is passed to parrsb_part_mesh routine.

Below is a full list of some of environment variables:

PARRSB_PARTITIONER
PARRSB_TAGGED
PARRSB_LEVELS
PARRSB_FIND_DISCONNECTED_COMPONENTS
PARRSB_REPAIR
PARRSB_VERBOSE_LEVEL
PARRSB_PROFILE_LEVEL

PARRSB_RSB_ALGO
PARRSB_RSB_PRE
PARRSB_RSB_MAX_ITER
PARRSB_RSB_MAX_PASSES
PARRSB_RSB_TOL
