Tests

ga

  • global/testing/testmult.x didn't finish within 10 minutes and was killed manually. (FAIL)
    • 3 out of 4 processes were waiting something and the remaining one seemed to be sending something. (deadlocked?)
    • changing optimization flags GA_FOPT etc. didn't help.

molpro

  • Serial quicktest passed without any problems.
  • For parallel test, gly2_pnolccsd.test failed with error (saying "failure from BLAS/LAPACK").

Notes

  • gcc-9 was employed.
  • Employing mkl on GA compilation caused various problems. We thus simply avoid mkl on GA installation.
  • If default data transfer scheme was employed for GA (i.e. without --with-mpi3), various molpro tests (such as acrolein_excincr.test) failed. (not a numerical error; didn't finish)
    • --with-mpi-pr not tested.
    • --with-ofi failed compilation.
  • This version of molpro can't use 8 byte integer interface of blas/lapack (not very sure, though).
  • BLAS/LAPACK of GA and Molpro must be compatible; 4 byte integer interface one was employed both for GA and Molpro.
  • If MKL 2020.0.2 was employed, gly2_pnolccsd.test still failed and some of other tests (such as h2o_pnolccsdf12.test and h2o_pnotriples.test) failed additionally. We thus chose MKL 2018.0.4.
