30
CHAPTER 3. DEBUGGERS
user interface that wins praise for ease-of-use and capability, it is quite simply an integral part of ecient software development. Simplifying debugging at scale For multi-threaded or OpenMP development, Allinea DDT enables threads to be controlled individually and collectively with advanced capabilities for comparing data across threads. The Parallel Stack Viewer is a unique way to see the program state of all processes and threads at a glance. You can easily spot rogue processes or threads and even using it to dene new control groups, making massive parallel programs far easier to manage. The Allinea DDT interface scales amazingly to provide the same clarity of information at thousands of processes as at a handful. It highlights commonality and dierences using summary views and data comparisons to focus your attention. Allinea DDT has been proven at scale on the most powerful systems - including debugging applications at over 200,000 cores simultaneously. Allinea DDT puts you in control of your application, whether you are working with a workstation or a thousand processor, high-performance cluster. Debug code on the CPU and GPU from a single tool This powerful combination gives you all the advanced debugging features of Allinea DDT but with the enhanced ability to debug CUDA code. With a single tool, you can debug hybrid MPI, OpenMP and CUDA applications on a single workstation or GPU cluster. Features such as the detection of invalid memory accesses, the visualization of GPU data, and GPU thread control have been designed to help you nd the GPU porting bugs quickly and easily. Allinea DDT supports the NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit and is fully compatible with NVIDIAs Fermi architecture.

gnu gdb
A -g without further optimization option (such as -O2) usually disables optimization, which some compiler have otherwise by default. -g can also be used with optimization; however, the optimization makes debugging more dicult (even though compilers might try hard to keep some debugging information available). Additionally, -g may or may not have an eect on code generation - especially when used together with optimization (such as -O2); some compiles generate the same code with debug information than without, others allow -g -O2 but generate slightly dierent code than with only -O2. Using -O1 -g is often a good compromise between performance and debuggability as it does some optimization but usually no inlining and other debugging unfriendly optimizations. For GCC: * GCC by default has no optimization (-O0), thus -g doesnt change the optimization level. * GCC generates the same code with and without -g for all optimization levels [if not, it is a bug] * GCC 4.8 has the new option -Og, which enables optimizations that do not interfere with debugging. In addition, newer debug formats (DWARF, latest is DWARF4) allow for better debugging support, but require also newer debugging tools. For instance, -gdwarf-4
31
is the default in GCC with/since 4.8 but requires GDB 7.5, Valgrind 3.8 and elftools 0.154. GCC also supports (since 4.7) a GNU extension (supported by GDB 7.4, proposed for DWARF5) entry value/ call site which allows - with restrictions - to debug function calls where the argument has been passed in registers. (For completeness: DWARF4 is supported - optionally - since GCC 4.6.)
Visit http://www.roguewave.com/products/totalview.aspx for detailed information. Here is some information taken from the above site. TotalView is a GUI-based source code defect analysis tool that gives you unprecedented control over processes and thread execution and visibility into program state and variables. It allows you to debug one or many processes and/or threads in a single window with complete control over program execution. This allows you to set breakpoints, stepping line by line through the code on a single thread, or with coordinated groups of processes or threads, and run or halt arbitrary sets of processes or threads. You can reproduce and troubleshoot dicult problems that can occur in concurrent programs that take advantage of threads, OpenMP, MPI, GPUs or coprocessors. TotalView provides analytical displays of the state of your running program for ecient debugging of memory errors and leaks and diagnosis of subtle problems like deadlocks and race conditions. Whether you are a scientic and technical computing veteran, or a software professional new to the development challenges of multi-core or parallel applications, TotalView gives you the insight needed to nd and correct errors quickly, validate prototypes, verify calculations and certify code. TotalView works with C, C++ and Fortran applications written for Linux (including the Blue Gene platforms), UNIX and Mac OS X platforms. It includes sophisticated memory debugging and analysis, reverse debugging, Xeon Phi coprocessor and OpenACC / CUDA debugging capabilities. A tutorial is available at https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/totalview/ Here is some additional information from that site. TotalView is a sophisticated and powerful tool used for debugging and analyzing both serial and parallel programs. TotalView provides source level debugging for serial, parallel, multi-process and multi-threaded codes, and can be used in a variety

CHAPTER 3. DEBUGGERS
of UNIX environments, including those with distributed, clustered, stand-alone and SMP machines. TotalView provides both a graphical user interface and command line interface. TotalView has been selected as the Department of Energys ASC debugger of choice for it HPC platforms. This tutorial has three parts, each of which includes a lab exercise. Part 1 begins with an overview of TotalView and then provides detailed instructions on how to set up and use its basic functions. Part 2 continues by introducing a number of new functions and also providing a more in-depth look at some of the basic functions. Part 3 covers parallel debugging, including threads, MPI, OpenMP and hybrid programs. Part 3 concludes with a discussion on debugging in batch mode. Level/Prerequisites: This tutorial is one of the eight tutorials in the 4+ day Using LLNLs Supercomputers workshop. It is intended for those who are new to TotalView. A basic understanding of parallel programming in C or Fortran is required.

Valgrind
Visit http://valgrind.org/ for more information. Here is an extract taken from that site. Valgrind is an instrumentation framework for building dynamic analysis tools. There are Valgrind tools that can automatically detect many memory management and threading bugs, and prole your programs in detail. You can also use Valgrind to build new tools. The Valgrind distribution currently includes six production-quality tools: a memory error detector, two thread error detectors, a cache and branch-prediction proler, a call-graph generating cache and branch-prediction proler, and a heap proler. It also includes three experimental tools: a heap/stack/global array overrun detector, a second heap proler that examines how heap blocks are used, and a SimPoint basic block vector generator. It runs on the following platforms: X86/Linux, AMD64/Linux, ARM/Linux, PPC32/Linux, PPC64/Linux, S390X/Linux, MIPS/Linux, ARM/Android (2.3.x and later), X86/Android (4.0 and later), X86/Darwin and AMD64/Darwin (Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7, with limited support for 10.8). Valgrind is Open Source and or Free Software, and is freely available under the GNU General Public License, version 2. Here is an extract from the Wikipedia entry on Valgrind. Valgrind is a GPL licensed programming tool for memory debugging, memory leak detection, and proling. It is named after the main entrance to Valhalla in Norse mythology. Valgrind was originally designed to be a free memory debugging tool for Linux on x86, but has since evolved to become a generic framework for creating dynamic analysis tools such as checkers and prolers. It is used by a number of Linux-based projects.[3] Since version 3.5, Valgrind also works on Mac OS X. The orig-
3.10. WINDBG
33
inal author of Valgrind is Julian Seward, who in 2006 won a Google-OReilly Open Source Award for his work on Valgrind. Several others have also made signicant contributions, including Cerion Armour-Brown, Jeremy Fitzhardinge, Tom Hughes, Nicholas Nethercote, Paul Mackerras, Dirk Mueller, Bart Van Assche, Josef Weidendorfer and Robert Walsh. Valgrind is in essence a virtual machine using just-in-time (JIT) compilation techniques, including dynamic recompilation. Nothing from the original program ever gets run directly on the host processor. Instead, Valgrind rst translates the program into a temporary, simpler form called Intermediate Representation (IR), which is a processor-neutral, SSA-based form. After the conversion, a tool (see below) is free to do whatever transformations it would like on the IR, before Valgrind translates the IR back into machine code and lets the host processor run it. Even though it could use dynamic translation (that is, the host and target processors are from dierent architectures), it doesnt. Valgrind recompiles binary code to run on host and target (or simulated) CPUs of the same architecture.

WinDbg
Van I had been using totalview. With Lahey and Fujitsu 6.20e on Linux, it was the only debugger that understood their defective debugging tables including the Fujitsu debugger. But... the license for totalview is expensive. So when we switched from LF95 to Intel, and Intel provided idb, we started using idb. I wish we still had totalview. idb is dicult to use, especially to view arrays. Its also rather slow. Bill A related topic would be corresponding compiler support. Typically compilers will optimize away parts of the code and discard symbol information, making the use of debuggers problematic. An option like -g often cures this, but at the expense of turning o most optimization. Options for intermediate cases between -g and (none) would be useful to document. 1) Print * 2) Totalview www.roguewave.com/products/totalview.aspx 3) DDT www.allinea.com/products/ddt 4) gdb and lgdb (parallel version of gdb) Totalview, DDT, and lgdb support parallel codes, which is increasingly a requirement. gdb is free and powerful; the user interface has a high nerd factor.

It is intended for making graphical images of publication quality with minimum eort on the part of the user. For most applications, the program can be device-independent, and the output can be directed to the appropriate device at run time. The PGPLOT library consists of two major parts: a device-independent part and a set of device-dependent device handler subroutines for output on various terminals, image displays, dot-matrix printers, laser printers, and pen plotters. Common le formats supported include PostScript and GIF. PGPLOT itself is written mostly in standard Fortran-77, with a few non-standard, system-dependent subroutines. PGPLOT subroutines can be called directly from a

The Fortran language has been standardised a number of times Fortran 66 Fortran 77 Fortran 90 Fortran 95 Fortran 2003 Fortran 2008
58
and Fortran 2008 was completed in 2010. The Fortran 90 standard added whole array features and a WHERE construct that were aimed at parallel programming. The Fortran 95 standard added the FORALL construct, and PURE and ELEMENTAL procedures to help with parallel programming. Fortran 2008 added coarrays. Independently of the Fortran Standards Committees there have been a number of other developments aimed at parallel programming including HPF MPI OpenMP Posix Threads and each of these is covered in more depth below. Two tutorials on parallel programming are given below. http://www.mhpcc.edu/training/workshop/parallel_intro/MAIN.html

Refactoring
Wikipedia has a detailed coverage of code refactoring that is a good place to start. Have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring Here is their rst paragraph. Code refactoring is disciplined technique for restructuring an existing body of code, altering its internal structure without changing its external behavior, undertaken in order to improve some of the nonfunctional attributes of the software. Typically, this is done by applying series of refactorings, each of which is a (usually) tiny change in a computer programs source code that does not modify its functional requirements. Advantages include improved code readability and reduced complexity to improve the maintainability of the source code, as well as a more expressive internal architecture or object model to improve extensibility. Photran is listed in the Wikipedia entry as a Fortran refactoring tool.

Forcheck
A Fortran analyzer and programming aid, here is an extract describing the product. is the oldest and most comprehensive Fortran verier on the market. It performs a full static analysis of an entire Fortran program or a separate analysis of one or more subprograms. detects more anomalies in your program than the compiler. Because it locates bugs as early in the development phase as possible, it saves you time and helps you to produce more reliable programs. is ideally suited to get a fast insight in existing and legacy programs. It composes optimal documentation with a call-tree and cross-reference tables both on the program-unit as on the program level. can be used as a software engineering tool in the various stages of the development process. can verify the conformance to the Fortran standards. Moreover it supports many language extensions of all popular compilers. FORCHECK is fully congurable so you can tune the analysis and output to your needs. can store the global information of the analyzed program-units in libraries. You can reference these libraries in subsequent FORCHECK runs to verify the consistency of all references and common-blocks. is very suitable as a cross-platform development tool. is available on many platforms from PC to supercomputer. It supports most Fortran extensions of all popular compilers. is sold with full guarantee and support. http://www.forcheck.nl/

Usenet news hosted Fortran list. Covers all aspects of Fortran. Usenet is a worldwide distributed Internet discussion system. Users read and post messages (called articles or posts, and collectively termed news) to one or more categories, known as newsgroups. Discussions are generally threaded with modern news reader software. Usenet is distributed amongst a large, changing set of servers that store and forward messages to one another in so-called news feeds. Individual users may read messages from and post messages to a local server operated by their Internet service provider, university, or employer. Newsreader clients Newsgroups are typically accessed with special client software that connects to a news server. Newsreader clients are available for all major operating systems. Web accessible newsgroups

Web front ends to newsgroups mean that many people now no longer need to use download and install or congure a news reader client Google Groups is one such web based front end and web browsers can access Google Groups. Free usenet news service http://www.eternal-september.org/ Welcome to news.eternal-september.org news.eternal-september.org is a private project providing free access to text-only Usenet News. The server has a 100MBit connection to several Internet backbones and is integrated into the Usenet via more than 60 peers. Free access to the news server news.eternal-september.org provides free read and write access to all text newsgroups. It requires a registration that can be done online. http://groups.google.co.uk/group/comp.lang.fortran?lnk=lr http://groups.google.ca/group/comp.lang.fortran
