Score-P
=======

Description
-----------

The Score-P measurement infrastructure is a highly scalable and easy-to-use tool suite for profiling, event tracing, and online analysis of HPC applications.

User instructions
-----------------

Score-P is available via the modules system.  To add it to your environment run:

.. code-block:: bash

    $ module load score-p/1.4.2

Note that Score-P is available for specific compiler and MPI versions.

Score-P is usually used within a profiler such as :ref:`Scalasca` rather than directly.

Admin notes
-----------

Score-P is highly recommended for :ref:`Scalasca`, so I compiled versions for both the Intel and GNU compiler families.

Compilation used the standard autoconf approach:

.. code-block:: bash

    wget http://www.vi-hps.org/upload/packages/scorep/scorep-3.1.tar.gz
    tar -xf scorep-3.1.tar.gz

    # Intel version
    mkdir build-intel2017ompi21; cd build-intel2017ompi21
    ml intel openmpi cube
    ../scorep-3.1/configure --prefix=/common/debian/9.1/MPI/intel/2017.4/openmpi/2.1/score-p/score-p-3.1 --with-mpi=openmpi CC=icc CXX=icpc FC=ifort F77=ifort
    make
    make install

    # GCC version
    cd ..; mkdir build-gcc63ompi21; cd build-gcc63ompi21
    ml purge; ml gcc openmpi cube
    ../scorep-3.1/configure --prefix=/common/debian/9.1/MPI/gcc/6.3/openmpi/2.1/score-p/score-p-3.1 --with-mpi=openmpi
    make
    make install
