xSDK 0.7.0 Release

Motivation

Combinations of multiple software packages developed by different groups are essential for large-scale computational science, where the capabilities needed for modeling, simulation, and analysis are broader than any single team has resources to address. The often tedious trial-and-error process of obtaining, configuring, and installing any single tool may arguably be manageable. However, from the perspective of an end-user application scientist, handling each tool’s installation idiosyncrasies can easily become overwhelming when dealing with several packages in combination. Worse, such problems are compounded by the need for consistency among packages to be used within the same application in terms of compiler, compiler versions and options, and common third-party packages such as BLAS and HDF5.

Spack

xsdk-0.7.0-diagram

A goal of xSDK is to simplify the process of working with various xSDK packages in combination. Spack is a package manager for high-performance computing.  We thus provide an xSDK Spack metapackage that includes many xSDK numerical libraries (AMReX, ArborX*, ButterflyPACK, Data Transfer Toolkit (DTK), deal.ii, Ginkgo, HeFFTe, Hypre, libEnsemble, MAGMA, MFEM, Omega_h, PETSc/TAO, PHIST, PLASMA, preCICE, PUMI, SLATE, SLEPc, STRUMPACK, SUNDIALS, SuperLU_dist, Tasmanian,  and Trilinos ) as well as some commonly needed external packages.

Spack allows the xSDK packages to be deployed with a single command.  The user can optionally choose compilers, MPI implementation, and build options.  We are working toward support of combinatorial test dashboards for all xSDK packages.

*Denotes a package released as part of the xSDK for the first time in version 0.7.0.

 xSDK 0.7.0 release components

Final release date: November 12, 2021

The xSDK spack metapackage (version 0.7.0) includes tested release versions of the following xSDK packages:

Users who prefer to work with just one xSDK package rather than several can use Spack to install only that particular package.  Alternatively, they can bypass Spack and instead obtain the package directly from its website and install according to instructions there.

Packages using CUDA

The following packages can be installed with CUDA feature enabled

  • PETSc
  • SUNDIALS
  • MAGMA
  • STRUMPACK
  • Tasmanian
  • Ginkgo
  • HeFFTe
  • SLATE
  • Hypre
  • MFEM
  • AMReX

Packages using ROCM

The following packages can be installed with ROCM feature enabled, but require special handling, see the installxSDK repository for further information

  • AMReX
  • MFEM
  • SUNDIALS
  • MAGMA
  • Tasmanian
  • Ginkgo
  • HeFFTe

Open source packages installed with xSDK packages

Users can view a tree of dependencies for any Spack package, including xSDK, by running ‘spack spec xsdk’.  This is an example of the dependency tree for the xSDK metapackage (with cuda enabled) as of version 0.7.0:
