- the special MacOS dlopen handling (commit f584ec97d0)
did not fully solve the problem with SIP clearing.
Eg, sourcing the RunFunctions (for runParallel) triggers SIP and
clears DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. With the cleared path it finds the dummy
libraries: the dummy Pstream::init() fails.
- for simulations where the yPlus is needed for other purposes or
just for obtaining information on the patches it can be useful
to disable field writing and save disk space.
The 'writeFields' flag (as per some other function objects)
has been added control writing the yPlus volume field.
If unspecified, the default value is 'true' so that the yPlus
function object continues to work as before.
However, this default may change to 'false' in the future to align
with other function objects.
ENH: wallShearStress: support disable of field writing
- similar to yPlus, the write() method combines writing information
and writing the fields. The 'writeFields' flag allows some
separation of that logic.
- provides a more succinct way of writing
{fa,fv}PatchField<Type>::patchInternalField(*this)
as well as a consistent naming that can be used for patches derived
from valuePointPatchField
ENH: readGradientEntry helper method for fixedGradient conditions
- simplifies coding and logic.
- support different read construct modes for fixedGradient
- can be broadly categorised as 'unthreaded'
or 'collated' (threading requirement depends on buffering)
without other opaque inheritances.
CONFIG: add hostUncollated to bash completion prompt
- directory discovery originally designed for a sub-dir location
(eg, etc/openfoam) but failed if called from within the sub-dir
itself.
Now simply assume it is located in the project directory or the etc/
sub-dir, so that it can also be relocated into the project directory
in the future (pending changes to RPM and debian packaging)
- previously had an additional stack for freedRequests_,
which were used to 'remember' locations into the list of
outstandingRequests_ that were handled by 'waitRequest()'.
This was principally done for sanity checks on shutdown,
but we now just test for any outstanding requests that
are *not* MPI_REQUEST_NULL instead (much simpler).
The framework with freedRequests_ also had a provision to 'recycle'
them by popping from that stack, but this is rather fragile since it
would only triggered by some collectives
(MPI_Iallreduce, MPI_Ialltoall, MPI_Igather, MPI_Iscatter)
with no guarantee that these will all be properly removed again.
There was also no pruning of extraneous indices.
ENH: consolidate internal reset/push of requests
- replace duplicate code with inline functions
reset_request(), push_request()
ENH: null out trailing requests
- extra safety (paranoia) for the UPstream::Request versions
of finishedRequests(), waitAnyRequest()
CONFIG: document nPollProcInterfaces in etc/controlDict
- still experimental, but at least make the keyword known
- separate broadcast times from reduce/gather/scatter time
- separate wait times from all-to-all time
- support invocation counts, split off requests time/count
from others to avoid flooding the counts
- support 'detail' switch to increase the output information.
Format may change in the future
- simplifies code, consistent with other matrix transfer functions.
Use a setter method.
STYLE: AMIInterpolation::upToDate(bool) setter method
ENH: add guards to avoid float-compressed transfer of integral types
STYLE: drop unused debug member from abstract interface classes
- since ensight format is always float and also always written
component-wise, perform the double -> float narrowing when
extracting the components. This reduces the amount of data
transferred between processors.
ENH: avoid vtk/ensight parallel communication of empty messages
- since ensight writes by element type (eg, tet, hex, polyhedral) the
individual written field sections will tend to be relatively sparse.
Skip zero-size messages, which should help reduce some of the
synchronization bottlenecks.
ENH: use 'data chunking' when writing ensight files in parallel
- since ensight fields are written on a per-element basis, the
corresponding segment can become rather sparsely distributed. With
'data chunking', we attempt to get as many send/recv messages in
before flushing the buffer for writing. This should make the
sequential send/recv less affected by the IO time.
ENH: allow use of an external buffer when writing ensight components
STYLE: remove last vestiges of autoPtr<ensightFile> for output routines
- eg, for partially incomplete systems (without libz devel header)
ENH: clearer binding of dummy Pstream in OpenFOAM/Make/options
- link of dummy stub Pstream now contingent on linking libOpenFOAM as
well. This makes the purpose slightly clearer
ENH: cleaner option naming/handling in wmake script
- allow special purpose -no-openfoam option.
Eg, compiling test programs without OpenFOAM and Pstream libraries
but using the rest of the wmake system.
ENH: add +openmp support into WM_COMPILE_CONTROL (#2633)
- this adds compile/link flags for openmp.
For single-use, can also use 'wmake -openmp'.
If both +openmp and ~openmp are specified in WM_COMPILE_CONTROL
the ~openmp will have priority.
This is actually done indirectly since ~openmp will set empty
COMP_OPENMP, LINK_OPENMP internal variables, which the +openmp then
adds to the c++FLAGS and linkexe targets (ie, won't actually add
anything).
ENH: add +ccache or ccache=... support into WM_COMPILE_CONTROL (#2633)
- with the first version (+ccache), simply use ccache from the path
without any extra options.
- with the second version (ccache=...), can be more specific about
what is called.
Using "+ccache" is identical to "ccache=ccache", but the later could
be used in other ways. For example,
ccache=/strange/install/path/ccache
ccache=</path/my-tooling --option>
Have the choice of unquoted, single or double quoted or '< >' quoted
STYLE: relocate FOAM_EXTRA_LDFLAGS in general makefile
- removes clutter for different linkers (eg, gold, mold, ldd)
making it easier to extend for other linkers.
STYLE: protect makefile checks with 'strip' function
- uses '-g -DFULLDEBUG' (like Debug), but with -O3 (like Opt).
This adds in debug symbols and FULLDEBUG code segments (good for
code development) but retains -O3 optimizations and code paths and
avoids the much slower -O0 associated with 'Debug'.
- add in central wmake/General/common/{c,c++}XXX tuning,
which helps reduce the number of nearly identical files
ENH: add support for wmake -debug-Og
- introduce a FOAM_LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to shadow
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on MacOS.
The DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH cannot be modified via sub
shells etc when SIP is active. This helps circumvent these
restrictions, which is obviously a hack, but seems to be required.
COMP: disable -ftrapping-math in geompack for MacOS
- barycentric coordinates in interpolation (instead of x/y/z)
- ease U (velocity) requirement.
Needn't be named in the sampled fields.
- default tracking direction is 'forward'
