- 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'
- simpler to write for sampled cutting planes etc.
For example,
slice
{
type cuttingPlane;
point (0 0 0);
normal (0 0 1);
interpolate true;
}
instead of
slice
{
type cuttingPlane;
planeType pointAndNormal;
pointAndNormalDict
{
point (0 0 0);
normal (0 0 1);
}
interpolate true;
}
STYLE: add noexcept to some plane methods
