Detailed Description

Main introspector object for the simulation.

All models inherit from this. Introspection interface is a unified way to gather statistics and arbitrary data from components.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum SST::Introspector::collect_type

Types of boost MPI collective operations that introspector can perform.

enum SST::Introspector::mpi_operation

Types of funciton objects for the reduce collective.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SST::Introspector::Introspector ( )

Constructor.

Generally only called by the factory class.

Parameters

id	Unique introspector ID

References arrayvalue.

Member Function Documentation

void SST::Introspector::collectInt	(	collect_type	ctype,
		uint64_t	invalue,
		mpi_operation	op = `NOT_APPLICABLE`,
		int	rank = `0`
	)

Introspectors communicate among themselves with Boost MPI to exchange their integer data, invalue.

This function initiates a specific type of collective communicaiton indicated by ctype. The data are operated based on ctype and on the MPI operation, op. An introspector type can have periodic collective communication by calling this function in a member function registered with an event handler that is triggered by a clock.

Parameters

ctype	Types of collective communication. Currently supported options are Broadcast, (all)gather, and (all)reduce
invalue	The local value to be communicated
op	Types of the MPI operations for the (all)reduce algorithm to combine the values. Currently supported options are summarize, minimum and maximum. Default is set to none
rank	The rank where the introspector resides. Default is set to 0. If ctype is broadcast, rank here indicates the rank that will transmitting the value

References arrayvalue, maxvalue, minvalue, and value.

virtual void SST::Introspector::finish ( )

inlinevirtual

Called after simulation completes, but before objects are destroyed.

A good place to print out statistics.

template<typename typeT >

typeT SST::Introspector::getData	(	IntrospectedComponent *	c,
		std::string	dataname
	)

Query the components indicated by "c" to retrieve components' statistics & data.

Return the value of the data indicated by "dataname". The function is usually called by introspector-pull mechanism in Introspector::triggeredUpdate().

Parameters

c	Pointer to the component
dataname	Name of the data

References SST::IntrospectedComponent::getMonitor().

std::list< IntrospectedComponent * > SST::Introspector::getModelsByName ( const std::string CompName )

Get component of a certain type indicated by CompName on this rank.

Name is unique so the fuction actually returns a list with only one component. This function is usually used in Introspector::setup().

Parameters

CompName Component's name

References SST::Simulation::getComponent(), SST::Simulation::getSimulation(), and MyCompList.

std::list< IntrospectedComponent * > SST::Introspector::getModelsByType ( const std::string CompType )

Get component of a certain type indicated by CompType on this rank.

If CompType is blank, a list of all local components is returned. This function is usually used in Introspector::setup().

Parameters

CompType Component's type

References SST::Simulation::getComponentInfoMap(), SST::Simulation::getSimulation(), and MyCompList.

void SST::Introspector::oneTimeCollect	(	SimTime_t	time,
		Event::HandlerBase *	functor
	)

One time introspectors collective communication.

The event handling functors that calls a given member communication function is inserted into the queue and will be triggered at time specified by, time. The introspector-write implements their own communication function if they want something other than the basic collective operations, broadcast, (all)reduce and (all)gather.

Parameters

time	The simulation time when the introspectors will communicate among themselves
functor	Event handling functor that invokes member communication function

References SST::Simulation::getSimulation(), and SST::Simulation::insertActivity().

TimeConverter * SST::Introspector::registerClock	(	std::string	freq,
		Clock::HandlerBase *	handler
	)

Registers a clock for this component.

Parameters

freq	Frequency for the clock in SI units
handler	Pointer to Clock::HandlerBase which is to be invoked at the specified interval
regAll	Should this clock perioud be used as the default time base for all of the links connected to this component

References defaultTimeBase, SST::Simulation::getSimulation(), and SST::Simulation::registerClock().

virtual void SST::Introspector::setup ( )

inlinevirtual

Called after all components/introspectors have been constructed, but before simulation time has begun.

virtual bool SST::Introspector::triggeredUpdate ( )

inlinevirtual

Introspector-writers will implement their own triggeredUpdate function.

This function calls Introspector::getData() to retrieve components' data, and is a good place to manipulate the data (print to screen, MPI collective communication, etc).
