Description
likwid-mpirun is a command line application that wraps the vendor-specific mpirun tool and adds calls to
likwid-perfctr(1) to the execution string. The user-given application is ran, measured and the results
returned to the staring node.
Example
1. For standard application:
likwid-mpirun-np32./myApp
Will run 32 MPI processes, each host is filled with as much processes as written in ppn
2. With pinning:
likwid-mpirun-np32-nperdomainS:2./myApp
Will start 32 MPI processes with 2 processes per socket.
3. For hybrid runs:
likwid-mpirun-np32-pinM0:0-3_M1:0-3./myApp
Will start 32 MPI processes with 2 processes per node. Threads of the first process are pinned to the
hardware threads 0-3 in NUMA domain 0 (M0). The OpenMP threads of the second process are pinned to the
first four hardware threads in NUMA domain 1 (M1)

Options
-h,--help
prints a help message to standard output, then exits
-v,--version
prints version information to standard output, then exits
-d,--debug
prints debug messages to standard output
-n,-np,--n,--np<number_of_processes>
specifies how many MPI processes should be started
-hostfile<filename>
specifies the nodes to schedule the MPI processes on. If not given, the environment variables
PBS_NODEFILE, LOADL_HOSTFILE and SLURM_HOSTFILE are checked.
-nperdomain<number_of_processes_in_domain>
specifies the processes per affinity domain (see likwid-pin for info about affinity domains)
-pin<expression>
specifies the pinning for hybrid execution (see likwid-pin for info about affinity domains)
-s,--skip<mask>
Specify skip mask as HEX number. For each set bit the corresponding thread is skipped.
-omp<omptype>
enables hybrid setup. Likwid tries to determine OpenMP type automatically. The only possible value
are intel and gnu-mpi<mpitype>
specifies the MPI implementation that should be used by the wrapper. Possible values are intelmpi,openmpi,slurm and mvapich2-m,--marker
activates the Marker API for the executed MPI processes
-O prints output in CSV not ASCII tables
--mpiopts<opts>
adds options for the underlying MPI implementation. Please use proper quoting.
-- stops parsing arguments for likwid-mpirun.
