Intermittent FPE "erroneous arithmetic operation" in gqttq tmad test (for cpp512z with FPTYPE=f only: fix it with 'volatile') #845

Closed valassi closed 6 days ago

valassi commented 1 month ago

While rerunning tests in PR #841 I came across a new FPE "Floating-point exception - erroneous arithmetic operation" in gqttq tmad tests.

This is very surprising because I think that there is actually no change in the code (just some makefile changes leading to file name changes). I will try to rerun the test.

Anyway, for reference the issue is here in tmad/logs_gqttq_mad/log_gqttq_mad_f_inl0_hrd0.txt

valassi commented 1 month ago

Very strange. I have rerun the test and the FPE has disappeared. Closing as not reproducible.

valassi commented 1 month ago

Note: similar issues have resurfaced in susy_gg_t1t1, being debugged in #826

valassi commented 1 month ago

I have found again this SIGFPE in gqttq for FPTYPE=f, while running with the code using Olivier's patch #850 for the susy xsec mismatch #825.

My impression (or hope) is that this is the same issue as #855, i.e. a SIGFPE in fortran aloha_functions.f that can be fixed with volatile (see PR #857). I will test that too.

valassi commented 1 month ago

I have debugged this further.

First point, this is intermittent. Sometimes the code succeeds, sometimes the code fails (rerunning the same executable multiple times). Maybe half half, maybe less.

Second, this is NOT RELATED to the other SIGFPE #855 in rotxxx. So it will not be fixed by #857.

This crash happens deep inside cudacpp, within the color. I managed to create a gdb trace after rebuilding all with -g. This is in 19a2e0cb85e2306affdb143945026623e421b588 from PR #860

I suspect that this is related instead to the iconfig-channel mapping issues that @oliviermattelaer investigated in #852 ?

Anyway, keep this open.

To use the debugger, I added these patches

I retried exacty the same recipe on https://github.com/madgraph5/madgraph4gpu/commit/19a2e0cb85e2306affdb143945026623e421b588

It seems to crash in 1189 instead of 1193? But it looks the same

I changed the name to indicate that this crash is most likely related to iconfig-channel mapping issues.

I will instead remove "iconfig-channel mapping issues" from the name of #855, which is ONLY about the rotxxx crash, most likely unrelated to iconfig-channel mapping issues.

I have almost completed MR #873 which fixes the channelid-iconfig mapping and icolamp issues in #856.

Unfortunately, howver, this des NOT fix this intermittent crash #845.

I have reproduuced it again

cd gq_ttq.mad/SubProcesses/P1_gu_ttxu
make cleanall
make -j FPTYPE=f BACKEND=cpp512z 
./madevent_cpp < /tmp/avalassi/input_gqttq_x1_cudacpp

Using '-g' in make_opts and cudacpp.mk, this sometimes crashes as follows

Program received signal SIGFPE: Floating-point exception - erroneous arithmetic operation.

valassi commented 1 week ago

I have changed the name (previously "Intermittent FPE "erroneous arithmetic operation" in gqttq tmad test (in sigmakin random color selection - iconfig-channel mapping issues?)") because I no longer see a connection to color selection...

valassi commented 1 week ago

I have renamed this issue to mention "(for cpp512z with FPTYPE=f only: fix it with 'volatile')"

Indeed, I checked that this only happens for cpp512z with FPTYPE=f. So it clearly looks like a SIMD-specific optimization issue, like those that I fixed with 'volatile' in many other parts of the code. And indeed I just created a patch that fixes the issue

By the way note this interesting post on SIMD and float, https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90993

This is now fixed in CODEGEN in #874. I think this can be closed when that PR is merged.
