Technical Overview
SIONlib is a library for writing and reading binary data to/from several thousands of processors into one or a small number of physical files. For parallel access to files only the open and close functions are collective while writing and reading file can be done asynchronously. SIONlib provides a SIONlib file handle which substitutes the C file pointer.
SIONlib can be used by the OTF2 trace format in a special way, to avoid conflicts when instrumenting applications that use SIONlib themselves. This is known as SIONlib-L (for libraries) and is a separate download.

Build system
If other, please describe:
Does the current build system support staged path installations? For example:
make install DESTIR=/tmp/foo(or equivalent)Does component run in user space or are administrative credentials required?
Does component require post-installation configuration.
If yes, please describe briefly: The installation of SIONlib builds a number of libraries. In order to simplify the correct choice of paths and libraries the utility sionconfig outputs the correct combination of options for compiling (–cflags) or linking (–libs):
Usage: sionconfig Print compiler and linker flags SIONlib. (--com|--ser|--omp|--mpi|--ompi|--gen) select SIONlib API (--cflags|--libs|--path) select output of sionconfig [--32|--64] Precision [--be] [--fe] [--mic] Cross compile [--gcc] for GCC Compiler [--c|--f77|--f90|--cxx] Language selection
