2022/08/10 Meeting

Agenda

• Migrate VTK-h use of worklets into VTK-m
• Still have HIP issues with full dependency stack (RAJA)

Discussion Topics:

• New feature:

  • custom data set bounds: https://github.com/Alpine-DAV/ascent/pull/968

• Spack Update

  • Moved to use latest Spack
  • Done updating to use VTK-M 1.8
  • Check list / issues: https://github.com/Alpine-DAV/ascent/issues/949
  • Stuck on ROCm (appears to be a spack build env issue)
    • We are pivoting to build a CI container with simple script instead of spack.

• Great Amalgamation Progress Report

  • These final steps are paused until we have ROCm CI testing in place:
  • Still working on merge for long standing expressions refactor
  • Right before 0.9.0 release, we will finish with some reorg of dir structures.

• Some AMD GPU flags from our stack are leaking into AMR Wind. We should track this down, Hank has a concrete example and will create a ticket.
