In the diagonal chare (factorDiagBlock):
- factoriDiagBlock is critical
- colMax is the target of a reduction, and lies on the critical path in
the factorization
- doPivot is sent to both itself, and all the chares in its row and
below. Urgency varies as follows:
* local invocation is immediately critical, as is any remote partner
- stop waiting on a self send
* invocation on the column below is critical before the next column
can proceed
* the row to the right and any partner chares need to hear before
subsequent updates can happen
* the sub-matrix below and to the right needs to hear before they
can participate in factoring the next column panel or compute
trailing updates
* the sub-matrix below and to the left needs to hear before they can
contribute their chunk of the solution
- sendPivotData is critical when it happens
- sendUSegment needs to be delivered and processed before the next
reduction to colMax can start
In the off-diagonal chares
- doPivot/sendPivotData is interleaved with trailing updates, and can
block execution of memory-relieving trailing updates
- recvL/recvU are trivial and can be necessary to relieve memory
pressure, by scheduling a trailing update
- trailing updates need to happen before a block is part of the active
panel, but should otherwise be delayed
- Above diagonal doPivot/sendPivotData need to happen before the
portion of U can be computed. Very important at the left end,
progressively less so as we move right. sendPivotData can be
individually prioritized, since it's a point-to-point message
- processComputeU's priority depends on how much of the computation
hinges on its completion. Above a soon-to-be-active diagonal block,
important, further right less so.
- Below diagonal, the active sendPivotData calls are critical, and
multicastRecvL is of varying importance depending on the
recipient. LATER sendPivotData calls aren't needed until the solve.
