1. Set up Kokkos

You can use the latest version of Kokkos. The experiments of the paper "Multi-threaded Sparse Matrix-Matrix Multiplication for Many-Core and GPU Architectures" uses kokkos-version: 2.04.04

mkdir $HOME/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark
cd $HOME/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark
git clone git@github.com:kokkos/kokkos.git

2. Get KokkosKernels

cd $HOME/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark
git clone git@github.com:kokkos/kokkos-kernels.git

Update: As of 03/07/2018, these functionalities are in the master branch. No need to check out the develop branch.

Currently KokkosKernels-spgemm updates are not on the master branch yet (12/20/2017). Checkout the develop branch.

cd $HOME/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark/kokkos-kernels
git checkout master #git checkout develop #outdated as of 03/07/2018.

3. Update the compileKokkosKernels.sh located at example/buildlib.

cd $HOME/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark/kokkos-kernels/example/buildlib
vi compileKokkosKernels.sh

Below is the example of compileKokkosKernels.sh for Power8 with OpenMP execution space.

KOKKOS_PATH=${HOME}/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark/kokkos #path to kokkos source
KOKKOSKERNELS_SCALARS='double' #we only need double
KOKKOSKERNELS_LAYOUTS=LayoutLeft #the layout types to instantiate.
KOKKOSKERNELS_ORDINALS=int #ordinal types to instantiate
KOKKOSKERNELS_OFFSETS=int #offset types to instantiate
KOKKOSKERNELS_PATH=${HOME}/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark/kokkos-kernels #path to kokkos-kernels top directory.
KOKKOSKERNELS_OPTIONS=eti-only #options for kokkoskernels  
CXXFLAGS="-Wall -pedantic -Werror -O3 -g -Wshadow -Wsign-compare -Wignored-qualifiers -Wempty-body -Wclobbered -Wuninitialized"
CXX=g++
KOKKOS_DEVICES=OpenMP #we only need openmp execution space.
KOKKOS_ARCHS=Power8        #!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!specify the architecture for compilation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KOKKOSKERNELS_TPLS="" 

../../scripts/generate_makefile.bash --kokkoskernels-path=${KOKKOSKERNELS_PATH} --with-scalars=${KOKKOSKERNELS_SCALARS} --with-ordinals=${KOKKOSKERNELS_ORDINALS} --with-offsets=${KOKKOSKERNELS_OFFSETS} --kokkos-path=${KOKKOS_PATH} --with-devices=${KOKKOS_DEVICES} --arch=${KOKKOS_ARCHS} --compiler=${CXX} --with-options=${KOKKOSKERNELS_OPTIONS}  --cxxflags="${CXXFLAGS}" --with-tpls=${KOKKOSKERNELS_TPLS}

Set the compiler.

module load gcc/5.4.0

4. Compile KokkosKernels.

cd $HOME/kokkoskernels_spgemm_benchmark/kokkos-kernels/example/buildlib
./compileKokkosKernels.sh
make build-test -j

5- Running Benchmarks.

  • Allocate the node using appropriate scheduling command.
  • Download a UFL sparse matrix. We are showing it on audikw_1 in this example.
  • Each is run 6 times, which can be changed using "repeat" keyword ("repeat 15" to repeat 15 times.)
  • First run is always discarded as warm-up. For each algorithm below, we run for [32, 64, 128] threads.
  • I am using ".bin" files below for faster I/O handles. ".mtx" files can also be used, based on the suffix correct reader will be called. But for faster experimenting, you can use KokkosKernels_MatrixConverter.exe as below for converint mtx files to bin files.
./KokkosKernels_MatrixConverter.exe --in_mtx audikw_1.mtx --out_mtx audikw_1.bin
  • Set the environment variables, go to the executables folder.

Changing KKSPGEMM cut-off to 1M to use dense accumulators:

All benchmarks use the cut-off for dense accumulators as 250k. Below shows an example of how to change it.
