http://developer.amd.com/amd-aocc/

Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size limit
'ulimit -l 2097152' was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit
runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>
'echo 8 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio' run as root to limit dirty cache to 8% of
memory.
'echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness' run as root to limit swap usage to minimum
necessary.
'echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode' run as root to free node-local memory
and avoid remote memory usage.
'sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' run as root to reset filesystem caches.
'sysctl -w kernel.randomize_va_space=0' run as root to disable address space layout
randomization (ASLR) to reduce run-to-run variability.
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled' and
'echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag' run as root for peak
integer runs and all FP runs to enable Transparent Hugepages (THP).
'cpupower frequency-set -g performance' run as root to set the scaling governor to
performance.

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
     "/home/cpu2017/amd_speed_aocc300_milan_B_lib/64;/home/cpu2017/amd_speed_
     aocc300_milan_B_lib/32:"
MALLOC_CONF = "retain:true"
OMP_DYNAMIC = "false"
OMP_SCHEDULE = "static"
OMP_STACKSIZE = "592M"
OMP_THREAD_LIMIT = "32"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 603.bwaves_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 619.lbm_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

Environment variables set by runcpu during the 654.roms_s peak run:
GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY = "0-31"

General Notes

Binaries were compiled on a system with 2x AMD EPYC 7742 CPU + 1TiB Memory using OpenSUSE 15.2

NA: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5754 (Meltdown)
is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
Yes: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5753 (Spectre variant 1)
is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
Yes: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre variant 2)
is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
