<para>CVS is a convenient tool to keep up-to-date a personal copy of the |
| 232 |
|
MITgcm code (see: <ulink url="http://mitgcm.org/public/using_cvs.html"> |
| 233 |
|
using CVS </ulink>). The same tool is used by developers to |
| 234 |
|
incorporate any change into the repository. However, this later |
| 235 |

function requires specific settings, as detailed here after:</para> |

"mitgcm.org" with the proper group setting (e.g., |

group "gcmctrb" to add/modify code into MITgcm_contrib). |
| 241 |
|
This kind of account is granted only upon well motivated request. |
| 242 |
|
The access to the server mitgcm.org is through ssh-key authorization |
| 243 |
|
which will need to be set properly on both side (on your local machine |
| 244 |
|
and on your server account). You need to be able to |
| 245 |
|
to ssh to mitgcm.org (or <filename>ssh MY_USER_NAME@mitgcm.org</filename> |
| 246 |
|
in case of different user-name on both sides) to proceed further.</para> |

<para>Many Open Source projects use the "GNU Autotools" to help streamline |
| 399 |
|
the build process for various Unix and Unix-like architectures. For a |
| 400 |
|
user, the result is the common "configure" (that is, |
| 401 |
|
"<filename>./configure && make && make install</filename>") commands. |
| 402 |
|
For MITgcm, the process is similar. Typical commands are:</para> |

<para>This specifies the "options file" that should be used for a |

particular build. The options file is a convenient and |
| 502 |
|
machine-indepenent way of specifying parameters such as the |
| 503 |
|
FORTRAN compiler (<filename>FC=</>), FORTRAN compiler |
| 504 |
|
optimization flags (<filename>FFLAGS=</>), and the locations of |
| 505 |
|
various platform- and/or machine-specific tools |
| 506 |
|
(eg. <filename>MAKEDEPEND=</>). As with <filename>genmake2</>, |
| 507 |

all options files should be written to be compatible with |

Bourne--shell ("sh" or "BASH v1") syntax. Examples of various |

options files can be found in |

|
|
| 512 |
|
<para>If no "optfile" is specified (either through the command lin |

or the environment variable), genmake2 will try to make a |
| 514 |
|
reasonable guess from the list provided in |
| 515 |
|
<filename>$ROOTDIR/tools/build_options</>. The method used for |
| 516 |
|
making this guess is to first determine the combination of |
| 517 |
|
operating system and hardware (eg. "linux_ia32") and then find a |
| 518 |
|
working Fortran compiler within the user's path. When these |
| 519 |
|
three items have been identified, genmake2 will try to find an |
| 520 |

optfile that has a matching name. </para> |

<para>Everyone is encouraged to submit their options files to the |

<para>Once a <filename>Makefile</> has been created using |

| 644 |
|
|
| 645 |
|
<para>The "make Clean" step will remove any stale source files, include |
| 646 |
|
files, and links. It is strongly recommended for "un-clean" |
| 647 |
|
directories which may contain the (perhaps partial) results of |
| 648 |
|
previous builds. Such "debris" can interfere with the next stage of |
| 649 |
|
the build. |
| 650 |
|
A more agressive cleaning option, "make CLEAN", can be used to also |
| 651 |
|
remove the executable and output files from a previous run.</para> |
| 652 |
|
|
| 653 |
|
<para>The "make depend" step will create a large number of symbolic |
| 654 |
|
links from the local directory to the source file locations. It also |
| 655 |
|
parses these files and creates an extensive list of dependencies |
| 656 |
|
within the <filename>Makefile</> itself. The links that exist at this |
| 657 |
|
stage are mostly "large F" files (*.F and *.F90) that need to be |
| 658 |
|
processed by a C preprocessor ("CPP"). Since "make depend" edits the |
| 659 |
|
<filename>Makefile</>, it is important not to skip this step!</para> |
| 660 |
|
|
| 661 |
|
<para>The final "make" invokes the C preprocessor to produce the "little |
| 662 |
|
f" files (*.f and *.f90) and then compiles them to object code using |
| 663 |
|
the specified FORTRAN compiler and options. An intermediate script is |
| 664 |
|
often used during this stage to further process (usually, make simple |
| 665 |
|
substitutions) custom definitions such as variable types within the |
| 666 |
|
source files. This additional stage is necessary in order to overcome |
| 667 |
|
some of the inconsistencies in the sizes of objects (bytes) between |

different compilers. The result of the build process is an executable |

MITgcmUV Packages |
| 1130 |
|
================= |
| 1131 |
|
|
| 1132 |
|
Optional parts of code are separated from |
| 1133 |
|
the MITgcmUV core driver code and organised into |
| 1134 |
|
packages. The packaging structure provides a mechanism for |
| 1135 |
|
maintaining suites of code, specific to particular |
| 1136 |
|
classes of problem, in a way that is cleanly |
| 1137 |
|
separated from the generic fluid dynamical engine. |
| 1138 |
|
|
| 1139 |
|
The MITgcmUV packaging structure is describe |
| 1140 |
|
below using generic package names ${pkg}. |
| 1141 |
|
A concrete examples of a package is the code |
| 1142 |
|
for implementing GM/Redi mixing. This code uses |
| 1143 |
|
the package name |
| 1144 |
|
* ${PKG} = GMREDI |
| 1145 |
|
* ${pkg} = gmredi |
| 1146 |
|
* ${Pkg} = gmRedi |
| 1147 |
|
|
| 1148 |
|
Package states |
| 1149 |
|
============== |
| 1150 |
|
|
| 1151 |
|
Packages can be any one of four states, included, |
| 1152 |
|
excluded, enabled, disabled as follows: |
| 1153 |
|
|
| 1154 |
|
included(excluded) compile time state which |
| 1155 |
|
includes(excludes) package |
| 1156 |
|
code and routine calls from |
| 1157 |
|
compilation/linking etc... |
| 1158 |
|
|
| 1159 |
|
enabled(disabled) run-time state which |
| 1160 |
|
enables(disables) package code |
| 1161 |
|
execution. |
| 1162 |
|
|
| 1163 |
|
Every call to a ${pkg}_... routine from outside the package |
| 1164 |
|
should be placed within both a |
| 1165 |
|
#ifdef ALLOW_${PKG} ... block and a |
| 1166 |
|
if ( use${Pkg} ) ... then block. |
| 1167 |
|
Package states are generally not expected to change during |
| 1168 |
|
a model run. |
| 1169 |
|
|
| 1170 |
|
Package structure |
| 1171 |
|
================= |
| 1172 |
|
|
| 1173 |
|
o Each package gets its runtime configuration |
| 1174 |
|
parameters from a file named "data.${pkg}" |
| 1175 |
|
Package runtime config. options are imported |
| 1176 |
|
into a common block held in a header file |
| 1177 |
|
called "${PKG}.h". |
| 1178 |
|
Note: In some packages, the header file "${PKG}.h" is splitted |
| 1179 |
|
into "${PKG}_PARAMS.h" that contains the package parameters and |
| 1180 |
|
${PKG}_VARS.h" for the field arrays. |
| 1181 |
|
|
| 1182 |
|
o The core driver part of the model can check |
| 1183 |
|
for runtime enabling or disabling of individual packages |
| 1184 |
|
through logical flags use${Pkg}. |
| 1185 |
|
The information is loaded from a |
| 1186 |
|
global package setup file called "data.pkg". |
| 1187 |
|
The use${Pkg} flags are not used within |
| 1188 |
|
individual packages. |
| 1189 |
|
|
| 1190 |
|
o Included in "${PKG}.h" is a logical flag |
| 1191 |
|
called ${Pkg}IsOn. The "${PKG}.h" header file can be imported |
| 1192 |
|
by other packages to check dependencies and requirements |
| 1193 |
|
from other packages ( see "Package Boot Sequence" section). |
| 1194 |
|
NOTE: This procedure is not presently implemented, |
| 1195 |
|
----- neither for kpp nor for gmRedi. |
| 1196 |
|
|
| 1197 |
|
CPP Flags |
| 1198 |
|
========= |
| 1199 |
|
|
| 1200 |
|
1. Within the core driver code flags of the form |
| 1201 |
|
ALLOW_${PKG} are used to include or exclude |
| 1202 |
|
whole packages. The ALLOW_${PKG} flags are included |
| 1203 |
|
from a PACKAGES_CONFIG.h file that is automatically |
| 1204 |
|
generated by genmake2 (see genmake2 section). |
| 1205 |
|
held in-line in the CPP_OPTIONS.h header file. |
| 1206 |
|
e.g. |
| 1207 |
|
|
| 1208 |
|
Core model code ..... |
| 1209 |
|
|
| 1210 |
|
#include "PACKAGES_CONFIG.h" |
| 1211 |
|
#include "CPP_OPTIONS.h" |
| 1212 |
|
: |
| 1213 |
|
: |
| 1214 |
|
: |
| 1215 |
|
|
| 1216 |
|
#ifdef ALLOW_${PKG} |
| 1217 |
|
if ( use${Pkg} ) CALL ${PKG}_DO_SOMETHING(...) |
| 1218 |
|
#endif |
| 1219 |
|
|
| 1220 |
|
2. Within an individual package a header file, |
| 1221 |
|
"${PKG}_OPTIONS.h", is used to set CPP flags |
| 1222 |
|
specific to that package. It also includes |
| 1223 |
|
"PACKAGES_CONFIG.h" and "CPP_OPTIONS.h". |
| 1224 |
|
|
| 1225 |
|
|
| 1226 |
|
Package Boot Sequence |
| 1227 |
|
===================== |
| 1228 |
|
|
| 1229 |
|
Calls to package routines within the core code timestepping |
| 1230 |
|
loop can vary. However, all packages follow a required |
| 1231 |
|
"boot" sequence outlined here: |
| 1232 |
|
|
| 1233 |
|
1. S/R PACKAGES_BOOT() |
| 1234 |
|
: |
| 1235 |

Description |
| 1286 |
|
=========== |
| 1287 |
|
|
| 1288 |
|
- ${PKG}_READPARMS() |
| 1289 |
|
is responsible for reading |
| 1290 |
|
in the package parameters file data.${pkg}, and storing |
| 1291 |
|
the package parameters in "${PKG}.h" (or in "${PKG}_PARAMS.h"). |
| 1292 |
|
-> called from INITIALISE_FIXED in PACKAGES_READPARMS |
| 1293 |
|
|
| 1294 |
|
- ${PKG}_INIT_FIXED() |
| 1295 |
|
is responsible for completing the internal setup of a package. |
| 1296 |
|
-> called from INITIALISE_FIXED in PACKAGES_INIT_FIXED |
| 1297 |
|
note: 1) some pkg use instead: |
| 1298 |
|
CALL ${PKG}_INITIALISE ( or the old form CALL ${PKG}_INIT ) |
| 1299 |
|
2) for simple pkg setup, this part is done inside ${PKG}_READPARMS |
| 1300 |
|
|
| 1301 |
|
- ${PKG}_CHECK() |
| 1302 |
|
is responsible for validating |
| 1303 |
|
basic package setup and inter-package dependencies. |
| 1304 |
|
${PKG}_CHECK can import other package parameters it may |
| 1305 |
|
need to check. This is done through header files "${PKG}.h". |
| 1306 |
|
It is assumed that parameters owned by other packages |
| 1307 |
|
will not be reset during ${PKG}_CHECK(). |
| 1308 |
|
-> called from INITIALISE_FIXED in PACKAGES_CHECK |
| 1309 |
|
|
| 1310 |
|
- ${PKG}_INIT_VARIA() |
| 1311 |
|
is responsible for fill-in all package variables with an initial value. |
| 1312 |
|
Contains eventually a call to ${PKG}_READ_PICKUP that will read |
| 1313 |
|
from a pickup file the package variables required to restart the model. |
| 1314 |
|
This routine is called after the core model state has been completely |
| 1315 |
|
initialised but before the core model timestepping starts. |
| 1316 |
|
-> called from INITIALISE_VARIA in PACKAGES_INIT_VARIABLES |
| 1317 |
|
note: the name ${PKG}_INIT_VARIA is not yet standard and some pkg |
| 1318 |
|
use for e.g. ${PKG}_INI_VARS, ${PKG}_INIT_VARIABLES, or the old |
| 1319 |
|
form ${PKG}_INIT |
| 1320 |
|
|
| 1321 |
|
- ${PKG}_OUTPUT( ) |
| 1322 |
|
is responsible for writing time-average fields to output files |
| 1323 |
|
(but the cumulating step is done within the package main S/R). |
| 1324 |
|
Can also contain other diagnostics (.e.g. CALL ${PKG}_MONITOR) |
| 1325 |
|
and write snap-shot fields that are hold in common blocks. Other |
| 1326 |
|
temporary fields are directly dump to file where they are available. |
| 1327 |
|
NOTE: 1) the S/R old name ${PKG}_DIAGS is used in some packages |
| 1328 |
|
but is beeing replaced by ${PKG}_OUTPUT |
| 1329 |
|
to avoid confusion with pkg/diagnostics functionality. |
| 1330 |
|
2) the output part is not yet in a standard form and might still |
| 1331 |
|
evolve a lot. |
| 1332 |
|
-> called within DO_THE_MODEL_IO |
| 1333 |
|
|
| 1334 |
|
- ${PKG}_WRITE_PICKUP() |
| 1335 |
|
is responsible for writing a package pickup file when necessary for |
| 1336 |
|
a restart. (found also the old name: ${PKG}_WRITE_CHECKPOINT ) |
| 1337 |
|
-> called from FORWARD_STEP and THE_MODEL_MAIN in PACKAGES_WRITE_PICKUP |
| 1338 |
|
|
| 1339 |
|
