Thank you all, for your help.</div><div><br></div><div>Our program is unfortunately behaving a little bit nondeterministically. I am not sure why because for the OpenMP parts, I test it for race conditions using Intel Inspector and see none. We are using Metis, not Parmetis. Do Petsc or Metis have any behavior that is nondeterministic? We will continue to investigate the cause of the nondeterminism. But that is a challenge for us reproducing this problem because we can run the same simulation 10 times, and we do not get precisely the same result each time. In fact, for this bug, Chris did run it 10 times and did not reproduce.</div><div><br></div><div>Every month, 1000s of hours of this simulator are being run on the Azure cluster. This crash has been occurring for months, but at infrequent intervals, and have never been able to reproduce it. As such, we can't generate an error dump, unless we gave all users a Petsc build with no optimization and waited weeks until a problem cropped up. </div><div><br></div><div>Here's what we'll do - we'll internally make a build with debug and then run a large number of simulations until the problem reproduces and we get the error dump. That will take us some time, but we'll do it. </div><div><br></div><div>Here is a bit more background that might be helpful.
At first, we used OpenMPI 2.1.1-8 with Petsc 3.13.2. With that combo, we observed a memory leak, and simulations failed when the node ran out of RAM. Then we switched to MPICH3.3a2 and Petsc 3.13.3. The memory leak went away. That's when we started seeing this bug "greater than largest key allowed". It was unreproducible, but happening relatively more often than it is now (I think) - I was getting a couple user reports a week. Then, we updated to MPICH 3.3.2 and the same Petsc version (3.13.3). The problem seems to be less common - hadn't happened for the past month. But then it happened four times this week. </div><div><br></div><div>Other background to note - our linear system very frequently changes size/shape. There will be 10,000s of Petsc solves with different matrices (different positions of nonzero values) over the course of a simulation. As far as we can tell, the crash only occurs only after the simulator has run for a long time, 10+ hours. Having said that, it does not appear to be a memory leak - at least, the node has plenty of remaining RAM when these crashes are occurring.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>If it helps, I believe you can configure an optimized build to add -g,</div><div><br></div><div> COPTFLAGS="-g" CPPOPTFLAGS="-g"</div><div><br></div><div>so that symbols are kept in the optimized libraries.
