 == Instrumenting statically-linked applications

-simplest way to do this is to generate an MPI compiler script (e.g. `mpicc`)

+Statically linked executables must be instrumented at compile time.

+=== Using a profile configuration 
+
+The MPICH MPI implementation supports the specification of a profiling library
+configuration, then it can be used to insert Darshan instrumentation without
+modifying the existing MPI compiler script.  Example profiling configuration
+files are installed with Darshan 2.3.1 and later.  You can enable a profiling
+configuration using environment variables or command line arguments to the
+compiler scripts:
+
+Example for MPICH 3.1.1 or newer:
+----
+export MPICC_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-cc
+export MPICXX_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-cxx
+export MPIFORT_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-f
+----
+
+Example for MPICH 3.1 or earlier:
+----
+export MPICC_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-cc
+export MPICXX_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-cxx
+export MPICF77_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-f
+export MPICF90_PROFILE=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-f

+
+Examples for command line use:
+----
+mpicc -profile=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-c <args>
+mpicxx -profile=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-cxx <args>
+mpif77 -profile=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-f <args>
+mpif90 -profile=$DARSHAN_PREFIX/share/mpi-profile/darshan-f <args>

 Please see the Cray recipe in this document for instructions on
 instrumenting statically-linked applications on that platform.
