Building NGSolve with HYPRE support

Hey Lukas,

I dont *think* this Ubuntu machine has AVX512, and I *think* this machine is running gcc 7.4.0.

So you *are* able to run the attached file? That's super strange, haha.

I'm assuming you meant to type `precond_test.py` here; in any case, i managed to set a `catchpoint` to the `bad_cast`. The stack trace is
Code:

so it looks like the `BaseMatrix &matrix` is not actually a `ParallelMatrix`?

Ah, my bad, I thought your last error was still from navierstokes.py!

In this case, the problem seems to be that the hypre preconditioner ONLY works with MPI (or, more precicely, the interface NGSolve-hypre is written such that it does not work in the non-MPI case). It does not even throw an exception and exit gracefully but just crashes on the invalid cast ...

Also, refining distributed meshes only works uniformly, and only before spaces are defined on the mesh.

As an additional remark, hypre only really works well for order 1 discretizations. That is typical for AMG solvers. An option would be to combine this with an additive block-jacobi for the high order part.

Best, Lukas

Heya,

OK, the fact that distributed meshes can only by refined uniformly does hamper my intended application. However maybe with only 1 process, the mesh is not really distributed? In any case, I'd like to try getting HYPRE to work, even if I can't do adaptive refinement.

I found how to run NGSolve with MPI (`mpiexec -np N ngspy precond_test.py`) but whatever `N` I choose, I get some error that looks like this. Am I not running MPI correctly? Do you have any idea?

Best,
Jan

The hypre interface only works with -np 2 or more. It is just programmed that way.

When you run with -np 2 or more, you need to generate the mesh on the master and then distribute it (see the file attached to my last comment).

Lukas

As a workaround, you could try to use hypre through the PETSc interface, that should also work with only one rank. The overhead should not be substantially worse.

Hey Lukas, ah I didn't catch your earlier attached file. Thank you very much; I now have something that works more-or-less. I will play around with the PETSc interface.

For you all my questions have been answered!!
