It's perhaps worth saying that if you must mix OpenMP libraries built against the LLVM (Kuck/Intel) runtime, and GNU GOMP on GNU/Linux: Ensure libomp is built with GOMP compatibility, however that's configured, make a s

I want free software, and I'm aghast at what some people run, but this is not the real world. How many examples do you want? If you talk security, what's the threat model? What I run on a decently managed (with the aid of dynam

Exactly, but even if you can rebuild it, you don't want to under most circumstances. In principle with static binaries you can use dyninst, for instance, but in practice you may not be able to for various reasons. Then as a system man

I've never seen anything for Python that allows you to a linear algebra-based code and run it at maybe petascale with trivial modifications. There's an R example somewhere under https://pbdr.org/publications.html

I hope that puts it to rest; I can hope. Unfortunately, my experience is that people who haven't fixed multiple security problems, and probably have never heard of taviso, know a lot more about security than people who have...

Debian and Fedora provide serial, OpenMP, and pthreads versions of lilbopenblas. Are you sure OpenBLAS doesn't detect nested OpenMP? I thought it did, though I'd normally use the serial version outside something like R, but if y

My father claimed once to have used clerical Latin as a common language talking to a priest somewhere in Europe. I don't think I'd have got far, despite it being one of my best subjects at school.

Yes, a fine explanation from Mitchell and Webb, worth keeping in mind.

Silly rants about the GPL aside, why can't you use (LGPL) libelf, following its version of addr2line? The binutils-static rpm doc even says to use elfutils instead in new code -- no BFD? A quick look suggests RHEL's perf does so

For what it's worth, even in that space, NQS was done before Condor (and based on an earlier system). I've seen Condor used quite heavily around for long time, but originally only PVM, which was roughly contemporaneous.
