• Application processes schedule collective operation • Check periodically if operation is complete • Overlap of computation and communication => Better Performance • Catch: Who will progress communication

Network Based Computing Laboratory MVAPICH User Group (MUG) Meeting’18 41 Non-blocking Collective (NBC) Operations

• Enables overlap of computation with communication • Non-blocking calls do not match blocking collective calls – MPI may use different algorithms for blocking and non-blocking collectives – Blocking collectives: Optimized for latency – Non-blocking collectives: Optimized for overlap • A process calling a NBC operation – Schedules collective operation and immediately returns – Executes application computation code – Waits for the end of the collective • The communication progress by – Application code through MPI_Test – Network adapter (HCA) with hardware support – Dedicated processes / thread in MPI library • There is a non-blocking equivalent for each blocking operation – Has an “I” in the name • MPI_Bcast -> MPI_Ibcast; MPI_Reduce -> MPI_Ireduce

Network Based Computing Laboratory MVAPICH User Group (MUG) Meeting’18 42 How do I write applications with NBC?

• Mellanox’s ConnectX-2, ConnectX-3, ConnectIB, ConnectX-4, and ConnectX-5 adapters feature “task-list” offload interface – Extension to existing InfiniBand APIs • Collective communication with `blocking’ feature is usually a scaling bottleneck – Matches with the need for non-blocking collective in MPI • Accordingly MPI software stacks need to be re-designed to leverage offload in a comprehensive manner • Can applications be modified to take advantage of non-blocking collectives and what will be the benefits?
