CPU-Centric HPC Benchmarking with miniFE and GROMACS
Benchmarks are vital for evaluating High-Performance Computing (HPC) system performance, guiding hardware choices, and optimizing software. This whitepaper focuses on understanding and overcoming bottlenecks in HPC benchmarks for CPU environments, specifically considering ARM/AARCH64 architectures, using miniFE and GROMACS as examples. 1. Introduction to miniFE and GROMACS Benchmarks 1.1. miniFE: A Finite Element Mini-Application miniFE, part of the Mantevo suite, simulates i

Use External Toolchain in Build root (from Part 1) to generate Rootfs/Linux - Part 2
For some months, we at WhileOne Techsoft Pvt. Ltd. have been helping our customer setup a system to validate the performance of their SoC platform. In this context, we had to bring up an aarch64 Linux based target image to run on their proprietary hardware SoC platform. Part -1 of this series explains how to build an External Toolchain with BuildRoot. Part -2 of this series explains how to build a Target Linux image and Rootfs in BuildRoot using the External Toolchain th
