but running pingpond on two compute nodes gives the same memory registration error. I don't understand what has changed on our system and why what used to work, doesn't any more. Is it ok to launch jobs by hand, or do they have to be part of an srun script
- here I am manually sshing into two compute nodes and executing
<p></p>
<p>pingpong from one and pingpong addr from the other. I'm suspecting some strange permission error because of the message</p>

I know your question is aimed at Howard, but I can offer another data point and an example of a software stack working around this. I've never gotten kdreg to work in executables that are also using Cray's MPI; they conflict. If you want to use udreg as an
alternative, then you'll need to do two things:</div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
a) disable kdreg support in libfabric at build time (as in this spack package here:
<a href="https://github.com/spack/spack/blob/develop/var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/libfabric/package.py#L94">
https://github.com/spack/spack/blob/develop/var/spack/repos/builtin/packages/libfabric/package.py#L94</a>)</div>

<div style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
b) explicitly enable and configure udreg outside of libfabric (as in the Mercury libfabric plugin here:
<a href="https://github.com/mercury-hpc/mercury/blob/master/src/na/na_ofi.c#L1778">
https://github.com/mercury-hpc/mercury/blob/master/src/na/na_ofi.c#L1778</a>) <br>

This configuration is stable for us and works fine whether Cray MPI is present or not. I'll defer to Howard about the technical implications, though

<p>From the phrasing "<span>You are hitting a limitation with the ancient kdreg device driver. It may be best to not use it for your libfabric app.</span>" is there anything I can do about it. I can see that there is a udreg directory in /opt/cray - is there
anything I can replace the kdreg stuff with?</p>

<div>I've got this log when I dump out my own messages, and also enable debugging in libfabric - can anyone tell what's wrong from the message. Code that used to work seems to have stopped. I upgraded to libfabric 1.10.1 tag and rebuilt, but it didn't change.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The only thing that springs to mind is that the application is also using MPI on the cray at the same time, so when this code is called, mpi_init would have already been called, and perhaps somehow the nic is inaccessible - hence the error. I'm sure it
used to work - and if I use ranks = 1 - it runs - so perhaps mpi detects just one rank and does no initialization, but when I use N>1 ranks, it dies. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks</div>
