How to Run Automated Tests while PBS Is Running under Memory Diagnostics Tools
How to Run Automated Tests while PBS Is Running under Memory Diagnostics Tools
This page shows how to run automated tests while PBS is running under memory diagnostics tools like valgrind, electric fence or purify
However, this page mostly focuses on Valgrind only but this step can be used to run any diagnostics tools such as code coverage tools, etc...
Step-by-step guide
Compile Python with Valgrind support
- Install valgrind devel package
- Command: yum install valgrind-devel
- Compile python from source as follow
./configure --prefix=<python_install_dir> --without-pymalloc --with-pydebug --with-valgrind
make
make install
Compile and install PBS with above python and in partial debug mode
- ./configure --prefix=<installdir> --with-python=<python_install_dir> CFLAGS="-g -O0 -DPy_DEBUG -Wall -Werror"
- NOTE: Do not add '-DDEBUG' option in CFLAGS because it will start all PBS daemons in foreground mode which will hang PBS init script forever
- make; make install
Change in pbs_init.d script
NOTE: This step applies only if you are using PBS code before https://github.com/PBSPro/pbspro/commit/d46352b21eb76c38a21849b987b0b9dd719a839a commit
Replace below lines in check_started() as shown
# strip out everything except executable name prog_name=`echo ${ps_out} | awk '{print $1}' | \ awk -F/ '{print $NF}' | awk '{print $1}'` if [ "${prog_name}" = $2 ] ; then
with
# strip out everything except executable name prog_name=`echo ${ps_out} | grep -how "$2"` if [ "x${prog_name}" = "x$2" ] ; then
Generate diagnostics tool wrapper script for binaries

NOTES:
- The above script only generates wrapper script for all PBS daemons only, but you can modify above script for any binaries which you want to run under diagnostics tool with any options
- The option --vgdb is not supported in Valgrind versions below 3.7.0. Systems with RHEL 6 have valgrind version below 3.7.0.
Now run your automated test.
