Spiner: Performance Portable Routines for Generic, Tabulated, Multi-Dimensional Data

We present Spiner, a new, performance-portable library for working with tabulated data. Spiner provides efficient routines for multi-dimensional interpolation and indexing on both CPUs and GPUs—as well as more exotic hardware—including interwoven interpolation and indexing access patterns, as needed for radiation transport. Importantly, Spiner defines a data format, based on HDF5, that couples the tabulated data to the information required to interpolate it, which Spiner can read and move to GPU.

Spiner vs EOSPAC6: capabilities, performance, and accuracy considerations

The Cross-Cutting Capabilities Project (XCAP) has significant interest in collecting and implementing a common set of libraries to be used across the various production hydro-codes at LANL. A common set of libraries will help facilitate comparisons between codes. In addition to minimizing variables for comparisons and physics validation, efforts toward optimization and porting of packages for future architectures will be more efficient. As part of this push Singularity is being considered as an inclusive materials interface library. One crucial part of this library is the importing, inverting, and interpolation of equation of state (EOS) data. Currently the Lagrangian Applications Project (LAP) and Safety Applications Project (SAP) are using EOSPAC6 for delivery EOS data. The Eulerian Applications Project (EAP) has historically used TEOS and more recently an implementation of Singularly via a package called Spiner for EOS interpolation. Singularity currently has the option of using several analytical EOS models, directly employing SESAME via Spiner, or directly using SESAME via EOSPAC6 (not optimized yet). Assuming Singularity moves forward as a common platform for the implementation of materials models, a decision will need to be made on which EOS interpolation package XCAP should move forward with, given resources and people are finite. We will attempt to address pros and cons of Spiner and EOSPAC6 and the trade-offs that should be considered during the decision making process. This report is intended as an ASC-PEM-EOS perspective on what is needed in an EOS interpolation package. Performance and Accuracy sections will mostly address data from comparison studies in LA-UR-22-22699.

Spiner

Spiner is a library for storing, indexing, and interpolating multidimensional data in a performance-portable way. It’s intended to run on CPUs, GPUs and everything in-between. You can create a table on a CPU, copy it to a GPU, and interpolate on it in a GPU kernel, for example. Spiner also defines (via hdf5) a file format that bundles data together with instructions for interpolating it. This means you don’t have to specify anything to start interpolating, simple load the file and evaluate where you want.

Spiner-EOSPAC Comparison: performance and accuracy on Power9 CPU and GPU

The goal of this report is to concisely compare EOSPAC to Spiner EOS for a selection of commonly-used materials over as much of their domain as is possible. Importantly, this comparison does not address the way that the Euler equations may amplify interpolation errors and we take as given that the rational function interpolator gives the best possible representation of the EOS represented by the Sesame data. Neither does the report address all, or even majority of, the capabilities of each code nor does it explore performance or accuracy over multiple compilers and platforms.
