MAPL 2.42.0

[mathomp4]

This is a minor release of MAPL. There are many new fixes and additions to this release including:

Changes

• Various workarounds for building MAPL with MPICH
• Added a new benchmark to simulate writing a cubed-sphere file using various tunable strategies
• Update to components.yaml
  • ESMA_cmake v3.36.0 (Support for SLES15 at NCCS, support for Intel 2021.10)
  • ESMA_env v4.20.5 (Support for SLES15 at NCCS)

Fixes

• Introduced workaround for Intel 2021.10 bug in generic layer.
• Updated write_by_oserver logic so that the decision to write by the oserver is based on whether the output server client is passed in
• Fixed incorrect History print during runtime

All testing show it is zero-diff to MAPL 2.41.

---

The libraries this version of MAPL is currently tested with are below.

• Baselibs 7.14.0
  • netcdf-c 4.9.2 (Needed for quantize support, but not required for all of MAPL)
  • netcdf-fortran 4.6.1 (Needed for quantize support, but not required for all of MAPL)
  • ESMF 8.5.0 (required)
  • GFE 1.11.0
    • gFTL 1.10.0
    • gFTL-shared 1.6.1
    • pFUnit 4.7.3 (optional)
    • fArgParse 1.5.0 (if -DBUILD_WITH_FARGPARSE=YES, default=YES)
    • pFlogger 1.9.5 (if -DBUILD_WITH_PFLOGGER=YES, default=YES)
    • FLAP geos/v1.10.0 (if -DBUILD_WITH_FLAP=YES, default=NO)

Also, if you build with -DUSE_F2PY=ON, you should use:

• ESMA_cmake v3.34.0

We recommend most external users set -DUSE_F2PY=OFF

From CHANGELOG.md

Added

• Various workarounds for building MAPL with MPICH
  • Non-support for C_PTR in MPI_Alloc_Mem ((MPICH Issue #6691)[https://github.com/fortran: MPI_Alloc_mem mismatch in argument pmodels/mpich#6691])
  • Non-support for ierror keyword arguments with use mpi ((MPICH Issue #6693)[https://github.com/fortran: ierror keyword argument not handled correctly in Fortran 90 mpi module bindings pmodels/mpich#6693])
• Add new benchmark to simulation writing a cubed-sphere file using various tunable strategies

Changed

• Modified fpp macro _UNUSED_DUMMY(x) to use ASSOCIATE instead of PRINT. With this change it can be used in PURE procedures.
• Make error handling in Plain_netCDF_Time consistent with MAPL standard error handling
• Extend unit tests for FileSystemUtilities.
• Updated handling of NetCDF time values
• Update components.yaml
  • ESMA_cmake v3.36.0 (Support for SLES15 at NCCS, support for Intel 2021.10)
  • ESMA_env v4.20.5 (Support for SLES15 at NCCS)

Fixed

• Introduced workaround for Intel 2021.10 bug in generic layer.
• Updated write_by_oserver logic so that the decision to write by the oserver is based on whether the output server client is passed in
• Updated CI GEOSadas build to use special branch (as stock ADAS at the moment is too far behind GEOSgcm main)
• Fix incorrect History print during runtime
