[Description:]

This command invokes package-specific settings for the various
accelerator packages available in LAMMPS.  Currently the following
packages use settings from this command: GPU, USER-INTEL, KOKKOS, and
USER-OMP.

If this command is specified in an input script, it must be near the
top of the script, before the simulation box has been defined.  This
is because it specifies settings that the accelerator packages use in
their initialization, before a simulation is defined.

This command can also be specified from the command-line when
launching LAMMPS, using the "-pk" "command-line
switch"_Section_start.html#start_7.  The syntax is exactly the same as
when used in an input script.

Note that all of the accelerator packages require the package command
to be specified (except the OPT package), if the package is to be used
in a simulation (LAMMPS can be built with an accelerator package
without using it in a particular simulation).  However, in all cases,
a default version of the command is typically invoked by other
accelerator settings.

The KOKKOS package requires a "-k on" "command-line
switch"_Section_start.html#start_7 respectively, which invokes a
"package kokkos" command with default settings.

For the GPU, USER-INTEL, and USER-OMP packages, if a "-sf gpu" or "-sf
intel" or "-sf omp" "command-line switch"_Section_start.html#start_7
is used to auto-append accelerator suffixes to various styles in the
input script, then those switches also invoke a "package gpu",
"package intel", or "package omp" command with default settings.

NOTE: A package command for a particular style can be invoked multiple
times when a simulation is setup, e.g. by the "-c on", "-k on", "-sf",
and "-pk" "command-line switches"_Section_start.html#start_7, and by
using this command in an input script.  Each time it is used all of
the style options are set, either to default values or to specified
settings.  I.e. settings from previous invocations do not persist
across multiple invocations.

See the "Section 5.3"_Section_accelerate.html#acc_3 section of the
manual for more details about using the various accelerator packages
for speeding up LAMMPS simulations.

:line

The {gpu} style invokes settings associated with the use of the GPU
package.

The {Ngpu} argument sets the number of GPUs per node.  There must be
at least as many MPI tasks per node as GPUs, as set by the mpirun or
mpiexec command.  If there are more MPI tasks (per node)
than GPUs, multiple MPI tasks will share each GPU.

Optional keyword/value pairs can also be specified.  Each has a
default value as listed below.

The {neigh} keyword specifies where neighbor lists for pair style
computation will be built.  If {neigh} is {yes}, which is the default,
neighbor list building is performed on the GPU.  If {neigh} is {no},
neighbor list building is performed on the CPU.  GPU neighbor list
building currently cannot be used with a triclinic box.  GPU neighbor
list calculation currently cannot be used with
"hybrid"_pair_hybrid.html pair styles.  GPU neighbor lists are not
compatible with commands that are not GPU-enabled.  When a non-GPU
enabled command requires a neighbor list, it will also be built on the
CPU.  In these cases, it will typically be more efficient to only use
CPU neighbor list builds.

The {newton} keyword sets the Newton flags for pairwise (not bonded)
interactions to {off} or {on}, the same as the "newton"_newton.html
command allows.  Currently, only an {off} value is allowed, since all
the GPU package pair styles require this setting.  This means more
computation is done, but less communication.  In the future a value of
{on} may be allowed, so the {newton} keyword is included as an option
for compatibility with the package command for other accelerator
styles.  Note that the newton setting for bonded interactions is not
affected by this keyword.

The {binsize} keyword sets the size of bins used to bin atoms in
neighbor list builds performed on the GPU, if {neigh} = {yes} is set.
If {binsize} is set to 0.0 (the default), then bins = the size of the
pairwise cutoff + neighbor skin distance.  This is 2x larger than the
LAMMPS default used for neighbor list building on the CPU.  This will
be close to optimal for the GPU, so you do not normally need to use
this keyword.  Note that if you use a longer-than-usual pairwise
cutoff, e.g. to allow for a smaller fraction of KSpace work with a
"long-range Coulombic solver"_kspace_style.html because the GPU is
faster at performing pairwise interactions, then it may be optimal to
make the {binsize} smaller than the default.  For example, with a
cutoff of 20*sigma in LJ "units"_units.html and a neighbor skin
distance of sigma, a {binsize} = 5.25*sigma can be more efficient than
the default.

The {split} keyword can be used for load balancing force calculations
between CPU and GPU cores in GPU-enabled pair styles. If 0 < {split} <
1.0, a fixed fraction of particles is offloaded to the GPU while force
calculation for the other particles occurs simultaneously on the CPU.
If {split} < 0.0, the optimal fraction (based on CPU and GPU timings)
is calculated every 25 timesteps, i.e. dynamic load-balancing across
the CPU and GPU is performed.  If {split} = 1.0, all force
calculations for GPU accelerated pair styles are performed on the GPU.
In this case, other "hybrid"_pair_hybrid.html pair interactions,
"bond"_bond_style.html, "angle"_angle_style.html,
"dihedral"_dihedral_style.html, "improper"_improper_style.html, and
"long-range"_kspace_style.html calculations can be performed on the
CPU while the GPU is performing force calculations for the GPU-enabled
pair style.  If all CPU force computations complete before the GPU
completes, LAMMPS will block until the GPU has finished before
continuing the timestep.

As an example, if you have two GPUs per node and 8 CPU cores per node,
and would like to run on 4 nodes (32 cores) with dynamic balancing of
force calculation across CPU and GPU cores, you could specify

mpirun -np 32 -sf gpu -in in.script    # launch command
package gpu 2 split -1                 # input script command :pre

In this case, all CPU cores and GPU devices on the nodes would be
utilized.  Each GPU device would be shared by 4 CPU cores. The CPU
cores would perform force calculations for some fraction of the
particles at the same time the GPUs performed force calculation for
the other particles.

The {gpuID} keyword allows selection of which GPUs on each node will
be used for a simulation.  The {first} and {last} values specify the
GPU IDs to use (from 0 to Ngpu-1).  By default, first = 0 and last =
Ngpu-1, so that all GPUs are used, assuming Ngpu is set to the number
of physical GPUs.  If you only wish to use a subset, set Ngpu to a
smaller number and first/last to a sub-range of the available GPUs.

The {tpa} keyword sets the number of GPU thread per atom used to
perform force calculations.  With a default value of 1, the number of
threads will be chosen based on the pair style, however, the value can
be set explicitly with this keyword to fine-tune performance.  For
large cutoffs or with a small number of particles per GPU, increasing
the value can improve performance. The number of threads per atom must
be a power of 2 and currently cannot be greater than 32.

The {device} keyword can be used to tune parameters optimized for a
specific accelerator, when using OpenCL.  For CUDA, the {device}
keyword is ignored.  Currently, the device type is limited to NVIDIA
Kepler, NVIDIA Fermi, AMD Cypress, or a generic device.  More devices
may be added later.  The default device type can be specified when
building LAMMPS with the GPU library, via settings in the
lib/gpu/Makefile that is used.

The {blocksize} keyword allows you to tweak the number of threads used
per thread block. This number should be a multiple of 32 (for GPUs)
and its maximum depends on the specific GPU hardware. Typical choices
are 64, 128, or 256. A larger blocksize increases occupancy of
individual GPU cores, but reduces the total number of thread blocks,
thus may lead to load imbalance.

:line

The {intel} style invokes settings associated with the use of the
USER-INTEL package.  All of its settings, except the {omp} and {mode}
keywords, are ignored if LAMMPS was not built with Xeon Phi
coprocessor support.  All of its settings, including the {omp} and
{mode} keyword are applicable if LAMMPS was built with coprocessor
support.

The {Nphi} argument sets the number of coprocessors per node.
This can be set to any value, including 0, if LAMMPS was not
built with coprocessor support.

Optional keyword/value pairs can also be specified.  Each has a
default value as listed below.

The {omp} keyword determines the number of OpenMP threads allocated
for each MPI task when any portion of the interactions computed by a
USER-INTEL pair style are run on the CPU.  This can be the case even
if LAMMPS was built with coprocessor support; see the {balance}
keyword discussion below.  If you are running with less MPI tasks/node
than there are CPUs, it can be advantageous to use OpenMP threading on
the CPUs.

NOTE: The {omp} keyword has nothing to do with coprocessor threads on
the Xeon Phi; see the {tpc} and {tptask} keywords below for a
discussion of coprocessor threads.

The {Nthread} value for the {omp} keyword sets the number of OpenMP
threads allocated for each MPI task.  Setting {Nthread} = 0 (the
default) instructs LAMMPS to use whatever value is the default for the
given OpenMP environment. This is usually determined via the
{OMP_NUM_THREADS} environment variable or the compiler runtime, which
is usually a value of 1.

For more details, including examples of how to set the OMP_NUM_THREADS
environment variable, see the discussion of the {Nthreads} setting on
this doc page for the "package omp" command.  Nthreads is a required
argument for the USER-OMP package.  Its meaning is exactly the same
for the USER-INTEL package.

NOTE: If you build LAMMPS with both the USER-INTEL and USER-OMP
packages, be aware that both packages allow setting of the {Nthreads}
value via their package commands, but there is only a single global
{Nthreads} value used by OpenMP.  Thus if both package commands are
invoked, you should insure the two values are consistent.  If they are
not, the last one invoked will take precedence, for both packages.
Also note that if the "-sf hybrid intel omp" "command-line
switch"_"_Section_start.html#start_7 is used, it invokes a "package
intel" command, followed by a "package omp" command, both with a
setting of {Nthreads} = 0.

The {mode} keyword determines the precision mode to use for
computing pair style forces, either on the CPU or on the coprocessor,
when using a USER-INTEL supported "pair style"_pair_style.html.  It
can take a value of {single}, {mixed} which is the default, or
{double}.  {Single} means single precision is used for the entire
force calculation.  {Mixed} means forces between a pair of atoms are
computed in single precision, but accumulated and stored in double
precision, including storage of forces, torques, energies, and virial
quantities.  {Double} means double precision is used for the entire
force calculation.

The {lrt} keyword can be used to enable "Long Range Thread (LRT)"
mode. It can take a value of {yes} to enable and {no} to disable.
LRT mode generates an extra thread (in addition to any OpenMP threads
specified with the OMP_NUM_THREADS environment variable or the {omp}
keyword). The extra thread is dedicated for performing part of the
"PPPM solver"_kspace_style.html computations and communications. This
can improve parallel performance on processors supporting
Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) such as Hyperthreading on Intel
processors. In this mode, one additional thread is generated per MPI
process. LAMMPS will generate a warning in the case that more threads
are used than available in SMT hardware on a node. If the PPPM solver
from the USER-INTEL package is not used, then the LRT setting is
ignored and no extra threads are generated. Enabling LRT will replace
the "run_style"_run_style.html with the {verlet/lrt/intel} style that
is identical to the default {verlet} style aside from supporting the
LRT feature.

The {balance} keyword sets the fraction of "pair
style"_pair_style.html work offloaded to the coprocessor for split
values between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusive.  While this fraction of work is
running on the coprocessor, other calculations will run on the host,
including neighbor and pair calculations that are not offloaded, as
well as angle, bond, dihedral, kspace, and some MPI communications.
If {split} is set to -1, the fraction of work is dynamically adjusted
automatically throughout the run.  This typically give performance
within 5 to 10 percent of the optimal fixed fraction.

The {ghost} keyword determines whether or not ghost atoms, i.e. atoms
at the boundaries of processor sub-domains, are offloaded for neighbor
and force calculations.  When the value = "no", ghost atoms are not
offloaded.  This option can reduce the amount of data transfer with
the coprocessor and can also overlap MPI communication of forces with
computation on the coprocessor when the "newton pair"_newton.html
setting is "on".  When the value = "yes", ghost atoms are offloaded.
In some cases this can provide better performance, especially if the
{balance} fraction is high.

The {tpc} keyword sets the max # of coprocessor threads {Ntpc} that
will run on each core of the coprocessor.  The default value = 4,
which is the number of hardware threads per core supported by the
current generation Xeon Phi chips.

The {tptask} keyword sets the max # of coprocessor threads (Ntptask}
assigned to each MPI task.  The default value = 240, which is the
total # of threads an entire current generation Xeon Phi chip can run
(240 = 60 cores * 4 threads/core).  This means each MPI task assigned
to the Phi will enough threads for the chip to run the max allowed,
even if only 1 MPI task is assigned.  If 8 MPI tasks are assigned to
the Phi, each will run with 30 threads.  If you wish to limit the
number of threads per MPI task, set {tptask} to a smaller value.
E.g. for {tptask} = 16, if 8 MPI tasks are assigned, each will run
with 16 threads, for a total of 128.

Note that the default settings for {tpc} and {tptask} are fine for
most problems, regardless of how many MPI tasks you assign to a Phi.

The {no_affinity} keyword will turn off automatic setting of core
affinity for MPI tasks and OpenMP threads on the host when using
offload to a coprocessor. Affinity settings are used when possible
to prevent MPI tasks and OpenMP threads from being on separate NUMA
domains and to prevent offload threads from interfering with other
processes/threads used for LAMMPS.

:line

The {kokkos} style invokes settings associated with the use of the
KOKKOS package.

All of the settings are optional keyword/value pairs.  Each has a
default value as listed below.

The {neigh} keyword determines how neighbor lists are built.  A value
of {half} uses a thread-safe variant of half-neighbor lists,
the same as used by most pair styles in LAMMPS.

A value of {full} uses a full neighbor lists and is the default.  This
performs twice as much computation as the {half} option, however that
is often a win because it is thread-safe and doesn't require atomic
operations in the calculation of pair forces.  For that reason, {full}
is the default setting.  However, when running in MPI-only mode with 1
thread per MPI task, {half} neighbor lists will typically be faster,
just as it is for non-accelerated pair styles. Similarly, the {neigh/qeq}
keyword determines how neighbor lists are built for "fix qeq/reax/kk"_fix_qeq_reax.html.
If not explicitly set, the value of {neigh/qeq} will match {neigh}.

The {newton} keyword sets the Newton flags for pairwise and bonded
interactions to {off} or {on}, the same as the "newton"_newton.html
command allows.  The default is {off} because this will almost always
give better performance for the KOKKOS package.  This means more
computation is done, but less communication.  However, when running in
MPI-only mode with 1 thread per MPI task, a value of {on} will
typically be faster, just as it is for non-accelerated pair styles.

The {binsize} keyword sets the size of bins used to bin atoms in
neighbor list builds.  The same value can be set by the "neigh_modify
binsize"_neigh_modify.html command.  Making it an option in the
package kokkos command allows it to be set from the command line.  The
default value is 0.0, which means the LAMMPS default will be used,
which is bins = 1/2 the size of the pairwise cutoff + neighbor skin
distance.  This is fine when neighbor lists are built on the CPU.  For
GPU builds, a 2x larger binsize equal to the pairwise cutoff +
neighbor skin, is often faster, which can be set by this keyword.
Note that if you use a longer-than-usual pairwise cutoff, e.g. to
allow for a smaller fraction of KSpace work with a "long-range
Coulombic solver"_kspace_style.html because the GPU is faster at
performing pairwise interactions, then this rule of thumb may give too
large a binsize.

The {comm} and {comm/exchange} and {comm/forward} keywords determine
whether the host or device performs the packing and unpacking of data
when communicating per-atom data between processors.  "Exchange"
communication happens only on timesteps that neighbor lists are
rebuilt.  The data is only for atoms that migrate to new processors.
"Forward" communication happens every timestep.  The data is for atom
coordinates and any other atom properties that needs to be updated for
ghost atoms owned by each processor.

The {comm} keyword is simply a short-cut to set the same value
for both the {comm/exchange} and {comm/forward} keywords.

The value options for all 3 keywords are {no} or {host} or {device}.
A value of {no} means to use the standard non-KOKKOS method of
packing/unpacking data for the communication.  A value of {host} means
to use the host, typically a multi-core CPU, and perform the
packing/unpacking in parallel with threads.  A value of {device} means
to use the device, typically a GPU, to perform the packing/unpacking
operation.

The optimal choice for these keywords depends on the input script and
the hardware used.  The {no} value is useful for verifying that the
Kokkos-based {host} and {device} values are working correctly.  It may
also be the fastest choice when using Kokkos styles in MPI-only mode
(i.e. with a thread count of 1).

When running on CPUs or Xeon Phi, the {host} and {device} values work
identically.  When using GPUs, the {device} value will typically be
optimal if all of your styles used in your input script are supported
by the KOKKOS package.  In this case data can stay on the GPU for many
timesteps without being moved between the host and GPU, if you use the
{device} value.  This requires that your MPI is able to access GPU
memory directly.  Currently that is true for OpenMPI 1.8 (or later
versions), Mvapich2 1.9 (or later), and CrayMPI.  If your script uses
styles (e.g. fixes) which are not yet supported by the KOKKOS package,
then data has to be move between the host and device anyway, so it is
typically faster to let the host handle communication, by using the
{host} value.  Using {host} instead of {no} will enable use of
multiple threads to pack/unpack communicated data.

:line

The {omp} style invokes settings associated with the use of the
USER-OMP package.

The {Nthread} argument sets the number of OpenMP threads allocated for
each MPI task.  For example, if your system has nodes with dual
quad-core processors, it has a total of 8 cores per node.  You could
use two MPI tasks per node (e.g. using the -ppn option of the mpirun
command in MPICH or -npernode in OpenMPI), and set {Nthreads} = 4.
This would use all 8 cores on each node.  Note that the product of MPI
tasks * threads/task should not exceed the physical number of cores
(on a node), otherwise performance will suffer.

Setting {Nthread} = 0 instructs LAMMPS to use whatever value is the
default for the given OpenMP environment. This is usually determined
via the {OMP_NUM_THREADS} environment variable or the compiler
runtime.  Note that in most cases the default for OpenMP capable
compilers is to use one thread for each available CPU core when
{OMP_NUM_THREADS} is not explicitly set, which can lead to poor
performance.

Here are examples of how to set the environment variable when
launching LAMMPS:

env OMP_NUM_THREADS=4 lmp_machine -sf omp -in in.script
env OMP_NUM_THREADS=2 mpirun -np 2 lmp_machine -sf omp -in in.script
mpirun -x OMP_NUM_THREADS=2 -np 2 lmp_machine -sf omp -in in.script :pre

or you can set it permanently in your shell's start-up script.
All three of these examples use a total of 4 CPU cores.

Note that different MPI implementations have different ways of passing
the OMP_NUM_THREADS environment variable to all MPI processes.  The
2nd example line above is for MPICH; the 3rd example line with -x is
for OpenMPI.  Check your MPI documentation for additional details.

What combination of threads and MPI tasks gives the best performance
is difficult to predict and can depend on many components of your
input.  Not all features of LAMMPS support OpenMP threading via the
USER-OMP package and the parallel efficiency can be very different,
too.

Optional keyword/value pairs can also be specified.  Each has a
default value as listed below.

The {neigh} keyword specifies whether neighbor list building will be
multi-threaded in addition to force calculations.  If {neigh} is set
to {no} then neighbor list calculation is performed only by MPI tasks
with no OpenMP threading.  If {mode} is {yes} (the default), a
multi-threaded neighbor list build is used.  Using {neigh} = {yes} is
almost always faster and should produce identical neighbor lists at the
expense of using more memory.  Specifically, neighbor list pages are
allocated for all threads at the same time and each thread works
within its own pages.
