Compiler Notes

The AMD64 AOCC Compiler Suite is available at
http://developer.amd.com/amd-aocc/

Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
'ulimit -l 2097152' was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit

runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>

Set dirty_ratio=8 to limit dirty cache to 8% of memory
Set swappiness=1 to swap only if necessary
Set zone_reclaim_mode=1 to free local node memory and avoid remote memory
sync then drop_caches=3 to reset caches before invoking runcpu

dirty_ratio, swappiness, zone_reclaim_mode and drop_caches were
all set using privileged echo (e.g. echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness).

Transparent huge pages set to 'always' for this run (OS default)

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH =
     "/root/cpu2017-1.1.0/amd_rate_aocc200_rome_C_lib/64;/root/cpu2017-1.1.0/
     amd_rate_aocc200_rome_C_lib/32:"
MALLOC_CONF = "retain:true"

General Notes

Binaries were compiled on a system with 2x AMD EPYC 7601 CPU + 512GB Memory using Fedora 26

NA: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5754 (Meltdown)
is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
Yes: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5753 (Spectre variant 1)
is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
Yes: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre variant 2)
is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.

jemalloc: configured and built with GCC v9.1.0 in Ubuntu 19.04 with -O3 -znver2 -flto
