The relations between datatypes and algorithms is given in the (approximately commutative) diagram shown below. Black lines indicate CPU algorithms, green lines indicate CUDA algorithms, blue lines indicate SYCL algorithms, and brown lines indicate Futhark algorithms. Solid algorithms are ready for use, dashed algorithms are in development or future goals. Data types for different heterogeneous platforms are contracted for legibility, and identities are hidden.

Requirements and dependencies

OS & compilers:

Please note that due to the complexity of this software and its build system, it may be somewhat fragile in the face of compiler version changes. The following are general guidelines for getting traccc to compile:

  • The C++ compiler must support C++17

In addition, the following requirements hold when CUDA is enabled:

  • The CUDA Toolkit version must be greater than major version 11
  • The CUDA Toolkit must not be minor version 11.3 due to a bug in the front-end compiler of that version
  • Ensure that the CUDA host compiler supports C++17 and is compatible with the nvcc compiler driver

The following table lists currently combinations of builds, compilers, and toolchains that are currently known to work (last updated 2022/01/24):

Running a partial chain with simplified simulation data

Users can generate muon-like particle simulation data with the pre-built detray geometries:

# Generate telescope geometry data
<build_directory>/bin/traccc_simulate_telescope --gen-vertex-xyz-mm=0:0:0 --gen-vertex-xyz-std-mm=0:0:0 --gen-mom-gev=100:100 --gen-phi-degree=0:0 --gen-events=10 --gen-nparticles=2000 --output-directory=detray_simulation/telescope_detector/n_particles_2000/ --gen-eta=1:3

# Generate toy geometry data
<build_directory>/bin/traccc_simulate_toy_detector --gen-vertex-xyz-mm=0:0:0 --gen-vertex-xyz-std-mm=0:0:0 --gen-mom-gev=100:100 --gen-phi-degree=0:360 --gen-events=10 --gen-nparticles=2000 --output-directory=detray_simulation/toy_detector/n_particles_2000/ --gen-eta=-3:3 --constraint-step-size-mm=1 --search-window 3:3

# Generate drift chamber data
<build_directory>/bin/traccc_simulate_wire_chamber --gen-vertex-xyz-mm=0:0:0 --gen-vertex-xyz-std-mm=0:0:0 --gen-mom-gev=2:2 --gen-phi-degree=0:360 --gen-events=10 --gen-nparticles=100 --output-directory=detray_simulation/wire_chamber/n_particles_100/ --gen-eta=-1:1 --constraint-step-size-mm=1 --search-window 3:3

The simulation will also generate the detector json files (geometry, material and surface_grid) in the current directory. It is user's responsibility to move them to an appropriate place (e.g. <detector_directory>) and match them to the input file arguments of reconstruction chains.

If users have a geometry json file already, it is also possible to run simulation with traccc_simulate application

# Given that users have a geometry json file
<build_directory>/bin/traccc_simulate  --output-directory=<output-directory>  --detector-file=<geometry_file> --material-file=<material-file> --grid-file=<grid-file>  --event=10 --constraint-step-size-mm=1

There are three types of partial reconstruction chain users can operate: seeding_example, truth_finding_example, and truth_fitting_example where their algorithm coverages are shown in the table below. Each of them starts from truth measurements, truth seeds, and truth tracks, respectively.

Category Clusterization Seeding Track finding Track fitting
seeding_example
truth_finding_example
truth_fitting_example

The dirft chamber will not produce meaningful results with seeding_example as the current seeding algorithm is only designed for 2D measurement objects. Truth finding works OK in general but the combinatoric explosion can occur for a few unlucky events, leading to poor pull value distributions. The followings are example commands:

# Run cuda seeding example for toy geometry

Users can open the performance root files (with --check-performance=true) and draw the histograms.

$ root -l performance_track_finding.root

(TFile *) 0x3871910

Continuous benchmark

  • Number of tracks per event: 5000
  • Algorithms used: seeding, track finding and track fitting

Troubleshooting

The following are potentially useful instructions for troubleshooting various problems with your build:

CUDA

Incompatible host compiler

You may experience errors being issued about standard library features, for example:

/usr/include/c++/11/bits/std_function.h:435:145: note:         ‘_ArgTypes’
/usr/include/c++/11/bits/std_function.h:530:146: error: parameter packs not expanded with ‘...’:
  530 |         operator=(_Functor&& __f)

In this case, your nvcc host compiler is most likely incompatible with your CUDA toolkit. Consider installing a supported version and selecting it through the CUDAHOSTCXX environment variable at build-time.
