Aug 1, 2025

August 2025 (2025-08) performance update for stfc/PSyclone focused on stabilizing NEMO integration, strengthening test automation, and improving code quality. Key outcomes include robust error handling for NEMO unsupported OMPMinimiseSyncTrans cases; stabilization of NEMO integration tests and the results pipeline across NEMOv4/v5 with separate folders for async jobs and a dedicated NEMOv5 results step; extraction/integration test path fixes, mongosh adjustments, and reliable results reporting; targeted code quality improvements in utils.py and validation methods; API/documentation enhancements (private accessors, Node.has_a, spelling consistency) and release hygiene efforts (async file exclusion, changelog updates). These efforts reduce CI risk, accelerate feedback loops, and enhance reliability for downstream users and teams.

May 2025 PSyclone – concise performance-focused summary: - Implemented dynamic NEMO module import resolution and configuration with RESOLVE_IMPORTS and NEMO_MODULES_TO_IMPORT, enabling caching-based symbol information and flexible dependency handling across Nemo-related code. This includes updates to the core transformation modules (acc_kernels_trans.py, acc_loops_trans.py, omp_cpu_trans.py, omp_gpu_trans.py). - Added LFRic colour-tiling integration test with Met Office model, plus workflow and documentation improvements to support end-to-end validation. - Strengthened stability and reliability by excluding problematic BENCH files and a problematic NEMO file (dtatsd.f90) from processing, reducing runtime errors and flaky builds. - Improved user-facing error messaging and clarifications in tests, notably around array_reference handling. - Overall impact: faster, more reliable build-time symbol resolution; improved test coverage and maintainability; clearer diagnostics for users and developers. Business value: reduced maintenance burden, smoother downstream integration for Nemo/LFRic workflows, and more predictable CI/builds with targeted test and processing improvements.
