c++ - 带有 boost::mpi::packed_oarchive 和 packed_iarchive 的未知子类的 MPI 传输

Question

我正在尝试传输一类未知的子类，但已知的基类。

我相信这应该可以使用boost::serialization, BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID和boost::mpi，但总的来说我对 C++ 还是很陌生

这是我拥有的代码：

#include <boost/mpi.hpp>
#include <boost/mpi/environment.hpp>
#include <boost/mpi/communicator.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/string.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/serialization.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/export.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/vector.hpp>
#include <iostream>

namespace mpi = boost::mpi;


class Action {
protected:
    int start_rank;
    std::string greeting;

    Action(std::string greeting) {
        mpi::communicator world;
        this->start_rank = world.rank();
        this->greeting = greeting;
    };

private:

    friend class boost::serialization::access;
    template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive &ar, const unsigned int version) {
        ar & this->start_rank;
        ar & this->greeting;
    };

public:

    Action() = default;

    void invoke() {
        mpi::communicator world;
        std::cout << this->greeting << "! I am process " << world.rank() << " of " << world.size()
            << ". I was created on " << this->start_rank << "." << std::endl;
    };
};


class HelloAction : public Action {

public:
    HelloAction() : Action("Hello") {};

};

class GoodByeAction : public Action {

public:
    GoodByeAction() : Action("Good bye") {};

};

BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID(Action, "Action");
BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID(HelloAction, "HelloAction");
BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID(GoodByeAction, "GoodByeAction");

int main() {
    mpi::environment env;
    mpi::communicator world;

    HelloAction *hello = new HelloAction();
    mpi::broadcast(world, hello, 0);
    hello->invoke();

    GoodByeAction *bye = new GoodByeAction();
    mpi::broadcast(world, bye, 1);
    bye->invoke();

    world.barrier();

    if (world.rank() == 0) {
        std::cout << "sending unknown action classes!" << std::endl;
        HelloAction *yup = new HelloAction();
        boost::mpi::packed_oarchive oar(world);
        oar << yup;
    }
    else {
        std::cout << "receiving unknown action classes!" << std::endl;
        Action *action = NULL;
        boost::mpi::packed_iarchive iar(world);
        iar >> action;
        action->invoke();
    }

    return 0;
}

编译/运行：

mpic++ -g -std=c++1y hello.cpp -lboost_serialization -lmpi -lboost_mpi
mpiexec -np 2 ./a.out

这似乎运行得很好：

Hello! I am process 0 of 2. I was created on 0.
Hello! I am process 1 of 2. I was created on 0.
Good bye! I am process 1 of 2. I was created on 1.
Good bye! I am process 0 of 2. I was created on 1.

...直到到达“发送/接收未知操作类”，我得到运行时错误：

receiving unknown action classes!
sending unknown action classes!

问题：

尽管问题被标记为boost，但是否有可能在有或没有提升的情况下传输一个未知的子类？我知道我可以通过字符串名称进行各种注册，以及一个控制反转的人来处理创建，但我认为这是BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT_GUID.
有没有办法用我所拥有的来完成这项工作？
是否有一个相当简单的替代方案（不使用boost）来使这项工作与常规的 ol' MPI 一起工作？

您非常接近：首先，您缺少打包档案的实际通信功能。您正在尝试从该存档中提取而packed_iarchive没有收到任何内容。例如，您可以broadcast按照描述使用：

对于打包的档案，根发送一个 packed_oarchive [...]，而其他进程接收一个 acked_iarchive [...]。

但是，只需将调用添加到您的示例将实例化 aAction而不是 a HelloAction。这需要更多的努力：

使用非虚拟类的基类指针不是一个好主意。它可能适用于您的情况，因为子类只不过是不同的构造函数，但对于稍微复杂的示例来说它会成为问题。
Boost 期望（反）序列化调用使用对称类型。您不能序列化 aHelloAction*然后反序列化 a Action*，无论它是否是虚拟类¹。如果你必须Action*在这两种情况下都使用，你当然也必须使用虚拟类，这样 boost 实际上就知道运行时类型。从技术上讲，您可以将一个序列化为Action*一个HelloAction对象，然后反序列化一个Action*产生原始切片 Action的部分。同样，这适用于您的示例，但对于更复杂的示例则失败，因此不是一个好主意。
您还必须专门serialize研究子类¹。

将所有这些放在一起，一个工作示例如下所示：注意：我添加了更多输出以验证是否使用正确的类型创建了对象。

#include <boost/mpi.hpp>
#include <boost/mpi/environment.hpp>
#include <boost/mpi/communicator.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/string.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/serialization.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/export.hpp>
#include <boost/serialization/vector.hpp>
#include <iostream>

namespace mpi = boost::mpi;


class Action {
protected:
    int start_rank;
    std::string greeting;

    Action(std::string greeting) {
        mpi::communicator world;
        std::cout << world.rank() << ": Creating a Action: " << greeting << std::endl;
        this->start_rank = world.rank();
        this->greeting = greeting;
    };
private:

    friend class boost::serialization::access;
    template<class Archive> void serialize(Archive &ar, const unsigned int version) {
        ar & this->start_rank;
        ar & this->greeting;
    };

public:

    virtual ~Action() = default;

    Action() { 
        mpi::communicator world;
        std::cout << world.rank() << ": Creating a naked Action" << std::endl;
    }

    void invoke() {
        mpi::communicator world;
        std::cout << this->greeting << "! I am process " << world.rank() << " of " << world.size()
            << ". I was created on " << this->start_rank << "." << std::endl;
    };
};


class HelloAction : public Action {

public:
    HelloAction() : Action("Hello") {
        mpi::communicator world;
        std::cout << world.rank() << ": Creating an HelloAction" << std::endl;
    }

    template<typename Archive>  
    void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int file_version) {  
        ar & boost::serialization::base_object<Action>(*this);
    }
};

class GoodByeAction : public Action {

public:
    GoodByeAction() : Action("Good bye") {
        mpi::communicator world;
        std::cout << world.rank() << ": Creating an GoodByeAction" << std::endl;
    }

    template<typename Archive>  
    void serialize(Archive & ar, const unsigned int file_version) {  
        ar & boost::serialization::base_object<Action>(*this);
    }
};

// It is totally fine to use the EXPORT (without GUID) for MPI
BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(GoodByeAction)
BOOST_CLASS_EXPORT(HelloAction)

int main() {
    mpi::environment env;
    mpi::communicator world;

    HelloAction *hello = new HelloAction();
    mpi::broadcast(world, hello, 0);
    hello->invoke();

    GoodByeAction *bye = new GoodByeAction();
    mpi::broadcast(world, bye, 1);
    bye->invoke();

    world.barrier();

    if (world.rank() == 0) {
        std::cout << "sending unknown action classes!" << std::endl;
        Action *yup = new HelloAction();
        boost::mpi::packed_oarchive oar(world);
        oar << yup;
        mpi::broadcast(world, oar, 0);
    }
    else {
        std::cout << "receiving unknown action classes!" << std::endl;
        boost::mpi::packed_iarchive iar(world);
        mpi::broadcast(world, iar, 0);
        Action *action = nullptr;
        iar >> action;
        std::cout << "RTTI: " << typeid(*action).name() << std::endl;
        action->invoke();
    }

    return 0;
}

关于普通的旧 MPI：对我来说，这听起来像是在重新发明轮子——当然可能但不一定可取。

¹我在文档中找不到关于此的明确声明。这是基于如果您尝试其他方式，事情就会大错特错。我将不胜感激对此的评论/更好的答案。
