This is a thing that came as part of the Intel cluster toolkit on zero but I am still figuring out how to use it, sp these are rough notes.
module add itac mpicc -trace -o foo foo.c mpicc -tcollect -o foo foo.c # not sure what the difference is itcpin -- foo mpiexec foo
The output is voluminous and held in memory, and it rapidly causes the nodes to swap. You can filter it so you only get traces for certain processes or nodes. My attempts to cut it down to a reasonable size while maintaining full traces have been a failure so far.
