SHM complete

Code stalls and resumes on KNL at cambridge. Curious.

CG iterations 23ms each, then 3200 ms pauses. Mean bandwidth reports
as 200MB/s. Comms dominant in the report. However, the time behaviour suggests it
is *bursty*.... Could be swap to disk?

+### Description
+This library provides data parallel C++ container classes with internal memory layout
+that is transformed to map efficiently to SIMD architectures. CSHIFT facilities
+are provided, similar to HPF and cmfortran, and user control is given over the mapping of
+array indices to both MPI tasks and SIMD processing elements.
+
+* Identically shaped arrays then be processed with perfect data parallelisation.
+* Such identically shaped arrays are called conformable arrays.
+
+The transformation is based on the observation that Cartesian array processing involves
+identical processing to be performed on different regions of the Cartesian array.
+
+The library will both geometrically decompose into MPI tasks and across SIMD lanes.
+Local vector loops are parallelised with OpenMP pragmas.
+
+Data parallel array operations can then be specified with a SINGLE data parallel paradigm, but
+optimally use MPI, OpenMP and SIMD parallelism under the hood. This is a significant simplification
+for most programmers.
+
+The layout transformations are parametrised by the SIMD vector length. This adapts according to the architecture.
+Presently SSE4, ARM NEON (128 bits) AVX, AVX2, QPX (256 bits), IMCI and AVX512 (512 bits) targets are supported.
+
+These are presented as `vRealF`, `vRealD`, `vComplexF`, and `vComplexD` internal vector data types. 
+The corresponding scalar types are named `RealF`, `RealD`, `ComplexF` and `ComplexD`.
+

+### Build setup for AMD EPYC / RYZEN
+
+The AMD EPYC is a multichip module comprising 32 cores spread over four distinct chips each with 8 cores.
+So, even with a single socket node there is a quad-chip module. Dual socket nodes with 64 cores total
+are common. Each chip within the module exposes a separate NUMA domain.
+There are four NUMA domains per socket and we recommend one MPI rank per NUMA domain.
+MPI-3 is recommended with the use of four ranks per socket,
+and 8 threads per rank. 
+
+The following configuration is recommended for the AMD EPYC platform.
+
+``` bash
+../configure --enable-precision=double\
+             --enable-simd=AVX2       \
+             --enable-comms=mpi3 \
+             CXX=mpicxx 
+```
+
+If gmp and mpfr are NOT in standard places (/usr/) these flags may be needed:
+``` bash

+               --with-mpfr=<path>       \
+```
+where `<path>` is the UNIX prefix where GMP and MPFR are installed. 
+
+Using MPICH and g++ v4.9.2, best performance can be obtained using explicit GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY flags for each MPI rank.
+This can be done by invoking MPI on a wrapper script omp_bind.sh to handle this. 
+
+It is recommended to run 8 MPI ranks on a single dual socket AMD EPYC, with 8 threads per rank using MPI3 and
+shared memory to communicate within this node:
+
+mpirun -np 8 ./omp_bind.sh ./Benchmark_dwf --mpi 2.2.2.1 --dslash-unroll --threads 8 --grid 16.16.16.16 --cacheblocking 4.4.4.4 
+
+Where omp_bind.sh does the following:
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+
+numanode=` expr $PMI_RANK % 8 `
+basecore=`expr $numanode \* 16`
+core0=`expr $basecore + 0 `
+core1=`expr $basecore + 2 `
+core2=`expr $basecore + 4 `
