When trying to configure the OMPI trunk on a Solaris-11/x86-64 with --enable-openib, I see the following error not seen with the 1.7 branch:
*** Compiler flags checking which of CFLAGS are ok for debugger modules... -DNDEBUG -m64 -mt checking for debugger extra CFLAGS... -g checking for the C compiler vendor... (cached) sun checking if want to add padding to the openib BTL control header... no checking for fcntl.h... (cached) yes checking for sys/poll.h... (cached) yes checking infiniband/verbs.h usability... yes checking infiniband/verbs.h presence... yes checking for infiniband/verbs.h... yes looking for library without search path checking for ibv_open_device in -libverbs... no checking if ConnectX XRC support is enabled... no checking if dynamic SL is enabled... no configure: WARNING: Verbs support requested (via --with-verbs) but not found. configure: WARNING: If you are using libibverbs v1.0 (i.e., OFED v1.0 or v1.1), you *MUST* have both the libsysfs headers and libraries installed. Later versions of libibverbs do not require libsysfs. configure: error: Aborting. This is despite an earlier: checking if MCA component btl:openib can compile... yes The error above is with the Solaris Studio compilers, but the same happens with the GNU compilers. The (compressed) full configure output for the GNU case is attached. This is a regression relative to the current 1.7.4rc, in which the openib btl works fine on Solaris-11/x86-64, by which I mean I can configure with --enable-openib and the following command line works: mpirun -host pcp-j-19,pcp-j-20 -mca btl openib,self -np 2 examples/ring_c My best guess is that either the libsysfs requirement itself OR its associated test is Linux-specific. -Paul -- Paul H.
