Hi, the message visible below, appeared yesterday in the Lmod mailing list.
The two links available there are worthy pointers, I recommend you check them out if you wish to validate that your preferred toolchain follows Intel’s propositions. esp. the link about GCC/glibc compatibility has certain implications per linux distro... enjoy, Fotis ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Fredrik Unger <[email protected]> List-Post: [email protected] Date: Thu, Nov 27, 2014 at 3:01 PM Subject: [Lmod-users] Template generator... To: Lmod-users <[email protected]> Hi, Well I extended my generator with Intel MPI / Intel Compiler dependencies. Attached in intel.tar.gz is some scripts that generate modulefiles. It assumes that compilers are installed in /opt/intel and MPI in /opt/intel/impi Run : ./install-intel.sh ./install-intel-mpi.sh to install the templates. (scripts are hardcoded to /app/Module/..) Now this makes a few shortcuts. It uses the same template for all compilers and MPI. There might be version differences that I have not considered. intel-compiler-mpi.txt contains the matrix that can be found here: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-mpi-library-and-composer-xe-compatibility I am considering extending the templates to CC etc but awaiting some feedback to this. Maybe there are other trouble with this aproach. GCC / Intel MPI is also such a thing. Intel MPI might need ICC libraries as well, and gfortran and g++ will probably not work well. I also did not find a GCC ICC compatibility chart more than Appendix A in this file : https://software.intel.com/sites/products/collateral/hpc/compilers/intel_linux_compiler_compatibility_with_gnu_compilers.pdf (Page 17-18) and that does not really say how well Intel MPI plays with GCC.. /Fredrik Unger -- echo "sysadmin know better bash than english" | sed s/min/mins/ \ | sed 's/better bash/bash better/' # signal detected in a CERN forum
