Hi, Damian told me that the correct avx512 flag to be checked is the avx512f, which is AVX512F - AVX-512 Foundation is base of the 512-bit SIMD instruction extensions which is a comprehensive list of features for most HPC and enterprise applications. AVX-512 Foundation is the natural extensions to AVX/AVX2 which is extended using the EVEX prefix which builds on the existing VEX prefix. Any processor that implements any portion of the AVX-512 extensions MUST implement AVX512F. according to NVIDIA. Now I get the next problem when I want to configure ELPA for usage with GPU acceleration. The ea runs on "normal" nodes without GPUs and I don't know whether the auto_detect_cpu_features would detect GPUs anyway, so I have to add the additional options --enable-gpu --with-GPU-compute-capability="sm_70" (the capability is just an example) Now with the new ELPA easyblock neither configopts nor common_configopts seem to be defined, so how can I add those features?
