I am getting successful builds on the OSU Power8 machine. Once openblas has a new release, I suspect we can provide pre-packaged power8 binaries.
I am building on CentOS 7 and this is what lscpu says: Architecture: ppc64le Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 160 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-159 Thread(s) per core: 8 Core(s) per socket: 10 Socket(s): 2 NUMA node(s): 2 Model: 8335-GCA L1d cache: 64K L1i cache: 32K L2 cache: 512K L3 cache: 8192K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79 NUMA node8 CPU(s): 80-159 I suspect you are running into a codegen issue. Let’s give it a few days and once llvm 3.9 releases, we can try that. If not, we may need Jameson’s help. -viral > On Aug 19, 2016, at 8:54 AM, Viral Shah <vi...@mayin.org> wrote: > > It is hard to say what is happening there.
