nehaljwani commented on issue #9273: Enhancements to the build mechanism
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/9273#issuecomment-354709583
@szha I had checked out 1.0.0 and tried building mxnet with the following:
```
export MKLROOT=""
make -j${CPU_COUNT} \
AR="$AR" \
CC="$CC" \
CXX="$CXX" \
USE_CUDA=0 \
USE_CUDNN=0 \
USE_OPENCV=1 \
USE_LAPACK=1 \
USE_BLAS=mkl \
USE_STATIC_MKL=NONE \
USE_INTEL_PATH=NONE \
USE_MKL2017=1 \
USE_PROFILER=1 \
USE_CPP_PACKAGE=1 \
USE_SIGNAL_HANDLER=1 \
ADD_CFLAGS="$CFLAGS" \
ADD_LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS" \
USE_OPENMP=1 \
USE_JEMALLOC=1 \
VERBOSE=1
```
- The if block in the `Makefile` for `USE_MKL2017` assumed that I was using
`MKL_ML` and added `MKL_ML` specific linker flags, which failed at the linking
stage.
- Since I used `MKLROOT` instead of `HOME_MKL`, the if block in
prepare_mkl.sh passed an empty argument to `mkdir`
- I wanted to use a more recent version (5.0.1) of `JEMALLOC` than what my
system package manager provided, but the Makefile didn't allow me to do so. It
only attempts a specific list of locations.
- I was using a cross compiler which shipped it's own ar utility, which I
wanted to use, rather than the one installed in the system.
