failure make samin_k.o samax_k.o

[wuhwyy]

Hi Xianyi,

Need your help! Thanks in advance

I failed to make samin_k.o samax_k.o.
Used gmake BINARY=64 CC=gcc USE_THREAD=0 -j8
come up with the following message:

Hi Archy,

Could you try OpenBLAS develop branch? I think it fixed this issue.

Xianyi

[wuhwyy]

thanks Xianyi,

Just tried the develop branch. The same error persists.
Did anyone else has this problem too?

Archy

[xianyi]

I think it looks like " .size samin_k, .-samin_k; .section .note.GNU-stack,"",@progbits"

What's your OS and gcc version?

[wuhwyy]

Hi Xianyi,
I am running SunOS 5.11 using virtual machine in Win7
gcc is 4.7.3

thanks
Archy

[xianyi]

We didn't test building OpenBLAS on SunOS. Thus, we need setup the testbed.

[wuhwyy]

Thanks all the same. the funny thing is I don't think I had this problem when the first time I successfully build OpenBLAS on the very same machine.

[xianyi]

Could you try to apply this patch? This patch removes executable stack markings.

Hi Xianyi,
I just tried it. Similar error happened.
But if I compile using gcc 4.5.2, no such error appears, but I ran into:

gcc -c -O2 -DEXPRECISION -m128bit-long-double -fopenmp -Wall -m64 -DF_INTERFACE_GFORT -fPIC -DSMP_SERVER -DUSE_OPENMP -DMAX_CPU_NUMBER=2 -DASMNAME= -DASMFNAME=_ -DNAME=_ -DCNAME= -DCHAR_NAME="_" -DCHAR_CNAME="" -DNO_AFFINITY -I. -DHAVE_LAPACK_CONFIG_H -I ../include -o lapacke_make_complex_float.o lapacke_make_complex_float.c

lapacke_make_complex_float.c:47:17: error: ‘_Imaginary_I’ undeclared (first use in this function)

gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/home/achy/preprocessor_SunOS/lib/OPENBLAS/OpenBLAS-develop/lapack-netlib/lapacke/utils'

I suppose SunOS doesn't have the correct header file? Do you have any idea?

Thanks
Archy

[xianyi]

Hi @wuhwyy ,

If you didn't need LAPACKE, you can make NO_LAPACKE=1

Or, you can try #305

[wuhwyy]

thanks Xianyi. Will keep you updated.

[wuhwyy]

Hi Xianyi,

So with gcc 4.5.2 and NO_LAPACKE=1, it successfully build on SunOS 5.11(or 11.0).
You can close this issue now.

I will keep on checking the problem of incorrect complex.h in SunOS, and keep you updated.

Thanks
Archy
