[mpich-discuss] how to specify CFLAGS in configuring mpich

[Syed. Jahanzeb Maqbool Hashmi]

Hello

Sorry if I am being so noob in asking this.

I want to build mpich for armv7 and in doing so, I want to specify arm
related flags specifically, CFLAGS="-O2 –march=armv7-a –mtune=cortex-a8
–mfpu=neon
–mfloat-abi=hard –fomit-frame-pointer"

But when I configure mpich and specify CFLAGS it fails to start by throwing
this error.

linaro at weiser1:/mnt/nfs/install/mpich-3.0.4$ ./configure
> --prefix=/mnt/nfs/install/mpich-install/4.8/ CFLAGS="-O2 -march=armv7-a
> -mtune=cortex-a9 -mfpu=neon -float-abi=hard -fomit-frame-pointer"

Any help?
