[mpich-discuss] A comment and a problem with MPICH 3.2.1

[Martin Cuma]

I finally discovered that MPICH 3.2.1 includes ofi netmod which I am 
trying to build to provide unified library for tcp and InfiniBand. That's 
awesome since I am looking forward to ofi as a replacement for the old mxm 
netmod.

So far it's working great, though it seems like the performance is lagging 
a bit behind the old mxm netmod on a few IB clusters I tried but I figure 
that's due to the ofi infancy.

However, I am having trouble building 3.2.1 with ofi using PGI compilers 
(18.1), where they complain:

Any thought on what can be the problem? The same build went fine with GNU 
and Intel compilers.

The suggestion concerns verbose make output. The user's guide says to run 
"make VERBOSE=1" to see what I pasted above. However, that did not work 
for me. What did work is "make V=1". If that is indeed the current magic 
word to make make verbose, can you please update the user's guide to save 
us (including me again) time to search through the Makefile to figure this 
out?

Thanks,
MC
