[mpich-discuss] Cross-compile mpich-3.2 with Intel compilers collection

[Yurij Goncharuk]

Hello!

I'm using Intel compilers collection from Parallel Studio 2019 and trying to build MPICH-3.2 against it for the recent CPU. My configure scenario:

MPICHLIB_CFLAGS="-xCORE-AVX512" \
MPICHLIB_CXXFLAGS="-xCORE-AVX512" \
MPICHLIB_FCFLAGS="-xCORE-AVX512" \
MPICHLIB_FFLAGS="-xCORE-AVX512" \
LDFLAGS="-Wl,--disable-new-dtags" \
./configure \
CC="/opt/intel/bin/icc" \
CXX="/opt/intel/bin/icpc" \
FC="/opt/intel/bin/ifort" \
F77="/opt/intel/bin/ifort" \
--with-pic \
--enable-shared \
AR="ar" \ 
RANLIB="ranlib" \ 
--enable-f77 \
--enable-fc \
--enable-cxx \
--enable-fast=all,nompit \
--prefix=/usr \
--host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu \
--with-cross=/root/fort.types

/root/fort.types contains:

CROSS_F77_SIZEOF_INTEGER=4
CROSS_F77_SIZEOF_REAL=4
CROSS_F77_SIZEOF_DOUBLE_PRECISION=8
CROSS_F77_TRUE_VALUE=1
CROSS_F77_FALSE_VALUE=0
CROSS_F90_ADDRESS_KIND=8
CROSS_F90_INTEGER_KIND=4

configure completes successfully but build fails with the following error:

CC       src/glue/romio/lib_libmpi_la-all_romio_symbols.lo

make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/mpich-3.2'

I google about this and have founded that mpif90model.h isn't initialized and therefore macros MPIR_F90_* is undefined. Also there was mentioned that:

"More specifically, the binaries that are supposed to run and tell configure what it wants to know fail to link because configure tries to set rpath."

How can I done cross compile MPICH-3.2 against Intel compilers without disabling fortran libraries?

I compile MPICH-3.2 in Docker environment with SLES 11 SP4 as container OS

Thank’s to all for any help!
