Re: [OMPI devel] 1.5.5rc1 tested: MacOS/ppc (w/ 1 failure and a "CMR")

Ah, I see that my problems on MacOS 10.4 are already a moot point, as my "option (c)" has already been implemented. From README in 1.5 branch: - OS X (10.5, 10.6), 32 and 64 bit (x86_64), with gcc and Absoft compilers (*) and from trunk: - OS X (10.5, 10.6, 10.7), 32 and 64 bit (x86_6

As a point for discussion, I am going to offer a simple solution: c) Ignore this for 1.5.5 and raise the minimum MacOS version from 10.4 to 10.5 for ompi 1.6.x and 1.7.x Any strong opinions? -Paul On 2/15/2012 10:29 AM, Paul H. Hargrove wrote: I wanted to note that MacOS 10.4 on *X86* has th

I wanted to note that MacOS 10.4 on *X86* has the same "WEAK" definitions in opal_config.h. Yet it can build ompi-1.5.x with only WARNING about duplicate symbols. I just tried, and the test code Matthias sent worked too: $ ./bin/mpicc pmpi_test.c /usr/bin/ld: warning multiple definitions of symb

Thanks for testing, Paul. I think we need an additional configure test which disables VT if a) weak symbol support is disabled/not available - or more precise - b) configuring on PPC/Mac10.4 and the used GNU compiler version is older or equal to 4.0.1 I prefer to option b) because VT (i.e. P

Unfortunately, we don't have access to a PPC system with MacOS 10.4 to try to reproduce the error. Paul, could you please check for the definition of the macro OPAL_HAVE_WEAK_SYMBOLS in ompi_config.h? I assume that the ancient GNU compiler on PPC/MacOS10.4 does not support weak-symbols which ca

I've attempted to reproduce the failure reported below for MacOS 10.4 for PPC on an X86-64 system. First, I've realized that while I reported "make check" as the source of the problem, it occurs at "make". Regardless of that mistake in my reporting, I was unable to reproduce the problem, makin

Using the 1.5.5rc1 tarball, I've repeated tests on the following platforms for which I recently reported 1.4.5rc1 results: MacOS 10.5 (Leopard) on PPC: powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5488) MacOS 10.4 (Tiger) on PPC: powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1
