Joe -

There are two different files being discussed, which might be the cause of the confusion. And this is really complicated, undocumented code I'm shamefully responsible for, so the confusion is quite understandable :).

There's asm.c, which on all non-Sparc v8 platforms just pre-processes down to the line:

  #include "opal/sys/atomic.h"

That header file includes all the inlined versions of the assembly, if the compiler is detected as supporting inline assembly.

There's then atomic-asm.S, which on all platforms is an assembly file (obviously) of all the functions which would be defined by opal/sys/atomic.h, to help deal with weird compilerisms. This file is generated from opal/sys/atomic.h by hand, which is a pain. The file is then preprocessed at configure time to generate a file that should work with the given compiler.

Anyway, that describes the difference between your two commands, the one that works and the one that doesn't. Why there's a failure, I'm not sure and unfortunately, I dont' have time to look into it in detail for the next month or so (in that mad, must finish dissertation this month, mode).

Tony,

 

My compile line with the error was the following. I believe the one you
had with the error was similar:

 

icc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../opal/include -I../../orte/include
-I../../ompi/include -I../../opal/mca/paffinity/linux/plpa/src/libplpa
-I../.. \

-O3 -DNDEBUG -finline-functions -fno-strict-aliasing -restrict -MT
atomic-asm.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/atomic-asm.Tpo -c atomic-asm.S -fPIC
-DPIC -o .libs/atomic-asm.o

 

However, your 1.2.8 output had:

 

icc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../opal/include -I../../orte/include
-I../../ompi/include -I../.. \

-O3 -DNDEBUG -finline-functions -fno-strict-aliasing -restrict -pthread
-MT asm.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/asm.Tpo -c asm.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/asm.o

 

If I use these options, the error goes away.  Here is output from my
screen:

 

ia64b <94> pwd

So ? for some reasons the compiler options changed.   Can you please

 

1. cd into the ?/opal/asm directory

2. Issue the BAD command I have at my prompt 95 and verify the error.

3. Issue the GOOD command I have at my prompt 96 and verify it works.

 

Now .. as to why the options are different .. .I don?t know.

 

Just trying to help,

Joe

I have attached the ./configure and make all output for version 1.2.8 as
directed in the Open MPI "Getting Help" section.   Hopefully, this will
guide us on what is going on with the 1.3 assembler code.
