[petsc-users] problems after glibc upgrade to 2.17-157

I've tried with:


 --LIBS=/cm/shared/apps/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.3.210/linux/compiler/lib/intel64_lin/libifcore.a -lstdc++


but that doesn't seem to make a difference.


With the option --with-cxx=0 the configure part does work(!), but then I get


**************************ERROR*************************************
  Error during compile, check Linux-x86_64-Intel/lib/petsc/conf/make.log
  Send it and Linux-x86_64-Intel/lib/petsc/conf/configure.log to petsc-maint at mcs.anl.gov
*******************************************************************


See the attached log files.

Satish,

I tried your suggestion:

--with-clib-autodetect=0 --with-fortranlib-autodetect=0 --with-cxxlib-autodetect=0 LIBS=LIBS=/path_to/libifcore.a

I guess I don't really need "LIBS= " twice (?) so I've used this line:

LIBS=/cm/shared/apps/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.3.210/linux/compiler/lib/intel64_lin/libifcore.a

Unfortunately, this approach also fails (attached log):

Ah, this error is much easier:

Executing: mpif90  -o /tmp/petsc-3GfeyZ/config.compilers/conftest    -fPIC -g -O3  /tmp/petsc-3GfeyZ/config.compilers/conftest.o /tmp/petsc-3GfeyZ/config.compilers/cxxobj.o  /tmp/petsc-3GfeyZ/config.compilers/confc.o   -ldl /cm/shared/apps/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.3.210/linux/compiler/lib/intel64_lin/libifcore.a
Possible ERROR while running linker: exit code 256
stderr:
/tmp/petsc-3GfeyZ/config.compilers/cxxobj.o:(.gnu.linkonce.d.DW.ref.__gxx_personality_v0+0x0): undefined reference to `__gxx_personality_v0'

Intel as lazy writing its C++ compiler, so it uses some of g++. If you want to use C++, you will need to add -lstdc++ to your LIBS variable (I think).
Otherwise, please turn it off using --with-cxx=0.

  Thanks,

     Matt

There are multiple libifcore.a in the intel compiler lib: one in intel64_lin and one in intel64_lin_mic. Tried both, got same error.

Do you have similar issues with gnu compilers?

It must be some incompatibility with intel compilers with this glibc change.

Thre is a bug in configure [Matt?] that eats away some of the log - so
I don't see the exact error you are getting.

If standalone micc/mpif90 etc work - then you can try the following additional options:

--with-clib-autodetect=0 --with-fortranlib-autodetect=0 --with-cxxlib-autodetect=0 LIBS=LIBS=/path_to/libifcore.a

[replace "path_to" with the correct path to the ifort lubifcore.a library]

Note: I have a RHEL7 box with this glibc - and I don't see this issue.
