Can't compile CILK program with ICC in Intel Parallel XE studio

Hi All,

I installed Intel Parallel XE studio in my Ubuntu 10.04
(64 bits) system. The installation itself is smooth except it first
reports some unknown OS error. But I can complete the installation by
skipping this message. I checked in my installation directory, it has
very weird organization:

yuantang@Octave:/opt/intel$ ls -l

while
the 'icc' under 'bin' directory is a symbolic link to the 'icc' under
the directory 'compilerpro'. However, there's no 'mcpcom' under
'compilerpro' which is itself a symbolic link to 'compilerpro-12.0'. But
there's a 'mcpcom' found under 'compilerpro-12.0.0.025'. So, I manually
use the binary executable under 'compilerpro-12.0.0.025' to compile my
cilk program as follows:

icc -o heat.64 -O3 -DNDEBUG
-I/opt/intel/compilerpro-12.0.0.025/compiler/include/cilk -Wall -Werror
-mkl -xSSE4.2 -m64 heat.cpp common.cpp heat_loops.cpp
heat_recursive.cpp heat_util.cpp heat_tests.cpp heat_meta.cpp -L
/opt/intel/compilerpro-12.0.0.025/compiler/lib/intel64 -L lib/x86_64
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.3/../../../../lib64/crt1.o:
In function `_start':
(.text+0x20): undefined reference to `main'
make:
*** [heat.64] Error 1

Could anybody tell me what might be wrong
with that? and how to fix it?

Thanks !

Yuan,

If you source iccvars.sh under the top level "bin" directory (e.g. source bin/iccvars.sh intel64) the compiler build environment will be set and you can simply invoke icc without explicit path names for icc or the libraries, etc. Please let us know if that works for you.

Thanks,

Hi Mark,

Thank you so much for the help!

By "source /opt/intel/bin/iccvars.h", I can invoke icc, but if I compile it with CILK program, it reports:

icc -o heat.64 -O3 -DNDEBUG -Wall -Werror -mkl -xSSE4.2 -m64 heat.cpp common.cpp heat_loops.cpp
heat_recursive.cpp heat_util.cpp heat_tests.cpp heat_meta.cpp -L lib/x86_64
common.h(33): catastrophic error: cannot open source file "cilk.h"
#include

If I include the path to Intel CILK as follows, it will report:

icc -o heat.64 -O3 -DNDEBUG -Wall -Werror -mkl -xSSE4.2 -I/opt/intel/compilerpro-12.0.0.025/compiler/include/cilk -m64 heat.cpp common.cpp heat_loops.cpp heat_recursive.cpp heat_util.cpp heat_tests.cpp heat_meta.cpp -L lib/x86_64
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.3/../../../../lib64/crt1.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x20): undefined reference to `main'
make: *** [heat.64] Error 1

In the above 'make', "-I/opt/intel/compilerpro-12.0.0.025/compiler/include/cilk" is the location of Intel cilk header file.

Would you give me more advices?

Thanks!

Yuan,

Please try:

#include or

#include "cilk.h"

and let us know if that resolves the issue.

Thanks,

Hi, mark
I also have the problem that can't find the cilk.h when I make the cilk samples with the Intel Parallel XE studio.
Do you mean that "#include or #include "cilk.h" " in the cilk program?
The cilk samples have included these.

So, would you give us other advices?
Thanks.

From linear_recurrence.cpp:

*snip*
#include
*snip*

Then if I compile:

[cilk_samples]$ icc -V -I. -c linear-recurrence.cpp
Intel C Compiler XE for applications running on Intel 64, Version 12.0.0 Beta Build 20100512

Edison Design Group C/C++ Front End, version 4.1 (May 12 2010 20:29:19)

Works for me. Can you do a "which icc" and an "icc -V" and send me the output for those two commands?
