Installation Instructions ************************* This file describes how to compile and install PvFMM. To install PvFMM you will need atleast: MPI C++ compiler, BLAS and FFTW3 libraries. The following section describes the installation steps. Basic Installation ================== Briefly, the shell commands `./configure; make; make install' should configure, build, and install this package. The simplest way to compile this package is: 1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type `./configure' to configure the package for your system. Running `configure' might take a while. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for. 2. Type `make' to compile the package. 3. The Doxygen source code documentation can be compiled using `make doxygen-doc' and documentation of algorithms, pseudocodes and results can be compiled using `make pdf-doc'. 4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and documentation. When installing into a prefix owned by root, it is recommended that the package be configured and built as a regular user, and only the `make install' phase executed with root privileges. 5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean'. To also remove the files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'. There is also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution. 6. To uninstall, `make uninstall' removes the installation. Compilers and Options ===================== Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking that the `configure' script does not know about. In most cases, running `./configure' will specify what options need to be specified manually. You can give `configure' initial values for configuration parameters by setting variables in the command line or in the environment. Here is an example: ./configure MPICXX="CC" Installation Names ================== By default, `make install' installs the package's library under `/usr/local/lib/pvfmm', header files under `/usr/local/include/pvfmm' and data files under '/usr/local/shared/pvfmm'. You can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the option `--prefix=PREFIX', where PREFIX must be an absolute file name. Troubleshooting =============== Make sure that if you use special directories for compilers etc, that your LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variables are set correctly (e.g., LD_LIBRARY_PATH on linux and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on macosx) Particular systems ================== Configure options for some systems on which this package was tested are given below: `Titan (ORNL)' module load fftw module swap PrgEnv-pgi PrgEnv-intel ./configure MPICXX="CC" F77="ftn" `Stampede (TACC)' (CUDA build) module load fftw3 cuda ./configure CXXFLAGS="-mavx -wd3218 -wd2570 -no-offload" --with-fftw="$TACC_FFTW3_DIR" FLIBS=" " --with-cuda="$TACC_CUDA_DIR" NVCCFLAGS="-arch=compute_35 -code=sm_35" `Stampede (TACC)' (Offload build) module load fftw3 ./configure CXXFLAGS="-mavx -wd3218 -wd2570" --with-fftw="$TACC_FFTW3_DIR" FLIBS=" " `Stampede (TACC)' (Native build) ./configure --host=x86_64-k1om-linux CXXFLAGS="-mmic -wd3218 -wd2570 -I$TACC_MKL_INC -DFFTW3_MKL" F77=ifort FFLAGS="-mmic" FLIBS=" " --with-fftw-include="$TACC_MKL_INC/fftw" --with-fftw-lib="-mkl" `Ronaldo (ICES)' ./configure CXXFLAGS="-msse4" --with-fftw="$FFTW_DIR" 'Cafu (ICES)' ./configure CXXFLAGS="-mavx" --with-fftw="$FFTW_DIR" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64/nvidia/" --with-cuda="$CUDA_DIR" NVCCFLAGS="-arch=compute_35 -code=sm_35" `configure' Invocation ====================== `configure' recognizes the following options to control how it operates. `--help=short' Print a summary of the options unique to this package's `configure', and exit. `--prefix=DIR' Use DIR as the installation prefix. `MPICXX=' Specify the MPI compiler and relevant flags. `CC=' Specify the C compiler and relevant flags. `F77=' Specify the Fortran compiler and relevant flags. `NVCCFLAGS=' Additional flags (eg: NVCCFLAGS="-arch=compute_30 -code=sm_30") `--with-openmp-flag=FLAGS' FLAGS to enable OpenMP. `--with-fftw=DIR' Set FFTW installation directory to DIR `--with-fftw-include=DIR' Set fftw3.h directory path to DIR `--with-fftw-lib=LIB' Set FFTW library to LIB `--with-blas=' Use BLAS library `--with-lapack=' Use LAPACK library `--with-cuda=PATH' Set to prefix where CUDA is installed [default=no] `--with-precomp-dir=DIR' Set directory for precomputed data files to DIR. Default path is `PVFMM_DIR' environment variable if defined, or the current directory at execution. `CXXFLAGS=-DUSE_SSE' To use SSE optimized imlementation of kernel functions. `configure' also accepts some other, not widely useful, options. Run `configure --help' for more details. `make' Invocation ====================== The following is a list of the available target for make: To compile the library: make To install the library: make install To compile all examples: make all-examples To compile documentation: make doxygen-doc pdf-doc
