Installation Notes
Cilk Plus
- MIT Installation Guide
- Cilk Plus Installation Guide
- Cilk Plus is installed on matrix.senecac.on.ca server and on the matrix partition of the workstations in T2108
- /usr/local/gcc/gcc-cilk/bin/g++
Tips for building from source (tested on Fedora 19)
Works but gets a "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" when testing out w1.cilk.cpp when cilk_for loops > 3 times.
- download snapshot gcc-2427776 (2013-05-20) (current version on matrix as of 2014-01-17)
- configure using:
- /path/to/configure --prefix=/path/to/installation --enable-languages="c,c++" --disable-multilib
Configuration
Linux
- add to .bash_profile
- alias gc++="/usr/local/gcc/gcc-cilk/bin/g++ -fcilkplus -ldl -lcilkrts"
- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/cilkplus-installation/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
- source /path/to/tbbvars.sh ia32 -ltbb
TBB
Configuration
Linux
- copy source script to your home directory
- cp /usr/local/gcc/tbb/bin/tbbvars.sh
- change permissions chmod u+x tbbvars.sh
- long hand notes
- add to LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/gcc/tbb41_20130613oss/lib/ia32/gcc4.1
- needed for dynamic loaded libraries
- use ldd <binary> to check
- -v option sends intermediate commands to cerr
OpenMP
Configuration
Linux
- add to gcc compile command -fopenmp
OpenCL
CUDA
- Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate | Select Software Downloads | Go To Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate 1.49GB | Download iso | Burn, if error burn again | Finally, install
