- allows reuse of an int64_t scotch library with label-size 32
and/or label-size 64.
COMP: prefer scotch/metis/kahip libraries with label-size qualifiers
- as noted in #2200, mpirun may insert mpi libraries higher in the
library loader which can cause masking of our ThirdParty libraries
of the same name. With scotch (for example), the operating system
may have an int32 version installed but we have an int64 version
compiled under ThirdParty. Runing in serial is fine, but in parallel
we resolve to the (incorrect) system version due to the adjustments
in mpirun.
- adjust the ThirdParty make scripts to also create corresponding
links (eg, 'ln -s libscotch.so libscotch-int64.so') and prefer
linkage with these qualified libraries.
Eg, -L$(SCOTCH_LIB_DIR) -lscotch$(SCOTCH_LIBNAME_SUFFIX)
this prevent accidental runtime linkage with the system versions.
STYLE: simplify scotch interface code by using local functions
- align wmake have_* scripts to support version query as per current
develop branch
- use config.sh/ fallbacks when the corresponding *_ARCH_PATH is empty
(eg, BOOST, CGAL, FFTW).
This aids when building outside of the regular OpenFOAM environment.
- missed detection of system libraries when installed with multiarch
paths like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
CONFIG: improve handling of group/user config files (#928)
- changed bashrc handling of FOAM_CONFIG_NOUSER to use
FOAM_CONFIG_MODE instead. Propagate into foamEtcFile to make this
a stickier control.
This change allows better control, but also enables cluster
installations to define their own value within the OpenFOAM prefs.sh
file to prevent users accidentally mis-configuring things if
necessary.
- remove undocumented handling of an (a)ll mode in foamEtcFile to
avoid potential pitfalls.
- add support for FOAM_CONFIG_ETC handling.
This allows injection of an extra search layer when finding
project etc files
ENH: improvements to foamConfigurePaths (#928)
- handle FOAM_CONFIG_ETC implicitly, or explicitly with the new
-etc option.
STYLE: more explicit wording in foamConfigurePaths usage (#1602)
- document that an absolute path (eg, -scotch-path) overrides/ignores
the equivalent ThirdParty setting (eg, -scotch)
- longer options -system-compiler and -third-compiler for -system
and -third, respectively. Clearer as to their purpose.
- adjust the location sanity check to look for META-INFO directory.
- if FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN is unset and some scripts set this to /usr/lib*
as a fallback (eg, to avoid an undefined value) this will cause a
system library to be found before appropriate *_ARCH_PATH entry.
This was noticed during a scotch compilation without third-party:
resulting in the system library (/usr/lib64/libscotch.so) to be found
instead of the SCOTCH_ARCH_PATH location
(/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib64/).
Simply changing the search order doesn't work for use, since we wish
to retain a preference for any dynamic libraries discovered in a
real FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN.
Circumvent these issues by only taking libraries from
FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN if it also points to a location within ThirdParty.
- generalize some of the library extensions (.so vs .dylib).
Provide as wmake 'sysFunctions'
- added note about unsupported/incomplete system support
- centralize detection of ThirdParty packages into wmake/ subdirectory
by providing a series of scripts in the spirit of GNU autoconfig.
For example,
have_boost, have_readline, have_scotch, ...
Each of the `have_<package>` scripts will generally provide the
following type of functions:
have_<package> # detection
no_<package> # reset
echo_<package> # echoing
and the following type of variables:
HAVE_<package> # unset or 'true'
<package>_ARCH_PATH # root for <package>
<package>_INC_DIR # include directory for <package>
<package>_LIB_DIR # library directory for <package>
This simplifies the calling scripts:
if have_metis
then
wmake metisDecomp
fi
As well as reducing clutter in the corresponding Make/options:
EXE_INC = \
-I$(METIS_INC_DIR) \
-I../decompositionMethods/lnInclude
LIB_LIBS = \
-L$(METIS_LIB_DIR) -lmetis
Any additional modifications (platform-specific or for an external build
system) can now be made centrally.
