Compile GCC¶

The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for C, C++, Objective-C, Fortran, Ada, Go, and D, as well as libraries for these languages (libstdc++,...).

- Some applications require C++11, this is only supported on GCC 4.8 or newer
- [intel 2018 support gcc versions 4.3 - 6.3](https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-c-compiler-180-for-linux-release-notes-for-intel-parallel-studio-xe-2018)
- compile GCC outside source-dir, to avoid modifying source code when compiling get fail
- cuda does not support gcc > 8

1. Download:¶

check all availabe versions GCC
at this link

or check this:

svn ls svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/tags | grep gcc | grep release
#or http://ftp.tsukuba.wide.ad.jp/software/gcc/releases

download

use this

wget http://ftp.tsukuba.wide.ad.jp/software/gcc/releases/gcc-10.3.0/gcc-10.3.0.tar.gz
tar xvf gcc-10.3.0.tar.gz

or git

git clone -b releases/gcc-11.2.0 https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc gcc-11.2.0

2. Install¶

Include 2 steps: - download prerequisites:

cd gcc-11.2.0
./contrib/download_prerequisites

- Configure: see this link

configure error: uint64_t or int64_t not found     --> need at least gcc-4.5

Eagle - Centos 7.8¶

git clone -b releases/gcc-11.2.0 https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc gcc-11.2.0
cd gcc-11.2
git checkout releases/gcc-11.2
./contrib/download_prerequisites

mkdir build && cd build
module load compiler/gcc-10.3         # to avoid:  uint64_t or int64_t not found

../configure --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,fortran \
  --enable-shared --disable-multilib --with-system-zlib \
  --enable-checking=release --prefix=/uhome/p001cao/app/compiler/gcc-11.2

make  -j 20         # not use -j to know what error
make install
# check: g++ -v

Tachyon - Centos 6.9¶

cd /home1/p001cao/0SourceCode
# git clone -b releases/gcc-11 https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc  gcc-11
cd gcc-11
# git checkout releases/gcc-11
./contrib/download_prerequisites

rm -rf build && mkdir build && cd build

myGCC=/home2/app/compiler/gcc/9.5.0
export PATH=$myGCC/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$myGCC/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

../configure --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,fortran \
  --enable-gold=yes --enable-checking=release --enable-shared --disable-multilib --with-system-zlib \
  --prefix=/home1/p001cao/app/compiler/gcc-11

make -j 16 && make install

CAN¶

--prefix=/home/thang/app/compiler/gcc-10.3

CAN_GPU¶

module load compiler/gcc-7.4   # cuda note support gcc > 8
--prefix=/home/thang/app/compiler/gcc-10.3'

3. Make module file¶

at directory: /uhome/p001cao/local/share/lmodfiles/GCC → create file "gcc-11.2"

module load compiler/gcc/9.5.0

# for Tcl script use only
set             topdir          /uhome/p001cao/app/compiler/gcc-11.2

setenv           CC gcc
setenv           CXX g++
setenv           FC gfortran
setenv           F90 gfortran
