Obtaining ATLAS 3.10.0 for Windows 7 64

Question

I am having difficulty compiling ATLAS on 64-bit Windows 7 and any help would be appreciated! I am trying to associate it with lapack-3.4.1.

The command I use in Cygwin is:

../ATLAS/configure -D c -DWALL --with-netlib-lapack-tarfile=../lapack-3.4.1.tgz -b 64 -Si archdef 0 -Ss ADdir ../ATLAS/WINAD 

The output I get is:

 make: `xconfig' is up to date. ./xconfig -ds /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS/ -db /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built -D c -DWALL -Si lapackref 1 -b 64 -Si archdef 0 -Ss ADdir ../ATLAS/WINAD gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_asm.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make: *** [probe_asm.o] Error 1 gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_vec.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make: *** [probe_vec.o] Error 1 gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_arch.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make: *** [probe_arch.o] Error 1 gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_arch.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make: *** [probe_arch.o] Error 1 gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_arch.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make: *** [probe_arch.o] Error 1 gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_arch.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files compilation terminated. make: *** [probe_arch.o] Error 1 gcc -I/f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/include -g -w -o xisgcc /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/IsGcc.c atlconf_misc.o gcc.exe: error: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/IsGcc.c: No such file or directory Makefile:39: recipe for target `xisgcc' failed make: *** [xisgcc] Error 1 OS configured as Win64 (9) Bad ASM value=0, res='NULL' Assembly configured as (0) Bad VECFLAG value=0, res='NULL' Vector ISA Extension configured as (0,0) Bad MACHTYPE value=0, res='NULL' Architecture configured as UNKNOWN (0) Bad CPU MHZ value=0, res='NULL' Clock rate configured as 0Mhz Bad NCPU value=0, res='NULL' Maximum number of threads configured as 0 Cannot detect CPU throttling.

Trying the same in the msys shell gives me:

Answer 1

• The Bad OS value is caused by using ATLAS using the tmpnam function to generate temp file names (and then trying to read the command results from temp), which in some MinGW implementations return file paths in the root directory (you can see "Access is denied" and " cat: \ XXXX: There is no such file or directory "if you add -v 2 to .../configure args).

You can try to alleviate the problem by changing the ATL_tmpnam function to use tempnam to return temp files to the current directory (which you must have write access to):

(the next one, of course, is a dirty hack and can be improved)

• gcc: /f/Coursework/Code/python/compile/built/../ATLAS//CONFIG/src/probe_asm.c: No such file or directory gcc.exe: fatal error: no input files with completely acceptable (for Cygwin ) file paths caused by starting the wrong gcc: if you run which gcc , you will see that this is not from Cygwin /usr/bin/ , but from another place on your system (possibly added to %PATH% MinGW). Not being "knowledgeable" about Cygwin, he considers these paths nonexistent. Solution: add --cc=/usr/bin/gcc or a similar argument .../configure .
