mpif90 error while linking

Arun_chandran — Fri, 18 Nov 2022 10:11:29 GMT

Hi,

mpif90 was giving error while executing it as given below.

home/arun/intel_mpi/mpi/2021.7.1/bin/mpif90 -DAdd_ -DInt=int -DUInt="unsigned int " -cpp -c a.f -o a.f.o
gfortran: warning: int: linker input file unused because linking not done
gfortran: error: int: linker input file not found: No such file or directory

Seems the wrapper compiler has issue in parsing "unsigned int ".

The below patch is fixing this issue.

$ cat intelmpi_mpif90_fix.patch
diff --git a/bin/mpif90 b/bin/mpif90

Hi ,

The below reproduces the error for me.

arun@arun-VirtualBox:~/fortran$ /opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/2021.7.1/bin/mpif90 -DAdd_ -DInt=int -DUInt="unsigned int " -cpp -c a.f90 -o a.f90.o
gfortran: error: int: No such file or directory
arun@arun-VirtualBox:~/fortran$ cat a.f90
program hello
print *, "Hello World!"
end program
arun@arun-VirtualBox:~/fortran$ /opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/2021.7.1/bin/mpif90 -DAdd_ -DInt=int -cpp -c a.f90 -o a.f90.o ----> no error

Hi,

Could you please try using the 'mpiifort' at the time of compilation, as we are able to get the expected results? Please find the commands:

mpiifort -DAdd_ -DInt=int -DUInt="unsigned int " -cpp -c a.f90 -o a.f90.o mpiifort a.f90.o -o a -lmpi mpirun -n 2 ./userhello

Please find the below screenshot for more details.

Thanks & Regards,

Yes there is no issue with mpiifort, mpif90 is the problematic one.
