Static executable was OK, but dynamic one caused segmentation fault.

Hi, everyone!

I used a subroutine named 'spevd' (in Fortran 95 syntax) provided in Intel MKL for Linux to obtain eigenvalues of a real symmetric matrix. The source code and Makefile are attached below. The problem that I encountered was the static executable was OK, but dynamic executable could cause segmentation fault.

Suggestions are appreciated!

Thank you!

Sorry, I think I really need to read the Intel MKL User's Guide very carefully!

After I read Chapter 3 and 5, I found the aforementioned problem is in the Makefile.

The corrected one is attached:

abc@debian:~/test/eigentest$ cat Makefile
FC = ifort
MKLOPT = -lmkl_lapack95
SLIBS = -lguide -lpthread
LDFLAGS = -L$(MKLPATH)
INFLAGS = -I$(MKLINCLUDE)

static:
$(FC) eigentest.f90 $(LDFLAGS) $(INFLAGS) $(MKLOPT)
-Wl,--start-group
$(MKLPATH)/libmkl_intel_lp64.a
$(MKLPATH)/libmkl_intel_thread.a
$(MKLPATH)/libmkl_core.a
-Wl,--end-group
$(SLIBS) -o eigentest.exe

dynamic:
$(FC) eigentest.f90 $(LDFLAGS) $(INFLAGS) $(MKLOPT)
-lmkl_intel_lp64
-lmkl_intel_thread
-lmkl_core
$(SLIBS) -o eigentest.exe
