Errors when compiling with GNU Standard C++ Library

Hi,

There seems to be an incompability between Intel Compiler 14.0.1 and the "fenv.h" header in the GNU Standard C++ Library provided with GCC 4.8.1.

Here is an example code :

[mboisson@r103-n2 tmp]$ cat test_fenv.cpp

[cpp]
#include <fenv.h>

fexcept_t data;

[/cpp]

[mboisson@r103-n2 tmp]$ echo $CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

[mboisson@r103-n2 tmp]$ icpc -c test_fenv.cpp

#### compiles fine without the gnu stdlibc++


[mboisson@r103-n2 tmp]$ export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/software6/compilers/gcc/4.8.1/include/c++/4.8.1/
[mboisson@r103-n2 tmp]$ icpc -c test_fenv.cpp

[bash]
test_fenv.cpp(3): error: identifier "fexcept_t" is undefined
  fexcept_t data;
  ^

compilation aborted for test_fenv.cpp (code 2)

[/bash]

#### does not compile either when specifying std=c++11

[mboisson@r103-n2 tmp]$ icpc -std=c++11 -c test_fenv.cpp

[bash]

This by the way prevents me from compiling boost 1.55.0 with Intel 14.0.1 and the GNU Standard C++ library , while it compiles just fine with GCC itself.

Take a look at a declaration: ... typedef unsigned short fexcept_t; ... in the fenv.h. If it is missed then this is the bug. Or, search for that declaration in all header files to confirm that it is Not declared.

Hi again,

Looked like the message did not go through, likely because of the large code block. Here is the code for the fenv.h

http://code.woboq.org/userspace/include/c++/4.8.1/fenv.h.html

Hi,

I did some testing by changing the fenv.h from glibc++.

Notably, if I change the line

# include_next <fenv.h>

by

# include_next </usr/include/fenv.h>

 

Both the -std=c++11 and the one without work. It seems that ICC does not deal with "include_next" directive properly, and instead of including the system fenv.h, finds only the one from glibc++ and includes this one a second time.

Best regards,

Maxime

Hi once more,

It seems that if I add /usr/include at the end of my CPATH, then it works. Isn't /usr/include searched by default by the precompiler ?

Is there a way, beside overwriting CPATH, to add /usr/include in the default search paths for icpc ?

Best regards,

Maxime

The behaviors of include_next have been discussed before, e.g. http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/topic/338378

By default, icpc should search the same include paths as the active g++, but it's even possible that icpc doesn't see the same g++ active as you expect.  Typical problems include a new shell cluster management schemes changing the order of g++ versions on search path. Still, I think it's safer to depend on 'which g++' than on setting an INCLUDE_PATH.   Anyway, I think it's possible as you found for /usr/include to be skipped if you don't specify it.

Hi Tim,

We only have a single g++ on our system, and it was compiled manually, from source code. We

1) Installed the CentOS6 g++ package.

2) Installed gcc 4.8.1 from source

3) bootstrapped the gcc 4.8.1 so it does not depend anymore on the CentOS6 default

4) uninstalled the centos6 default

5) installed ICC with gcc 4.8.1 in the paths.

 

We still have the glibc from the OS (we were unsuccessfull in making the loader work without it), but not the glibc++ (we have the one from source).

I suppose fenv.h would be found in glibc, and would be selected according to paths used by the gcc you used to bootstrap.  I don't see that g++ libraries which are built with gcc/g++ have a bearing on finding fenv.h.  If it's on a path which isn't inherited by icpc from your g++ you might expect to need to specify that path.

Use ... -print-search-dirs Display the directories in the compiler's search path ... to verify it and I usually use ... -B Add to the compiler's search paths ... when some path to a folder needs to be added.

This looks like a user error to me. I don't think we support the compilation of the headers using CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH only. Note that the icc compiler queries the gcc/g++ in the user's path to determine which headers to include. The example worked for me in the g++48 environment.

$ icpc -c test_fenv.cpp -M
test_fenv.o: test_fenv.cpp \
 /opt/intel/composer_xe_2013_sp1.1.106/compiler/include/fenv.h \

 /usr/include/fenv.h /usr/include/bits/fenv.h /usr/include/bits/wordsize.h \
 /usr/include/bits/fenvinline.h


Note that include/c++/4.8.1/fenv.h is included from our gcc48 installation.

Our suggestion is to put the desired version of gcc/g++ in the user's path and do not set CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH at all.

Hi,

The desired version of gcc/g++ IS in the user's path in this case :

[mboisson@r103-n3 ~]$ echo $PATH
/software6/apps/cmake/2.8.12/bin:/software6/apps/mercurial/2.7.2/bin:/software6/apps/git/1.8.4.1/bin:/software6/apps/flex/2.5.37/bin:/software6/apps/moab/moab/bin:/software6/mpi/openmpi/1.6.5_intel/bin:/software6/compilers/intel/composer_xe_2013_sp1/bin:/software6/compilers/gcc/4.8.1/bin:/software6/apps/bison/3.0/bin:/software6/apps/make/3.82/bin:/software6/apps/automake/1.14/bin:/software6/apps/autoconf/2.69/bin:/software6/apps/m4/1.4.17/bin:/clumeq/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/var/cfengine/bin:/clumeq/bin:/software6/centos6-extra/bin:/software6/centos6-extra/usr/bin:/home/mboisson/bin:/home/mboisson/Scripts:/clumeq/staff/torque-moab-tools:/home/mboisson/Scripts/torque-moab
[mboisson@r103-n3 ~]$ which g++
/software6/compilers/gcc/4.8.1/bin/g++
[mboisson@r103-n3 ~]$ which gcc
/software6/compilers/gcc/4.8.1/bin/gcc

Note also that g++ does compile this example fine without adding /usr/include to the environment paths.

It does seem however that adding neither /usr/include in the CPATH nor the c++/include folder the CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH work, for both the example and a C++11 code (I tested with <array>).

So it seems that not specifying paths works best, and setting CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH messes with the default behavior. Does this statement seem correct ?

You are right ,using CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH is not well supported in compilation of the headers.
