Given the following code
module test1 contains subroutine INLINE_ME(x,y) implicit none real, intent(in) :: x,y print*, x,y end subroutine INLINE_ME subroutine CALLER implicit none !dir$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE :: INLINE_ME call INLINE_ME(1.,1.) ! even when calling withing a module it does not work end subroutine end module program inline_test ! use test1 Enable this when using "inline_me" implicit none !!dir$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE :: INLINE_ME1 ! call inline_me1(1.,1.) ! DOES NOT WORK !!dir$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE :: INLINE_ME ! call inline_me(1.,1.) ! DOES NOT WORK (ERROR is multiple declarations of same name (inline_me) contains subroutine INLINE_ME1(x,y) implicit none real, intent(in) :: x,y print*, x,y end subroutine INLINE_ME1 end program
I am trying to understand why my inlining does not seem to work. I have tried three different scenarios
a) I call a subroutine from the same module as where the caller is. Example shown in module test1, where CALLER calls INLINE_ME. The error is : undefined reference toinline_me_'`
b) I call the same routine INLINE_ME but from a different place, in this case within the scope of program. Here I get an error saying The attributes of this name conflict with those made accessible by a USE statement
c) I call the routine INLINE_ME1 defined in the program. I get same error as in b)
I have tried to compile as ifort -ipo and without -ipo.

When the subroutine/functions visible to the compilation unit as above, place the forceinline at the declaration of the subroutine/function
! inline_me.f90 module test1 contains !dir$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE :: INLINE_ME subroutine INLINE_ME(x,y) implicit none real, intent(in) :: x,y print*, x,y end subroutine INLINE_ME !dir$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE :: CALLER subroutine CALLER implicit none call INLINE_ME(1.,1.) ! even when calling withing a module it does not work end subroutine end module program inline_test use test1 ! Enable this when using "inline_me" implicit none call inline_me1(1.,1.) ! DOES NOT WORK call inline_me(1.,1.) ! DOES NOT WORK (ERROR is multiple declarations of same name (inline_me) call CALLER contains !dir$ ATTRIBUTES FORCEINLINE :: INLINE_ME1 subroutine INLINE_ME1(x,y) implicit none real, intent(in) :: x,y print*, x,y end subroutine INLINE_ME1 end program inline_test
in the assembly listing below you can see that between:
MAIN__ PROC
and the end of the MAIN__ PROC (your program inline_test)
.B1.8:: ; Preds .B1.7
; Execution count [1.00e+000]
xor eax, eax ;40.3
add rsp, 240 ;40.3
pop r12 ;40.3
ret ;40.3
That there are no calls to INLINE_ME, INLINE_ME1, nor CALLER, but you do see the "call for_write_seq_lis_xmit" for each of the included (inlined) print statements.
Also following the end of the program inline_test, you will see the out-of-line callable subroutines (the module routines have the module name, and _mp_ pre-pended to the subroutine name and the internal (to program) INLINE_ME1 has been elided (removed).

Thanks for the reply Jim.
I am a bit confused now honestly. When shall we put the INLINE directive at the function definition and when to have it in front of the call?

After reviewing the code sample and documentation
You can use
!dir$ forceinline
call inline_me
Or use the !dir$ attributes forceinline :: procname, however it appears that the attribute variation can only be used with the subroutine/function declaration (or its interface declaration).
Sorry for the run around.

Ohhh. That was it. Cheers Jim !
Quick thing, I saw that the flag -ipo might be necessary when the routine is defined in a different module. Is that correct understood that -ipo must be enabled in compilation and linking if the compiler will have a chance to inline a routine defined in module A and being called from Module B.

The compiler can generate optimization diagnostic information. One of which is the Compiler Inline Report. You can use that to verify, or as a more proof of the pudding, use VTune to generate stats on the runtime, then open the routine and look at the Disassembly.
Keep in mind that depending on compiler optimization switches, that the code generated may have multiple-paths (e.g. one for SSE, one for AVX, etc...). The compiler may or may not inline depending on path taken (although forceinline should do the inline, as opposed to !dir$ inline being a "you would like it to inline if possible").
The VTune or Dissassembly/Assembly Listing is more of an absolute proof.

Thanks Jim, I have so far being using the optimisation report to check for inlining. I should probably learn to read assembly code better as you mentioned that this is the ultimate proof.
Thanks again for your help
