Problem building Magma 1.1.0

[fletchjp]

I have a problem building Magma 1.1.0 with the makefile which runs with Magma 1.0.0.

The error is like this:

Code: Select all

gcc -O3 -DADD_ -DGPUSHMEM=200 -I/usr/local/cuda/include -I../include -I../quark/include -c auxiliary.cpp -o auxiliary.o
In file included from auxiliary.cpp:9:
common_magma.h:106: error: 'cublasStatus_t' does not name a type
common_magma.h:107: error: 'cublasStatus_t' does not name a type

The code causing the problem in common_magma.h is new in version 1.1.0 as follows

Code: Select all

/** ****************************************************************************
 *  Define magma streams
 */

extern cudaStream_t magma_stream;

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

cublasStatus_t magmablasSetKernelStream( cudaStream_t stream );
cublasStatus_t magmablasGetKernelStream( cudaStream_t *stream );

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

My version of cublas.h defines cublasStatus and not cublasStatus_t. Is this a question of a change of version of cuda or is this a typo?

Thanks

I have put this into common_magma.h and it has built down to a different error (with zdotc) which I will report in another thread.

Code: Select all

#define cublasStatus_t cublasStatus

I hope this helps.

I too have same above issue while building magma 1.1.0 ? Any error free solution available?

What version of CUDA are you using? Version 4.0 and 4.1 both define cublasStatus_t in the cublas.h. If you can't upgrade, a work around is to define it as John suggests.
