Examples of Linking a C Application

These examples illustrate linking of an application for Intel MIC Architecture under the following conditions:

• The application uses Intel MKL ScaLAPACK or Cluster FFT.
• Main module is in C.
• You are using the Intel® C++ Compiler.
• Your programming interface is LP64.
• <path to mpi binaries> is the path to Intel MPI binaries for Intel MIC Architecture.
• $MKLPATH is a user-defined variable that contains $MKLROOT/lib/intel64_lin_mic

See the Intel MKL Release Notes for details of system requirements.

To link with ScaLAPACK for native runs on a cluster of systems based on the Intel MIC architecture, use the following link line:

<path to mpi binaries>/mpicc -mmic <files to link> \
-L$MKLPATH \
-lmkl_scalapack_lp64 \
-lmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64 \
-lmkl_intel_lp64 -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core \
-liomp5 -lpthread -lm

To link with Cluster FFT for native runs on a cluster of systems based on the Intel MIC architecture, use the following link line:

<path to mpi binaries>/mpicc -mmic <files to link> \
-Wl,--start-group \
$MKLPATH/libmkl_cdft_core.a \
$MKLPATH/libmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64.a \
$MKLPATH/libmkl_intel_lp64.a \
$MKLPATH/libmkl_intel_thread.a \
$MKLPATH/libmkl_core.a \
-Wl,--end-group \
-liomp5 -lpthread -lm
