icc support. Linking stage "file format not recognized"

icc Intel compiler linking file format not recognized

Hi,

   I am trying to get running with the ATI Stream SDK 2.1 to compile a basic OpenCL application after working with OpenCL for a while on my Mac using Apple's implementation.

I am on a linux cluster running SUSE 10.  I have the Intel icc version 11.0.  When attempting to run make on the SDK sample applications, I get a linker error referencing the libOpenCL.so library, "File Format Not Recognized".  ( I did have to manually update openclsdkdefs.mk to define CC and LD as icc.)

I saw an earlier similar post indicating that maybe a bug had to be fixed before icc would be supported.  But this was before the SDK 2.1 release and the release notes indicate icc 11.x is supported.

I believe I followed the install instructions perfectly with exception for not being done with root access.  I don't see why that's necessary.

Does anyone have any ideas for steps I can try?   Has anyone been able to get the SDK working with icc for OpenCL work?

Thanks.

 

(btw, I get the same error message when I link using gcc, but I have gcc 4.1.2, so I assume that is not new enough and is reason for the error in this case)

Did you try running the pre-built libraries coming with the SDK? What is the behavior? 

Could you do an ldd on your libOpenCL.so and post?

Secondly, you are using SUSE 10, which is an old and unsupported Linux flavor. This could also create issues.

I have attached the results of running ldd and also trying to execute the different versions of CLInfo binaries.  I have problems there too, but I suspect something different.   What could be causing the floating point exception?

Overnight I built gcc4.3.5.  When attempting to compile using gcc 4.3.5 I get the exact same "libOpenCL.so: file not recognized: File format not recognized" error.

I am wondering if the same version of ld is being used no matter whether I am using gcc 4.1, gcc 4.3, or icc 11.0?

When I do ld --version I get this output:

GNU ld version 2.16.91.0.5 20051219 (SUSE Linux)

I still haven't figured this one out.  After trying to compile with gcc4.3.5 and icc 11.0 I get the same File format not recognized error from ld.

Does anyone know how to use a different ld? Or if my version 2.16 is sufficient?
