Issues in in finding dseupd_c in c++ file

[Enlil50]

When i try to use dsaupd_c and dseupd_c from arpack-ng in a c++ file, linking:

#include "arpack.h"
#include "arpackdef.h"

and linking these directories in the compilation process:

/arpack-ng/SRC
/arpack-ng/build
/arpack-ng/ICB

I get this error, just for dseupd_c:

OSError: ../file.so: undefined symbol: dseupd_c

If i use fortran, with a different program, it works fine. In that case i link this directory:

/arpack-ng/build/libarpackILP64.a

I assumed the issue was the lack of ISO_C_BINDING compilation. What i usually do to compile arpack is:

Inside the arpack-ng folder, create a dir called build and move inside that folder:

mkdir build
cd build

Set the installation:

cmake -D INTERFACE64=ON -D ITF64SUFFIX="ILP64" -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -D BLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64ilp ..

Build the libraries by running just:

make

and then install it by running:

sudo make install

We have installed the shared libraries, we are going to need the static library also, so execute the following commands:

cd ../
rm -r -f build
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D INTERFACE64=ON -D ITF64SUFFIX="ILP64" -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -D BLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64ilp ..
make
sudo make install

And it works

However in the arpack-ng i find: [reminder 1]

$ ./bootstrap
$ export FFLAGS='-DMKL_ILP64 -I/usr/include/mkl'
$ export FCFLAGS='-DMKL_ILP64 -I/usr/include/mkl'
$ export LIBS='-Wl,--no-as-needed -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core -lpthread -lm -ldl'
$ export INTERFACE64=1
$ ./configure --with-blas=mkl_gf_ilp64 --with-lapack=mkl_gf_ilp64
$ make all check

And it gives me an error i will attach at the end.

In particular, if i run ./configure it says:

configure: error: in `/arpack-ng':
configure: error: Fortran compiler cannot create executables

However when I use those compilers, they work.

If I run:

ifort --version

It says:

ifort (IFORT) 2021.11.0 20231010
Copyright (C) 1985-2023 Intel Corporation.  All rights reserved.

And if I run:

which ifort

It says:

/opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/2024.0/bin/ifort

All these compiler issue don't appear if I just go for the steps i wrote at the beginning and run the program.

I tried to write [reminder 1] outside the build file i already made:

When i try to use dsaupd_c and dseupd_c from arpack-ng

To use *_c, you need ICB: https://github.com/opencollab/arpack-ng#iso_c_binding-support.

Make sure you start from clean/empty directory, your env is correct (with intel: need to run sh script to set env before using compilers IIRC) and set ICB option at configure time.

If using MKL: https://github.com/opencollab/arpack-ng#using-mkl-instead-of-blas--lapack

[Enlil50]

I'm not really good at configuring etc (my second time. First one was just following blindfolded the instructions I wrote).

I will now redownload all the pack in a different directory and link that one.

What are the exact steps I need to do?

I see the 2 steps you wrote, but trying them lead to an issue and I don't know if it is related to having already installed and configured everything. Expecially for the fact that it says fortran compiler doesn't work.

Thanks for the hard work.

[fghoussen]

I'm not really good at configuring

Can't help from here...

What are the exact steps I need to do?

• Make sure your env is OK (compiler, SDK install). Start with gnu/clang compiler first (intel is more complex).
• If using MKL, make sure MKL is installed properly and follow exactly intel's doc to link. Start without MKL first (intel is more complex): MKL is a mess even for intel people: that's why they provide the intel advisor...

CI runs ICB with MKL: means CMake works. Problems are generally always caused by bad env. Can't help from here sorry

trying them lead to an issue and I don't know

No trace... No clue... Check logs

[Enlil50]

It's not an issue on configuring mkl and its enviroment, as it already works in both c++ and fortran programs.

These are the steps performed:

git clone https://github.com/opencollab/arpack-ng.git
cd ./arpack-ng

mkdir build
cd build

cmake -D ICB=ON -D INTERFACE64=ON -D ITF64SUFFIX="ILP64" -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -D BLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64ilp ..

make
sudo make install

This is my cmake:

# Home made C++ libraries
add_library(_quantum_Ising_mkl SHARED)
target_sources(_quantum_Ising_mkl PRIVATE
    ${executable_and_libraries}/src_homemade/quantum_Ising_mkl.cpp
)
target_link_libraries(_quantum_Ising_mkl PUBLIC
    "-L${MKLROOT}/lib -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core -lpthread -lm -ldl"
)

    ${MKLROOT}/include
)
set_target_properties(_quantum_Ising_mkl PROPERTIES
    COMPILE_FLAGS  "-DMKL_ILP64 -Ofast -march=native"
)

This is the result after running Cmakelist.txt

[100%] Built target _quantum_Ising_mkl

This is the error I get when calling the function (I call the C++ library I made (which calls dseupd) from a python file (this worked fine with every other library I wrote))

File "/usr/lib/python3.10/ctypes/__init__.py", line 374, in __init__
  self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode)
OSError: ../build/lib_quantum_Ising_mkl.so: undefined symbol: dseupd_c

That's the same issue.

In my C++ library I included:

#include "arpack.h"
#include "arpackdef.h"
#include "mkl_spblas.h"

I first call dsaupd:

dsaupd_c (&ido, Bmat, tot_Hilbert_elem, which_eval, nev, tol, v0, ncv,
        lancz_basis_matrix, ldv, iparam, ipntr, workd, workl, length_workl, &info );

Then call dseupd_c:

dseupd_c ( evec_compute_flag, howmny, select, eval_array, lancz_basis_matrix, ldv, sigma, 
Bmat, tot_Hilbert_elem, which_eval, nev, tol, v0, ncv, lancz_basis_matrix, ldv, 
iparam, ipntr, workd, workl, length_workl, &ierr);

It's quite funnny as now vsc no longer sees these function arguments as int64_t, but as int.
However if i rewrite them all as int and compile, it gives error, as they need int64_t.

If i leave them as int64_t it does not find dseupd_c, which is found by vsc (ctrl+left click) and is the second function I call.

[Enlil50]

I just found this inside arpack.h, following those passages, so surely it's a build issue

[sylvestre]

please don't share screenshoots, they are terrible for accessibility and search
thanks

[Enlil50]

Yes, you could be right. Then did I miss some libraries or directories to link in the cmakelist I wrote?

[fghoussen]

Very difficult to say / help from here...
Does the test suite runs OK: is make testOK ?
Which compiler/linker do you use?
What is your OS: unix? windows?

[fghoussen]

did I miss some libraries or directories to lin

Example here:

arpack-ng/cmake/tstCMakeInstall.sh.in

Line 72 in ba440d1

echo "add_executable(icb_arpack_c icb_arpack_c.c)" >> CMakeLists.txt

[Enlil50]

I would try this afternoon (7 hours ahead of now). Thanks. I use Linux. If I remember well the test gave same issue in the terminal when I compiled (not runned) with ICB. Is it supposed to happen? If not I would try all the steps again and paste the output

[fghoussen]

I use Linux.

Should work on Linux. I thought at an eventual link problem on Windows: AFAIK, ICB has not been tested on Windows

[Enlil50]

Following these steps:

    git clone https://github.com/opencollab/arpack-ng.git
    cd ./arpack-ng
    
    mkdir build
    cd build
    
    cmake -D ICB=ON -D INTERFACE64=ON -D ITF64SUFFIX="ILP64" -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -D BLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64ilp ..
    
    make
    sudo make install

This is the output of make:

Dunno if it's an issue, even though it's not about linked libraries, i still don't know if t's ok to run tests with it.

About cmakelist.txt, I included:

add_library(_quantum_Ising_mkl SHARED)
target_sources(_quantum_Ising_mkl PRIVATE
    ${executable_and_libraries}/src_homemade/quantum_Ising_mkl.cpp
)
target_link_libraries(_quantum_Ising_mkl PUBLIC
    "-L${MKLROOT}/lib -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core -lpthread -lm -ldl"
)
target_include_directories(_quantum_Ising_mkl PUBLIC
    ${executable_and_libraries}/arpack-ng/SRC
    ${executable_and_libraries}/arpack-ng/build
    ${executable_and_libraries}/arpack-ng/ICB
    ${MKLROOT}/include
)
set_target_properties(_quantum_Ising_mkl PROPERTIES
    COMPILE_FLAGS  "-DMKL_ILP64 -Ofast -march=native"
)

From the line you linked I see:

echo "target_include_directories(icb_arpack_c INTERFACE BLAS::BLAS)"     >> CMakeLists.txt
echo "target_link_libraries(icb_arpack_c BLAS::BLAS)"                    >> CMakeLists.txt
echo "target_include_directories(icb_arpack_c INTERFACE LAPACK::LAPACK)" >> CMakeLists.txt
echo "target_link_libraries(icb_arpack_c LAPACK::LAPACK)"                >> CMakeLists.txt
echo "target_include_directories(icb_arpack_c INTERFACE ARPACK::ARPACK)" >> CMakeLists.txt
echo "target_link_libraries(icb_arpack_c ARPACK::ARPACK)"                >> CMakeLists.txt          

If I try to paste stuff like that, i need to know where it is. It really reminds me on how i link on fortran:

add_executable(main_program_fortran)
target_sources(main_program_fortran PUBLIC
    ${executable_and_libraries}/bin/main_program_fortran.f90
)
target_link_libraries(main_program_fortran PUBLIC 

    ${executable_and_libraries}/src_external/arpack-ng/build/libarpackILP64.a
    ${executable_and_libraries}/src_external/mkl_spblas.o
    ${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64/libmkl_blas95_ilp64.a
    ${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64/libmkl_lapack95_ilp64.a
    "-Wl,--start-group ${MKLROOT}/lib/libmkl_intel_ilp64.a ${MKLROOT}/lib/libmkl_sequential.a ${MKLROOT}/lib/libmkl_core.a -Wl,--end-group -lpthread -lm -ldl")
target_include_directories(main_program_fortran PUBLIC
    ${MKLROOT}/include/mkl/intel64/ilp64
    ${MKLROOT}/include
)
set_target_properties(main_program_fortran PROPERTIES
    COMPILE_FLAGS "-Ofast -i8 -r8 -static"
)

However, links are differents for dynamic libraries in mkl (even though that's not an issue of mkl)
What I see is that you link ARPACK::ARPACK, but I don't know where it is and that's probably what I'm missing.

In fortran I was building static libraries too, such as:

/arpack-ng/build/libarpackILP64.a

So, if I try:

cd ../
rm -r -f build
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -D ICB=ON -D INTERFACE64=ON -D ITF64SUFFIX="ILP64" -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -D BLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64ilp ..
make
sudo make install

It says:

No time to analyse this.

My advice: you seem to mix everything (ICB + ILP64 + python + icc/ifort), stop it! Start simple and minimal: gcc + ICB? Is it enough/OK (is ILP64 really needed)? If yes add what you need on top of it (each added feature will come with a price/complexity...)

Keep things simple as most as possible:

target_link_libraries(_quantum_Ising_mkl PUBLIC
"-L${MKLROOT}/lib -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core -lpthread -lm -ldl"
)
target_include_directories(_quantum_Ising_mkl PUBLIC
${executable_and_libraries}/arpack-ng/SRC
${executable_and_libraries}/arpack-ng/build
${executable_and_libraries}/arpack-ng/ICB
${MKLROOT}/include
)

is overkill, as this

target_include_directories(icb_arpack_c INTERFACE ARPACK::ARPACK)
target_link_libraries(icb_arpack_c ARPACK::ARPACK)

Should be enough: this is the minimum you need. If all is OK, BLAS::BLAS and LAPACK::LAPACK will point to the correct implementation (MKL or any other one). Do not set thing "by hand" unless you really need to set things manually (and then you generally need to set everything by hand). So, don't do that?!

target_link_libraries(main_program_fortran PUBLIC
${executable_and_libraries}/src_external/arpack-ng/build/libarpackILP64.a
${executable_and_libraries}/src_external/mkl_spblas.o
${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64/libmkl_blas95_ilp64.a
${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64/libmkl_lapack95_ilp64.a
"-Wl,--start-group ${MKLROOT}/lib/libmkl_intel_ilp64.a ${MKLROOT}/lib/libmkl_sequential.a ${MKLROOT}/lib/libmkl_core.a -Wl,--end-group -lpthread -lm -ldl")
target_include_directories(main_program_fortran PUBLIC
${MKLROOT}/include/mkl/intel64/ilp64
${MKLROOT}/include
)

There is no chance this could work... Pass this flags to LDFLAGS and friends if, and only if, the intel link advisor tells you to do so.

I recommend not using MKL for a start. If this is really necessary, using MKL: https://github.com/opencollab/arpack-ng#using-mkl-instead-of-blas--lapack

• Either BLA_VENDOR=Intel10_64lp is OK and you are fine: don't "set" anything manually
• Or, then, you'll have to "set" everything manually (= drop BLA_VENDOR - do NOT mix "manual" with "automatic" settings as you'll have 100% to get something that has no chance to work - go one way OR the other): use the "intel link advisor" following

  arpack-ng/.github/workflows/jobs.yml

  Line 162 in ba440d1

  LIBS: "-Wl,--no-as-needed -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lmkl_sequential -lmkl_core -lpthread -lm -ldl"

  that you'll need to adapt (in the CI, we use MKL to test ILP64 purposely as it is the only BLAS/LAPACK lib that comes with ILP64 flavour and available in open-source - drop ILP64 if you don't need it)

Do ONLY minimal changes and settings: it should work. Start simple. don't mix manual/automatic settings. Add complexity only if needed.

The test suite should work: don't go further until it doesn't.

Can't afford spending more time on that sorry.

Ok, so in the end I just needed to add this library.:

  /arpack-ng/build/lib/libarpackILP64.so

It seems developers didn't spot it. I went through all automatically generated makefiles to find this piece was missing
