Hi Tim,
Well, in general and not on MIC I usually build the MPI stacks using the Intel compiler set. Have you ran into s/w that requires GCC instead of Intel compilers (beside Nvidia Cuda)? Did you try to use Intel compiler to produce MIC native code (the OpenMPI stack for that matter)? regards Michael On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 4:30 PM, Tim Carlson <tim.carl...@pnl.gov> wrote: > On Mon, 8 Jul 2013, Elken, Tom wrote: > > It isn't quite so easy. > > Out of the box, there is no gcc on the Phi card.
