Hello Mike,

I'm still working on getting you my config.log, but I thought I would chime in about that line 36. In my case, that code path is not executed because with_mxm is empty (I don't use --with-mxm on the configure line since libmxm.so is in system space and configure picks up on it automatically). Thus, ompi_check_mxm_libdir never gets assigned which results in just "-L" getting used on line 41. The same behavior could be found by using '--with-mxm=yes'.

Thanks,
David

Thanks Jeff!

but in this line:

https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/blob/master/config/ompi_check_mxm.m4#L36

ompi_check_mxm_libdir gets value if with_mxm was passed

    doesn't check to see if $ompi_check_mxm_libdir is empty.

    If there is, I'll share it with our admins and try to get the
    install location corrected.

    Line 246117 in the configure script provided by the
    openmpi-1.8.5.tar.bz2 tarball has this:
    >
    > ompi_check_mxm_extra_libs="-L$ompi_check_mxm_libdir"

    > By invoking configure with '/bin/sh -x ./configure ...' and
    changing PS4 to output line numbers, I saw that line 246117 was
    setting ompi_check_mxm_extra_libs to just "-L". It turns out that
    configure does this in three separate locations. I put a check
    around all three instances like this:
    >
    > if test ! -z "$ompi_check_mxm_extra_libs"; then
    >  ompi_check_mxm_extra_libs="-L$ompi_check_mxm_libdir"

    make completed fine.

    Which one would be the better one for me to pursue?
