Hello Open MPI team,

I'm looking for the recommended way to produce a debug build of Open MPI v3.0.1 
that compiles with “-g -O0” so that I get accurate debug info under a debugger.

So far, I've gone through the following sequence.  I started with CFLAGS="-g 
-O0" on make:

shell$ ./configure --prefix=$installdir --disable-silent-rules \

  --disable-new-dtags --enable-mpi-cxx --enable-cxx-exceptions --with-pmi

shell$ make -j CFLAGS="-g -O0" VERBOSE=1

That led to the following error:

In file included from ../../../../opal/util/arch.h:26:0,

                 from btl_openib.h:43,

                 from btl_openib_component.c:79:

btl_openib_component.c: In function 'progress_pending_frags_wqe':

btl_openib_component.c:3351:29: error: 'opal_list_item_t' has no member named 
'opal_list_item_refcount'

             assert(0 == frag->opal_list_item_refcount);

                             ^

make[2]: *** [btl_openib_component.lo] Error 1

make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

make[2]: Leaving directory `.../openmpi-3.0.1/opal/mca/btl/openib'

So it seems the assert is referring to a field structure that is protected by a 
debug flag.  I then added --enable-debug to configure, which led to:

make[2]: Entering directory `.../openmpi-3.0.1/opal/tools/wrappers'

  CC       opal_wrapper.o

  GENERATE opal_wrapper.1

  CCLD     opal_wrapper

../../../opal/.libs/libopen-pal.so: undefined reference to `pthread_atfork'

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

make[2]: *** [opal_wrapper] Error 1

make[2]: Leaving directory `.../openmpi-3.0.1/opal/tools/wrappers'

Finally, if I also add LDFLAGS="-lpthread" to make, I get a build:

shell$ ./configure --prefix=$installdir --enable-debug --disable-silent-rules \

  --disable-new-dtags --enable-mpi-cxx --enable-cxx-exceptions --with-pmi

shell$ make -j CFLAGS="-g -O0" LDFLAGS="-lpthread" VERBOSE=1

Am I doing this correctly?

Is there a pointer to the configure/make flags for this?

I did find this page that describes the developer build from a git clone, but 
that seemed a bit overkill since I am looking for a debug build from the 
distribution tarball instead of the git clone (avoid the autotools nightmare):

Thanks.
