Re: [DynInst_API:] building dyninst with intel-oneapi-tbb for TBB

[Tim Haines <thaines@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Mark.

This is something I put on a low-priority todo list a while ago. Since only the Argonne system is using OneAPI, I've not had any troubles with this (i.e., everyone else is still using plain TBB). However, I agree that TBB is being subsumed by OneAPI in an effort by Intel to unify all of their parallel programming support. I can take a look and see how much we need to modify the custom CMake modules to get it to work.

Thanks.

Subject: [DynInst_API:] building dyninst with intel-oneapi-tbb for TBB

 

Hi, what are y'all thoughts on building Dyninst with a TBB other than
intel-tbb, specifically intel-oneapi-tbb ?

Spack has three providers for the virtural tbb: intel-tbb,
intel-oneapi-tbb and the full intel-parallel-studio.  I get the sense
that intel-tbb is older, to be phased out in favor of intel-oneapi-tbb.
I tried this in spack and the build failed with:

$ spack install dyninst ^intel-oneapi-tbb

-- Searching for tbb...

   TBB not found and cannot be downloaded because build is sterile.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
   CMakeLists.txt:30 (include)

The directory layout is totally different with intel-oneapi-tbb, but
that might be the main or only issue.

So, do you want dyninst to be buildable with intel-oneapi-tbb?

Is it worth the effort?

Do you suspect any issues beyond directory layout?

You want me to file a issue?

Thanks,
