Unfortunately, I spoke too soon. There was a bug in my .spec file which means ILP64 wasn't actually used. When I really enable it, I get build failures related to LAPACK functions, which aren't correctly added the 64_ suffix. For example:
$ strings /lib64/libopenblasp64_.so.0 | grep dgeqp3
dgeqp3_
LAPACKE_dgeqp364_
LAPACKE_dgeqp3_work64_
LAPACKE_dgeqp3
LAPACKE_dgeqp3_work

while Julia expects the first result should be dgeqp3_64.

I guess this means we also need a suffixed variant of lapack, right?

That's my assumption and why I filed bug #1295965

Would switching to the bundled lapack code fix this?  This is allowed now.  Just note Provides: bundled(lapack).

AFAIK it would, as that's why Julia upstream is using. Indeed it might be simpler for everybody. Anyway LAPACK is statically linked so there's no real point in using the libs from the lapack package.

(Oh, and would would also mean we wouldn't need to update RHEL's LAPACK to 3.5 or 3.6.)

... not to mention allowing to fix (i.e. circumvent) bug #1176025 and bug #1176026.

Updated spec

* Fri Jan 08 2016 Orion Poplawski <orion.com> - 0.2.15-3
- Allow conditional build with or without system lapack

How does this seem?

If it builds, it's probably fine.

Fine with me too.

Although it should be %bcond_with instead of %bcond_without.

Right, I figured I'd start with a drop in replacement for the current package and change to %bcond_without where appropriate (everywhere?).

Orion: why do you set NO_LAPACK only when lapacke == 0? AFAICT this means that the ILP64 LAPACK interface is never built on Fedora, which defeats the whole goal. Anyway, OpenBLAS includes LAPACKE, so we can set NO_LAPACK=1 everywhere.

I think this explains why I'm getting crashes when using the Fedora ILP64 OpenBLAS that I'm not seeing with Julia's. I'm currently building a modified package to check this.

My reading of the makefile is that it only tests for setting NO_LAPACK, not the value, so that NO_LAPACK=1 and NO_LAPACK=0 have the same effect.  But I may made a mistake or there may be some other issue.

Ah, sorry, I confused NO_LAPACK with NO_LAPACKE. So it looks OK indeed.

I really don't know what's causing the Fedora ILP64 OpenBLAS 0.2.15-5 not to work correctly . It fails both with Julia and with ARPACK. I have a very simple test case in Julia:
$ LD_PRELOAD=/lib64/libopenblas64_.so.0 ./julia 
julia> n = 10
       elty = Float32
       A = triu(rand(elty,n,n))
       x = rand(elty,n)
       A\x
ERROR: Base.LinAlg.LAPACKException(140144782868480)
 in chklapackerror at linalg/lapack.jl:38

 [inlined code] from linalg/triangular.jl:396
 in \ at linalg/generic.jl:364
 in eval at ./boot.jl:265

The very high value of the error code seems to indicate a size mismatch to me.

Any ideas?

I've tried enabling the tests in a build, and they fail. Maybe not related, though:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/6675/12586675/build.log

(Note that I've only enabled the 64-bit serial builds.)

Actually, the crashes I saw locally also appear when running the Julia tests:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/1902/12701902/build.log

I guess segfaults can indicate either a 32/64 bits mix, or a compilation issue (flags/compiler not tested by upstream).

But this is not an OpenBLAS bug. Look at root.log:

DEBUG util.py:399:   atlas                    x86_64  3.10.2-11.fc24                   build  6.0 M

You seem to be mixing libraries, which will of course give you unpredictable behavior.

It's also very odd you don't install any of the -devel packages.

Well, the whole point of adding a suffix was to avoid conflicts between libraries, so I'm not sure why this would cause crashes. Though of course I agree that atlas shouldn't be installed (it's a dependency of SuiteSparse currently).

> It's also very odd you don't install any of the -devel packages.
Actually, I don't need them since Julia loads OpenBLAS dynamically, using the full SONAME. Else, it would have failed with another error.


That said, I now see the failure is logical since Julia expects SuiteSparse and ARPACK to use the same integer size as BLAS. So I'll retry when these will have been moved to ILP64 too. (Some of the errors I reported above seem harder to explain, though, but I'll confirm that later.)
