compiling getm with mpich2 and ifort

[Karsten Lettmann]

Dear all,

I Installed mpich2 on my quadcore withe gforker as process manager
andthe shared memory option.

I try to compile getm with the mpich2 library and the intel ifort compiler.

At the linking step I got the error message:

/home/karsten/software/MPI_library/MPICH2/mpich2_gforker_ifort/lib/libmpich.a(ch3_init.o):
In function `MPIDI_CH3_Init':
ch3_init.c:(.text+0x7f8): undefined reference to `shm_unlink'
/home/karsten/software/MPI_library/MPICH2/mpich2_gforker_ifort/lib/libmpich.a(shm_memory.o):
In function `MPIDI_CH3I_SHM_Get_mem':
shm_memory.c:(.text+0x68): undefined reference to `shm_open'

Does anyone have an idea, what might be wrong?
Or has anybody seen this error message before?

Help is welcome.

Cheers, Karsten L.

Have you tried to compile something smaller than GETM? Any MPI-test programs?

I have no experience with gforker, and it doesn't look like a GETM issue(?)

Run whatever test suite, which comes with mpich2/gforker. Is there a
particular reason to use gforker?

Did you compile mpich2+gforker with ifort?
