.. Note::
The architecture can be specified by using the reserved
words ``target`` and/or ``os`` (``target=x86-64 os=debian7``). You can also
use the triplet form of platform, operating system and processor.
Architecture specifiers are part of specs but are not yet

The architecture specifier looks identical to a variant specifier for a
non-boolean variant. The architecture can be specified only using the
reserved name ``arch`` (``arch=bgq_os``).
Users on non-Cray systems won't have to worry about specifying the architecture.
Spack will autodetect what kind of operating system is on your machine as well
as the processor. For more information on how the architecture can be
used on Cray machines, check here :ref:`spack-cray`

Spack on Cray
-----------------------------
Spack differs slightly when used on a Cray system. The architecture spec
can differentiate between the front-end and back-end processor and operating system.
For example, on Edison at NERSC, the back-end target processor
is \"Ivy Bridge\", so you can specify to use the back-end this way:
.. code-block:: sh
spack install zlib target=ivybridge
You can also use the operating system to build against the back-end:
.. code-block:: sh
spack install zlib os=CNL10
Notice that the name includes both the operating system name and the major
version number concatenated together.
Alternatively, if you want to build something for the front-end,
you can specify the front-end target processor. The processor for a login node
on Edison is \"Sandy bridge\" so we specify on the command line like so:
.. code-block:: sh
spack install zlib target=sandybridge
And the front-end operating system is:
.. code-block:: sh
spack install zlib os=SuSE11
Cray compiler detection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Spack can detect compilers using two methods. For the front-end, we treat
everything the same. The difference lies in back-end compiler detection.
Back-end compiler detection is made via the Tcl module avail command.
Once it detects the compiler it writes the appropriate PrgEnv and compiler
module name to compilers.yaml and sets the paths to each compiler with Cray\'s
compiler wrapper names (i.e. cc, CC, ftn). During build time, Spack will load
the correct PrgEnv and compiler module and will call appropriate wrapper.
The compilers.yaml config file will also differ. There is a
modules section that is filled with the compiler\'s Programming Environment
and module name. On other systems, this field is empty []::
...
- compiler:
modules:
- PrgEnv-intel
- intel/15.0.109
...
As mentioned earlier, the compiler paths will look different on a Cray system.
Since most compilers are invoked using cc, CC and ftn, the paths for each
compiler are replaced with their respective Cray compiler wrapper names::
...
paths:
cc: cc
cxx: CC
f77: ftn
fc: ftn
...
As opposed to an explicit path to the compiler executable. This allows Spack
to call the Cray compiler wrappers during build time.
For more on compiler configuration, check out :ref:`compiler-config`.
Setting defaults and using Cray modules
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you want to use default compilers for each PrgEnv and also be able
to load cray external modules, you will need to set up a packages.yaml.
Here\'s an example of an external configuration for cray modules:
.. code-block:: yaml
packages:
mpi:
modules:
mpich@7.3.1%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-haswell-CNL10: cray-mpich
mpich@7.3.1%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-haswell-CNL10: cray-mpich
This tells Spack that for whatever package that depends on mpi, load the
cray-mpich module into the environment. You can then be able to use whatever
environment variables, libraries, etc, that are brought into the environment
via module load.
You can set the default compiler that Spack can use for each compiler type.
If you want to use the Cray defaults, then set them under *all:* in packages.yaml.
In the compiler field, set the compiler specs in your order of preference.
Whenever you build with that compiler type, Spack will concretize to that version.
Here is an example of a full packages.yaml used at NERSC
.. code-block:: yaml
packages:
mpi:
modules:
mpich@7.3.1%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge: cray-mpich
mpich@7.3.1%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-SuSE11-ivybridge: cray-mpich
buildable: False
netcdf:
modules:
netcdf@4.3.3.1%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge: cray-netcdf
netcdf@4.3.3.1%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge: cray-netcdf
buildable: False
hdf5:
modules:
hdf5@1.8.14%gcc@5.2.0 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge: cray-hdf5
hdf5@1.8.14%intel@16.0.0.109 arch=cray_xc-CNL10-ivybridge: cray-hdf5
buildable: False
all:
compiler: [gcc@5.2.0, intel@16.0.0.109]
Here we tell spack that whenever we want to build with gcc use version 5.2.0 or
if we want to build with intel compilers, use version 16.0.0.109. We add a spec
for each compiler type for each cray modules. This ensures that for each
compiler on our system we can use that external module.
For more on external packages check out the section :ref:`sec-external_packages`.
