* upcxx: Update the UPC++ package to 2021.9.0 * Add the new release, and a missing older one. * Remove the spack package cruft for supporting the obsolete build system that was present in older versions that are no longer supported. * General cleanups. Support for library versions older than 2020.3.0 is officially retired, for two reasons: 1. Releases prior to 2020.3.0 had a required dependency on Python 2, which is [officially EOL](https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/) as of Jan 1 2020, and is no longer considered secure. 2. (Most importantly) The UPC++ development team is unable/unwilling to support releases more than two years old. UPC++ provides robust backwards-compatibility to earlier releases of UPC++ v1.0, with very rare well-documented/well-motivated exceptions. Users are strongly encouraged to update to a current version of UPC++. NOTE: Most of the lines changed in this commit are simply re-indentation, and thus might be best reviewed in a diff that ignores whitespace. * upcxx: Detect Cray XC more explicitly This change is necessary to prevent false matches occuring on new Cray Shasta systems, which do not use the aries network but were incorrectly being treated as a Cray XC + aries platform. UPC++ has not yet deployed official native support for Cray Shasta, but this change is sufficient to allow building the portable backends there. |

Spack
Spack is a multi-platform package manager that builds and installs multiple versions and configurations of software. It works on Linux, macOS, and many supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a new version of a package does not break existing installations, so many configurations of the same package can coexist.
Spack offers a simple "spec" syntax that allows users to specify versions and configuration options. Package files are written in pure Python, and specs allow package authors to write a single script for many different builds of the same package. With Spack, you can build your software all the ways you want to.
See the Feature Overview for examples and highlights.
To install spack and your first package, make sure you have Python. Then:
$ git clone -c feature.manyFiles=true https://github.com/spack/spack.git
$ cd spack/bin
$ ./spack install zlib
Documentation
Full documentation is available, or
run spack help or spack help --all.
For a cheat sheet on Spack syntax, run spack help --spec.
Tutorial
We maintain a hands-on tutorial. It covers basic to advanced usage, packaging, developer features, and large HPC deployments. You can do all of the exercises on your own laptop using a Docker container.
Feel free to use these materials to teach users at your organization about Spack.
Community
Spack is an open source project. Questions, discussion, and contributions are welcome. Contributions can be anything from new packages to bugfixes, documentation, or even new core features.
Resources:
- Slack workspace: spackpm.slack.com. To get an invitation, visit slack.spack.io.
- Mailing list: groups.google.com/d/forum/spack
- Twitter: @spackpm. Be sure to
@mentionus!
Contributing
Contributing to Spack is relatively easy. Just send us a
pull request.
When you send your request, make develop the destination branch on the
Spack repository.
Your PR must pass Spack's unit tests and documentation tests, and must be PEP 8 compliant. We enforce these guidelines with our CI process. To run these tests locally, and for helpful tips on git, see our Contribution Guide.
Spack's develop branch has the latest contributions. Pull requests
should target develop, and users who want the latest package versions,
features, etc. can use develop.
Releases
For multi-user site deployments or other use cases that need very stable software installations, we recommend using Spack's stable releases.
Each Spack release series also has a corresponding branch, e.g.
releases/v0.14 has 0.14.x versions of Spack, and releases/v0.13 has
0.13.x versions. We backport important bug fixes to these branches but
we do not advance the package versions or make other changes that would
change the way Spack concretizes dependencies within a release branch.
So, you can base your Spack deployment on a release branch and git pull
to get fixes, without the package churn that comes with develop.
The latest release is always available with the releases/latest tag.
See the docs on releases for more details.
