how to install MAGMA? I `make install` is run well, but `make test` cause error

I want to install MAGMA in a server(centos) in order to use the GEMM function.

I have installed CUDA and MKL in this server before i install MAGMA, and i check both is run well by runing a cuBLAS example program and a MKL example program.

Before i describe what i haved happened i must point it seem that there is no fortran in this server. So i install MAGMA by follows:

  1. I move make.inc-examples/make.inc.mkl-gcc to ../make.inc
  2. I modify make.inc:

I commented out:

  • FORT = gfortran
  • FFLAGS = -O3 $(FPIC) -DNDEBUG -DADD_ -Wall -Wno-unused-dummy-argument
  • F90FLAGS = -O3 $(FPIC) -DNDEBUG -DADD_ -Wall -Wno-unused-dummy-argument -x f95-cpp-input

and remove -lgfortran in

  • LIB = -lmkl_gf_lp64 -lmkl_gnu_thread -lmkl_core -lpthread -lstdc++ -lm -lgfortran

and i also set MKLROOT=/home/lixin/intel/mkl and CUDADIR=/usr/local/cuda in this file.

  1. I run make install prefix=/home/lixin/install/, it seem well and i haven't see any error tag.
  2. I run make test, it cause error soon: enter image description here
