[lustre-discuss] compile lustre client for ARM64

[Liu, Zhengchun]

Thanks Richard!

We download lustre via git clone git://git.hpdd.intel.com/fs/lustre-release.git. We plan to try other versions if the pre-built client you suggested does not work.

The linux kernel is 4.14.0-49.el7a. We compile for a prototype system based on ThunderX2 ARM Processor.

Thanks
Zhengchun

Hi,

We recently try to compile lustre client for ARM64 arch,
with Mellanox OFED.

It gave “configure: error: can't compile with OpenIB gen2 headers
under “ error. when run

./configure --disable-server --enable-client --with-
linux=/usr/src/kernels --with-o2ib=/usr/src/ofa_kernel/default

We tried ofa_kernel 4.2 and 4.3 (for aarch64 from http://www.mellanox
.com/page/products_dyn?product_family=26&mtag=linux_sw_drivers) with
the latest lustre release.

Does anyone have any suggestions about the error?


Not directly - but chatting with James Simmons at LUG this year gave me
confidence that the client from Lustre Master compiled just fine. It
might be helpful to share which version of the client you're compiling
and on which platform and kernel.

As an alternative, OpenHPC provide an AArch64 pre-built Lustre client
(v2.8) for CentOS7:
http://build.openhpc.community/OpenHPC:/1.3/CentOS_7/aarch64/

best regards,
Richard
