Performance API on mac 10.8 - osx-lion

Anyone tried to install papi(performance API) version 5.1.0 on the mac os 10.8 ? I am getting following errors on the make command.
zero_attach.c: In function ‘main’:
zero_attach.c:84: error: ‘PTRACE_ATTACH’ undeclared (first use in this function)
zero_attach.c:84: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
zero_attach.c:84: error: for each function it appears in.)
zero_attach.c:84: warning: passing argument 4 of ‘ptrace’ makes integer from pointer without a cast
zero_attach.c:117: error: ‘PTRACE_CONT’ undeclared (first use in this function)
The INSTALL.txt doesnt say anything on the mac os. Just says it can be installed no procedure given so i tried just the standard procedure mentioned.
On the main page of papi -> platform supported, it doesnt say about anything about mac os.
Do i need to install some drivers for this ? any help will be great..

I just installed the latest version of PAPI (5.3.0) on OS X v 10.9.1.
Following the instructions in the install file did the trick too!
wget http://icl.cs.utk.edu/projects/papi/downloads/papi-5.3.0.tar.gz
tar -xvf papi-5.3.0.tar.gz
cd papi-5.3.0/src
./configure
make
The only problem I encountered was with an undefined malloc.h, this is easily
fixed by either making a dummy malloc.h stub with
touch malloc.h
or copying a good malloc.h into the src directory
cp /System/Library/Frameworks/Kernel.framework/Versions/A/Headers/sys/malloc.h .
Then you should be fine with:
make
./run_tests.sh
make install
Happy performance counting!
p.s. I did this with gcc-4.7.3 (installed with homebrew).

error installing lang/perl5.30 on FreeBSD 12.0

Clean installation of FreeBSD 12.0 updated to last patch.
Trying to install Perl: portmaster lang/perl5.30
Error: malloc.c:1242:13: error: use of undeclared identifier 'my_perl
How to fix it?
Well I don't know how FreeBSD handles patching the source code its compiling, but perl-5.30.0 needs the following patch applied to build properly on systems which use perl's malloc() library:
v5.31.0-13-g9629b6dc1d
1.go to /usr/ports/lang/per5.30
2.run "make config" and deselect PERL_MALLOC option
3.now retry make install

Building Swift on CentOS

I am building Swift compiler from source on CentOS 6, and am running into a library issue. After fighting with the build script for a while I have got where running ./utils/build-script eventually gives:
+ /home/src/cmake-3.4.1-Linux-x86_64/bin/cmake --build /home/src/swift/build/Ninja-DebugAssert/cmark-linux-x86_64 -- all

/opt/gcc-4.8.2/lib64/libatomic.so.1
/opt/gcc-4.8.2/lib64/libatomic.so.1.0.0
I just don't know how to tell the build system where to look. I have tried the usual CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH (exporting on the command line - I am not sure if cmake works like the way LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LIBRARY_PATH work) but it can't seem to find it.
I also don't have root on the machine.
I had not tried building from source on CentOS 6 until I saw this question, but I have been able to build Swift 2.2 on CentOS 7.1 and Ubuntu 14.04, with partial success. A few things to think about:
You will need numerous dependencies required to build Swift, and unless
they happen to be already on the system, you will need root access to
install them.
Use -R flag with the build-script to create a release build.
Building in DebugAssert (the default) will require a lot of memory. In my case even 14 GB was not sufficient. A release build
can be done with about 6 GB.
As for your specific problem, it is related to Clang's dependency on GCC-related packages for headers and libraries. See, for example, Fedora 21 with clang, without gcc.
Even if you installed GCC 4.8.2 and adjusted the path to use gcc and g++ from 4.8.2, Clang may still be looking in the old GCC directories for headers and libraries. CMake first tries to compile a C++ test file that includes the header atomic, which does not exist in the old GCC. So, it then tries to link a C test program that uses the library libatomic, which again doesn't exist in the old GCC. You can see this by looking at llvm/cmake/modules/CheckAtomic.cmake mentioned by usr1234567. CMakeError.log and CMakeOutput.log can also provide valuable insight. BTW, when I was building Swift on CentOS 7.1, I didn't run into this problem because GCC 4.8.2 was used by Clang for headers and libraries and the atomic header was found, so the C++ file got compiled. However, had the libatomic check been done, it would have failed, because libatomic.so in the repository-provided 4.8.2 has INPUT ( <name of some non-existent file> ), so trying to link with libatomic errors out.
I'm sure there are various ways of dealing with this issue, but what solved the problem for me was setting the following environment variables, please adjust to your specific setup:
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/gcc-4.8.2/include/c++/4.8.2:/opt/gcc-4.8.2/include/c++/4.8.2/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
export LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gcc-4.8.2/lib64:/opt/gcc-4.8.2/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.8.2
Also make sure that your 4.8.2 version of libstdc++.so is available to the dynamic linker at runtime. Since you don't have root, do
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gcc-4.8.2/lib64
If you had root, you could use ldconfig.
Before you start building Swift, you may want to try building, using Clang, a simple C program linking it with libatomic (the code doesn't actually have to use any symbols from the lib) and a simple C++ program that includes the <atomic> header. When compiling the C++ program, use the -std=c++11 compiler flag. If the C++ program compiles successfully, then it is not necessary for the libatomic linking test to be successful.
Interestingly, the CMakeOutput.log file still did not report finding GCC 4.8.2 as a candidate GCC installation, but the configuration/build worked well past the error.
Hopefully this helps. Please let us know if you run into something else.
CheckAtomic.cmake seems to be part of LLVM. I found a file at Github and it tries to find '__atomic_fetch_add_4' from libatomic
check_library_exists(atomic __atomic_fetch_add_4 "" HAVE_LIBATOMIC)
This fails for you. Check CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log to get more details why this test failed. Or try this line in a new project.

portaudio on osx 10.11

I would like to install portaudio on OSX El Capitan 10.11.
I have downloaded the latest snapshot and tried to install, and I got something about frameworks not being available. I hacked the configure script to help xcodebuild find the framework for 10.11 and now I get: 1
src/hostapi/coreaudio/pa_mac_core_utilities.c:152:10: error: 'kAudioUnitErr_IllegalInstrument' is deprecated [-Werror,-Wdeprecated-declarations]

2 errors generated.
make: *** [src/hostapi/coreaudio/pa_mac_core_utilities.lo] Error 1
I now understand that is because carbon is no longer available in 10.11.
Is there any way around this, or any way to install the previous frameworks? Or should I be using something else. I want portaudio to work so that I can install playrec and get duplex audio on matlab on a mac.

installing libsvm on Mac (OSX 10.9.2)

I have tried to install the libsvm package with
mex -setup
(since "make" resulted in an error). This was followed by one choice for a compiler, so I chose "1".
Afterwards I typed in "make" got the following error though:
xcrun: error: SDK "macosx10.7" cannot be located
clang: warning: no such sysroot directory: '-mmacosx-version-min=10.7'
libsvmread.c:1:10: fatal error: 'stdio.h' file not found
#include <stdio.h>
^
1 error generated.
mex: compile of ' "libsvmread.c"' failed.
If make.m fails, please check README about detailed instructions.
What can I do?
I think the following answer from the matlab support might be helpful (http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/103904-can-i-use-xcode-5-as-my-c-or-c-compiler-in-matlab-8-1-r2013a-or-matlab-8-2-r2013b):
The Mac OS X 10.7 SDK, available in Xcode 4.1 through 4.6, is used by
MEX and related capabilities. This SDK is no longer available in Xcode
5, resulting in errors similar to the following when compiling:
xcodebuild: error: SDK "macosx10.7" cannot be located.
xcrun: error: unable to find utility "clang", not a developer tool or
in PATH
The simplest solution is to avoid updating Xcode to version 5 if you
are using R2013a or R2013b. If you need Xcode 5, or you have already
irreversibly upgraded to it, you can update MEX to use the 10.8 SDK:
In the MATLAB Command Window, execute the following commands:
cd(matlabroot)
cd bin
edit mexopts.sh
Save a backup copy of this file somewhere in case you make a mistake and you need to revert your changes.
Scroll down to the Mac (“maci64”) section of this file, beginning around line 120.
Replace all instances of 10.7 with 10.8; there are four of these in all (a fifth may be found in comments only)
Save the file, then execute the following command in the MATLAB Command Window:
mex -setup
Please note that this workaround links MEX files with a different SDK
than with which MATLAB was tested. Although there are no known
compatibility issues, support may be limited.

GCC 4.7 on OS X Lion: cannot compute suffix of object files

I know this issue already discussed (include there), and no one time. But, unfortunately, I cannot solve this problem.
So, I have OS X Lion, i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1, and I try to build gcc-4.7.0.
First of all, I've already built this compiler on Debian GNU/Linux, so I was sure any problems will not be...
So, I read this GCC manual and I did all exactly as described:
cd gcc-4.7.0
./contrib/download_prerequisites
cd ..
mkdir gcc_build
cd gcc_build
/Users/dshevchenko/Downloads/gcc-4.7.0/configure --prefix=/Users/dshevchenko/Tools/GCC
make
So, MPC, MPFR and GMP was successfully downloaded, and ./configure was OK. But after few minutes after make I get this error:
checking for suffix of object files... configure: error:
in `/Users/dshevchenko/Downloads/gcc_build/x86_64-apple-darwin11.4.0/libgcc':
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
See `config.log' for more details.
As I understand this can't be due error of dynamic linking with MPFR, MPC or GMP, because these libs was built inside of GCC source code tree.
In my ~/.bash_profile:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/dshevchenko/Tools/GCC/lib
Help me please, I'll be grateful for any advice.
Be sure you have the latest Xcode (4.4 at the time of this writing). There is a bug in the llvm compiler in some versions of Xcode (including 4.1, which I had). For Xcode 4.4, the command line tools must be downloaded from the Xcode preferences.
the follow solution helped me out:
$ export CC="gcc -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=0”
$ $srcdir/configure ...
$ make
