IBM XL Fortran Advanced Edition V10.1 for Linux now supports Power5+ architecture

Transcription

1 Software Announcement December 6, 2005 IBM now supports Power5+ architecture Overview IBM XL Fortran is a standards-based, highly optimized compiler. With IBM XL Fortran technology, you have a powerful development environment to build Fortran applications. XL Fortran Advanced Edition V10.1 for fully supports OpenMP API V2.5 and is fully compliant with FORTRAN 77, Fortran 90, and Fortran 95 standards. It also continues additional support for the Fortran 2003 standard. XL Fortran supports both IBM and industry extensions as well. XL Fortran Advanced Edition V10.1 for is a highly optimizing, native Fortran compiler designed to exploit the IBM RS/6000, pseries, and System p5 hardware. In addition to the exploitation of POWER5, POWER4, and BladeCenter JS20 with PowerPC 970 architecture, XL Fortran V10.1 adds exploitation to the newly-available POWER5+ architecture. With V10.1 of XL Fortran Advanced Edition for, it provides a VECTOR data type and Vector Multimedia Extension (VMX) intrinsic functions to support direct AltiVec programming. XL Fortran also enhances the ability to automatically enable SIMD vectorization at higher levels of optimization. The VMX support is available for SLES9 and RHEL4 running on hardware that supports VMX. XL Fortran for includes highly tuned mathematical functions through high-performance libraries that can help improve the performance of mathematically-intensive applications. In V10.1, it supports Mathematical Acceleration Subsystem (MASS) scalar libraries and subset of vector libraries. Key prerequisites Operating system: A supported distribution: Red Hat Enterprise AS 4 Update 2 for IBM POWER SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 Service Pack 2 for IBM POWER Hardware: One of following system that is supported by your distribution: IBM OpenPower system IBM PowerPC system IBM BladeCenter JS20 system IBM pseries system IBM System p5 IBM i5 system IBM iseries system Required hard disk space: Approximately 200 MB for product packages At least 2 GB for paging At least 512 MB for temporary files (Note: High levels of optimization may require more space for paging and temporary files.) At a glance IBM XL Fortran Advanced Edition V10.1 for includes: Full support of OpenMP API V2.5 Full support of FORTRAN 77, Fortran 90, and Fortran 95 standards Additional support of the Fortran 2003 standard POWER5+, POWER5, POWER4, PowerPC 970 (BladeCenter JS20) architecture exploitation New compiler directives and options Mathematical Acceleration SubSystem (MASS) libraries enhancement Support enhancement of Vector Multimedia Extension (VMX) For ordering, contact: Your IBM representative, an IBM Business Partner, or the Americas Call Centers at 800-IBM-CALL Reference: RE001 Planned availability dates December 9, 2005: Electronic delivery January 6, 2006: Physical delivery This announcement is provided for your information only.

2 FORTRAN 77, Fortran 90, Fortran 95 and Fortran 2003 standards is a compiler that complies with FORTRAN 77, Fortran 90, and Fortran 95 standards. It continues adding support for additional Fortran 2003 standard features. It also supports IBM and common industry extensions from various compiler vendors. OpenMP API V2.5 The OpenMP API supports multi-platform shared-memory parallel programming in C/C++ and Fortran on all architectures, including UNIX platforms and Windows NT platforms. Jointly defined by a group of major computer hardware and software vendors, OpenMP is a portable, scalable model that gives shared-memory parallel programmers a simple and flexible interface for developing parallel applications for platforms ranging from the desktop to the supercomputer. provides full support for the OpenMP API V2.5. For more information on the OpenMP API V2.5, visit Industry-leading optimization technology XL Fortran Advanced Edition V9.1 for includes industry-leading optimization technology. Through compiler options and directives, programmers are offered a of ways to optimize their code. A range of optimization levels (-O2, -O3, -O4, and -O5) allow you to perform from comprehensive low-level optimization to more extensive whole-program optimization. Other compiler options for optimization: -qarch and -qtune instructs the compiler to generate code for a specific architecture. -qhot allows for high-order transformations that specifically improve performance of loops. -qipa invokes interprocedural analysis (IPA) and enables the compiler to optimize across different files (whole-program analysis). This can result in significant performance improvements. -qpdf tunes optimizations through profile-directed feedback (PDF); results from sample program execution on train data sets are used to fine tune optimizations in conditional branches and frequently executed code sections. -qshowpdf option, which is used together with -qpdf1 option, provides additional information to an executable so that PDF record can be displayed by the showpdf tool. Optimization utilities showpdf and mergepdf are used to view and manipulate information gathered by PDF (-qpdf1/-qpdf2) to enhance PDF-directed compilation. Mathematical Acceleration Subsystem (MASS) library MASS provides libraries of high-performance scalar and vector functions to perform common mathematical computations. In V10.1 of XL Fortran for, it introduces new scalar and vector functions, and new support for the POWER5 processor architecture. Basic Linear Algebra Subsystem (BLAS) library The BLAS functions are highly tuned algebraic functions that you can use to compute the matrix-vector product for a general matrix or its transpose, and perform combined matrix multiplication and addition for general matrices or their transposes. Vector Multimedia Extension (VMX) support provides a VECTOR data type and VMX intrinsic functions to support direct AltiVec programming. Objects compiled with VECTOR data types and related operations can run on systems with processor architectures and operating systems that support the SIMD (single instruction, multiple data) instruction set. The compiler also automatically enables SIMD vectorization at higher levels of optimization. The VMX support is available for SLES9 and RHEL4 running on hardware that supports VMX. Port or migration support provides full Fortran language standards compliance. The xlf, f77, and fort77 commands enable maximum compatibility with existing FORTRAN 77 programs. The default options provided with the xlf90 command give access to the full range of Fortran 90 language features. Similarly, the default options provided with the xlf95 command, give access to the full range of Fortran 95 language features. In addition, includes a comprehensive set of language extensions (such as intrinsic functions, data types) enabling ease of porting from other platforms and many different kind of compiler vendors as well. Several options, including -qport, are offered to minimize your porting effort. Runtime environment has a runtime environment to support library modules and I/O services and utilities. The XL Fortran runtime environment includes both single-threaded and multi-threaded versions to maximize the performance available to both types of applications. Various aspects of the XL Fortran runtime including I/O characteristics, error reporting, and obsolete language feature support, can be controlled using environment variables. Symbolic debugger support Use gdb or other symbolic debuggers for your programs.
