This compiler continues to add further support for the Fortran 2003 standard. XL Fortran also supports both IBM and industry extensions. is a highly optimizing, native Fortran compiler designed to exploit the IBM Power Systems servers, including the IBM BladeCenter JS22 with POWER6 processor technology. The XL Fortran compiler also supports the POWER4 and POWER5 architectures on IBM i with the Portable Application Solutions Environment (IBM i PASE). What's new in, V12.1: Delivers selected features of OpenMP API V3.0 for enhanced parallel programming capability Supports latest AIX operating system, AIX 6.1 Enhanced support for Fortran 2003 including updates to the OPEN and INQUIRE statements with the ENCODING= specifier to indicate the encoding form of the files Many new features and enhancements for performance tuning and optimization including enrichment of the -qstrict option to allow additional control of optimizations controlled by the STRICT option IBM United States Announcement 208-214 IBM is a registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation 1
New and changed compiler options and directives Key prerequisites IBM Power Systems servers supported by AIX 6.1 and AIX V5.3 Disk space: 250 MB Planned availability dates July 11, 2008: Electronic software delivery July 25, 2008: Physical software delivery Description, V12.1 is the follow-on release to XL Fortran Enterprise Edition for AIX, V11.1., V12.1 continues to deliver additional functionality and enhancements including support for selected features of OpenMP Application Program Interface (OpenMP API) Version 3.0 for increased parallel programming capability. This release of the XL Fortran compiler also supports the latest AIX operating system, includes additional XL Fortran language-related updates, and performance tuning and optimization enhancements. Support for OpenMP API V3.0, V12.1 delivers selected features of the OpenMP API V3.0 specification. The XL Fortran implementation is based on IBM's interpretation of the OpenMP Application Program Interface Draft Version 3.0 Public Comment. The OpenMP API supports multi-platform shared-memory parallel programming in C/C++ and Fortran on all architectures, including UNIX platforms and Windows platforms. 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. The XL Fortran compiler support for OpenMP API V3.0 includes: Addition of task level parallelization The new OpenMP constructs TASK and TASKWAIT give users the ability to parallelize irregular algorithms, such as pointer chasing or recursive algorithms. XL Fortran supports selected features of the OpenMP TASK feature. Nesting support A COLLAPSE clause is added to the DO, and PARALLEL DO directives to allow parallelization of perfect loop nests. Multiple loops in a nest can now be parallelized. Support for the latest AIX operating system The XL Fortran compiler supports the latest AIX operating system, AIX 6.1. AIX is an open, standards-based UNIX operating system that provides the enterprise information technology infrastructure for applications developed with the compiler product. AIX 6.1 is designed to fully exploit the latest IBM POWER6 processor. XL Fortran is designed to exploit, optimize, and tune for this processor, and includes ARCH and TUNE suboptions to support the POWER6 processor. XL Fortran language-related updates Since the V8.1 release, XL Fortran has delivered many Fortran 2003 standard features. This release of XL Fortran includes updates to: The OPEN and INQUIRE statements with the ENCODING= specifier to indicate the encoding form of the file. The IEEE modules with a new constant, IEEE_OTHER_VALUE and three new functions: IEEE_SET_UNDERFLOW_MODE, IEEE_GET_UNDERFLOW_MODE, and IEEE_SUPPORT_UNDERFLOW_MODE.

These additional enhancements will help with the development of highly portable and standards-compliant XL Fortran applications. Performance and optimization Many sets of suboptions have been added to the STRICT compiler option to allow for more fine-grained control over optimizations and transformations controlled by the STRICT option: precision For controlling optimizations and transformations that may affect the precision of program results. exceptions For controlling optimizations and transformations that may affect the runtime exceptions generated by the program., V12.1 also includes the following new or changed performance-related options and directives: EXECUTION_FREQUENCY The EXECUTION_FREQUENCY directive marks source code that is expected to be executed very frequently or very infrequently. When optimization is enabled, the directive is used as a hint to the optimizer. -qreport The -qreport compiler option produces listing files that show how sections of code have been optimized. The listing now contains information about how many streams are created for each loop and which loops cannot be SIMD vectorized due to non-stride-one references. This information can be used to improve the performance of applications. -qsmp=omp The -qsmp compiler option enables parallelization of program code. When -qsmp=omp is in effect, some of the additional functionality of OpenMP API V3.0 is available. These new features and enhancements can assist with performance tuning and optimization of XL Fortran applications. Additional new or changed compiler options The following additional new or changed compiler options are available with this release of the compiler: -qfpp The -qfpp compiler option allows Fortran-specific preprocessing features in the C preprocessor which ships with XL Fortran. Since it is a C preprocessor option it is invoked with the -WF option as -WF, -qfpp. -qppsuborigarg The -qppsuborigarg compiler option instructs the C preprocessor to substitute original macro arguments before further macro expansion. Since it is a C preprocessor option it is invoked with the -WF option as -WF, -qppsuborigarg. -qtimestamps The -qtimestamps compiler option controls whether or not implicit compiler-generated timestamps are inserted into object files.

, V12.1 is part of the IBM family of IBM compilers that support a number of platforms. It joins IBM XL C for AIX and XL C/C++ for AIX on IBM Power Systems, XL C/C++ Advanced Edition for Linux and XL Fortran Advanced Edition for Linux on IBM Power Systems, XL C/C++ for z/os, ILE C/C++ for OS/400 on IBM i, and C/C++ for z/vm. The code base for all of these compilers (C, C++, and Fortran) is the same. This facilitates source-level portability of your applications from these platforms to AIX. XL Fortran now supports selected features of OpenMP API V3.0 and a majority of the Fortran 2003 standard. The following programming language specifications for Fortran are supported: ISO/IEC 1539-1:1991(e) and ANSI X3.198-1992 (referred to as Fortran 90 or F90) ISO/IEC 1539-1:1997 (referred to as Fortran 95 or F95) Extensions to the Fortran 95 standard Industry extensions that are found in Fortran products from various compiler vendors Extensions specified in SAA Fortran The majority of the Fortran 2003 standard, except for derived type parameters, but including object-oriented programming Common Fortran language extensions as defined by other compiler vendors, in addition to those defined by IBM In addition to the standardized language levels, XL Fortran supports language extensions, including: OpenMP API V2.5 and selected OpenMP API V3.0 extensions to support portable parallelized programming Language extensions to support vector programming With representation from the IBM compiler development team on the Fortran language standards committee and on the OpenMP industry specifications committee, IBM is in a position to understand the latest updates, clarifications, and recommendations to the Fortran and OpenMP standards. Support of programming language standards allows for portability of your source code among a variety of compiler implementations.
