INSTALL.md

Installation from Sources

Required Software:

• C/C++ compiler (see System Requirements)

• Java* JDK (see System Requirements)

• Microsoft Visual Studio* (Windows* only)

• MSYS2 installer with the msys/make package (Windows* only); install the package as follows:

    pacman -S msys/make
  

Installation Steps

1. Clone the sources from GitHub* as follows:

    git clone --recursive https://github.com/intel/daal.git
   

2. Set the PATH environment variable to the MSYS2* bin directory (Windows* only). For example:

    set PATH=C:\msys64\usr\bin;%PATH%
   

3. Set the environment variables for one of the supported C/C++ compilers. For example:

   • Microsoft Visual Studio*:

       call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
     

   • Intel Compiler (Windows*):

       call "C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries\windows\bin\compilervars.bat" intel64
     

   • Intel Compiler (Linux*):

       source /opt/intel/compilers_and_libraries/linux/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
     

4. Set the environment variables for one of the supported Java* compilers. For example:

   • Windows*:

       set JAVA_HOME=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_77
       set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
       set INCLUDE=%JAVA_HOME%\include;%JAVA_HOME%\include\win32;%INCLUDE%
     

   • Linux*:

       export JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk/jdk1.6.0_02
       export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
       export CPATH=$JAVA_HOME/include:$JAVA_HOME/include/linux:$CPATH
     

5. Download and set an environment for mklfpk libs:

   • Windows*:

       call .\scripts\mklfpk.bat
     

   • Linux*:

       scripts/mklfpk.sh [32|32e]
     

6. Download and install Intel(R) Threading Building Blocks (Intel(R) TBB):

   • Windows*:

     • Download and install free Community License Intel TBB (see Get Intel(R) Performance Libraries for Free) or build your own Intel TBB from Intel(R) TBB GitHub repository.

     • Set the environment variables for Intel TBB. For example:

       call "C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries\windows\tbb\bin\tbbvars.bat" intel64 all

   • Linux*:

     • Use pre-build package or build Intel TBB on your own. Alternatively, you can use scripts to do this for you:

       scripts/tbb.sh [32|32e]

7. Build oneDAL via command-line interface. Choose the appropriate commands based on the platform and the compiler you use:

   • on Linux* using Intel(R) C++ Compiler:

       make -f makefile daal PLAT=lnx32e
     

   • on Linux* using GNU Compiler Collection*:

       make -f makefile daal PLAT=lnx32e COMPILER=gnu
     

   • on Windows* using Intel(R) C++ Compiler:

       make -f makefile daal PLAT=win32e
     

   • on Windows* using Microsoft Visual* C++ Compiler:

       make -f makefile daal PLAT=win32e COMPILER=vc
     

It is possible to build oneDAL libraries with selected set of algorithms and/or CPU optimizations. CORE.ALGORITHMS.CUSTOM and REQCPUS makefile defines are used for it.

• To build oneDAL with Linear Regression and Support Vector Machine algorithms, run:

        make -f makefile daal PLAT=win32e CORE.ALGORITHMS.CUSTOM="linear_regression svm" -j16
  

• To build oneDAL with AVX2 and AVX CPU optimizations, run:

        make -f makefile daal PLAT=win32e REQCPU="avx2 avx" -j16
  

• To build oneDAL with Moments of Low Order algorithm and AVX2 CPU optimizations, run:

        make -f makefile daal PLAT=win32e CORE.ALGORITHMS.CUSTOM=low_order_moments REQCPU=avx2 -j16

NOTE: Built libraries are located in the __release_{os_name}/daal directory.
