AMD Optimizing CPU Libraries (AOCL)
AMD Optimizing CPU Libraries (AOCL) are a set of numerical libraries optimized for AMD “Zen”-based processors, including EPYC, Ryzen Threadripper PRO, and Ryzen.
AOCL is comprised of eight libraries: - BLIS (BLAS Library) - libFLAME (LAPACK) - AMD-FFTW - LibM (AMD Core Math Library) - ScaLAPACK - AMD Random Number Generator (RNG) - AMD Secure RNG - AOCL-Sparse
Tip
AOCL 3.1 and 4.0 are available. 3.1 is default.
Compiling with AOCL
Important
AOCL does not currently support the Cray programming environment and is
currently unavailable with PrgEnv-cray loaded.
Important
The cray-libsci module is loaded by default for all users and this module
also contains definitions of BLAS, LAPACK and ScaLAPACK routines that conflict
with those in AOCL. The aocl module automatically unloads cray-libsci.
GNU Programming Environment
AOCL 3.1 and 4.0 is available for all versions of the GCC compilers: gcc/11.2.0 and gcc/10.3.0
module load PrgEnv-gnu
module load aocl
AOCC Programming Environment
AOCL 3.1 and 4.0 is available for all versions of the AOCC compilers: aocc/3.2.0.
module load PrgEnv-aocc
module load aocl
