[eigen] compilation failure in CUDA/Half.h in non-nvcc build

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/eigen Archives ]


Hi all,

Building with the new(?) LLVM-based g++ on Mac, I'm getting the following
/Users/cdyer/eigen-dev/Eigen/src/Core/arch/CUDA/Half.h:285:9: error: use of undeclared identifier '_cvtss_sh'
  h.x = _cvtss_sh(ff, 0);
        ^
/Users/cdyer/eigen-dev/Eigen/src/Core/arch/CUDA/Half.h:338:10: error: use of undeclared identifier '_cvtsh_ss'
  return _cvtsh_ss(h.x);

Poking around, it looks like there was a recent change to LLVM to add these intrinsics this change hasn't made it into the standard Xcode release (which most mac developers use, I think).

Adding
   #undef EIGEN_HAS_FP16_C
will fix this, but I'm not quite sure what the appropriate ifdef guard is. Fixing this could be quite useful for your Mac users.

Best,
Chris
