Trouble building PAPI on Centos 6

Hi,
I am trying to build PAPI 3.7.2 on a Centos 6 distribution having linux 2.6.32 kernel. While building, i am getting the following error. Is it mandatory to have curses library installed to work with PAPI performance counters?

gcc -O2 -g -Wall -Werror -I/home/archana/PAPI/papi-3.7.2/src/libpfm-3.y/examples_v2.x/../include -I. -D_GNU_SOURCE -pthread -c rtop.c

Is there any reason you are trying to build PAPI 3.7.2?  If you are 
running a 2.6.32 kernel you're much better off running something modern, 
like PAPI 5.0.1.

Hi,
 Now i am getting the following error-

Do i have to install something else before i install PAPI. I am
specifying the following while doing ./configure as perf_events.h is
in /usr/include/linux.

./configure --with-pcl=yes --with-pcl-incdir=/usr/include/linux

Archana,

You should be able to build the Fedora RPMS in CentOS6. Download and
rebuild the SRPMS available in these two links:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=351042

That sounds like a problem with the bundled libpfm.  There is a patch in the papi git to address this problme
for 32-bit machine:

http://icl.cs.utk.edu/trac/papi/ticket/151

You need something like the attached patch to fix this.

Re: Trouble building PAPI 5.0.1 on Centos 6

Hi,

Thanks for the patch. it made the error go away.

The next error i am getting is the following:

perf_events.c: In function 'detect_rdpmc'

perf_events.c:738: error: 'struct perf_event_mmap_page' has no member named 'cap_usr_rdpmc'

Can you please help?

Thanks.

Re: Trouble building PAPI 5.0.1 on Centos 6

I realized i am picking the wrong header file perf_events.h, the error went away when i picked the right one.
