Segmentation violation when running MAGMA rc4 tests

[evanlezar]

I have been trying to get MAGMA 1.0.0-rc4 running and have run into a problem. Every one of the testing programs causes a segmentation fault. Furthermore, this segmentation fault is thrown before any of the code in the main routine is executed. The gdb output for the testing_sgemm program is shown below.

Has anyone else had such problems?

Thanks

I seem to have solved the problem.

The issue is that my make.inc had CC=gcc -shared and as such the executables were being compiled as shared libraries. Setting CC=gcc in the testing Makefile and including some of the other object files for the compilation solved the problem.
