oneAPI packages in Spack
========================
Spack can install and use the Intel oneAPI products. You may either
use spack to install the oneAPI tools or use the `Intel
installers`_. After installation, you may use the tools directly, or
use Spack to build packages with the tools.
The Spack Python class ``IntelOneapiPackage`` is a base class that is
used by ``IntelOneapiCompilers``, ``IntelOneapiMkl``,
``IntelOneapiTbb`` and other classes to implement the oneAPI
packages. Search for ``oneAPI`` at `<packages.spack.io>`_ for the full
list of available oneAPI packages, or use::
spack list -d oneAPI
For more information on a specific package, do::
spack info --all <package-name>
Intel no longer releases new versions of Parallel Studio, which can be
used in Spack via the :ref:`intelpackage`. All of its components can
now be found in oneAPI.
Examples
========
Building a Package With icx
---------------------------
In this example, we build patchelf with ``icc`` and ``icx``. The
compilers are installed with spack.
Install the oneAPI compilers::
spack install intel-oneapi-compilers
Add the compilers to your ``compilers.yaml`` so spack can use them::
spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/bin
Verify that the compilers are available::
spack compiler list
Note that 2024 and later releases do not include ``icc``. Before 2024,
the package layout was different::
spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/linux/bin/intel64
spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/linux/bin
The ``intel-oneapi-compilers`` package includes 2 families of
compilers:
* ``intel``: ``icc``, ``icpc``, ``ifort``. Intel's *classic*
compilers. 2024 and later releases contain ``ifort``, but not
``icc`` and ``icpc``.
* ``oneapi``: ``icx``, ``icpx``, ``ifx``. Intel's new generation of
compilers based on LLVM.
To build the ``patchelf`` Spack package with ``icc``, do::
spack install patchelf%intel
To build with with ``icx``, do ::
spack install patchelf%oneapi
Using oneAPI Spack environment
-------------------------------
In this example, we build lammps with ``icx`` using Spack environment for oneAPI packages created by Intel. The
compilers are installed with Spack like in example above.
Install the oneAPI compilers::
spack install intel-oneapi-compilers
Add the compilers to your ``compilers.yaml`` so Spack can use them::
spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/bin
spack compiler add `spack location -i intel-oneapi-compilers`/compiler/latest/bin
Verify that the compilers are available::
spack compiler list
Clone `spack-configs <https://github.com/spack/spack-configs>`_ repo and activate Intel oneAPI CPU environment::
git clone https://github.com/spack/spack-configs
spack env activate spack-configs/INTEL/CPU
spack concretize -f
`Intel oneAPI CPU environment <https://github.com/spack/spack-configs/blob/main/INTEL/CPU/spack.yaml>`_ contains applications tested and validated by Intel, this list is constantly extended. And currently it supports:
- `Devito <https://www.devitoproject.org/>`_
- `GROMACS <https://www.gromacs.org/>`_
- `HPCG <https://www.hpcg-benchmark.org/>`_
- `HPL <https://netlib.org/benchmark/hpl/>`_
- `LAMMPS <https://www.lammps.org/#gsc.tab=0>`_
- `OpenFOAM <https://www.openfoam.com/>`_
- `Quantum Espresso <https://www.quantum-espresso.org/>`_
- `STREAM <https://www.cs.virginia.edu/stream/>`_
- `WRF <https://github.com/wrf-model/WRF>`_
To build lammps with oneAPI compiler from this environment just run::
spack install lammps
Compiled binaries can be find using::
spack cd -i lammps
You can do the same for all other applications from this environment.
Using oneAPI MPI to Satisfy a Virtual Dependence
------------------------------------------------------
The ``hdf5`` package works with any compatible MPI implementation. To
build ``hdf5`` with Intel oneAPI MPI do::
spack install hdf5 +mpi ^intel-oneapi-mpi
Using Externally Installed oneAPI Tools
=======================================
Spack can also use oneAPI tools that are manually installed with
`Intel Installers`_. The procedures for configuring Spack to use
external compilers and libraries are different.
Compilers
---------
To use the compilers, add some information about the installation to
``compilers.yaml``. For most users, it is sufficient to do::
spack compiler add /opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/bin
Adapt the paths above if you did not install the tools in the default
location. After adding the compilers, using them is the same
as if you had installed the ``intel-oneapi-compilers`` package.
Another option is to manually add the configuration to
``compilers.yaml`` as described in :ref:`Compiler configuration
<compiler-config>`.
Before 2024, the directory structure was different::
spack compiler add /opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/linux/bin/intel64
spack compiler add /opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/linux/bin
Libraries
---------
If you want Spack to use oneMKL that you have installed without Spack in
the default location, then add the following to
``~/.spack/packages.yaml``, adjusting the version as appropriate::
intel-oneapi-mkl:
externals:
- spec: intel-oneapi-mkl@2021.1.1
prefix: /opt/intel/oneapi/
Using oneAPI Tools Installed by Spack
=====================================
Spack can be a convenient way to install and configure compilers and
libraries, even if you do not intend to build a Spack package. If you
want to build a Makefile project using Spack-installed oneAPI compilers,
then use spack to configure your environment::
spack load intel-oneapi-compilers
And then you can build with::
CXX=icpx make
You can also use Spack-installed libraries. For example::
spack load intel-oneapi-mkl
Will update your environment CPATH, LIBRARY_PATH, and other
environment variables for building an application with oneMKL.
