First — my apologies. My previous post was written with an automatic translator and was confusing. Sorry for that. Below is a corrected, concise description of the problem and the exact output I have. I would appreciate any advice.

Short summary

1. Machine: dual-socket server node with two Intel Xeon E5-2697 v2 (Ivy Bridge). These CPUs support AVX but do not support AVX2.
2. Compiler/linker: Intel Fortran (I use mpiifx as the Fortran driver and icc/icpc for C/C++).
3. Build: I compiled using the included .inc (snippet below) with -march=ivybridge. Compilation completed successfully.
   4)Run: When running the produced binary with the CRYSTAL input (included below) the program crashes immediately with:

forrtl: severe (168): Program Exception - illegal instruction

Thank you in advance for any guidance. I’m happy to attach any of the files or run recommended diagnostics — please tell me which outputs would be most helpful.

Again, sorry for the confusion from the earlier (poorly translated) message.

I probably won’t be able to share the .inc file at the moment, as I’ve modified it multiple times. The situation is that the compilation completes successfully and crystal23 starts, but it crashes because my processor’s AVX version is too old for the Intel toolkit.

I mentioned the processor model for a reason: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/75281/intel-xeon-processor-e52695-v2-30m-cache-2-40-ghz/specifications.html

Support for this CPU was effectively discontinued even before the first versions of the Intel toolkit were released.

I wasn’t able to disable the use of this instruction during compilation. However, if you know how to do it, I can locate one of the working .inc files I still have.

Given this, it seems that using a different compiler would be necessary.

Hi!

I am trying to compile Crystal 23 on Xeon E-2695v2 processors, but they are not supported by the Intel Toolkit. I am missing the instruction vfmadd231sd, giving GDB output:

Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.

Could you please suggest a compilation method, such as using GCC or any other compiler? Is there a way to compile it using CMake?

Thank you!
