Recently, CI builds on OLCF's Frontier with --enable-hip have begun to produce the following (harmless) warning from every application compile:
<command-line>: warning: "__HIP_PLATFORM_AMD__" redefined
<command-line>: note: this is the location of the previous definition
This is due to relatively recent behavior in which the cc and CC
compiler wrappers in the Cray Programming Environment pass -D__HIP_PLATFORM_AMD__. Since such a option is implicitly a definition to 1, this is a conflict
with UPC++'s definition (by upcxx or upcxx-meta) to a (historically necessary) empty value.
Ideally, our
configurescript would probeCXXfor any definition is provides for__HIP_PLATFORM_AMD__and either match it or omit our definition.In the meantime:
Makefilegenerated byconfigure, prior to runningmake, to remove the conflicting definition (if you need clearer instructions, then this approach is probably not for you).
