[QE-users] QE compilation for Mac with Intel processor

[Kliavinek, Sergei]

Dear QE developers, 

I compile QE inside Docker, which I run on several computers, including a Mac with an Intel processor. I manage to configure and compile pw.x, however, I get the following on running it:

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

Here is the configuration command I am using:

./configure CFLAGS=-O3 FFLAGS=-O3 F90=ifort MPIF90=mpiifort --with-hdf5="/opt/hdf5"
I've also tried to add arguments  -host=mac686, ARCH="mac686", and this command:
./configure CFLAGS=-O3 FFLAGS=-O3

But also obtained the same result. 

However, If directly disable parallelizaton:

./configure CFLAGS=-O3 FFLAGS=-O3 --disable-parallel

Everything works fine. 
What could be the problem?

P.S. I use intel toolkit as a base image:
FROM intel/oneapi-hpckit:2023.0.0-devel-ubuntu22.04

Best, 
Sergei
