Build LAMMPS

************

LAMMPS can be built as an executable or library from source code via

either traditional makefiles (which may require manual editing)

for use with GNU make or gmake, or a build environment generated by CMake

(Unix Makefiles, Xcode, Visual Studio, KDevelop or more).  As an

alternative you can download a package with pre-built executables

as described on the :doc:`Install <Install>` doc page.

Basic build options

===================

The following topics are covered on this page, for building both with

CMake and make:

* :ref:`Serial vs parallel build <serial>`

* :ref:`Choice of compiler and compile/link options <compile>`

* :ref:`Build LAMMPS as an executable or a library <exe>`

* :ref:`Build the LAMMPS documentation <doc>`

* :ref:`Install LAMMPS after a build <install>`

----------

.. _serial:

Serial vs parallel build

-------------------------------------

LAMMPS can be built to run in parallel using the ubiquitous `MPI (message-passing interface) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Passing_Interface>`_

library.  Or it can built to run on a single processor (serial)

without MPI.  It can also be built with support for OpenMP threading

(see more discussion below).

**CMake variables**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   -D BUILD_MPI=value        # yes or no, default is yes if CMake finds MPI, else no

   -D BUILD_OMP=value        # yes or no (default)

   -D LAMMPS_MACHINE=name    # name = mpi, serial, mybox, titan, laptop, etc

                             # no default value

The executable created by CMake (after running make) is lmp\_name.  If

the LAMMPS\_MACHINE variable is not specified, the executable is just

lmp.  Using BUILD\_MPI=no will produce a serial executable.

**Traditional make**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   cd lammps/src

   make mpi                # parallel build, produces lmp_mpi using Makefile.mpi

   make serial             # serial build, produces lmp_serial using Makefile/serial

   make mybox          # uses Makefile.mybox to produce lmp_mybox

Serial build (see src/MAKE/Makefile.serial):

.. parsed-literal::

   MPI_INC =       -I../STUBS

   MPI_PATH =      -L../STUBS

   MPI_LIB =       -lmpi_stubs

For a parallel build, if MPI is installed on your system in the usual

place (e.g. under /usr/local), you do not need to specify the 3

variables MPI\_INC, MPI\_PATH, MPI\_LIB.  The MPI wrapper on the compiler

(e.g. mpicxx, mpiCC) knows where to find the needed include and

library files.  Failing this, these 3 variables can be used to specify

where the mpi.h file (MPI\_INC), and the MPI library files (MPI\_PATH)

are found, and the name of the library files (MPI\_LIB).

For a serial build, you need to specify the 3 variables, as shown

above.

For a serial LAMMPS build, use the dummy MPI library provided in

src/STUBS.  You also need to build the STUBS library for your platform

before making LAMMPS itself.  A "make serial" build does this for.

Otherwise, type "make mpi-stubs" from the src directory, or "make"

from the src/STUBS dir.  If the build fails, you will need to edit the

STUBS/Makefile for your platform.

The file STUBS/mpi.c provides a CPU timer function called MPI\_Wtime()

that calls gettimeofday() .  If your system doesn't support

gettimeofday() , you'll need to insert code to call another timer.

Note that the ANSI-standard function clock() rolls over after an hour

or so, and is therefore insufficient for timing long LAMMPS

simulations.

**CMake and make info**\ :

If you are installing MPI yourself, we recommend MPICH2 from Argonne

National Laboratory or OpenMPI.  MPICH can be downloaded from the

`Argonne MPI site <http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/>`_.

OpenMPI can be downloaded from the `OpenMPI site <http://www.open-mpi.org>`_.  Other MPI packages should also work.

If you are running on a large parallel machine, your system admins or

the vendor should have already installed a version of MPI, which is

likely to be faster than a self-installed MPICH or OpenMPI, so find

out how to build and link with it.

The majority of OpenMP (threading) support in LAMMPS is provided by

the USER-OMP package; see the :doc:`Speed omp <Speed_omp>` doc page for

details. The USER-INTEL package also provides OpenMP support (it is

compatible with USER-OMP) and adds vectorization support when compiled

with the Intel compilers on top of that. Also, the KOKKOS package can

be compiled for using OpenMP threading.

However, there are a few commands in LAMMPS that have native OpenMP

support.  These are commands in the MPIIO, SNAP, USER-DIFFRACTION, and

USER-DPD packages.  In addition some packages support OpenMP threading

indirectly through the libraries they interface to: e.g. LATTE and

USER-COLVARS.  See the :doc:`Packages details <Packages_details>` doc

page for more info on these packages and the doc pages for their

respective commands for OpenMP threading info.

For CMake, if you use BUILD\_OMP=yes, you can use these packages and

turn on their native OpenMP support and turn on their native OpenMP

support at run time, by setting the OMP\_NUM\_THREADS environment

variable before you launch LAMMPS.

For building via conventional make, the CCFLAGS and LINKFLAGS

variables in Makefile.machine need to include the compiler flag that

enables OpenMP. For GNU compilers it is -fopenmp.  For (recent) Intel

compilers it is -qopenmp.  If you are using a different compiler,

please refer to its documentation.

.. _default-none-issues:

**OpenMP Compiler compatibility info**\ : 

Some compilers do not fully support the 'default(none)' directive

and others (e.g. GCC version 9 and beyond) may implement OpenMP 4.0

semantics, which are incompatible with the OpenMP 3.1 directives used

in LAMMPS (for maximal compatibility with compiler versions in use).

In those case, all 'default(none)' directives (which aid in detecting

incorrect and unwanted sharing) can be replaced with 'default(shared)'

while dropping all 'shared()' directives. The script

'src/USER-OMP/hack\_openmp\_for\_pgi\_gcc9.sh' can be used to automate

this conversion.

----------

.. _compile:

Choice of compiler and compile/link options

---------------------------------------------------------

The choice of compiler and compiler flags can be important for

performance.  Vendor compilers can produce faster code than

open-source compilers like GNU.  On boxes with Intel CPUs, we suggest

trying the `Intel C++ compiler <intel_>`_.

.. _intel: https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-compilers

On parallel clusters or supercomputers which use "modules" for their

compile/link environments, you can often access different compilers by

simply loading the appropriate module before building LAMMPS.

**CMake variables**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=name            # name of C++ compiler

   -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER=name              # name of C compiler

   -D CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=name        # name of Fortran compiler

   -D CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=string             # flags to use with C++ compiler

   -D CMAKE_C_FLAGS=string               # flags to use with C compiler

   -D CMAKE_Fortran_FLAGS=string         # flags to use with Fortran compiler

By default CMake will use a compiler it finds and it will add

optimization flags appropriate to that compiler and any :doc:`accelerator packages <Speed_packages>` you have included in the build.

You can tell CMake to look for a specific compiler with these variable

settings.  Likewise you can specify the FLAGS variables if you want to

experiment with alternate optimization flags.  You should specify all

3 compilers, so that the small number of LAMMPS source files written

in C or Fortran are built with a compiler consistent with the one used

for all the C++ files:

.. parsed-literal::

   Building with GNU Compilers:

   cmake ../cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++ -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=gfortran

   Building with Intel Compilers:

   cmake ../cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icc -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpc -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=ifort

   Building with LLVM/Clang Compilers:

   cmake ../cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ -DCMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER=flang

.. note::

   When the cmake command completes, it prints info to the screen

   as to which compilers it is using, and what flags will be used in the

   compilation.  Note that if the top-level compiler is mpicxx, it is

   simply a wrapper on a real compiler.  The underlying compiler info is

   what will be listed in the CMake output.  You should check to insure

   you are using the compiler and optimization flags are the ones you

   want.

**Makefile.machine settings**\ :

Parallel build (see src/MAKE/Makefile.mpi):

.. parsed-literal::

   CC =            mpicxx

   CCFLAGS =       -g -O3

   LINK =          mpicxx

   LINKFLAGS =     -g -O

Serial build (see src/MAKE/Makefile.serial):

.. parsed-literal::

   CC =            g++

   CCFLAGS =       -g -O3

   LINK =          g++

   LINKFLAGS =     -g -O

The "compiler/linker settings" section of a Makefile.machine lists

compiler and linker settings for your C++ compiler, including

optimization flags.  You should always use mpicxx or mpiCC for

a parallel build, since these compiler wrappers will include

a variety of settings appropriate for your MPI installation.

.. note::

   If you build LAMMPS with any :doc:`accelerator packages <Speed_packages>` included, they have specific

   optimization flags that are either required or recommended for optimal

   performance.  You need to include these in the CCFLAGS and LINKFLAGS

   settings above.  For details, see the individual package doc pages

   listed on the :doc:`Speed packages <Speed_packages>` doc page.  Or

   examine these files in the src/MAKE/OPTIONS directory.  They

   correspond to each of the 5 accelerator packages and their hardware

   variants:

.. parsed-literal::

   Makefile.opt                   # OPT package

   Makefile.omp                   # USER-OMP package

   Makefile.intel_cpu             # USER-INTEL package for CPUs

   Makefile.intel_coprocessor     # USER-INTEL package for KNLs

   Makefile.gpu                   # GPU package

   Makefile.kokkos_cuda_mpi       # KOKKOS package for GPUs

   Makefile.kokkos_omp            # KOKKOS package for CPUs (OpenMP)

   Makefile.kokkos_phi            # KOKKOS package for KNLs (OpenMP)

----------

.. _exe:

Build LAMMPS as an executable or a library

----------------------------------------------------

LAMMPS can be built as either an executable or as a static or shared

library.  The LAMMPS library can be called from another application or

a scripting language.  See the :doc:`Howto couple <Howto_couple>` doc

page for more info on coupling LAMMPS to other codes.  See the

:doc:`Python <Python_head>` doc page for more info on wrapping and

running LAMMPS from Python via its library interface.

**CMake variables**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   -D BUILD_EXE=value           # yes (default) or no

   -D BUILD_LIB=value           # yes or no (default)

   -D BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=value   # yes or no (default)

   -D LAMMPS_LIB_SUFFIX=name    # name = mpi, serial, mybox, titan, laptop, etc

                                # no default value

Setting BUILD\_EXE=no will not produce an executable.  Setting

BUILD\_LIB=yes will produce a static library named liblammps.a.

Setting both BUILD\_LIB=yes and BUILD\_SHARED\_LIBS=yes will produce a

shared library named liblammps.so. If LAMMPS\_LIB\_SUFFIX is set the generated

libraries will be named liblammps\_name.a or liblammps\_name.so instead.

**Traditional make**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   cd lammps/src

   make machine               # build LAMMPS executable lmp_machine

   make mode=lib machine      # build LAMMPS static lib liblammps_machine.a

   make mode=shlib machine    # build LAMMPS shared lib liblammps_machine.so

The two library builds also create generic soft links, named

liblammps.a and liblammps.so, which point to the liblammps\_machine

files.

**CMake and make info**\ :

Note that for a shared library to be usable by a calling program, all

the auxiliary libraries it depends on must also exist as shared

libraries.  This will be the case for libraries included with LAMMPS,

such as the dummy MPI library in src/STUBS or any package libraries in

the lib/packages directory, since they are always built as shared

libraries using the -fPIC switch.  However, if a library like MPI or

FFTW does not exist as a shared library, the shared library build will

generate an error.  This means you will need to install a shared

library version of the auxiliary library.  The build instructions for

the library should tell you how to do this.

As an example, here is how to build and install the `MPICH library <mpich_>`_, a popular open-source version of MPI, distributed by

Argonne National Lab, as a shared library in the default

/usr/local/lib location:

.. _mpich: http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi

.. parsed-literal::

   ./configure --enable-shared

   make

   make install

You may need to use "sudo make install" in place of the last line if

you do not have write privileges for /usr/local/lib.  The end result

should be the file /usr/local/lib/libmpich.so.

----------

.. _doc:

Build the LAMMPS documentation

----------------------------------------

**CMake variable**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   -D BUILD_DOC=value       # yes or no (default)

This will create the HTML doc pages within the CMake build directory.

The reason to do this is if you want to "install" LAMMPS on a system

after the CMake build via "make install", and include the doc pages in

the install.

**Traditional make**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   cd lammps/doc

   make html       # html doc pages

   make pdf        # single Manual.pdf file

This will create a lammps/doc/html dir with the HTML doc pages so that

you can browse them locally on your system.  Type "make" from the

lammps/doc dir to see other options.

.. note::

   You can also download a tarball of the documentation for the

   current LAMMPS version (HTML and PDF files), from the website

   `download page <http://lammps.sandia.gov/download.html>`_.

----------

.. _tools:

Build LAMMPS tools

------------------------------

Some tools described in :doc:`Auxiliary tools <Tools>` can be built directly

using CMake or Make.

**CMake variable**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   -D BUILD_TOOLS=value       # yes or no (default)

The generated binaries will also become part of the LAMMPS installation (see below)

**Traditional make**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   cd lammps/tools

   make all              # build all binaries of tools

   make binary2txt       # build only binary2txt tool

   make chain            # build only chain tool

   make micelle2d        # build only micelle2d tool

   make thermo_extract   # build only thermo_extract tool

----------

.. _install:

Install LAMMPS after a build

------------------------------------------

After building LAMMPS, you may wish to copy the LAMMPS executable of

library, along with other LAMMPS files (library header, doc files) to

a globally visible place on your system, for others to access.  Note

that you may need super-user privileges (e.g. sudo) if the directory

you want to copy files to is protected.

**CMake variable**\ :

.. parsed-literal::

   cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=path [options ...] ../cmake

   make                        # perform make after CMake command

   make install                # perform the installation into prefix

**Traditional make**\ :

There is no "install" option in the src/Makefile for LAMMPS.  If you

wish to do this you will need to first build LAMMPS, then manually

copy the desired LAMMPS files to the appropriate system directories.
