Note: For more examples on using the implicit memory copy model, see:
C: /opt/intel/composerxe/Samples/en_US/C++/mic_samples/shrd_sampleC
and …/LEO_tutorial
C++: /opt/intel/composerxe/Samples/en_US/C++/mic_samples/shrd_sampleCPP
For more information, users are encouraged to read the Intel C++ Compiler User and Reference Guides and/or
the Intel Fortran Compiler User and Reference Guides.
The section “Restrictions on Offload Using Shared Virtual Memory” in the document “Intel C++ Compiler User
and Reference Guide” shows some restrictions of using this programming model.
Native Compilation
Applications can also be run natively on the Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor, in which case the coprocessor will
be treated as a standalone multicore computer. Once the binary is built on the host system, copy the binary
and other related binaries or data to the Intel® Xeon Phi™ Coprocessor’s filesystem (or make them visible over
there via NFS).
Example:
1. Copy openmp_sample.c from
/opt/intel/composerxe/Samples/en_US/C++/openmp_samples/ to your home directory
2. Build the application with the –mmic flag:
icc –mmic –vec-report3 –openmp openmp_sample.c
3. Upload the binary to the coprocessor:
scp a.out mic0:/tmp/a.out
4. Copy over any shared libraries required by your application, in this case the OpenMP* runtime library:
