  • pts/aio-stress fails to install

    Hi Michael,

    I'm having problems installing the pts/disk suite. In particular pts/aio-stress fails to install.
    When I call to install dependencies it exits with no errros so I'm assuing it's not a dependency problem.

    Code:
    phoronix-test-suite install pts/aio-stress
    
    Phoronix Test Suite v3.6.1
    
        To Install: pts/aio-stress-1.1.0

    The following tests failed to install:
    
            - pts/aio-stress-1.1.0

    I'm using kubuntu 12.04 kernel 3.2.0-32 and here's the install log:

    any support would be really appreciated as there's nothing I could find on google.

    I'm having this exact same problem. Were you able to find a solution?

      Unfortunately, I wasn't and I had to leave aio-stress out of my benchmarks. Let us know if u find something as well!

        I'm having this same problem, but I'm having problems installing the pts/cairo-demos suite on Fedora.
        Install log:

          Ok I solved it.

          The problem is that for some reason, gcc is not including the libraries that aio-stress requires to compile. You can see this by compiling the aio-stress.c file manually with the additional flags: "-laio" and "-lpthread"

          Doing this will result in a working aio-stress binary, so you need to pass these flags to the main system gcc when it used by phoronix.

          This is how I did it:

          First, make sure that libaio-dev is installed

          Code:
          sudo apt-get install libaio-dev
          Then re-name gcc "gcc1"

          Code:
          sudo mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc1
          Then create a file named "gcc" and paste in this python code:
          Code:
          sudo vim /usr/bin/gcc
          Code:
          #!/usr/bin/env python
          
          import sys
          import subprocess
          
          def main():
          	args = ['gcc1']
          	args.extend(sys.argv[1:])
          	args.extend(["-laio", "-lpthread"])
          	print args
          	subprocess.call(args)
          
          if __name__ == '__main__': 
          	main()
          Finally, set the correct permissions:

          Code:
          sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/gcc
          Then you should be able to install the test successfully:

          Code:
          phoronix-test-suite install-test pts/aio-stress
          NOTE: Obviously this will change the system-wide gcc to include the two libraries "laio" and "pthread". Once the test has been successfully installed, you can put gcc back to normal with:

          Code:
          sudo mv /usr/bin/gcc1 /usr/bin/gcc
          Hope this is helpful! I'm so pleased to have this finally working!

              Thanks for your help, but the issue still exists on my Fedora system.

                If you already the aio library installed there is a cleaner way to get the compiler the right arguments. You just need to change the file: ~/.phoronix-test-suite/test-profiles/pts/aio-stress-1.1.0/install.sh to be the following (note the "-laio -lpthread" has been moved to end of the cc command):

                Code:
                #!/bin/sh
                
                cc -Wall -o aio-stress-bin aio-stress.c -laio -lpthread
                echo $? > ~/install-exit-status
                
                # add support for allowing aio-test-file to be on removable media devices
                echo "#!/bin/sh
                ./aio-stress-bin \$@ aio-test-file > \$LOG_FILE 2>&1
                echo \$? > ~/test-exit-status
                rm -f aio-test-file" > aio-stress
                chmod +x aio-stress
                That got the test to work find on my Ubuntu 12.04 system.
