Building MILEPOST

Simple guide to building MILEPOST on Linux

1) Download MILEPOST v2.5 with GCC 4.4.4.

2) (Optional) Download setup_env.sh

3) Extract the archive downloaded in step 1 (tar xvzf ctuning-cc-2.5-gcc-4.4.4-ici-2.05-milepost-2.1.tar.gz)

4) cd into the newly created ctuning-cc-2.5-gcc-4.4.4-ici-2.05-milepost-2.1 directory

5) Before building, you'll need to download and apply the following patches (wget <patch_link>; patch -Np1 -i <patch_file>.patch) gcc_build_script.sh, ptrdiff.patch, and siginfo.patch. If you are using a version of texinfo >= 5.0 then you'll also need to download and apply texinfo5.patch.

6) Run ./_build_all.sh
