Got a compile failed when make the tool

[penny56]

Hi, I got this error while I make the smc-tools:

[root@t257davet smc-tools-1.6.0]# make
  CC      smc-preload.o
/bin/sh: cc: command not found
make: *** [Makefile:88: smc-preload.o] Error 127

I loaded the SMC module before I did the make

[root@t257davet smc-tools-1.6.0]# lsmod | grep smc
smc                   135168  0
pnet                   16384  1 smc
ib_core               385024  7 rdma_cm,rpcrdma,smc,iw_cm,rdma_ucm,ib_uverbs,ib_cm

The OS environment is RHEL8.3 and the tool version is 1.6.0, thanks for the help and any question please let me know.

Looks like you don't have a compiler installed. The most pragmatic way on RHEL 8.3 should be to install the "Development Tools" group via dnf group install "Development Tools"

Thanks Stefan, I think I have a progress after the "Development Tools" installed, but still encountered a fatal while make:

[root@t257davet smc-tools-1.6.0]# make
  CC      smc-preload.o
  LINK    libsmc-preload.so
Makefile:101: "Warning: Skipping 31/32-bit library build because 31/32-bit build tools"

Makefile:103: "         unless the glibc devel package for the appropriate addressing"
Makefile:104: "         mode is installed and the preload libraries are rebuilt."
  CC      smcd.o

Thanks~

You're missing the header file netlink/genl/genl.h. Install libnl3-devel to get that.

Thanks Stefan, it compiled completed, close this ticket.
