SSE instruction set not enabled

问题:

I am getting trouble with this error: "SSE instruction set not enabled". How I can figure this out?

I have ACER i7, Ubuntu 11.10, please any one can help me?

Any help will be appreciated!

Also running:

 sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep flags

Gives:

Actually i was trying to install gazebo-1.0.0-RC2-x86_64, and getting this error.

I already have this option in my cmakefile

if (SSE3_FOUND)
  set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL} -msse3")
endif()
if (SSSE3_FOUND)
  set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL} -mssse3")
endif()
if (SSE4_1_FOUND)
  set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL} -msse4.1")
endif()
if (SSE4_2_FOUND)
  set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS_ALL} -msse4.2")
endif()

回答1:

One of your header files checks to ensure that SSE is enabled. It appears that your if statements aren't working.

If you add -march=native it should pick the best CPU arch and flags to compile for based on your processor, or you can explicitly use -march=corei7 -mavx -mpclmul, which is useful for distcc. Also, -mfpmath=sse/-mfpmath=387 will tell the compiler to generate SSE/x87 instructions for floating point math. Depending on your processor, either could be faster, but I think Intel processors are usually better at SSE.

If you want to check what gcc is enabling using the native flag run gcc -march=native -Q --help=target -v.

I got the same error and I think I've found the proper solution!

The problem is that you are included the emmintrin.h. I did the same. What is more if I defined SSE2, SSE and MMX before including this file I got the following message: warning: "SSE2" redefined [enabled by default]

So I tried to investigate where SSE2 is defined and/or used I found that this file is included by x86intrin.h. So include this file and according to the -msse* flags the proper *intrin.h files will be included automatically!

It works for me nicely (g++ 4.7.2-5).

I hope I could help!

I just built this on FreeBSD by adding this to the "Makefile" in /usr/ports/audio/soundtouch :

CC=             gcc46
CXX=            g++46
CPP=            cpp46
CFLAGS+=        -msse

I hope the rest of the "phonon-gstreamer" plugins compile with this.
