Compile errors with Assembler messages

Question

I'm working with Point Cloud Library. It's mostly in C++ When I compile it, gives such error:

Could anyone tell me how to read these errors and give me some suggestions to solve?

Answer 1

You can add -march=native -mno-avx This worked for me.

In my CMakeLists.txt, I added the above to the CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS :

SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-ggdb -O3 -fPIC -std=c++0x -march=native -mno-avx")

[Source can be found in this page.]

Answer 2

You can use the command below to see what is your CPU (for the compiler): gcc -march=native -Q --help=target | grep march

Then you can add your cpu type in the ccmake CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS option, for me: CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS = -march=corei7-avx

Answer 3

I have met the same error messages, I removed the -march=native from CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS in my makefile, it works in my case. But since you didn't put out your makefile, I am not sure this will works in your case, any way you can have a try.

Answer 4

You probably need to enable advanced vector extensions when compiling (and use toolchain that supports this). Try -march=core-avx2 or something similar.

If you compiled library yourself, it is possible you need to configure it to not use AVX.

Answer 5

Have you tried using a different compiler?

I had assembler errors in a project using Point Cloud Library. It was possibly due to using Ubuntu 12.04 on an core i7 processor (see https://github.com/uzh-rpg/rpg_svo/issues/7).

I was able to compile by installing the 'clang' compiler

sudo apt-get install clang

and then running cmake with:

cmake -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ .

Answer 6

I faced this issue when trying to install glove.

The problem I faced was resolved by upgrading the g++ version installed in my ubuntu 14.04 machine.

My original g++ version was 4.6.4 and I upgraded it to the g++-5 (5.4.1 when I upgraded it).
