ixpdimm_sw contains the following interface components:

An Application Program Interface (API) library which provides programatic access to the IXPDIMM SW functionality.

A Command Line Interface (CLI) application for configuring and managing IXPDIMMs from the command line.

#Build GNU Make is used to build for Linux and Windows. As such we recommend mingw_w64 and msys be used to build in a windows environment. Both of which can be found at mingw.org

#Build Windows

#The following variables must be set to find the required dependencies necessary to build.

The default path to these dependencies for windows is: workspace/external/ where the makefile is located in: workspace/ixpdimm/makefile

• MINGW_DIR - On Windows, the path to the MinGW 64-bit tools.
• OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR - The path to the openssl headers.
• OPENSSL_LIB_DIR - The path to openssl libraries.
• SQLITE_INCLUDE_DIR - The path to the sqlite headers.
• SQLITE_LIB_DIR - The path to the sqlite libraries.
• ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR - The path to the zlib headers.
• ZLIB_LIB_DIR - The path to the zlib libraries.
• OS_INCLUDE_DIR - The path to any OS specific driver headers.
• OS_LIB_DIR - The path to any OS specific driver libraries.
• RAPIDXML_INCLUDE_DIR - The path to the rapidxml headers.
• GETTEXT_EXE_DIR - The path to the xgettext.exe (for string translations).
• INTEL_CLI_FRAMEWORK_DIR - The path to Intel NVM CLI libraries
• INTEL_CIM_FRAMEWORK_DIR - The path to Intel NVM CIM libraries
• INTEL_I18N_DIR - The path to Intel I18N libraries

Assuming default paths have been used execute 'make RELEASE=1'

build artifacts can then be found in output/build/windows/release

#Build Linux

Kernel 4.3 or newer is suggested, a prebuilt fedora 4.3 kernel can be found at

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/kernel/4.3.0/1.fc24/x86_64/

libndctl is required to build, an rpm can be found at.

https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/djbw/ndctl/

and the source can be found at

https://github.com/pmem/ndctl

invm-frameworks library is required, the source can be found at

https://github.com/01org/invm-frameworks

All other dependencies are widely available. This includes openssl sqlite and zlib.

Once dependencies have been resolved execute 'make RELEASE=1'

build artifacts can be found in output/build/linux/release

Artifacts can then be installed using 'make install RELEASE=1'

CMake buildsystem is also supported for Linux. #CMake Build

Create and change to output directory "mkdir output && cd output"

Generate makefiles by executing "cmake .. -DRELEASE=ON"

Build using "make" and install using "make install"
