Notes

  • All the tests have been passed.
  • Intel 2020u2 failed to compile yambo (fftw part). This is a known issue of this compiler version.
  • Intel 2019u5 and 2019u5(compilers and MKL) + 2020u2(MPI) couldn't pass tests.
  • Intel 18 version shows slightly better performance than GCC version (tested with Au surf system)。
  • plumed option seems to be removed from Makefile (obsolete?).
  • gipaw is not available for this version (at least for now; Jan 4, 2021).
