PSA: I just enabled OPENBLAS, but I had to disable both MKL and DNNL to do it. Please let me know how that goes.

Needs a patch like this for the time being:

First, there should be -DWITH_CUDNN="${WITH_CUDNN:-OFF}" \\ otherwise there's a warning. Probably the same with WITH_OPENBLAS.

Second, I had an error:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13.2.1/include/amxtileintrin.h(42): error: identifier "__builtin_ia32_ldtilecfg" is undefined

because of https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/2b3ecdf4fb13471b69d80583e10c5baedfe84d7c in gcc 13.2.1 which changed 2 lines.

So I had to use 13.2.0's amxtileintrin.h

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/83ffe9cde7fe0b4deb0d1b54175fd9b19c38179c/gcc/config/i386/amxtileintrin.h -O /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13.2.1/include/amxtileintrin.h.13.2.0 && \
sudo mv /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13.2.1/include/amxtileintrin.h{,.13.2.1} && \
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13.2.1/include/amxtileintrin.h{.13.2.0,}

Then I had the linking problem ("multiple definitions" in kernels{,_avx,_avx2,_avx512}.cc), which I fixed by removing -march from /etc/makepkg.conf. But it compiled successfully with just -mtune=native instead (BTW, -march=X implies -mtune=X).

Also I tuned -DCUDA_ARCH_LIST='Common' to '7.5' because /opt/cuda/extras/demo_suite/deviceQuery says my GPU's "CUDA Capability version" is 7.5; this sped up compilation by ~30 minutes (Ryzen 5 2600), and saved 415 MiB of space.

if any parents of the build director has a space in it, fails with `/usr/bin/cc is not able to compile a simple test program.``

@acgtyrant: I'm not sure exactly why the tests fail, that's why they're disabled currently.

Hello, I am trying to determine whether I built ctranslate2 with cuDNN succesfully. However after I added -DBUILD_TESTS='ON' and uncommented the check function, a failure occured in check():

==> Starting check()...
/var/cache/private/pikaur/build/ctranslate2/PKGBUILD: line 125: ./tests/ctranslate2_test: No such file or directory

I appreciate your reading and help!
