-### BLAS and LAPACK Migration
+### BLAS and LAPACK

-There is a long-standing BLAS and LAPACK stack incompatibility between the Science Overlay and the Base Gentoo Overlay.
-A fix [is being considered](https://github.com/gentoo/sci/issues/805), bit is still not scheduled for implementation.
-In the mean time, the most automated and up-to-date solution (building on [the original one](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User_talk:Houseofsuns)) is to run (as root, and after having installed the overlay):
-
-```
-cd ${EPREFIX}/var/lib/overlays/science/scripts
-./lapack-migration.sh
-```
+[The BLAS and LAPACK switching framework](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Blas-lapack-switch)
+in ::gentoo has been implemented. The Science overlay will no longer
+carry blas and lapack ebuilds.

-<title>Introduction</title>
-<section>

-
-<p>
-The Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines (BLAS) and Linear Algebra PACKage (LAPACK)
-are well designed linear algebra software libraries developed by the
-High Performance Computing (HPC) community. BLAS
-implements dense matrix and vectors products, while LAPACK provides routines for 
-solving systems of linear equations. Both are widely used in
-many scientific applications and it is, therefore, important to 
-have efficient implementations available.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Originally written in FORTRAN 77, a number of additional language
-wrappers have been developed for languages like C, C++, FORTRAN 95, and others.
-The following legacy libraries are available via the reference ebuilds:
-</p>
-
-<ul>
-  <li>
-    <uri link="http://netlib.org/blas">BLAS</uri>: FORTRAN 77 implementation of
-    BLAS
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    <uri link="http://netlib.org/blas">CBLAS</uri>: C implementation of BLAS
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    <uri link="http://netlib.org/lapack">LAPACK</uri>: FORTRAN 77 implementation
-    of LAPACK
-  </li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>
-In addition, Gentoo provides a number of optimized BLAS and LAPACK implementations
-that will be described below. Different implementations are bundled together with
-Gentoo's <c>eselect</c> system and the widely used <c>pkg-config</c> tool.
-</p>
-
-<p> It is important to note that if you require, e.g., a well performing 
-BLAS implementation, simply emerging X over Y often is not enough. Rather, you will have
-to carefully benchmark your applications since performance may depend 
-on many factors,
-such as hardware or network.
-If you are simply looking for a well performing and well tested
-implementation, the reference ebuilds will likely be your best choice.

-<p>
-If best possible performance is not of paramount importance for you 
-and you simply
-need BLAS and/or LAPACK, just emerge the virtual packages:
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Installing">
-# <i>emerge blas cblas lapack</i>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-These will install the reference legacy	packages from
-<uri>http://netlib.org</uri>. They are well tested, easy to debug
-implementations. They should satisfy most users; if they're all you need, you're
-done reading.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-However, if:
-</p>
-
-<ul>
-  <li>BLAS/LAPACK are critical for the speed of your applications</li>
-  <li>you absolutely need to build the fastest computer</li>
-  <li>you want to help Gentoo sci project to improve their packages</li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>
-... then read on, and be sure to file bugs both to Gentoo and upstream.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-There is a number of optimized implementations of these libraries in the Portage
-tree:
-</p>
-
-<ul>
-  <li>
-   <uri link="http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net">ATLAS</uri>: Automatically
-   Tuned Linear Algebra Software is an open-source package that empirically
-   tunes the library to the machine it is being compiled on. It provides BLAS
-   (FORTRAN 77 and C), and LAPACK implementations on various architectures.
-  </li>
-  <li>
-   <uri
-   link="http://www.tacc.utexas.edu/resources/software/software.php">GotoBLAS</uri>:
-   Goto BLAS provide open-source, free for academic use, hand-coded
-   machine language, processor optimized versions of the FORTRAN 77 BLAS
-   routines. Claims to be the fastest BLAS.
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    <uri link="http://developer.intel.com/software/products/mkl/">MKL</uri>:
-    Intel® Math Kernel Library is a closed-source but free package for
-    non-commercial use containing BLAS (FORTRAN 77 and C), LAPACK optimized for
-    Intel® based architectures: x86, amd64 and ia64.
-  </li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>
-Usually performance gain is noticeable mainly with BLAS, since LAPACK routines
-depend on BLAS kernels.

-<title>Compiling and linking with installed libraries</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-We took great care to make sure that each package provides consistent pkg-config files.
-Hence, compiling and linking with BLAS/LAPACK should be simple and straightforward:
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Compiling and linking BLAS/LAPACK">
-# <i>pkg-config --libs blas</i>    <comment>(To link with FORTRAN 77 BLAS library)</comment>
-# <i>pkg-config --cflags cblas</i> <comment>(To compile against C BLAS library)</comment>
-# <i>pkg-config --libs cblas</i>   <comment>(To link with C BLAS library)</comment>
-# <i>pkg-config --libs lapack</i>  <comment>(To link with FORTRAN 77 LAPACK library)</comment>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-<c>pkg-config</c> files are available for whichever implementation you select with <c>eselect</c>.
-More information on using <c>pkg-config</c> can be obtained with <c>man pkg-config</c>.

-<title>Choosing libraries</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-You can easily switch BLAS, CBLAS and LAPACK implementations with
-<c>eselect</c>. At this point, you probably have <c>eselect-blas</c>,
-<c>eselect-cblas</c> and <c>eselect-lapack</c> installed. If you do not,
-install them now! Using eselect, you can view which implementations of CBLAS
-are available.
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Viewing available implementations">
-# <i>eselect cblas list</i>
-Installed CBLAS for library directory lib64
-[1]   atlas
-[2]   atlas-threads
-[3]   gsl
-[4]   mkl-threads *
-[5]   reference
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-The implementation marked with an asterisk (*) is the currently
-selected implementation. To switch implementations, run:
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Switching to the ATLAS implementation of LAPACK">
-# <i>eselect lapack set atlas</i>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-To learn more about the <c>eselect</c> tool, visit the 
-<uri link="http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/eselect/user-guide.xml">eselect guide</uri>
-</p>
-
-<p>
-When selecting blas, cblas or lapack profiles try to avoid mixing
-different implementations since we don't have any mechanism to enforce
-reasonable profiles. However, here is a list of well performing
-profile combinations that have been used successfully in the past:
-</p>
-<ul>
-  <li> Most CPUs:
-    <ul>
-      <li>blas,cblas: atlas (or atlas-threads with multi-processor)</li>
-      <li>lapack:atlas</li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-  <li> Most CPUs:
-    <ul>
-      <li>blas: goto </li>

-<section>
-<title>Choosing a compiler</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-Most of the libraries can compile with both the GNU compiler collection and the
-Intel® compilers on the x86, amd64 and ia64 architectures. By default, you are
-probably using <c>gcc</c>. You can also compile the <c>*-reference</c> packages
-with <c>ifort</c> and <c>icc</c>. To do this, you need to define the F77
-environment variable and don't forget the FFLAGS.
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Using non-GCC compilers">
-# <i>F77=ifort FFLAGS="-O2 -mp" emerge blas-reference</i>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-Depending on your hardware, a small performance gain can be noticed thanks to
-vectorization. The <c>-mp</c> flag maintains floating-point precision, since by
-default ifort is pretty aggressive on floating point arithmetic, and we are
-actually compiling a math package. Try <c>man ifort</c> to see additional flags
-to fit your hardware.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Some of the implementations let you specify the Intel® C compiler as
-well. Please beware that not all libraries compile with all
-combinations.  You should receive an error during the emerge in case you have
-chosen an incompatible combination.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-As usual for Gentoo, there are many combinations of USE flags and
-compilers with which you could compile a package. Unfortunately
-switching compilers between BLAS and LAPACK might not be always
-compatible. For example: 
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Incompatible combinations">
-# <i>F77=gfortran FFLAGS="-O2" emerge lapack-reference</i>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-This will most likely break things or not even compile.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-Try to be consistent in your choice. Stay with the GCC most of the time will
-avoid you some trouble, unless you want to use the MKL, in which case the Intel®
-C and FORTRAN compilers make a good combination.
-</p>
-
-</body>
-</section>
-<section>
-<title>Documentation</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-If you need BLAS or LAPACK to develop your own programs, the documentation
-becomes pretty handy. Setting the USE="doc" flag for the corresponding BLAS or
-LAPACK package will install man pages and quick reference sheets from the
-<c>app-doc/blas-docs</c> and <c>app-doc/lapack-docs</c> packages. They are
-standard and valid for all implementations. For optimized packages, the
-USE="doc" flags will usually install extra doc in PDF or HTML format.

-<title>Providing new implementations</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-The Portage tree contains many ebuilds that depend on the BLAS/CBLAS/LAPACK
-libraries. As there is more than one possible implementation, the Gentoo
-Scientific Project reorganized all the packages to provide <c>virtual/blas</c>,
-<c>virtual/cblas</c>, and <c>virtual/lapack</c>. All ebuilds using BLAS should
-depend on this virtual package, unless it is explicitly known to break with
-different BLAS implementations.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-To work with Gentoo's configuration tools
-<c>app-admin/eselect-{blas,cblas,lapack}</c>, and the virtual, every ebuild that
-installs a BLAS implementation must fulfill following requirements:
-</p>
-
-<ol>
-  <li>
-    The ebuild must install an eselect file for each profile it provides. The
-    libraries should link to the ones in <path>/usr/$(get_libdir)</path>
-    directories and the include files in <path>/usr/include</path>:
-    <ul>
-      <li>
-	<path>libblas.so[.0]</path> - Shared object for FORTRAN BLAS
-	applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>libblas.a</path> - Static library for FORTRAN BLAS applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>libcblas.so[.0]</path> - Shared object for C/C++ CBLAS applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>libcblas.a</path> - Static library for C/C++ CBLAS applications
-      </li>
-      <li><path>cblas.h</path> - Include header for C/C++ applications</li>
-      <li>
-        <path>liblapack.so[.0]</path> - Shared object for FORTRAN LAPACK
-	applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>liblapack.a</path> - Static library for FORTRAN LAPACK applications
-      </li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    The ebuild must install a <path>blas.pc</path>, <path>cblas.pc</path> and/or
-    <path>lapack.pc</path> pkg-config file and therefore RDEPEND on
-    <c>dev-util/pkgconfig</c>.  They should also be included in the eselect
-    files, and link to the <path>/usr/$(get_libdir)/pkgconfig</path> directory:
-    <ul>
-      <li><path>blas.pc</path> - BLAS pkg-config file</li>
-      <li><path>cblas.pc</path> - CBLAS pkg-config file</li>
-      <li><path>lapack.pc</path> - LAPACK pkg-config file</li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-  <li>Be included in the virtual package as a possible provider:
-    <ul>
-      <li><c>virtual/blas</c> - BLAS virtual package</li>
-      <li><c>virtual/cblas</c> - CBLAS virtual package</li>
-      <li><c>virtual/lapack</c> - LAPACK virtual package</li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-</ol>
- 
-<p>
-The easiest way of understanding all this is probably getting inspiration from
-one of the available packages.  Currently the Portage tree provide the following
-virtuals:
-</p>

-<title>Packages with BLAS/LAPACK dependencies</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-Simply use <c>virtual/{blas,cblas,lapack}</c> as a [R]DEPEND. To build some
-packages, you might need to use the pkg-config tool. If you are lucky, the
-package uses autotools together with common BLAS and LAPACK M4 macros.In this
-case, the configuration step becomes simple. For example:
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Sample package configuration">
-<keyword>econf</keyword> --with-blas="<var>$(pkg-config --libs blas)</var>"
-</pre>
-
-<impo>
-Don't forget to add <c>dev-util/pkgconfig</c> in DEPEND.

-  We took great care to make sure that each package provides
-  consistent pkg-config files generated by us.
-  Compiling and linking becomes straightforward:

-</pre>
-
-<p>
-  <c>pkg-config</c> files are available for all implementations and
-  various alternatives within implementations. The default names of
-  the implementations are: blas, cblas, lapack, lapacke, blacs and
-  scalapack, and they can be chosen with <c>eselect</c>. You can also always compile or link

-<title>Choosing a compiler</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-  All the above libraries have been tested with the GNU compiler
-  collections (gcc, gfortran).
-  There are many available C compilers and a few FORTRAN (ifort,
-  Open64) compilers on Gentoo and many other FORTRAN compilers outside
-  of Gentoo ().
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Installing BLAS with the Intel FORTRAN compiler">
-# <i>F77=ifort FFLAGS="-O2 -mp1" emerge blas-reference</i>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-  Depending on your hardware, a small performance gain can be noticed thanks to
-  vectorization. The <c>-mp</c> flag maintains floating-point precision, since by
-  default ifort is pretty aggressive on floating point arithmetic, and we are
-  actually compiling a math package. Try <c>man ifort</c> to see additional flags
-  to fit your hardware.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-  Some of the implementations let you specify the Intel® C compiler as
-  well. Please beware that not all libraries compile with all
-  combinations.  You should receive an error during the emerge in case you have
-  chosen an incompatible combination.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-  As usual for Gentoo, there are many combinations of USE flags and
-  compilers with which you could compile a package. Unfortunately
-  switching compilers between BLAS and LAPACK might not be always
-  compatible. For example: 
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Looking for trouble combinations">
-# <i>FC=gfortran FFLAGS="-O2" emerge lapack-reference</i>
-</pre>
-
-<p>
-  This will most likely break things or not even compile.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-  Try to be consistent in your choice. Stay with the GCC most of the time will
-  avoid you some trouble, unless you want to use the MKL, in which case the Intel
-  compilers make a good combination.
-</p>
-
-</body>
-</section>
-<section>
-<title>Documentation</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-  If you need BLAS or LAPACK to develop your own programs, the documentation
-  becomes pretty handy. Setting the USE="doc" flag for the corresponding BLAS or
-  LAPACK package will install man pages and quick reference sheets from the
-  <c>app-doc/blas-docs</c> and <c>app-doc/lapack-docs</c> packages. They are
-  standard and valid for all implementations. For optimized packages, the
-  USE="doc" flags will usually install extra doc in PDF or HTML format.

-<title>Packages with BLAS/LAPACK dependencies</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-  You need two things:
-  set [R]DEPEND to <c>virtual/<imp></c>. To build some
-  packages, you m need to use the pkg-config tool. If you are lucky, the
-  package uses autotools together with the autoconf <>AX_BLAS and <>AX_LAPACK M4
-  macros. In this case, the configuration step becomes simple. For example:
-</p>
-
-<pre caption="Sample package configuration with autotools">
-<keyword>econf</keyword> --with-blas="<var>$(pkg-config --libs blas)</var>"

-<title>Providing new implementations</title>
-<body>
-
-<p>
-  The Portage tree contains many ebuilds that depend on the
-  BLAS/CBLAS/LAPACK/BLACS/ScaLAPACK libraries. As there is more than
-  one possible implementation, the Gentoo Science Project
-  reorganized all the packages to provide <c>virtual</c>. All ebuilds using
-  should depend on this virtual package, unless it is explicitly
-  known to break with a specific implementation.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-  To work with Gentoo's configuration tools
-  <c>app-admin/eselect-{blas,cblas,lapack}</c>, and the virtual, every ebuild that
-  installs a BLAS implementation must fulfill following requirements:
-</p>
-
-<ol>
-<li>
-  The ebuild must install an eselect file for each profile it provides. The
-  libraries should link to the ones in <path>/usr/$(get_libdir)</path>
-  directories and the include files in <path>/usr/include</path>:
- <ul>
-      <li>
-	<path>libblas.so[.0]</path> - Shared object for FORTRAN BLAS
-	applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>libblas.a</path> - Static library for FORTRAN BLAS applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>libcblas.so[.0]</path> - Shared object for C/C++ CBLAS applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>libcblas.a</path> - Static library for C/C++ CBLAS applications
-      </li>
-      <li><path>cblas.h</path> - Include header for C/C++ applications</li>
-      <li>
-        <path>liblapack.so[.0]</path> - Shared object for FORTRAN LAPACK
-	applications
-      </li>
-      <li>
-        <path>liblapack.a</path> - Static library for FORTRAN LAPACK applications
-      </li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-  <li>
-    The ebuild must install a <path>blas.pc</path>, <path>cblas.pc</path> and/or
-    <path>lapack.pc</path> pkg-config file and therefore RDEPEND on
-    <c>dev-util/pkgconfig</c>.  They should also be included in the eselect
-    files, and link to the <path>/usr/$(get_libdir)/pkgconfig</path> directory:
-    <ul>
-      <li><path>blas.pc</path> - BLAS pkg-config file</li>
-      <li><path>cblas.pc</path> - CBLAS pkg-config file</li>
-      <li><path>lapack.pc</path> - LAPACK pkg-config file</li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-  <li>Be included in the virtual package as a possible provider:
-    <ul>
-      <li><c>virtual/blas</c> - BLAS virtual package</li>
-      <li><c>virtual/cblas</c> - CBLAS virtual package</li>
-      <li><c>virtual/lapack</c> - LAPACK virtual package</li>
-    </ul>
-  </li>
-</ol>
- 
-<p>
-  The easiest way of understanding all this is probably getting inspiration from
-  one of the available packages. Currently the Portage tree provide the following
-  virtual packages:
-</p>
-
-<table>
-<tr>
-  <th>Package name</th>

-The BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) are high quality "building
-block" routines for performing basic vector and matrix operations. Level 1
-BLAS do vector-vector operations, Level 2 BLAS do matrix-vector operations,
-and Level 3 BLAS do matrix-matrix operations. Because the BLAS are
-efficient, portable, and widely available, they're commonly used in the
-development of high quality linear algebra software, LAPACK for
-example. This packages implements the reference FORTRAN 77 library.
