Appendix 1: Uninstalling SPEC CPU 2017
Appendix 2: Useful Tips and Techniques
a. About Temporary Space (%temp%)
b. About Text Files and Windows/Unix Compatibility
This document describes how to install SPEC CPU®2017 on Microsoft Windows systems. (If you want to install under AIX,
Linux, mac OS, Solaris, or a similar system, you need the other
install guide.) SPEC CPU 2017 is a product of the SPEC® non-profit corporation
(about SPEC).
Reminder: SPEC benchmarks are licensed software.
- If you have a license, you may install on multiple systems within your institution.
- You may not share the software with the public.
Prepare for the Installation
Please follow these steps:
1. Review Prerequisites
Review the System Requirements.
Please particularly notice the requirements for:
- Physical memory
- Disk space
- Familiarity with basic commands (such as cd, dir, mkdir, findstr) and with
the Command Prompt (aka "Windows Command Processor", "cmd.exe", "MSDOS Window").
2. Open a Command Prompt Window
If you haven't already done so, start a Command Prompt Window now.
- For Windows 7 and earlier versions, use the search bar by clicking Start and typing "Command". The option for Command
Prompt will appear. Click on it.
- For Windows 8.x and Windows 10, from the desktop, right click on the start button and click on Command Prompt from the
pop-up menu.
Tip: you will probably find that the window is easier to use if you enlarge it.
- Click the upper left corner of the Command Prompt window.
- Select "Properties"
- Select "Layout" tab
- Increase the sizes. For example, you could use the values shown in the screen shot on the right, if you wish.

3. Verify the download (optional, recommended)
SPEC CPU is distributed as an ISO image. The file is large; therefore it is recommended (though not
required) that you verify that the download is correct before continuing.
If you have the sha512sum or sha256sum utility, use it to calculate a checksum for your
download. You might be able to access the utility by right-clicking on the ISO image. Compare the checksum to the posted
value at www.spec.org/cpu2017/releases.
| q. |
Is it ok to skip doing this
verification? I trust my network and I don't feel like hunting for a SHA-512 tool just now.
|
| a. |
It's always safer to verify downloads.
However, if you skip this step, you will probably be ok, because the installation procedure will verify the
individual files within the distribution. |
4. Mount the ISO image
There are two options:
- Attach the ISO file
- On Windows 8.x, Windows 10 and Windows Server 2012, the ISO file can be attached as a drive. To do this, open
Windows Explorer and navigate to the directory where the ISO file was downloaded. Then, either double-click on the ISO
file, or click on the ISO file and select "Mount".
- On Windows 7 and earlier versions, third party software is required. This document makes no recommendations about
particular add-ons.
Or, Burn a DVD
(optical device and blank DVD are required)
Windows 7 and later has built-in software to burn a DVD. Right click on the ISO image and select "Burn disk image".
(Older versions of Windows are not supported by SPEC CPU 2017.)
Regardless of the method you choose, note the drive letter where the ISO image or the DVD is attached.
Install it
5. Run install.bat
The following tasks must be done from the Command Prompt. Do not attempt to run
install.bat from Windows Explorer.
Change your directory to the mounted image. The following examples assume that the ISO image is mounted as
drive D:, so entering just the letter and a colon changes to the right location:
C:\> D:
D:\>
You're now ready to run the installer. The format for this command is
install.bat destination_drive:\destination_directory
For example, if your ISO image is drive
D:, and you want to install CPU 2017 on drive
C: in a folder named
cpu2017, you could type:
D:\> install.bat C:\cpu2017
5.a. Confirm Source and Destination
You should see a message similar to the following:
D:\>install.bat c:\cpu2017
Installing FROM source: E:\
Installing TO destination: c:\CPU2017
If the above is NOT correct, hit Control-C and run install.bat from
the correct benchmark tree with an argument designating the desired
destination directory.
Press any key to continue . . .
If you see a message similar to the above, just press return. If you see error messages, check to be sure that
you are in the correct directory and that %temp% is defined.
After you press return, the
installation begins.
5.b. The files are unpacked and tested
No more questions are asked. As it proceeds, the install procedure tells you what benchmarks are being unpacked.
Depending on the speed of the source and destination devices, this
may take several minutes.
Please be patient.
Unpacking CPU2017 base files (17.4 MB)
Unpacking 500.perlbench_r benchmark and data files (102.1 MB)
Unpacking 502.gcc_r benchmark and data files (256.3 MB)
Unpacking 503.bwaves_r benchmark and data files (0.2 MB)
.
. (lines omitted)
.
Unpacking 999.specrand_ir benchmark and data files (6.4 MB)
Checking the integrity of your source tree...
Depending on the amount of memory in the system and the speed of
the destination device, this may take several minutes.
Please be patient.
Unpacking tools binaries
Setting SPEC environment variable to c:\CPU2017\
Checking the integrity of your binary tools...
Testing the tools installation (this may take a minute)
Runspec tests completed successfully!
Installation completed!
c:\cpu2017>
Note that the testing phase (just above) may take more time than it does to do the unpacking.
This is normal.
At this point, the CPU 2017 installation will be using about 2.2 GB
of disk space on the destination drive.
6. Edit shrc.bat
Change your directory to the destination that has just been created, for example:
D:\> C:
C:\> cd cpu2017
C:\cpu2017\>
Read the comments in the file
shrc.bat
and make the appropriate edits for your compiler paths.
| q. |
When I try to edit shrc.bat, it looks like the lines are not correctly formatted. The text appears to
be all run together. For example, this can happen when using notepad. |
| a |
Try wordpad.
For more information, see the section below: About Text Files and Windows/Unix Compatibility.
|
You must uncomment one of two lines:
rem set SHRC_PRECOMPILED=yes
or
rem set SHRC_COMPILER_PATH_SET=yes
by removing "rem" from the beginning of the desired line.
If you uncomment the first line, you must have pre-compiled binaries for the benchmarks
If you uncomment the second line, you will have to follow the instructions (a few lines below further along in
shrc.bat) to set up the environment for your compiler, either (A) by calling a vendor-supplied batch setup
file or (B) by entering the path yourself:
It is usually better to call a vendor-supplied batch setup file, because the file may set additional needed
variables, such as INCLUDE and LIB. Examples of vendor files, such as iclvars,
vcvars, and vsvars, are in the comments within shrc.bat. Do not assume that any of those
examples will work on your system: you need to check first. The names and locations of these files change from compiler
to compiler, from version to version, and even from system to system (if you choose a non-default installation
directory).
If you enter a path directly:
- Be sure to set all needed variables. Check your compiler documentation.
- Be sure that you do not have any semi-colons (;) inside of quotes, as that may cause mysterious errors.
No matter how your path gets set, in general it is a good idea to understand what is in your path, and that you
have only what you truly need. If you have non-standard versions of commonly used utilities in your path, you may avoid
unpleasant surprises by taking them out. By default, shrc.bat will print the path after it is done. If you would
prefer that it not do so, you can set SHRC_QUIET=yes in your environment.
Test your installed copy
From this point forward, we are testing basic capabilities of the installed version of SPEC CPU 2017, including
compiling benchmarks and running them.
If you prefer to skip this part, perhaps because someone else has given you pre-compiled binaries, please note that you
remain responsible for compliance with SPEC's Fair Use rule
and the CPU 2017 run rules.
7. Use your shrc.bat
Set the environment, using your edited shrc. For example:
C:\cpu2017> shrc.bat
8. Select a config file and try to build one benchmark
Find a Config File:
You will need to select a config file. Config files contain details such as portability and optimization options. If you
are a beginner, you will probably start with an existing config file. You can find one:
On your installed copy of SPEC CPU 2017:
$SPEC/config/Example* (Unix) or
%SPEC%\config\Example* (Windows)
- At www.spec.org/cpu2017/results. Look for a
system similar to yours, click the 'config' link.
- Or, write your own.
Name it: Copy your selection to a new file the config file to the config directory.
Give it a name that does not use blanks. Hint: make the name something useful to *you*, for example:
%SPEC%\config\Rahuls_first_test.cfg
Edit the label: Usually it is a good idea to edit the file and change the line
that says:
label = something
or if there is no such line, then add one at the top. The label is an arbitrary tag that is added to your binaries and directories, which can come in very handy when you need
to (for example) find your run directories, analyze a problem, and clean disk space. As with the config file name, make it
something meaningful to *you*. No blanks are allowed.
Other Edits:
- Look for any locations marked EDIT and make changes as needed.
- Look for paths and adjust if needed. Example: the config file mentions a path for
.../Lib/10.0.14393.0 but your system uses
.../Lib/10.0.14394.1
Look for any commands in the config file, and verify that they will not cause surprises.
Warning: SPEC CPU config files can execute arbitrary
shell commands.
Read a config file before using it.
Don't be root.
Don't run as Administrator.
Turn privileges off.
Select a benchmark to try first. Begin with a benchmark that compiles quickly, such as
505.mcf_r or 508.namd_r for SPECrate®; or 619.lbm_s for SPECspeed®.
Example: Here, the user starts with a config file for Intel C/C++ and Fortran 17.0 Update 1 Compilers
for Windows, edits it, and tries 508.namd_r.
C:\cpu2017> cd %SPEC%\config
C:\cpu2017> copy Example-ic17.0u1-win-rate.cfg try.cfg
.
. [edit try.cfg for compiler path]

If
the
above
succeeds |
You have established that SPEC CPU 2017 is installed and the tools can use
your config file to find a "C" compiler.
Let us take a brief look at what the above command did:
C:\cpu2017> cd %SPEC%\benchspec\CPU\508.namd_r\exe
C:\cpu2017\benchspec\CPU\508.namd_r\exe>dir
namd_r_base.Example-ic17.0u1-win-rate
C:\cpu2017\benchspec\CPU\508.namd_r\exe>cd %SPEC%\result
C:\cpu2017\result> dir
CPU2017.001.log lock.CPU2017
Note that:
- An executable file has been created, using a label that was
specified by the config file (Example-ic17.0u1-win-rate) The label is just an
arbitrary tag that you can use to help you keep track of your builds.
- A log file is available: CPU2017.001.log
|
If
the
above
fails |
Usually, failures happen if you start with a config file that is not intended for your operating
system and compiler (About Config Files),
or if you have not installed the compiler,
or have not edited the config file to point to the compiler location.
If a file is mentioned with more information, please carefully examine that file (e.g. benchspec\CPU2017\nnn.mumble\build_base_mumble.0000\mumble.err)
You can use locate the log file and the
build directory, and useful files within the build, using commands similar to these:
C:\cpu2017> cd %SPEC%\result
C:\cpu2017\result> dir *log
CPU2017.001.log
C:\cpu2017\result> cd %SPEC%\benchspec\CPU\505.mcf_r\build

9. Try compiling an entire suite, and run the test workload
SPEC CPU 2017 contains 43 benchmarks which are
divided into 4 suites:
- intrate
- intspeed
- fprate
- fpspeed
Let's pick a suite and build all the benchmarks in that suite. The command below,

Note above that compiling the SPECrate2017 Floating Point benchmarks and running the brief test workload took about 3
hours (10532 seconds). Your time may be considerably different (faster or slower), for example when
using other compilers or building other suites (recall that there are 4 suites in CPU 2017: intrate, fprate, intspeed,

10. Try a full (reportable) run
If everything has worked up to this point, you may wish to start a full run, perhaps leaving your computer to
run overnight. The extended test will demand significant hardware resources from your machine (System Requirements)
In the example below, a reportable run is
requested, using 10 copies of the benchmarks:
c:\CPU2017>runcpu --config=try --reportable --copies=10 fprate

The run completed successfully. On this particular (year 2016) hardware system, a 10-copy
reportable fprate run, using base-only
tuning, required about 10 hours (35529 seconds). Much more time would be
needed if the run used both base and peak tuning, or used more copies, or
asked for additional suites (intrate, intspeed, or fpspeed).
Appendix 1: Uninstalling SPEC CPU 2017
At this time, SPEC does not provide an uninstall utility for SPEC CPU 2017. Confusingly, there is a file named uninstall.sh in the top directory, but it does not remove the whole product; it
only removes the SPEC tool set, and does not affect the benchmarks (which consume the bulk of the disk space).
To remove SPEC CPU 2017 on Windows systems, select the top directory in Windows Explorer and delete it.
To remove SPEC CPU 2017 on Unix systems, use rm -Rf on the directory where you installed the
suite, for example:
rm -Rf /home/cs3000/saturos/spec/cpu2017
If you have been using the output_root feature, you
will have to track those down separately. Therefore, prior to removing the tree, you might
want to look for mentions of output root, for example:
Windows:
cd %SPEC%\config
findstr output_root *cfg
Unix:
cd $SPEC/config
grep output_root *cfg
Note: instead of deleting the entire directory tree, some users find it useful to keep the
config and result subdirectories, while deleting everything else.
Appendix 2: Useful Tips and Techniques
Appendix 2.a. About Temporary Space (%temp)
It has occasionally been reported that installation attempts fail if there is not a directory that can be used
to hold temporary files. To check this point, print the %temp% environment variable, and try writing a small file
to it, like this:
C:\Users\kumar> echo %temp%
C:\Users\kumar\AppData\Local\Temp
C:\Users\kumar> echo "hi" > %temp%\test-hi.txt
C:\Users\kumar> type %temp%\test-hi.txt
"hi"
C:\Users\kumar> del %temp%\test-hi.txt
If %temp% is not set, the first echo command above will just print:
%temp%
If %temp% is set to a directory that is not writeable, the second command will print:
Access is denied
If either of these
happen, you should set it to the full path (with drive letter) of a directory that can be used as scratch space. For
example, if Kumaran would like to use a temporary directory underneath his directory on drive K:, he could type:
C:\> set temp=K:\KUMARAN\TEMP
Appendix 2.b. About Text Files and Windows/Unix Compatibility
There are many files in the SPEC CPU 2017 distribution that contain text. Unfortunately, Unix systems and Windows
systems have different conventions for storing text files. Sometimes, a text file formatted for Windows will appear on Unix
as if it has extra Control-M characters. Sometimes, a text file formatted for Unix will appear on Windows as if all the
lines were joined together.
There are at least three ways for Windows users to correctly view and edit text files that originated on a Unix
system:
Use WordPad. WordPad can commonly be found by
Start-->All Programs-->Accessories-->WordPad
Use the MS-DOS Editor. Open a Command Prompt and type "Edit". This alternative does not work on 64-bit Windows
systems. The program only recognizes files with 8 characters or fewer, a dot, and then 3 characters or fewer. If you
are trying to use it with a longer file name, you can discover that there is an "8 dot 3" synonym for it by typing:
"dir /x".
Use the editor "vi". Although vi originated on Unix systems, there are also Windows versions. "UNIX Compatibility"
products for Windows often include a version of vi, and there are independently-distributed versions, such as "Vi IMproved"
(at http://www.vim.org/).
Note that SPEC does not "endorse" any of these solutions, although it is hoped that at least one of them will be
useful for you.
