80 <a name="index-installation"></a>
81
82 <p>This chapter describes the installation and customization of FFTW, the
83 latest version of which may be downloaded from
84 <a href="http://www.fftw.org">the FFTW home page</a>.
85 </p>
86 <p>In principle, FFTW should work on any system with an ANSI C compiler
87 (<code>gcc</code> is fine). However, planner time is drastically reduced if
88 FFTW can exploit a hardware cycle counter; FFTW comes with cycle-counter
89 support for all modern general-purpose CPUs, but you may need to add a
90 couple of lines of code if your compiler is not yet supported
91 (see <a href="Cycle-Counters.html#Cycle-Counters">Cycle Counters</a>). (On Unix, there will be a warning at the end
92 of the <code>configure</code> output if no cycle counter is found.)

96 </p>
97
98 <p>Installation of FFTW is simplest if you have a Unix or a GNU system,
99 such as GNU/Linux, and we describe this case in the first section below,
100 including the use of special configuration options to e.g. install
101 different precisions or exploit optimizations for particular
102 architectures (e.g. SIMD). Compilation on non-Unix systems is a more
103 manual process, but we outline the procedure in the second section. It
104 is also likely that pre-compiled binaries will be available for popular
105 systems.
106 </p>
107 <p>Finally, we describe how you can customize FFTW for particular needs by
108 generating <em>codelets</em> for fast transforms of sizes not supported
109 efficiently by the standard FFTW distribution.
