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

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