System information

OS - High Sierra 10.13
Tensorflow - 1.4
Xcode command line tools - 8.2 (Download from here: Xcode - Support - Apple Developer & Switch to different clang version: sudo xcode-select --switch/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools & check version: clang -v)
Cmake - 3.7
Bazel - 0.7.0
CUDA - 9
cuDNN - 7

Requirements

sudo pip install six numpy wheel
brew install coreutils

Step-by-step guide

Remove all align(sizeof(T)) from following files:

tensorflow/core/kernels/depthwise_conv_op_gpu.cu.cc
tensorflow/core/kernels/split_lib_gpu.cu.cc
tensorflow/core/kernels/concat_lib_gpu.impl.cu.cc

For example, extern shared __align(sizeof(T))__ unsigned char smem[]; => extern shared unsigned char smem[];

Steps:

Disable SIP (in recovery mode enter command: csrutil disable)

./configure (Find CUDA compute value from https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus)

Smit-Shilu:tensorflow-build smitshilu$ ./configure
You have bazel 0.7.0-homebrew installed.
Please specify the location of python. [Default is /Users/smitshilu/anaconda3/bin/python]:

Found possible Python library paths:
  /Users/smitshilu/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages
Please input the desired Python library path to use.  Default is [/Users/smitshilu/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages]

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with Google Cloud Platform support? [Y/n]: n
No Google Cloud Platform support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

No Hadoop File System support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with Amazon S3 File System support? [Y/n]: n
No Amazon S3 File System support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with XLA JIT support? [y/N]: n
No XLA JIT support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with GDR support? [y/N]: n

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with OpenCL support? [y/N]: n
No OpenCL support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with CUDA support? [y/N]: y
CUDA support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

Please specify the CUDA SDK version you want to use, e.g. 7.0. [Leave empty to default to CUDA 8.0]: 9.0

Please specify the location where CUDA 9.0 toolkit is installed. Refer to README.md for more details. [Default is /usr/local/cuda]:

Please specify the cuDNN version you want to use. [Leave empty to default to cuDNN 6.0]: 7

Please specify the location where cuDNN 7 library is installed. Refer to README.md for more details. [Default is /usr/local/cuda]:

Please specify a list of comma-separated Cuda compute capabilities you want to build with.
You can find the compute capability of your device at: https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus.
Please note that each additional compute capability significantly increases your build time and binary size. [Default is: 3.5,5.2]6.1

Do you want to use clang as CUDA compiler? [y/N]:
nvcc will be used as CUDA compiler.

Please specify which gcc should be used by nvcc as the host compiler. [Default is /usr/bin/gcc]:

Do you wish to build TensorFlow with MPI support? [y/N]:
No MPI support will be enabled for TensorFlow.

Please specify optimization flags to use during compilation when bazel option "--config=opt" is specified [Default is -march=native]:

Add "--config=mkl" to your bazel command to build with MKL support.
Please note that MKL on MacOS or windows is still not supported.
If you would like to use a local MKL instead of downloading, please set the environment variable "TF_MKL_ROOT" every time before build.
Configuration finished

Add following paths:
- export CUDA_HOME=/usr/local/cuda
- export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/USERNAME/lib:/usr/local/cuda/lib:/usr/local/cuda/extras/CUPTI/lib (Replace USERNAME with your machine username)
- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
- export PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:$PATH

Start build

bazel build --config=cuda --config=opt --action_env PATH --action_env LD_LIBRARY_PATH --action_env DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package

Generate a wheel for installation

bazel-bin/tensorflow/tools/pip_package/build_pip_package /tmp/tensorflow_pkg

Install tensorflow wheel

sudo pip install /tmp/tensorflow_pkg/tensorflow-1.4.0rc1-cp36-cp36m-macosx_10_7_x86_64.whl (File name depends on tensorflow version and python version)

@anubhavjaiswal03 Install bazel 0.7 (Compile from the bazel release and uninstall the homebrew version because homebrew forces you to use the latest xcode and there isn't an official .7 on tap via homebrew, if there was then you could just run sudo xcode-select --switch /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/ to switch back to the current version of xcode)

@smitshilu
thanks

I got tensorflow compiled successfully but getting error while generating a wheel for installation.

I got tensorflow compiled successfully but getting no output when using it.

Python 3.6.3 (default, Jan 31 2018, 13:53:45) 
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 9.0.0 (clang-900.0.39.2)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import tensorflow as tf
>>> tf.__version__
'1.5.0-rc0'
>>> session = tf.Session()

The last line won't be executed. No output, no new interpreter line... Any ideas?

Update: It was my own fault. Something went wrong with my CUDA installation.

I wrote a short blog post about my successful Tensorflow 1.6-rc1 build. https://byai.io/howto-tensorflow-1-6-on-mac-with-gpu-acceleration/

@anubhavjaiswal03 @MichaelScript i was unable to install bazel 0.7. For me the trick was to comment out line 69 in .../external/io_bazel_rules_closure/closure/repositories.bzl: # _check_bazel_version("Closure Rules", "0.4.5")

Running in new error:

env: python: No such file or directory
Target //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package failed to build

python is definitely within the PATH and can also be called with /usr/bin/env python.
Looks like this is related: tensorflow/tensorflow#15618
Any ideas?

Try running ./configure again and set python environment variables properly

vihanb commented Jun 7, 2018

I'm getting error:

ERROR: Inconsistent crosstool configuration; no toolchain corresponding to 'local_darwin' found for cpu 'darwin'

however I have installed brew install gcc@7 and ln -s /usr/local/bin/gcc-7 /usr/bin/gcc so not sure why still using clang instead of GCC, perhaps another issue?

swathishesh19 commented Jun 14, 2018

@smitshilu.. thank you!
Will this fix also work for AMD GPUs? or do I have to switch to an NVIDIA GPU

Author

smitshilu commented Jun 18, 2018

@swathishesh19 it will work with NVIDIA only. For now tensorflow supports officially NVIDIA GPUs only

ghost commented Jul 24, 2019

@coocoorhin what path are you passing while you are running ./configuration? If you check in this line
Please specify the location where CUDA 9.0 toolkit is installed. Refer to README.md for more details. [Default is /usr/local/cuda]:
Defult path is /usr/local/cuda so export the same path even default installation path is different

i did just as he did, instead of leaving default i changed it to Developers.......
