Not sure why the lw_alloc.h should be required in the main header likwid.h.

[nicolas-bouton]

First, I apologize for the lack of information about this patch.

The issue I encountered during compilation of the Fortran interface concerned the implicit declaration of the function lw_malloc() in the likwid_markerwritefile_() function in src/likwid_f90_interface.c.

You resolved this issue in commit 55575b4 by including the lw_alloc.h header in src/likwid_f90_interface.c instead of the main header, likwid.h.

When I created this patch, I chose to include lw_alloc.h in the main header file because src/likwid_f90_interface.c includes only the main header while using other functions, such as those provided by the LIKWID marker API.

Could you please help me understand the purpose of the main header, likwid.h, so I can avoid similar confusion in the future?

When installing LIKWID, it copies only likwid.h and likwid-marker.h to the include folder. If you add lw_alloc.h to likwid.h, it needs to be installed as well. We had that with the bstrlib.h for some time and I was not happy with it.

Thanks for the explanation!

I am closing the PR.
