FFTW Interface Support

Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL)
 offers two collections of wrappers for the FFTW interface (www.fftw.org). The wrappers are the superstructure of FFTW to be used for calling the
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
 Fourier transform functions. These collections correspond to the FFTW versions 2.x and 3.x and the
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
 versions 7.0 and later.
These wrappers enable using
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
 Fourier transforms to improve the performance of programs that use FFTW without changing the program source code. See the "
FFTW Interface to
Intel® oneAPI
 Math Kernel Library
" appendix in the
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
 Developer Reference
 for details on the use of the wrappers.
For ease of use, the FFTW3 interface is also integrated in
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library
.
The FFTW2 and FFTW3 interfaces are not compatible with each other. Avoid linking to both of them. If you must do so, first modify the wrapper source code for FFTW2:
  1. Change every instance of
    fftw_destroy_plan
     in the
    fftw2xc
     interface to
    fftw2_destroy_plan
    .
  2. Change all the corresponding file names accordingly.
  3. Rebuild the pertinent libraries.
