libtensorflow-cpu-darwin-arm64

Tensorflow C binaries compiled for Mac M1 computers (arm64 chip).

The libraries were compiled with all flags disabled:

./configure

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

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

Do you wish to download a fresh release of clang? (Experimental) [y/N]: N
Clang will not be downloaded.

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

Would you like to interactively configure ./WORKSPACE for Android builds? [y/N]: N
Not configuring the WORKSPACE for Android builds.

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

Build command:

bazel build --config=macos_arm64 --config=noaws --config=nogcp --config=nohdfs --config=nonccl //tensorflow/tools/lib_package:libtensorflow

How to build Tensorflow binaries from source?

• Install Bazelisk

brew install bazelisk

• Create a virtual environment with Python 3.9, using virtualenvwrapper:
  • Install Python 3.9:

  wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.9.13/python-3.9.13-macosx10.9.pkg
  sudo installer -pkg python-3.9.13-macosx10.9.pkg -target /
  rm python-3.9.13-macosx10.9.pkg
  

  • Install virtualenvwrapper:

  pip install virtualenvwrapper
  mkdir -p $HOME/.virtualenvs
  echo 'export WORKON_HOME=~/virtualenvs' >> ~/.zshrc # or ./bashrc
  echo 'export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_VIRTUALENV=$(which virtualenv)' >> ~/.zshrc
  echo 'export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=$(which python3.9)' >> ~/.zshrc
  echo 'source $(which virtualenvwrapper.sh)' >> ~/.zshrc
  source ~/.zshrc
  

  • Create a virtual environment using Python 3.9:

  mkvirtualenv tf-build --python=$(which python3.9)
  workon tf-build
  python -m pip install --upgrade pip
  

• Install Tensorflow dependencies:

pip install -U --user pip numpy wheel packaging requests opt_einsum
pip install -U --user keras_preprocessing --no-deps

• Clone repo:

git clone [email protected]:tensorflow/tensorflow.git
cd tensorflow
git checkout v${VERSION_NUMBER} #example v2.9.0

• Configure and build:

./configure
bazel build --config=macos_arm64 --config=noaws --config=nogcp --config=nohdfs --config=nonccl //tensorflow/tools/lib_package:libtensorflow

• Rename and copy the tar file:

cp bazel-bin/tensorflow/tools/lib_package/libtensorflow.tar.gz ./libtensorflow-cpu-darwin-arm64-2.9.0.tar.gz
