Unresolved reference to dgemm when using OpenBLAS - fortran

Question

I have been trying for some time to compile and link the OpenBLAS lib to multiply to matrices together using dgemm. I finally was able to compile the OpenBLAS after installing MSYS2 and the mingw64 packages from MSYS2 using pacman. My intention is to use the OpenBLAS as a static lib. So I wrote a simple fortran code to multiply the matrices together using dgemm. Here is the fortran code:
program gcc_fun
implicit none
! Variables
real*8 x(2,2),y(2,2),z(2,2)
x(1,1) = 3.d0
x(2,1) = 2.d0
x(1,2) = 1.d0
x(2,2) = 4.d0
y(1,1) = .5d0
y(2,1) = 1.d0
y(1,2) = 2.d0
y(2,2) = .75d0
call dgemm( 'n', 'n', 2, 2, 2, 1,x,2,y, 2, 1, z, 1)
! Body of gcc_fun
print *, 'Z = ', z
end program gcc_fun
Here is my makefile to try and link:
CCC = gcc -g -Iincludem -Iincludev -c -O0
WARN = -Wall
CCCX = x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ -m64 -s -Iincludem -Iincludev -c -O2 -DNDEBUG
fort = x86_64-w64-mingw32-gfortran -s -Iincludem -Iincludev -fno-underscoring -c -O2 -DNDEBUG
#fort = x86_64-w64-mingw32-gfortran -s -Iincludem -Iincludev -c -O2 -DNDEBUG
OBJECTS = \
obj/gcc_fun.o
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#------------------------------------------

obj/gcc_fun.o: \
gcc_fun.f90
$(fort) $(WARN) -o $# gcc_fun.f90
I run the make file with make -f makefile_name and get unresolved reference to dgemm. I have tried it with and without the no-underscoring option to no avail. Here is the actual error:
$ make -f Makefile_gcc_fun.mak

When I inspect the OpenBLAS library with nm I get this:
$ nm -g libopenblas_haswell-r0.3.10.a | grep dgemm
dgemm.obj:
0000000000000000 T dgemm_
So it looks like dgemm is an external object and I should be able to call it. I am sure I am missing something easy so thanks for any help.

Answer 1

The subroutine is just dgemm, not dgemm_. You just call it
call dgemm()
The symbol name you see using nm can differ depending on your toolchain (compiler, operating system,...). It matters if you do interoperability of different programming languages. However, if you stay within Fortran, you do not need to worry without it.
Important:
The static library being linked should be placed after the file that uses the library in the linking command. Only then the dependecies can be resolved. If this is the actual issue, we will have some duplicates to link to.
