Numpy throwing illegal instruction(core dumped) error

[prathvi00001]

Hi,

My numpy was working fine with 1.19.5 version previously.

While installing tensorflow by following these instructions my numpy got downgraded to 1.16.1.

Later, I upgraded it to 1.19.5 version using pip install numpy --upgrade.
Now I am getting illegal instruction(core dumped) error while importing numpy,
Please help me resolve this issue.

Hi,
I assume that you are running your code on Jetson.
According to this thread, try this in your terminal before running your program

export OPENBLAS_CORETYPE=ARMV8

You can also put it in the same command. For instance, if you are running a python script, you would write:

OPENBLAS_CORETYPE=ARMV8 python my_script.py

If it is the same case that I had, the problem is installing the numpy with pip. If you install it with apt, you won’t need this.

apt-get install -y python-numpy python3-numpy

Again, not sure if my issue was exactly the same.

Downgrading my numpy version to 1.19.4 solved my issue.
