Hi Evgeny, As i said, I'm working for source-to-source generation for my master thesis. But my compiler can transform from C to CUDA not PTX now :) For further information, I uploaded https://github.com/grypp/macc-omp4 my documents and code samples regarding my master thesis. I also added my benchmark results which covers results of comparisons between CAPS OpenACC and MACC. For now my compiler MACC has a better result than CAPS OpenACC for jacobi application and CG application from NAS parallel benchmark.
Actually I have never thought intermediate language translation. But it is great idea to generate optimized code. But as i know, any NVidia architecture doesn't support SPIR backend yet, right? What i understood that currently GCC is working on SPIR code generation to support OpenMP 4.0. So do you have any future plan to generate PTX? Because SPIR backend is too new, it was announced almost 1 month ago. and i think your team has more experience on SPIR than me. Therefore I'm asking that is there any project to implementation about PTX? By the way i couldn't see any specific project regarding openmp 4.0 http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/openmp . Actually i am wondering for GSoC, which area am i supposed to focus? Regards.
