Hi all, Currently nearly all the distributions I've seen* enable and use the ICD. Only Gentoo does not use it, but manages the OpenCL.so conflicts via eselect.
They have the ocl-icd library as a separate option, which makes me wonder how that's supposed to work. After all, for it to work the vendor package should: a) provided a binary not called libOpenCL.so (it could be called like that, but must be outside of ld's search path) b) provide a $foo.icd file, listing the ICD file/path name Most likely I'm having a dull moment somewhere and things work just fine. Considering that the --enable-opencl-icd is almost always set, I think we should change the default. Deprecating and removing it (at a later stage) also a nice option, since it will allow us to do some tidy-ups. What do you guys think? I'd love to hear people's thoughts about this.
