Hi Mani,
> Thanks Karl. Is there anyway I can get the build info?
For the moment only in case of an error...
Also, my system is such that I have the GPU on one platform (0) and the
CPU on another (1). When I try using -viennalcl_device_cpu, it still
uses the GPU cause I think that it defaults to the first platform it
finds which only has the GPU. Is there some way to toggle between the
platforms or do you suggest that I manually pass in the contexts into
viennacl?
Ah, so you have two OpenCL platforms available on your machine. Call
viennacl::ocl::set_context_platform_index(0, platform_index_here);
at the beginning of your program in order to specify the default
platform index. In your case this should be
viennacl::ocl::set_context_platform_index(0, 1);
(cf. http://viennacl.sourceforge.net/viennacl-manual-current.pdf)
I'll also make this configurable directly through PETSc in the next
update of the ViennaCL bindings.
Best regards,
Karli
