Hello everyone, Portable Computing Language (pocl) v1.1 released -------------------------------------------------
Pocl is a portable open source (MIT-licensed) implementation of the OpenCL standard (1.2 with some 2.0 features supported). In addition to producing an easily portable open-source OpenCL implementation, another major goal of this project is improving performance portability of OpenCL programs with the kernel compiler and the task runtime, reducing the need for target-dependent manual optimizations. Release highlights ------------------ * Support for LLVM/Clang 6.0 and 5.0. * Experimental SPIR and SPIR-V support * Improved kernel compilation speed For full details, please read the Changelog or 1.1 release page on GitHub (links at the bottom). Please note that there's an official pocl "maintenance policy" in place. This text describes the policy and how you can get your favourite project that uses OpenCL to remain regression free in the future pocl releases: http://portablecl.org/docs/html/maintainer-policy.html Acknowledgements ---------------- Most of the code that landed to the pocl code base during this release cycle was produced for the needs of research funded by various sources. The Customized Parallel Computing research group of Tampere University of Technology (Finland) likes to thank the Academy of Finland (funding decision 297548), Business Finland (FiDiPro project StreamPro, 1846/31/2014) and HSA Foundation.
