Hi to all
Here follows a short feedback / input regarding the GalliumCompute webpage.
(https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/GalliumCompute/)
It seems that the table matrix needs some updates. The R700 GPU
chip (Radeon HD 4000 series) is fully (and not partial) OpenCL 1.0 and
1.1 compliant.

The older R580 (Radeon X1900), R600 (Radeon HD 2000 series) and
RV670 (Radeon HD 3000 series) GPUs are ATI "Close to Metal" compatible.
This early low level API from ATI was developed around 2005/2006 and was
merged into AMD Stream in 2007. It has absolutely nothing to do with
the present day low level Metal API from Apple. (That one was introduced
much later in 2014.) However, from a today's point of view, the term "Close to
OpenCL" would be much more appropriate. ;-)
