Source : pocl-3.1-2.el9.src.rpm
Repository : epel
Summary : Portable Computing Language - an OpenCL implementation
URL : https://github.com/pocl/pocl
License : MIT AND BSD-1-Clause AND (GPL-3.0-or-later OR LGPL-3.0-or-later)
Description : Pocl's goal is to become an efficient open source (MIT-licensed) implementation
: of the OpenCL 1.2 (and soon OpenCL 2.0) standard.
:
: 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 compiler optimizations, reducing the need for
: target-dependent manual optimizations.
:
: At the core of pocl is the kernel compiler that consists of a set of LLVM
: passes used to statically transform kernels into work-group functions with
: multiple work-items, even in the presence of work-group barriers. These
: functions are suitable for parallelization in multiple ways (SIMD, VLIW,
: superscalar,...).
