Description-en: pocl ICD
Portable Computing Language is an open source implementation of the OpenCL
standard which can be easily adapted for new targets. One of the goals of the
project is improving performance portability of OpenCL programs, avoiding the
need for target-dependent manual optimizations. A "native" target is included,
which allows running OpenCL kernels on the host (CPU).
.
This package allows one to use pocl as an installable client driver (ICD) for
OpenCL.
