OpenCL-101
Learn OpenCL step by step as below.
- OpenCL Examples
- Installation Guide of OpenCL
1. OpenCL Examples
- vec-add-standard: An standard OpenCL example, accomplish addition operation of two int-type arrays (vectors).
- vec-add-simple: An simple addition operation of two vectors (NOT recommanded).
- bandwidth: Measure bandwith for various variable type.
- mat-transpose: An demo of matrix transpose with two OpenCL kernels.
2. Installation Guide of OpenCL
You can choose one or two ways to use OpenCL:
- Install OpenCL on Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit
- Using OpenCL by Docker
- Using OpenCL by WSL2
2.1 Install OpenCL on Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit
# below instructions refer linux安装opencl:ubuntu14.04+opencl1.1 - qccz123456的博客 - CSDN博客
# http://blog.csdn.net/qccz123456/article/details/52606788
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential g++ cmake
$ sudo apt-get install clang libclang-3.4-dev libclang-dev libclang1
$ sudo apt-get install ocl-icd-opencl-dev ocl-icd-libopencl1
$ sudo apt-get install opencl-headers ocl-icd-dev ocl-icd-libopencl1
# below instructions refer Ubuntu 16.04.2 下为 Intel 显卡启用 OpenCL_Linux教程_Linux公社-Linux系统门户网站
# http://www.linuxidc.com/Linux/2017-03/141455.htm
$ sudo apt install ocl-icd-libopencl1
$ sudo apt install opencl-headers
$ sudo apt install clinfo
$ sudo apt install ocl-icd-opencl-dev
$ sudo apt install beignet
2.2 Using OpenCL by Docker
Using Docker is convenient, which you don't need config and install enviroments for all about OpenCL. Of course, install Docker Community Edition first and then search relative images in DockerHub.
After finish Docker installation, please follow this instruction from chihchun/opencl-intel. If anything goes normally, using command below in command line:
$ docker run -t -i --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri \
chihchun/hashcat-beignet hashcat -b
It will print similar messages as Verify installation.
2.3 Verify Installation
Using instruction below, successful installation will print same following messages:
$ clinfo

How to compile OpenCL example in GCC?
Precisely, the kernel compilation in OpenCL is make in running time (library call).
In Gcc, for compilation, you only need the headers (aviables on Kronos site). But for linkage, you have to install OpenCL compatible driver.
in the Makefile :
- for Mac OSX : -framework OpenCL
- for Linux : -lOpenCL

Other problems
git error: unable to auto-detect email address
yuanshuai@firefly:~/code/OpenCL-101$ git commit -m "update README.md"
*** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'yuanshuai@firefly.(none)')
After following instructions above, it still occured same error message. I reset user.email
and user.name
using git config --local user.email "[email protected]"
and git config --local user.name "Your name"
and it's okay!
