  • An example for OpenCL 3.0?
    4 projects | /r/OpenCL | 11 Mar 2023
    Please note that OpenCL consists of two parts: host API and a separate language which is used to write kernels (code which is going to be offloaded to devices). OpenCL specification describes host APIs as C-style APIs and that is what implementors has to provide. However, there are number of various libraries which provides bindings for other languages: - C++ - Python - Go - Rust

    I don't know a lot about Rust, but this looks like a valid set of OpenCL bindings for Rust: https://github.com/cogciprocate/ocl

  • Making an algorithmic trading bot in Rust?

    I use Rust with OpenCL (ocl). And I am still in college studying CS. It takes a while to setup OpenCL depending on what you want to do with it. But performance benefits are well worth it. On average I can backtest 4 years of data with 1 minute candles in about 8.745 ms for typical RSI indicator. This is done on i5-3320m CPU (not iGPU). Took me a year to build it. Was also learning rust with it. My project has many features so you probably can do it in half amount of time or even less. Currently the project has 21k in Rust and 2k lines in OpenCL.

  • LangChain / LlamaCpp on M1 GPU (MPS)?
    1 project | /r/LangChain | 20 May 2023
    I tried very similar thing. My purpose was to run llama-cpp-python with CLBlast GPU acceleration via clvk on VulkanSDK on my M1 Max computer. I downloaded VulkanSDK for macOS, cloned clvk(https://github.com/kpet/clvk) and CLBlast. Build was successful but there is a problem; when clCreateCommandQueue function was called with CL_QUEUE_OUT_OF_ORDER_EXEC_MODE_ENABLE option(in ggml-opencl.c of llama.cpp) , an error was happened and I do not know how to handle it.

  • Cross Platform GPU-Capable Framework?
    6 projects | /r/gpgpu | 1 Aug 2021
    OpenCL really is your best bet for a cross-platform GPU-capable framework. OpenCL 3.0 cleared out a lot of the cruft from OpenCL 2.x so it's seeing a lot more adoption. The most cross-platform solution is still OpenCL 1.2, largely for MacOS, but OpenCL 3.0 is becoming more and more common for Windows and Linux and multiple devices. Even on platforms without native OpenCL support there are compatibility layers that implement OpenCL on top of DirectX (OpenCLOn12) or Vulkan (clvk and clspv).
  • How does GPU programming work?
    2 projects | /r/GraphicsProgramming | 25 Dec 2020
    What we really need is CLVK, but it seems pretty limited. I'd prefer a clang based compiler which can accept opencl c++ personally, because a brand new compiler is not ideal

What are some alternatives?

When comparing ocl and clvk you can also consider the following projects:

nvfancontrol - NVidia dynamic fan control for Linux and Windows

clspv - Clspv is a compiler for OpenCL C to Vulkan compute shaders
