What is OpenCL (Open Computing Language)?

OpenCL™ (Open Computing Language) is a low-level API for heterogeneous computing that runs on CUDA-powered GPUs. Using the OpenCL API, developers can launch compute kernels written using a limited subset of the C programming language on a GPU. OpenCL support is included in the latest NVIDIA GPU drivers, available at www.nvidia.com/drivers

Where can I find OpenCL support?

OpenCL support is included in the latest NVIDIA GPU drivers, available at www.nvidia.com/drivers In addition to OpenCL, NVIDIA supports a variety of GPU-accelerated libraries and high-level programming solutions that enable developers to get started quickly with GPU Computing. OpenCL is a trademark of Apple Inc., used under license by Khronos.

What is OpenCL in CUDA?

OpenCL OpenCL™ (Open Computing Language) is a low-level API for heterogeneous computing that runs on CUDA-powered GPUs. Using the OpenCL API, developers can launch compute kernels written using a limited subset of the C programming language on a GPU. NVIDIA is now OpenCL 3.0 conformant and is available on R465 and later drivers.

What is the language semantics of OpenCL-Docs?

The language semantics is described in the documentation published in the releases of OpenCL-Docs repository hosted by the Khronos Group but it is currently not ratified by the Khronos Group. The C++ for OpenCL language is not documented in a stand-alone document and it is based on the specification of C++ and OpenCL C.

How are OpenCL kernels compiled?

The kernels are compiled by the OpenCL compiler to either CPU binaries or GPU binaries, depending on the target device. For CPU processing, the OpenCL runtime uses the LLVM AS to generate x86 binaries.
