August 21, 2012 by Tony DeYoung
PGI, a wholly-owned subsidiary of STMicroelectronics updated the PGCL OpenCL framework for multi-core ARM-based Systems-on-Chips (SoCs). The new v12.7 adds:
- Automatic vectorization for the ARM NEON general-purpose Single-Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) engine
- Native dynamic OpenCL kernel compilation is now the default on Android ARM devices, enabling deployment of dynamically-compiled OpenCL kernels in production applications for mobile devices
- Support for compiler "pragmas" for local control of optimizations within OpenCL source files
- Support for debugging of OpenCL host code and statically-compiled OpenCL kernels on Android/ARM devices using the gdb debugger or print statements
