This is awesome. I finally upgraded a dev box from Fedora 26 to 30 that had stable Intel OpenCL drivers but was afraid none of this would work in 30. I find this NEO packaging is working great for me and look forward to it going into general repos. Thanks!

Just want to add my appreciation. I am running Fedora 31 beta on an Intel NUC “Hades Canyon” (so Intel and AMD GPUs). I was able to install and test SODECL, a library of ordinary differential equation (ODE) and stochastic differential equation (SDE) solvers in OpenCL.

Really look forward to this going into the main repos.

Great, thanks.

This seems like a great package to integrate into the main Fedora repos. Are there any plans to do so?

Yes, it’s on my todo list.

I am experiencing library version issues on Fedora 31 when installing the intel-media-driver from the Fedora repositories together with the intel-opencl package. It seems that the Fedora intel-media-driver requires an older version of the intel-gmmlib package and that creates a conflict. Ideally, this Intel OpenCL repository should become a part of the official Fedora repos because it is essential software for Intel chips.

Issue with intel-media-driver was reported in this github issue: NEO in Fedora repositories · Issue #196 · intel/compute-runtime · GitHub.

Dear Jacek,

The repository (at least for CentOS7) seems to be broken at the moment. :frowning:

I see that you updated the intel-igc RPM recently.

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jdanecki/intel-opencl/packages/

But that now means that I can not install intel-opencl. :frowning: Is this intentional, or was this just an oversight?

Cheers,

Yes, I’ve updated IGC to prepare newer Neo releases. In case of missing packages, please use packages from Source Forge mirror: https://sourceforge.net/projects/intel-compute-runtime, as older packages are being removed automatically.
Currently I’m preparing new Neo release 20.40.18075 with IGC 1.0.5176 and L0 1.0.13.

Hi Jacek, if you are already a Fedora packager feel free to ping me and I will perform your package review to get the NEO driver into Fedora proper. Thanks for your work on this.

Just tested it on Fedora 33, works great!
I am looking forward seeing this package in the main repo.
Thank you very much for the great work!

Thanks @jdanecki really exciting.
I was just curious if anything out there supported OpenCL 3.0 yet and sure enough this already claims it does. Is there a dependency or something required for full 3.0 support? I’m seeing warnings about 2.2 in clinfo.

You need to update ocl-icd package, so it contains support for OpenCL 3.0, see Added OpenCL 3.0 support. · OCL-dev/ocl-icd@e9c19dc · GitHub
