ioc64 installed on Fedora 25 throwing instance of 'std::string', aborting

David_V_ — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 22:26:15 GMT

I am working on getting the Intel OpenCL SDK up and running on a Fedora 25 Skylake machine (Core i7-6700). So far I have:

Installed the xorg-x11-drv-intel package from the Fedora (or maybe RPMFusion) repo
Installed the Intel SDK for OpenCL Applications 2016 R3 for Linux with sudo permissions

Step 2 warned about Unsupported OS and Intel Debugger for Heterogeneous Compute Unsupported OS, and I selected to ignore those prereqs.

When I run

ioc64 -version

I get the following output:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::string'
Aborted (core dumped)

Same thing with

ioc64 -help

Have I installed the correct components? Could this error be related to using an unsupported OS? Any suggestions on how to proceed?

You may be missing some components. You need the SDK for ioc64 as well as the driver/runtime package that matches your system.

See here for more info: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/opencl-drivers

For i7-6700 you will probably want the SRB3.1 driver package to access the GPU.

Thanks for the response. I

Thanks for the response. I did install part of the SRB3.1 driver package yesterday (intel-opencl-r3.1*.rpm), but looking at the link you posted again, I realized I had forgotten the CPU runtime environment (intel-opencl-cpu-r3.1*.rpm). Works now!
