GPU ISA code execution

[Grek]

Hi

I have question about kernel execution on Intel GPU

I working on complicated project, and the best way to improve efficiency is writing code directly in GEN assembly.

It is possible to directly load  ISA compiled program to GPU?

I downloaded and built IGA compiler, successfully compiled my ISA project to binary version, but in hex editor i see this is a raw file, without header, only GEN SIMD instructions.

OpenCl clBuildProgramWithBinary function don't work. I have error code -42 CL_INVALID_BINARY

The same result with clBuildProgramWithIL, CL_INVALID_BINARY error.

There is any method to start this program on GPU? (Intel I5-5300U, broadwell family)

Thanks for reply

Hello,

It's been a while since I've done this, but please have a look at the ocloc "OpenCL Offline Compiler" since I think it has the functionality you are looking for:

Note that ocloc packages are also available in the latest NEO compute runtime releases:

https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases/latest

I've had the best luck in the past by first writing and compiling a skeleton kernel with the same signature as my hand-written kernel, disassembling the kernel binary, replacing the skeleton kernel with my hand-written kernel, then re-assembling the binary.

Good luck!
