x86GPUs occurs problem that douple precision is not supported

[qingfeng]

when I use MKL on x86 GPU, compilation can pass but the double precision is not supported when executing. So can I solve it ?

[qingfeng]

I went to check the calling interface of the function and defined the data type of the input parameter as double, but my GPU is x86

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

>>my GPU is x86

Could you please let us know which GPU you are using for running your program along with your OS environment details and MKL version?

>>the calling interface of the function and defined the data type of the input parameter as double,

It would be a great help if you provide us with a sample reproducer so that we can try it from our end.

Please refer to the below link for more details regarding the system requirements of Intel oneMKL

Hi  Vidya

The samples is block_cholesky_decomposition that it can be found in oneAPI-samples/Libraries/oneMKL/block_cholesky_decomposition at 18e90f52840ea509023caa8e8b909211ad26edc3 · oneapi-src/oneAPI-samples (github.com)

I looked at the source code and there is a check for double determinations. 

Another error occurs when I comment out the check item. It is " terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cl::sycl::memory_allocation_error'"

Hi,

Thanks for providing the details of your code.

We tried it from our end and were able to run the block_cholesky_decomposition successfully.

Below are the environment details on which I have tried.

OS: Ubuntu 18.04

MKL: 2021.4.0

Device: Intel(R) UHD Graphics 630 [0x3e98] 

>>can pass but the double precision is not supported when executing. So can I solve it

As per the system requirements, Gen9 or higher versions of GPU are supported.

Please refer to the below link for more details
