OpenCL CPU runtime cannot find any platforms

[AfshinArefi]

I am trying to test Intel's CPU runtime for OpenCL but my test program fails to get any platforms on the system and "clGetPlatformIDs" returns "CL_PLATFORM_NOT_FOUND_KHR".

To prepare the system I have followed the instructions to install the runtime through oneapi instructions, so I have installed:

sudo yum install intel-oneapi-runtime-opencl
sudo yum install intel-oneapi-runtime-compilers.x86_64
sudo yum install opencl-headers.noarch

 My Cpu is 

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2683 v4 @ 2.10GHz

which seems to have the requirements for the X86 CPU runtime.

The code I am test with is just a simple

#include<CL/cl.h>
#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {
    unsigned int num;
    cout << clGetPlatformIDs(0, NULL, &num) << endl;
    cout << num << endl;
    return 0;
}

Building with

g++ test.cpp -o test -lOpenCL

And the call returns error "-1001" which is "CL_PLATFORM_NOT_FOUND_KHR"
Using strace I can see that these related files are being loaded:

/opt/intel/oneapi/lib/libOpenCL.so.1
/etc/OpenCL/vendors/intel64.icd
/opt/intel/oneapi/lib/intel64/libintelocl.so

Am i missing a step? Something else I need to install?

P.S.: Installing the complete base toolkit

sudo yum install intel-basekit

Did not change anything.

Manually installing the older package for the runtime

l_opencl_p_18.1.0.015.tgz

Works well and as expected.

Any idea what is the problem with the new packages based on the oneAPI?

Hi,

Can you tell me the version of your OS?  You can refer to the system requirements and check if your OS meets the requirements.  https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/system-requirements/intel-oneapi-base-toolkit-system-requirements.html

Thanks

Thank you for your response. My OS is "CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)" which is in the supported OSes I think.

Hi, did you source the setvars.sh configuration file to setup your oneAPI installation?

On my Ubuntu system this is done via:

$ source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh

For more information please see:

I've found this is required to setup some library paths for the CPU OpenCL implementation.

I'm sorry to tell you that the OpenCL CPU Runtime in oneAPI Base Toolkit doesn't support  Centos 7.  OpenCL CPU Runtime is shipped with Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler, and for the system requirements of the compiler, please refer to  https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/system-requirements/intel-oneapi-dpcpp-system-requirements.html

Thanks.
