Is there any documentation on this extension in the new 3960 driver?

  • Added support for OpenCL extension cl_intel_simultaneous_sharing to allow sharing of memory buffers between OpenCL, OpenGL, and DirectX.  This feature is used by Adobe* applications such Photoshop CC*

Here is documentation:

Name String

 

    cl_intel_simultaneous_sharing

Extension Type

 

    OpenCL platform extension

 

Dependencies

 

    OpenCL 1.2. This extension is written against revision 19 of the

    OpenCL 1.2 Specification and revision 19 of the OpenCL 1.2 Extension

    Specification.

 

Overview

 

    Currently OpenCL 1.2 Extension Spec forbids to specify interoperability

    with multiple graphics APIs at clCreateContext or clCreateContextFromType

    time and defines that CL_INVALID_OPERATION should be returned in such

    cases as noted e.g. in chapters dedicated to sharing memory objects with

    Direct3D 10 and Direct3D 11.

 

    The goal of this extension is to relax the restrictions and allow to

    specify simultaneously these combinations of interoperabilities that are

    supported by a given OpenCL device.

 

New Tokens

 

    Accepted as a property being queried in the <param_name> parameter

    of clGetDeviceInfo:

        CL_DEVICE_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL        0x4104

        CL_DEVICE_NUM_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL    0x4105

 

Additions to chapter 4 of the OpenCL 1.2 Specification

 

    4.2 Querying Devices

 

    Extend table 4.3 to include the following entry:

 

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    cl_device_info             Return Type  Description

    --------------             -----------  -----------

    CL_DEVICE_NUM_SIMULTANEOUS cl_uint      Number of supported combinations

    _INTEROPS_INTEL                         of graphics API interoperabilities

                                            that can be enabled simultaneously

                                            within the same context.

 

                                            The minimum value is 1.

                                           

    CL_DEVICE_SIMULTANEOUS     cl_uint[]    List of <n> combinations of context

    _INTEROPS_INTEL                         property names describing graphic APIs

                                            that the device can interoperate with

                                            simultaneously by specifying the

                                            combination in the <properties>

                                            parameter of clCreateContext and

                                            clCreateContextFromType.

 

                                            Each combination is a set of 2

                                            or more property names and is

                                            terminated with zero.

 

                                            <n> is the value returned by the

                                            query for

                                            CL_DEVICE_NUM_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

        

    4.4 Contexts

  

    Add to the list of errors for clCreateContext:

 

    “CL_INVALID_OPERATION if a combination of interoperabilities with multiple graphics

    APIs is specified which is not on the list of valid combinations returned by

    the query for CL_DEVICE_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL.”

 

    Add to the list of errors for clCreateContextFromType the same new errors

    described above for clCreateContext.

 

Additions to section 9.6.4 of the OpenCL 1.2 Extension Specification

 

    Replace the section about CL_CONTEXT_INTEROP_USER_SYNC property support with:

 

    “OpenCL / OpenGL sharing does not support the CL_CONTEXT_INTEROP_USER_SYNC property

    defined in table 4.5. Specifying this property when creating a context with OpenCL /

    OpenGL sharing will return an appropriate error or be ignored for OpenGL sharing if

    sharing with another graphics API supporting the CL_CONTEXT_INTEROP_USER_SYNC

    property is also specified.”

 

    Replace the description of CL_INVALID_PROPERTY error code with:

 

    “errcode_ret returns CL_INVALID_PROPERTY if an attribute name other than those

    specified in table 4.5 or if CL_CONTEXT_INTEROP_USER_SYNC is specified in properties

    and there is no graphics API interoperability specified that supports it.”

 

Additions to section 9.9.5 of the OpenCL 1.2 Extension Specification

 

    Remove the following description of CL_INVALID_PROPERTY error code:

 

    “CL_INVALID_OPERATION if Direct3D 10 interoperability is specified by setting

    CL_INVALID_D3D10_DEVICE_KHR to a non-NULL value, and interoperability with another

    graphics API is also specified.”

 

Additions to section 9.11.5 of the OpenCL 1.2 Extension Specification

 

    Remove the following description of CL_INVALID_PROPERTY error code:

 

    “CL_INVALID_OPERATION if Direct3D 11 interoperability is specified by setting

    CL_INVALID_D3D11_DEVICE_KHR to a non-NULL value, and interoperability with another

    graphics API is also specified.”

 

Additions to cl_intel_dx9_media_sharing extension specification:

 

    Remove the following description of CL_INVALID_PROPERTY error code:

 

    “CL_INVALID_OPERATION if DirectX 9 interoperability is specified by setting  

    CL_CONTEXT_D3D9_DEVICE_INTEL, CL_CONTEXT_D3D9EX_DEVICE_INTEL, or

    CL_CONTEXT_DXVA_DEVICE_INTEL to a non-NULL value, and interoperability with any

    other graphics API is also specified.”

 

Example Usage

 

   cl_uint  SimInteropsNum;


    cl_uint* SimInterops;

    size_t   SimInteropsSize;

   

    clGetDeviceInfo( deviceID,

                     CL_DEVICE_NUM_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL,

                     sizeof( SimInteropsNum ),

                     &SimInteropsNum,

                     NULL );

    clGetDeviceInfo( deviceID,

                     CL_DEVICE_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL,

                     0,

                     NULL,

                     &SimInteropsSize );

    SimInterops = new cl_uint[ SimInteropsSize / sizeof( cl_uint ) ];

    clGetDeviceInfo( deviceID,

                     CL_DEVICE_SIMULTANEOUS_INTEROPS_INTEL,

                     SimInteropsSize,

                     SimInterops,

                     NULL );

   

    bool SimInteropsCheck[] = { false, false, false };

    bool GLD3D11SimInteropSupported = false;

    cl_uint property = 0;

   

    for( int i = 0; i < SimInteropsNum; i++ )

    {

        SimInteropsCheck[0] = false;

        SimInteropsCheck[1] = false;

        SimInteropsCheck[2] = false;

        do

        {

            property = *SimInterops++;

            if( property == CL_GL_CONTEXT_KHR )

                SimInteropsCheck[0] = true;

            if( property == CL_WGL_HDC_KHR )

                SimInteropsCheck[1] = true;

            if( property == CL_CONTEXT_D3D11_DEVICE_KHR )

                SimInteropsCheck[2] = true;

        }

        while( property != 0 );

           

        if( SimInteropsCheck[0] && SimInteropsCheck[1] && SimInteropsCheck[2] ){

            GLD3D11SimInteropSupported = true;

            printf("This device supports GL and D3D11 simultaneous sharing.\n");

            break;

        }

    }

    if( !GLD3D11SimInteropSupported ){

        printf("This device doesn't support GL and D3D11 simultaneous sharing.\n");

    }
