Yes, CUDA was already considered as well. I just think that compilers should help to reduce amount of erroneous or meaningless use cases. That's one of the reasons to have language options for the attributes. But I don't feel strongly about this particular case anyways. So let's make it language independent then. ;) Anastasia -----Original Message----- From: Hal Finkel [mailto:hfin...@anl.gov] Sent: 10 May 2016 00:33 To: Anastasia Stulova Cc: nd; Clang Commits; Matt Arsenault; Ettore Speziale; Aaron Ballman Subject: Re: [Clang] Convergent Attribute ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Anastasia Stulova via cfe-commits" <cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org> > To: "Matt Arsenault" <matthew.arsena...@amd.com>, "Ettore Speziale" > <speziale.ett...@gmail.com>, "Aaron Ballman" > <aa...@aaronballman.com> > Cc: "nd" <n...@arm.com>, "Clang Commits" <cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org> > Sent: Monday, May 9, 2016 12:39:19 PM > Subject: RE: [Clang] Convergent Attribute > > Since it's not a part of any official spec we could of course make it > accepted with anything. > > Just out of curiosity what other programming models supported by Clang > do you think this attribute would be useful for? > > Anastasia > > -----Original Message----- > From: Matt Arsenault [mailto:matthew.arsena...@amd.com] > Sent: 07 May 2016 00:37 > To: Anastasia Stulova; Ettore Speziale; Aaron Ballman > Cc: nd; Clang Commits > Subject: Re: [Clang] Convergent Attribute > > On 05/06/2016 12:11 PM, Anastasia Stulova via cfe-commits wrote: > > I was just wondering whether it would make sense to restrict the > > usage of the attribute to OpenCL language i.e. to add "let LangOpts > > = [OpenCL];" in the attribute definition. > This seems to be a pointless arbitrary restriction to me > > -Matt > > _______________________________________________ > cfe-commits mailing list > cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org > http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits > -- Hal Finkel Assistant Computational Scientist Leadership Computing Facility Argonne National Laboratory _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
