Hi Matthias,

Your results are interesting. How did you get OpenCL to work on Knights landing? Would this work on older Xeon Phi cards?

Regards,
Benson

Hi all,

the following talk from IWOCL'17 has some numbers on PoCL on Xeon (HSW), and Xeon Phi (KNL) for two applications using PoCL and other SDKs:

The numbers for the comet simulation (slide 18, pdf 53), show some weird outliers every 32 work-items, when increasing the overall number of work-items (particles).

The HEOM code reveals a large performance gap in comparison with the Intel SDK on KNL, while is looks quite competitive on HSW. This is especially strange, as the Intel SDK has only AVX2 support, while PoCL should be able to generate AVX-512 code using LLVM. I compiled PoCL and LLVM on the target architectures, and made sure the result is an actual Haswell and KNL built.

Is anyone interested in working on improving these issues?

Thanks,
Matthias
