Hey Loïc, the change is currently in Sid (one change back in the changelog).
Agreed that this is potentially a major change, but it's also how the software is intended to work. Without it, Intel is noting random crashes in popular applications like Pytorch, a problem which has been worse on Meteor Lake. If we're looking for potential risks, we already see that using a different translator than expected can cause random crashes. Perhaps there are some users who have stable code with the current translator who will find a bug when we switch it. However, if that is the case, we would have a bug with Intel's supported configuration rather than our current situation where we would have to address bugs knowing that our configuration is unsupported by the developers themselves. As for tests, we can use this command on MTL to demonstrate an issue that is solved by this change: "ocloc -device mtl -spirv_input -file ./a.spv" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2085370 Title: Important build flag left out of IGC build To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-graphics-compiler/+bug/2085370/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
