I was looking for the OpenCL SDK for Omap 4xxx, For the panda es preferred I guess.
I've seen references that in order to obtain access to it that one needs some sort of agreement in place with TI & Imagination.
From a Linaro standpoint do we have this? Do we know who to contact?
Thanks!

just the SDK wouldn't be enough, as TI does not release the OpenCL libraries that the SDK rely on.

no, Linaro does not have access to that. I guess you've read that forum post already:
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/pandaboard/RO1ONkVcZhw/discussion
that is still valid as of today.
I am not sure what you're planning to do with OpenCL, but at this point, I think that bringing this to TSC and/or Linaro board looks like the only approach (TI has representative in each group). If TSC approves an OpenCL 'task/activity' on OMAP, then will have to figure out a solution for that.

Thanks nico. Yes that was one of the posts I had run across. Bummer that things aren't more widely released but o well. At this point I was just looking to do a few experiments on omap hardware. Going to the TSC just for experimentation purposes is probably more trouble than it's worth.

Tom,
Isn't piglit getting OpenCL support? Seems like an obvious expansion of the piglit work in that case ;-)
cheers, Jesse

Tom,

Yes. You're reading my mind. As it turns out piglit already has OpenCL support and thus this is what is driving my interest. Thankfully there is a mali SDK available which should work great for on my arndale board. But OTOH most of my boards are pandas thus figured I'd try and see if if there was an OMAP4 OpenCL SDK available.
cheers, Jesse
Regards, Tom
