Phoronix: The Current Open-Source OpenCL Experience On Fedora

With the open-source OpenCL news this week about Beignet working on OpenCL 2.0 support and Intel Cherryview now supporting OpenCL, I decided to see how the open-source OpenCL support is shaping up for the soon-to-be-released Fedora 22...

Thanks for the reminder. I hadn't tried running luxmark on my r600g card for a while. Since the last time I looked, LUXBALL_HDR has started working in clover, but the HOTEL scene breaks in LLVM with a message about running out of registers during allocation.

The state of Open-Source OpenCL? Without image support it's pretty much useless.
