Websites:
Install Visual Studio 2019 (including MFC) and CMake.
Intercept Layer for OpenCL™ Applications (opencl-intercept-layer) is available at intel/opencl-intercept-layer: Intercept Layer for Debugging and Analyzing OpenCL Applications [visited 2021-04-04T11:32:13Z]. Download the most recent release and extract it.
Create a folder _bin64 inside the extracted opencl-intercept-layer. In the command prompt, go into this folder, and type
cmake.exe -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" ..
Open the generated CLIntercept.sln Visual Studio project and build it. You are very likely in particular interested in the build target INSTALL.
For GPU: opencl-intercept-layer/kernel_isa_gpu.md at main · intel/opencl-intercept-layer [visited 2023-02-10T00:53:02Z]
Remark: for CPU, see opencl-intercept-layer/kernel_isa_cpu.md at main · intel/opencl-intercept-layer [visited 2023-02-10T00:54:04Z]
You need Ubuntu 20.04 (the most recent LTS release 22.04 won’t do it as of 2023-02-09!). In the Windows shell (command promt or Windows PowerShell), type
wsl --list --online
Find Ubuntu-20.04 listed. Thus type in the Windows shell
wsl --install -d Ubuntu-20.04
It might be necessary to reboot Windows.
After starting Ubuntu (on WSL2) for the first time, it is a good practice to do apply the updates via
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
“Reboot” Ubuntu afterwards: in the Windows shell, type
wsl -t Ubuntu-20.04
Now for building IGA (the Intel GPU ISA disassembler that we will use), which is part of the Intel Graphics Compiler (IGC): the required packages for IGA are listed under intel-graphics-compiler/build_ubuntu.md at master · intel/intel-graphics-compiler [visited 2023-02-10T01:19:17Z]. Note that for building IGA, we don't need all of them.
Now we can build IGA:
git clone https://github.com/intel/intel-graphics-compiler.git cd intel-graphics-compiler git checkout releases/igc-1.0.13230
Note that igc-1.0.13230 is the most recent stable version as of 2023-02-10. You might prefer a more recent version as soon as one gets available.
We have to set environment variables to use clang 11 as C and C++ compiler:
export CC=/usr/bin/clang-11 export CXX=/usr/bin/clang++-11

Now for building IGA:
cd visa/iga mkdir build cd build cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release cmake --build . --config Release
