printf函数在OpenCL内核中不起作用

更新时间:2022-10-15 16:11:58

我不知道IBM的实现,但是printf()是一个非标准的OpenCL函数。在AMD平台上,您必须通过以下方式启用扩展:

  #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION cl_amd_printf:enable 

。也许扩展需要在IBM平台上启用?



(更新)从此页面,可能使用的扩展名称可能是cl_intel_printf,因此请尝试:

  #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION cl_intel_printf:enable 


Hi I trying to debug OpenCL kernel code on PS3. Here is the code:

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION cl_khr_byte_addressable_store : enable

int offset() {
    return 'A' - 'a';
}

__kernel void tKernel(__global unsigned char *in, __global unsigned char *out) {    
    size_t i;
    printf("var");
    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
        out[i] = in[i] + offset();
}

In IBM OpenCL_guide.pdf in section 4.3.3 on page 18, there are describe debugging kernel with printf method. So I add the printf function to my kernel and trying test it. But OpenCL compile gave me this error:

"IBM_OpenCL_kernel.cl", line 9.15: 1506-766 (S) The universal character name "?" is not in the allowable range for an identifier.

I also have exported LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. Can anyone have this problem?

I don't know about the IBM implementation, but printf() is a non-standard OpenCL function. On the AMD platform, you have to enable the extension through:

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION cl_amd_printf : enable

before printf() will work. Perhaps an extension needs to be enabled on the IBM platform as well?

(Update) From this page, the possible extension name to use might be cl_intel_printf, so try:

#pragma OPENCL EXTENSION cl_intel_printf : enable
