Third Party GPUs
- To use an AMD* GPU with the Intel® oneAPI DPC++ Compiler, install the oneAPI for AMD GPUs plugin from Codeplay.
- To use an NVIDIA* GPU with the Intel® oneAPI DPC++ Compiler, install the oneAPI for NVIDIA GPUs plugin from Codeplay.
Known Issues
-
Eclipse sample browser plugin is unable to integrate during basekit installation due to missing 'osgi.bundle; org.apache.commons.io 0.0.0' bundle. Workaround is to skip the integration of eclipse during installation and later provide the plugin location manually.
-
The environment start up scripts have been migrated to POSIX compliant scripts. For non-POSIX shells, such as csh, there is a workaround for command-line usage for the Component Directory Layout:
% bash -c 'source /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh ; exec csh'
For the Unified Directory Layout use % bash -c 'source <install-dir>/<toolkit-version>/oneapi-vars.sh ; exec csh'
Deprecation Notices
- None
