[pocl-devel] Using pocl as CPU-only OpenCL driver

[Asdiel E. <asd...@gm...>]

Hello!

We develop a consumer application with heavy computation.  We use OpenCL in
Windows and Metal in OSX to compute stuff in existing GPUs, but we also
need to provide a CPU only code path in both platforms.  I would like to be
able to have a reliable CPU OpenCL driver for those two platforms.

A couple of questions:

How would I go about compiling pocl as a CPU only driver and have it
coexist with any other graphics drivers in the system providing OpenCL on
the GPUs so it shows just as another CPU OpenCL device?

Does pocl support Apple's M1 chip as a CPU device?

Thanks!
