With Metal.jl it's possible to program GPUs on macOS using the Metal programming framework. The package is a work in progress. There are bugs, functionality is missing, and performance hasn't been optimized. Expect to have to make changes to this package if you want to use it. PRs are very welcome. These requirements are fairly strict, and are due to our limited development resources (manpower, hardware). Technically, they can be relaxed. If you are interested in contributing to this, see this issue for more details. In practice, Metal.jl will probably work on any macOS 10.15+, and other GPUs that are supported by Metal might also function (if only partially), but such combinations are unsupported for now.

Features

  • Metal.jl can be installed with the Julia package manager
  • The easiest way to work with Metal.jl, is by using its array abstraction
  • Kernel programming
  • This package also supports profiling GPU execution for later visualization with Apple's Xcode tools
  • Metal API wrapper
  • Metal.jl relies on a custom LLVM with an AIR back-end
