PoCL 7.0 is now available with OpenCL 3.0 support for CPUs & Intel GPUs, LLVM Clang 19/20 compatibility, and Windows (MSVC/MinGW) binaries. Boost performance with AVX-512 optimizations & Julia language integration. Download now!
The Portable Computing Language (PoCL) 7.0 has officially launched, delivering OpenCL 3.0 conformance, expanded hardware support, and major performance upgrades for developers and enterprises.
Originally designed for CPU-based OpenCL execution, PoCL now leverages LLVM back-ends to accelerate workloads across AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel GPUs, making it a versatile solution for high-performance computing.
Key Features of PoCL 7.0
1. OpenCL 3.0 Compliance for CPUs & Intel GPUs
PoCL 7.0 achieves full OpenCL 3.0 conformance when using:
CPU execution back-end (ideal for AVX2/AVX-512 x86_64 processors)
Intel Level Zero drivers (for Intel Arc GPUs)
This update ensures better compatibility, stability, and performance for scientific computing, AI inference, and cross-platform GPU acceleration.
2. Expanded Hardware & Software Support
LLVM Clang 19/20 compatibility – Future-proof compilation for next-gen apps
Microsoft Windows (MinGW/MSVC) support – Broader enterprise adoption
Khronos ICD format – Simplified driver management
Julia language integration (OpenCL.jl) – Enhanced scientific computing workflows
3. Performance Optimizations
Modern CPUs with AVX-512 see significant OpenCL speedups, making PoCL a cost-effective alternative to dedicated GPU compute in some workloads.
Why PoCL 7.0 Matters for Developers & Enterprises
With OpenCL 3.0 now mainstream, PoCL offers:
✅ Cross-platform GPU acceleration (AMD/NVIDIA/Intel)
✅ High-performance CPU-based OpenCL (AVX-512 optimization)
✅ Enterprise-ready Windows support (MinGW & MSVC)
✅ Seamless integration with Julia & LLVM
Download & Get Started
PoCL 7.0 source code and Windows binaries are available on GitHub.
