Installing CLMAGMA on MacOS + Nvidia GPU

[vish108]

Hi,

Please let me know if this is possible. Is it true that CLMAGMA works only with AMD GPUs?

Sincerely,

clMAGMA should, ideally, work with any OpenCL GPU. However, we have tested it only with AMD GPUs. The clBLAS that AMD provides would first need to be verified on non-AMD GPUs.

However, we provide MAGMA written for CUDA GPUs. The routines available in MAGMA and clMAGMA are similar.

Thank you Mark. So is there a way to install clblas for MacOS+Nvidia GPU. Because on the clblas page, it says that it requires AMD APP SDK, which I don't think will work with Nvidia GPUs. Please let me know how to proceed.

Sincerely,

Vishal

If clMagma is "purely" OpenCL 1.1 compliant, then it should be easy to install. However, that being said, the clMagma that has been provided is heavily tuned for AMD GPU's !!!!
