The Vega V3 supports OpenCL for GPU acceleration. Below is an example of initializing the GPU for computation:
#include <CL/cl.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
// Get platform and device information
cl_platform_id platform_id = NULL;
cl_device_id device_id = NULL;
cl_uint ret_num_devices;
cl_uint ret_num_platforms;
// Initialize OpenCL platform
cl_int ret = clGetPlatformIDs(1, &platform_id, &ret_num_platforms);
if (ret != CL_SUCCESS) {
printf("Failed to get platform ID.\n");
return -1;
}
// Get GPU device
ret = clGetDeviceIDs(platform_id, CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU, 1, &device_id,
&ret_num_devices);
if (ret != CL_SUCCESS) {
printf("Failed to get device ID.\n");
return -1;
}
printf("Vega V3 GPU initialized successfully.\n");
return 0;
}
