C for Metal Development Package
The Intel® C for Metal development package is a software development package for Intel® Graphics Technology. It includes the Intel® C for Metal Compiler, the Intel® C for Metal Runtime, Intel® Media Driver for VAAPI, and reference examples, which can be used to develop applications accelerated by Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator. A typical application contains two kinds of source code, kernel and host. The kernel is written in Intel® C for Media language, compiled to GPU ISA binary by the Intel® C for Metal Compiler, and executed on the GPU. Host manages workloads through the Intel® C for Metal Runtime and user mode media driver.
Source code to build the Intel® C for Metal Development Package is open source and can be downloaded from GitHub:
- Intel Media Driver for VAAPI and Intel® C for Metal Runtime: https://github.com/intel/media-driver/
- Intel C for Metal Compiler and examples: https://github.com/intel/cm-compiler/
- Intel Graphics Compiler: https://github.com/intel/intel-graphics-compiler/
- One script to build the package automatically from the GitHub source code will be provided soon...
