Mesa's Rusticl OpenCL Driver Nearly Ready With AMD Radeon GPU Support

[RejectModernity]

Will it work on all GPUs eventually?

This is very good work! But am I the only one who, every time I read Rusticl, think of "testicle"?

No, this is what I had to say about it last year:

Also, I can't help but think that Rusticl sounds like a condition developed by men with balls of steel. Welp y'all, I've come down with a case of the rusticles. Doc says I'll need a polishing and a tetanus shot. Scheduled me an outpatient surgery tomorrow.

Yes and it already works on Broawdwell+

Very cool hope it can run FAHBench. It would be nice to fold on Linux with the open stack. Might be awhile until the hip plugin is gtg which is hopefully coincides with the release of Rocm 5.5. Fah just released it's 1st beta client and the new cores are under development. That will be a fun day to compare heads up apple to apple, Nvidia and AMD's performance, hip and cuda on the same core! Devs have estimated OpenCL is 30% slower than Cuda. Even a less than fully optimized 1st gen plugin should narrow the gap, Imo I'd call it a rounding success if it narrows the gap by 15-20% .

Great news. I'm really looking forward to this.
