The Maturing State Of Rusticl For Rust-Based OpenCL Within Mesa

[Ladis]

Rusticl, the thing this article is actually about, is bringing full, conformant OpenCL 3.0 to every GPU that mesa supports (as well as on top of vulkan via zink). In addition to that, projects like chipstar are providing CUDA on top of OpenCL.

I see Rusticl supports only newer GPUs implemented in Gallium, mostly AMD. Majorty of Linux PCs is out and Linux itself is only few % of PCs.

That's wrong. Rusticl supports nearly every gallium driver, with even *ancient* R600g support in the works. I don't know how you could have missed that the raspi VC4 driver is one of the best supported ones. Oh, and official conformance results on the Apple M1. It'll also run on top of everything with a vulkan driver, even the proprietary nvidia one.
