BRIG is the binary form of the Heterogeneous System Architecture Intermediate Language (HSA IL). This BRING front-end also brings the libhsail-rt run-time into GCC. So far BRIG in GCC has just been tested on Linux x86_64.
The BRIG front-end for GCC landed this morning with this Git commit.
More details on GCC for HSA/BRIG can be found via this PDF presentation from the GNU Cauldron 2015.
GCC 7.1 is the first stable release of GCC7 and is due out in March~April, which will now have this new front-end alongside many other changes and new features.
