OpenCL on Intel (ivy bridge) & Fedora 21

[ariel]

I recently upgraded to Fedora 21 - on my Core i7/ivy bridge desktop.

Fedora 21 officially supports OpenCL on intel using the open-source beignet/intel project:

sudo yum install beignet clinfo

Code: Select all

$ clinfo
Number of platforms                               2
  Platform Name                                   Intel Gen OCL Driver
  Platform Vendor                                 Intel
  Platform Version                                OpenCL 1.2 beignet 1.0.0
  Platform Profile                                FULL_PROFILE

  Platform Extensions                             cl_khr_icd

  Platform Name                                   Intel Gen OCL Driver
Number of devices                                 1
  Device Name                                     Intel(R) HD Graphics IvyBridge GT2
....

AfterShotPro v2.1.2.10
In Preferences > Hardware acceleration, I can see ASP detects support from OpenCL in the system and I can select "Use OpenCL" (Platform = Intel)

When I enable OpenCL and restart ASP, it gives an error: "A problem has occurred with your OpenCL device. OpenCL has been disabled. The program will now restart".

Known issue? Wondering if anybody succeeded activating OpenCL in ASP using Intel graphics?

This issue for Linux distributions has been escalated already. Unfortunately, we have no information when this will be fixed. Please keep OpenCL disabled.
