[Pkg-opencl-devel] OpenCL and multiarch

[Simon Richter]

Hi,

I've asked this about a year or two ago already, but dropped the ball.
How should we deal with ICDs in a multiarch system, especially with a
system like wine, which pulls in both i386 and amd64 ICD loaders?

The easiest approach is probably to use (e.g.)

  /etc/OpenCL/intel.i386.icd
  /etc/OpenCL/intel.amd64.icd

with paths pointing to multiarch locations, which allows for
co-installable packages, but requires the ICD loader to properly handle
the error from attempting to load libraries for the wrong architecture.

If better separation is desired, we might need to poke the Khronos group.
