Tracking Issue for GPU-offload
ZuseZ4 opened this issue · 0 comments
This is a tracking issue for the GPU offload experiment.
The feature gate for the issue will be #![feature(gpu_offload)].
This work is part of the project goal for Scientific Computing in Rust.
This project will use LLVM's offload infrastructure, which is already used to support OpenMP Offload in other languages like C++.
About tracking issues
Tracking issues are used to record the overall progress of implementation.
They are also used as hubs connecting to other relevant issues, e.g., bugs or open design questions.
A tracking issue is however not meant for large scale discussion, questions, or bug reports about a feature.
Instead, open a dedicated issue for the specific matter and add the relevant feature gate label.
Discussion comments will get marked as off-topic or deleted.
Repeated discussions on the tracking issue may lead to the tracking issue getting locked.
