A container for SYCL development.

make sure you have docker installed and running on your system. For CUDA see the notes below.

docker pull danchitnis/sycl-container:llvm-dev

once the download is complete, then run

docker run -it --gpus all danchitnis/sycl-container:llvm-dev bash

once inside the container, then set your environment variables

. /opt/llvm/setvars.sh

This will set the essential variables to compile and run SYCL code. It will run clang++ --version and sycl-ls as a test.

install the VScode remote container extension.

git clone https://github.com/danchitnis/sycl-container.git
cd sycl-container

Go to the VScode remote container extension and click on the reopen the current folder in a container link. Once the container is running, then type bash in the terminal and press enter. Then type . /opt/llvm/setvars.sh and press enter.

First, make sure you have the docker container running, either using llvm-dev or the VScode container, and you have the environment variables set using the instructions above. There are tests codes in the ./test folder.

The simple prints all the SYCL devices available on the system. Compile the code with the following command

clang++ -fsycl device_query.cpp -o device_query

run the code with the following command

./device_query

For the OpenCL backend you need to compile the code with the following command:

clang++ -fsycl simple_loop.cpp - o simple_loop_opencl

run the test with the following command:

DEVICE_TYPE_FILTER=opencl,host ./simple_loop_opencl

For the CUDA backend you need to compile the code with the following command:

clang++ -fsycl -fsycl-targets=nvptx64-nvidia-cuda-sycldevice simple_loop.cpp -o simple_loop_cuda

run the test with the following command:

DEVICE_TYPE_FILTER=cuda,host ./simple_loop_cuda

For Windows users you can use the Remote Desktop Protocol (XRDP) to connect to the container and run full GUI applications including profilers.

docker pull danchitnis/sycl-container:llvm-xrdp

docker run -it --gpus all -v $(realpath .):/mnt -p 33890:3389 danchitnis/sycl-container:llvm-xrdp foo bar yes

Then open Remote Desktop Connection and connect to the hostname localhost:33890. When prompted for the credentials, enter the username and password of the user foo and bar.

git clone https://github.com/danchitnis/sycl-container.git
cd sycl-container

docker build -f ./llvm-cuda/Dockerfile -t danchitnis/sycl-container:llvm-cuda .

docker build -f ./llvm-dev/Dockerfile -t danchitnis/sycl-container:llvm-dev .
