This PR refactors how the device image is built so we can expose the native ELF of the device to DeviceImageTy which solves several issues regarding symbol look up (as DeviceImageTy expects an ELF). It also simplifies the module linking code taking into account the latest changes in the driver (which adds "-library-compilation when necessary). --------- Co-authored-by: Alexey Sachkov <alexey.sachkov@intel.com> Co-authored-by: Nick Sarnie <nick.sarnie@intel.com> Co-authored-by: Joseph Huber <huberjn@outlook.com>
The LLVM/Offload Subproject
The Offload subproject aims at providing tooling, runtimes, and APIs that allow users to execute code on accelerators or other "co-processors" that may or may not match the architecture of their "host". In the long run, all kinds of targets are in scope of this effort, including but not limited to: CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, AI/ML accelerators, distributed resources, etc.
For OpenMP offload users, the project is ready and fully usable. The final API design is still under development. More content will show up here and on our webpage soon. In the meantime, people are encouraged to participate in our meetings (see below) and check our development board as well as the discussions on Discourse.
