Programs for Intel GPUs can be written using open industry and cross-platform standards, like:
OpenMP offloading in C/C++ and Fortran, i.e. with the help of compiler directives and a supporting compiler, e.g. Intel’s
icpx
(C/C++ compiler) andifx
(Fortran compiler) which is available inintel/...
environment modules.SYCL for C++, i.e. in a data-parallel and explicit fashion. Similar to CUDA but open and cross-platform. See PVC SYCL for more details.
Please refer to the oneAPI Programming Guide for further details about programming. Contact NHR@ZIB support to get assistance on getting your application run on Intel GPUs
The following tools may be useful to check the availability and performance indicators of the GPUs
xpu-smi
(available without any environment module being loaded) lists the available GPUs from the drivers and selected metrics/properties.sycl-ls [--verbose]
(available inintel/...
environment modules) shows GPUs and their properties as available to applications.nvtop
(available innvtop
environment module) shows GPU compute and memory usage.
