[Beignet] Beignet not working on Dell Precision M3800

[Yang, Rong R]

The beignet only support Ivy Bridge now, but i7-4702HQ is Haswell.
For beignet's Haswell support is ongoing, and almost finish. There are some Haswell patches has pushed today, you can try it.
But because of the drm kernel driver's restrict, if you want to run OpenCL applications with local memory enabled, you should apply the attached patch to your kernel, otherwise, the application will fail.

Thanks

Subject: [Beignet] Beignet not working on Dell Precision M3800

Hi everyone,

(I'm not sure if this the right place to report bugs/issues but I have searched through the internet and this is the only place I can find to reach beignet developers..... Please feel free to tell me what is the right place for bug report if it is not here.)

I have recently got a Dell Precision M3800 laptop which comes with a Intel i7-4702HQ CPU and a NVIDIA Quadro K1100M GPU. I have no major problems using the graphic cards with the opensource (for both cards) or close source (for the NVIDIA card). However, when I want to use OpenCL on the intel card with beignet it doesn't work.

The issue is, beignet can create OpenCL context without any problems (and it also shows the correct device name...) but as long as I ask it to calculate anything, it freezes the window manager (kwin 4.11.9 on KDE 4.13 using OpenGL 2.0) for a few seconds and only the cursor is moving. In addition, it sometimes (if not always) fails to run the kernels and no result is returned.

Is this card supported or am I missing anything? It will be really nice if I can get it working and I can provide any information/collaboration in order to solve the problem if necessary.
