Greetings,

Could anyone explain if OpenCL can run with etnaviv? I'm also not
quite understanding if OpenCL has specific hardware requirements. I
have users that I support wanting to run OpenCL on an IMX8M and am
finding that NXP states the IMX8MM doesn't support OpenCL (yet the
IMX8MN does)  and I'm trying to understand if that is a technical
issue or just simply that they won't support it through their closed
Vivante driver.

I suppose for my own education I also have the same question about
Vulkan. Is there specific GPU hardware requirements for that? My
understanding is that things like OpenCL and Vulkan are just software
API's to tap into the hardware units.

Best Regards,

Tim
