OpenCL BSP for Android 6.0 i.MX6Q

[suyouxin]

Hello,

I've left reply in OpenCL Hello World, but thinking I should start a new question to attract eyeball.

I am working on running OpenCL Hello World on i.MX6q Android 6.0 BSP. 

I've downloaded libCLC_Android.so and libOpenCL_Android.so from OpenCL Hello World. When I create Android.mk I will need to include libVSC.so(using objectdump figured the gc functions out) in the dependencies, otherwise, it will fail to find gcXXXXX(CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: cannot locate symbol "gcSHADER_Destroy" referenced by "/system/lib/libOpenCL.so").

LOCAL_SHARED_LIBRARIES := \
libGAL \
libVSC \
libOpenCL \
libCLC \

After adding libVSC, the host executable compiled OK, so that I can run it on iMX6, 

However, if I run it on i.MX6 I will get a "Segmentation fault" when calling clBuildProgram, and I found crash report like this in logcat,

Which got a fault addr when calling gcSHADER_AddAttribute....

I am not sure if the libCLC_Android.so and libOpenCL_Android.so here is still usable for newer version kernel/Android BSP. If not, would somebody can help to build a library suits? 

Other method I had tried:

Download Linux 4.1.15 BSP used for YCOTO project, pulled out the libCLC.so and libOpenCL.so from /usr/lib, then I encounter dependency issue as expected, since Android has different libc, etc. 

Would be much appreciated if someone can provide any information or provide the suitable libraries.

The sample code I used to test is updated to here if you'd like to have a look.

Hi Youxin,

The libraries LibCLC.so and LibOpenCL.so has to be in your settings since this are done for the BSP release. You libraries look old probably form Kernel 3.0.35. Segmentation fault is memory problem that has no loaded with proper permission the libraries.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Any chance NXP can provide libraries built for Kernel 4.1.15 in Android Setting? Or there is a release for this I don't know?

Regards,

Youxin
