GCC 5.0 and OpenMP 4.0 accelerator : Adapteva/Parallella board

[Nicholas Yue]

Hi,

I would like to find out if this is the correct forum to 
ask/discuss about GCC 5's OpenMP 4.0 implementation, in particular the 
new accelerator feature which from what I understand, allows the compute 
to be offloaded to external GPU/accelerator.


I have a Parallella board (ARM dual core) which has an Adapteva 
chip (16 cores) and I would like to build a GCC 5 version for it.


I recall that the Adapteva is a supported CPU with GCC.

If this is not the forum, please direct me to the correct forum to 
continue.


Cheers

GCC releases - busy or broken site

Hi,

   On the page http://gcc.gnu.org, it mentions that as of 13 March 
2009, the current release is the 4.4.0 series and there is now a 4.5.0 
development snapshot.


   Given that the information was three weeks old, I am not sure if the 
failure of 4.4.0 appearing in the release (mirror) was a technical error 
of the release mechanism or a miscommunication of the status to the 
people maintaining the web page.
