** Description changed: Our partners at Intel have informed us that we are missing a very important build flag for the IGC package in Noble: -DIGC_OPTION__USE_KHRONOS_SPIRV_TRANSLATOR_IN_SC=1 Without this build flag enabled, we should expect to see instabilities such as pytorch crashes. + + ---------------------- SRU Template ---------------------- + + [ Impact ] + + * Users will notice that some software that depends on IGC will be less + stable + + [ Test Plan ] + + * Intel has done testing on their end and assures us that this is a necessary build flag for their software stack to work as intended. + * As Pavel has mentioned below, we can check that this is working as intended by running "$ ocloc -device mtl -spirv_input -file ./a.spv" + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + From our contact at Intel: + "Without the build flag, IGC will not link to translator at all [...] it uses its own internal translator, which is wrong, So this option enables it to link to the distro's translator" + + So while this is a fix, it does carry the inherent risk that we are + switching to a different translator, which will change the behaviors of + any software that uses the translator.
