I just installed SDK v2.1 and it seems OpenGL interoperability and image support
are not there for the GPU, only for the CPU. Output of CLInfo atached.

My mistake, installing the 10.4 driver solved it.
Are there any news on OpenCL image support for other ATI cards? According to the release message (http://forums.amd.com/devforum/messageview.cfm?catid=390&threadid=132814), it should be generally available. However, the "SimpleImage" OpenCL sample program terminates with the message
Error : Images are not supported on this device!
I'm using a FirePro V8700 under Windows 7 (64bit) with the most recent driver for this configuration (8.723). HarryH mentioned driver version 10.4 for the HD 5870, which seems to be available only for the Radeon series. Does that mean that there is currently no OpenCL image support for non-Radeon cards?
Thanks & kind regards,
Markus
Cat 10.4WHQL has a driver version of 8.723. The FirePro 8.723 driver is the same driver with a few tweeks for workstation cards. So with this new SDK 2.1 and the 8.723, you are using
all the correct drivers. Although acording to the download page, support on the v8700 is still beta.
On my RV770/4850, I get the following extensions.
OpenCL CPU Ext - cl_khr_icd
cl_amd_fp64
cl_khr_global_int32_base_atomics
cl_khr_global_int32_extended_atomics
cl_khr_local_int32_base_atomics
cl_khr_local_int32_extended_atomics
cl_khr_addressable_store
cl_khr_gl_sharing
cl_ext_device_fission
cl_amd_device_attribute_query
cl_amd_printf
OpenCL GPU Ext - cl_khr-icd
cl_amd-fp64
cl_khr_gl_sharing
cl_amd_device_attribute_query
I read the main download page and the FirePro V8700 is suppoprted although in beta form.
Further to that, the download page may say that the previous generation is a system requirement and that it is supported, but that does not mean it supports all the features.
Clearly it cannot support all the features that Cypress supports or there would be no innovation in the Evergreen architecture.
The other option would be to add the features to the OpenCL SDK that Cypress supports and lower spec/older cards do not and then say non-Cypress chips are not supported by the SDK.
That would be nonsense. You have to query the device to find out what features a given device is capable of, and that includes the set of extensions the device supports.
ETA: Micah beat me to the basic response and I also added newlines. This page is getting a bit hard to read...
No problem Micah & Lee. I get it. I appologise. I'm so used to other forums where there is so much misinformation. I missunderstood. I though you meant you needed a 5series to run
any OpenCL. Cheers bud.
