My kernel compiled and ran fine with SDK-2.9.1 and cflags "-g -I. -cl-std=CL1.2". With SDK-3.0, though, clBuildProgram exits with the cryptic message:

flex scanner jammed

and exit code (02).

Using Ubuntu 14.04 x64 and latest ctalyst 15.9. Kernel attached.

Are there any kind of logs I could see? What's going on?

Please attach the missing header file (dsp.h). BTW, did you try CodeXL to build the kernel?

Oops! Sorry about that. Attached dsp.h. You can test it with your 1.x/FFT sample, but it needs at least 8192 floats input to run.

CodeXL reports the same exact problem. Using Ubuntu 14.04 x64 with latest ctatalyst(15.9) on a R9 270 GPU.

Update:

Uninstalled and reinstalled SDK-3.0. SDK 3.0 samples seem to build and run OK (didn't test them all).

clBuildProgram works if I remove the offensive printf funtion, in which case it reduces to the LDS write ticket.

After a quick checking using CodeXL, it seems that the problem is with "-g" option. If no "-g" flag is passed, the kernel seems working fine. Could you please confirm?

Indeed. Tyvm for the quick workaround

However note that -g is part of the ocl 2.0 spec and used to work in sdk-2.9.1.

There should also be a better way to process unhandled cflags 😞
