OpenCL installed but won't run anything

I'm learning about OpenCL and crypto currencies and trying to setup a system to learn on.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 x64 with the AMD Catalyst Drivers 13.1 installed and AMD APP SDK 2.8 installed with an ATI Radeon HD 6350 w/ 1GB RAM.  I can run 'clinfo' and it shows the GPU and CPU are available.

To test OpenCL, I found this wiki page ( OpenCLHowTo - Andreas Klöckner's wiki ) and downloaded the code and built the samples cleanly.  From this I get:

$ ./print-devices

platform 0: vendor 'Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.'

  device 0: 'Cedar'

  device 1: 'Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU    Q6600  @ 2.40GHz'

So this and clinfo, it all looks good.

I then run the demo.

$ ./cl-demo 1000000 10

Choose platform:

[0] Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

Enter choice: 0

Choose device:

[0] Cedar

[1] Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU    Q6600  @ 2.40GHz

Enter choice: 0

*** build of 'sum' on 'Cedar' said:

"/tmp/OCLUCIPUW.cl", line 1: error: can't enable all OpenCL extensions or

          unrecognized OpenCL extension

Frontend phase failed compilation.

*** (end of message)

*** 'clBuildProgram' in 'cl-helper.c' on line 470 failed with error 'build program failure'.

Aborted (core dumped)

So that ain't good.  I can run the demo just fine if I select the CPU.

Also, I've tried a crypto miner (bfgminer) that utilizes OpenCL/GPU and I'm getting know where with that either.  When it runs, I get a error of:

OCL 0 failure, attempting to reinitialize

Error -55: Enqueueing kernel onto command queue. (clEnqueueNDRangeKernel)

OCL 0 failure, disabling!

OCL 0 being disabled

Attempting to reinitialize OCL 0

OCL 0 being re-enabled

Error -55: Enqueueing kernel onto command queue. (clEnqueueNDRangeKernel)

OCL 0 failure, disabling!

OCL 0 being disabled

Attempting to reinitialize OCL 0

So it appears that the various tools see OpenCL is available on the GPU but when I try run anything on it I get errors.

What am I missing?

Hi

The extenstion cl_khr_fp64 is not supported here, you can check this with clinfo.

double precision storage is not supported . Check the the opencl 1.2 spec.
