Intel oneAPI tools 2023.1 is available to update all tools and libraries. These further strengthen software development tools for open multivendor multiarchitecture heterogeneous/accelerated computing.
Standouts additions for 2023.1 include:
- Compiler support automatically enables bfloat16 when available which is especially powerful for AI acceleration.
- Support for just released updates to Codeplay’s oneAPI plugins for NVIDIA and AMD. The plugin updates deliver quality improvements, support Joint_matrix extension and CUDA* 11.8/testing 12, and enable gfx1032 for AMD. The AMD plugin backend now works with ROCm 5.x driver. New performance optimizations guides are available.
- Intel® VTune™ Profiler can automatically highlight profiles to gain performance utilizing high-bandwidth memory (HBM) on Intel® Xeon® Processor Max Series. For Intel® Data Center GPU Max Series, view Xe Link cross-card traffic issues such as CPU/GPU imbalances, stack-to-stack traffic, and throughput and bandwidth bottlenecks.
- Photorealistic ray tracing and path guiding from the Intel® Open Path Guiding Library (integrated in Blender and Chaos V-Ray) deliver performance increases on 4th gen Intel® Xeon® Processors.
- Updates for the latest CUDA headers and libraries to assist those migrating CUDA code to SYCL (from the SYCLomatic project).
- Intel® Arc™ GPUs have new support from Intel® Distribution for GDB on Windows.
- Intel® MPI Library enhances performance for collectives using GPU buffers and default process pinning on CPUs with E-cores and P-cores.
- Additional customer requested enhancements, and fixes.
