For all programmers and fans of GPGPU applications, we now have another good news: AMD / ATI now has a new version of the ATI Stream SDK available for download. The most important new feature of version 2.2 is the support of the current OpenCL 1.1 standards. But otherwise there are many new features and many new things that are now supported for the first time. This feature is also important for the upcoming merger APU from AMD, which is an essential part OpenCL.
Here are the new features:
* Support for the new 1.1 specification OpenCL
* Support for Ubuntu 10.04 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5
* Support for X86 processors SSE2.X instruction (in addition to SSE3.X)
* Support for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional Edition Minimalist GNU for Windows (MinGW) [GCC 4.4]
* Support for GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) 4.1 or later on Linux
* Support for single-channel OpenCL Image Format
* Support for OpenCL / DirectX 10 interoperability
* Support for additional Double Precision floating point routines in kernel OpenCL
* Support for generating and loading of binary kernel OpenCL
* Support for native kernel OpenCL
* Support for printf () in kernel OpenCL
* Support for additional event if Event States are registered callbacks in OpenCL 01.01
* Support for access to additional memory on the GPU by OpenCL applications
* Additional examples OpenCL
* Package Update: ATI Stream Profiler 1.4
* Various OpenCL compiler and runtime fixes and improvements
