Message

<original API> was migrated with the experimental feature <feature name> which may not be supported by all compilers or runtimes. You may need to adjust the code.

Detailed Help

To support better migration, Intel® DPC++ Compatibility Tool provides the -use-experimental-features option to apply experimental features during migration. <feature name> may not be supported by all SYCL compilers or runtimes. If the target SYCL compiler and runtime does not support <feature name>, you need to adjust the code and not use <feature name>.

Suggestions to Fix

For example, this original CUDA* code:

__global__ void kernel(){
  int lane_id = threadIdx.x % 32;
  int foo = 0, result = 0;
  int mask = 0xf;
  if(lane_id == 0) {
    result = 10;
  }
  if(lane_id & mask) {
    foo = __shfl_sync(mask, result, 0);
  }
}

results in the following migrated SYCL code:

void kernel(const sycl::nd_item<3> &item_ct1){
  int target = item_ct1.get_local_id(2) % 32;
  int foo = 0, result = 0;
  int mask = 0xf;
  if(lane_id == 0) {
    result = 10;
  }
  if(lane_id & mask) {
    // CHECK: /*
    // CHECK: DPCT1108:{{[0-9]+}}: ‘__shfl_sync’ was migrated with the experimental feature masked sub_group function which may not be supported by all compilers or runtimes. You may need to adjust the code.
    // CHECK: */
    foo = dpct::select_from_sub_group(mask, item_ct1.get_sub_group(), 10, 0);
  }
}

which is rewritten to:

void kernel(const sycl::nd_item<3> &item_ct1){
  int target = item_ct1.get_local_id(2) % 32;
  int foo = 0, result = 0;
  int mask = 0xf;
  if(lane_id == 0) {
    result = 10;
  }
  // Don’t use experimental feature masked sub_group function
  int foo_tmp = dpct::select_from_sub_group(item_ct1.get_sub_group(), result, 0);
  if(lane_id & mask) {
    foo=foo_tmp;
  }
}
