Just to understand how this will work. I would imagine you can have a device function definition preceding its use. When the function is being parsed it's not known yet whether it will be called from the device or not, so it won't be possible to set the language mode correctly and hence provide the right diagnostics. So is the plan to launch a separate parsing phase then just to extract the call graph and annotate the device functions? > NOTE2: @Anastasia, https://reviews.llvm.org/D60454 makes impossible to > replace `sycl_kernel` attribute with `__kernel` attribute.

Ok, my question is whether you are planning to duplicate the same logic as for OpenCL kernel which doesn't really seem like an ideal design choice. Is this the only difference then we can simply add an extra check for SYCL compilation mode in this template handling case. The overall interaction between OpenCL and SYCL implementation is still a very big unknown to me so it's not very easy to judge about the implementations details...
