I'm reading the OpenCL 2.0 spec... it says Double precision is an optional feature so the mandated minimum double precision floating point capability is 0. and also in the bit about changes from OpenCL 1.2: Double precision is now an optional core feature instead of an extension What makes you say that fp64 is required by CL 1.2+? -ilia _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
