===================================================================================================
Release: 1.5
Date:
- printf support in device code
- Support threadIdx, blockIdx, blockDim directly (no need for hipify conversions in kernels.) HIP
Kernel syntax is now identical to CUDA kernel syntax - no need for extra parms or conversions.
- Refactor launch syntax. HIP now extracts kernels from the executable and launches them using the
existing module interface. Kernels dispatch no longer flows through HCC. Result is faster
kernel launches and with less resource usage (no signals required).
- Remove requirement for manual "serializers" previously required when passing complex structures
into kernels.
- Remove need for manual destructors
- Provide printf in device code
- Support for globals when using module API
- hipify-clang now supports using newer versions of clang
- HIP texture support equivalent to CUDA texture driver APIs
