Spirv doesn't have implicit conversions between address spaces (at least at present, we might need to change that) and address space qualified *this pointers are not handled well by clang. This commit changes the single instance of the smartstack to be explicitly a singleton, for fractionally simpler IR generation (no this pointer) and to sidestep the work in progress spirv64-- openmp target not being able to compile the original version.
The LLVM/Offload Subproject
The Offload subproject aims at providing tooling, runtimes, and APIs that allow users to execute code on accelerators or other "co-processors" that may or may not match the architecture of their "host". In the long run, all kinds of targets are in scope of this effort, including but not limited to: CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, AI/ML accelerators, distributed resources, etc.
For OpenMP offload users, the project is ready and fully usable. The final API design is still under development. More content will show up here and on our webpage soon. In the meantime, people are encouraged to participate in our meetings (see below) and check our development board as well as the discussions on Discourse.
