Compatibility Issue: Intel Arc GPU with Arm Development Studio

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to discuss a compatibility issue I've encountered with Intel Arc GPUs and Arm Development Studio. The integration between these two components seems to present some challenges, and I believe it's important to address them together.

Intel's Arc GPUs have gained attention for their gaming and professional graphics capabilities. However, when attempting to incorporate these GPUs into projects developed with Arm Development Studio, compatibility problems arise.

The specific issues include:

  1. Inadequate GPU driver support: The existing Intel GPU drivers may not seamlessly integrate with Arm Development Studio, resulting in limited functionality or errors during development and debugging.

  2. Cross-platform development difficulties: Given the prevalence of Arm-based systems in the mobile and embedded spaces, it becomes essential to develop and test applications that utilize both Arm CPUs and Intel Arc GPUs. Unfortunately, the current compatibility state hampers smooth cross-platform development.

  3. Performance analysis limitations: Arm Development Studio offers robust performance analysis tools that identify bottlenecks and optimize code for Arm architectures. Regrettably, the lack of proper integration with Intel Arc GPUs restricts leveraging these tools for Arc GPU-accelerated applications.

I'm reaching out to gather insights and experiences from fellow developers who may have encountered similar challenges. If you've found workarounds or successfully integrated Intel Arc GPUs into your Arm Development Studio workflow, I would greatly appreciate hearing about your approaches.

Thank you for your attention and I look forward to your input.

Best regards,
