Hi,
I've been having trouble enabling the OpenCL timeline in Streamline. The feature has been publicized on the product pages, guides and docs, but I can't seem to get the menu option in Streamline. I have noticed however that the docs list it as an early access feature (ARM Information Center) - which confuses me since the other product pages imply that it is there for everyone.
I have followed the instructions for configuring the kernel and installing gator and the profiling counters work well - there is output on the GPU Vertex-Tiling-Compute and GPU Fragment activity timelines.
Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? Or do we have to contact ARM in order to have access to this feature?
Thanks,
Alex
Hi Alex,
The Mali DDK must be built with OpenCL support. As the build instructions may change depending on your version of the DDK, please see the Mali integration documentation on how to build it with Streamline and OpenCL support.

Hi Wade,
Thanks for your reply. As far as I know the Mali DDK is not publicly available (How can I get the full source code of the Mali GPU DDK?). Has the access changed since this post/is the portion we need publicly accessible, or should we be in contact with ARM in order to get access?
Many thanks,

Driver binaries should be available from your chipset manufacturer, which will include integration with platform specific pieces such as GPU power management.
HTH, Pete
