spla is a sparse linear algebra framework for multi-GPU computations based on OpenCL and boost.compute technologies. It provides linear algebra primitives, such as matrices, vectors and scalars, supports wide variety of operations, and gives an ability to customize underlying values types and parametrise operations using arbitrary user defined functions.

Note: project under heavy development! Not ready for usage.

• Windows 10
• Linux (Ubuntu 20.04)
• MacOS (Catalina 10.15)

• Common:
  • Git (to get source code)
  • CMake (the latest version)
  • Ninja (as build files generator)
  • Boost library (the latest version)
  • OpenCL 1.2+ SDK
  • Python 3.7+
• Windows 10:
  • Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler (MSVC) with C++ 17 support
  • x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS
• Ubuntu 20.04:
  • GNU C++ Compiler with C++ 17 support
• MaсOS Catalina 10.15:
  • Clang Compiler with C++ 17 support

The following code snippet downloads project source code repository, enters project root folder and runs submodules init in order to get dependencies source code initialized. Must be executed from the folder where you want to locate project.

$ git clone https://github.com/JetBrains-Research/spla.git
$ cd spla
$ git submodule update --init --recursive

The following code snippet runs cmake build configuration process with output into build directory, in Release mode with tests SPLA_BUILD_TESTS=ON enabled. Then runs build process for build directory in verbose mode with -j 4 four system threads. Pass optionally SPLA_BUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF to disable build of library example applications. Must be executed from project root folder.

$ cmake . -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DSPLA_BUILD_TESTS=ON
$ cmake --build build --target all --verbose -j 4

On macOS, you can optionally specify target binaries architecture to build. Pass option -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES with x86_64 or arm64 respectively. By default, build falls back to CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR specified architecture. See example bellow, replace <arch> with desired architecture for your build.

$ cmake . -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DSPLA_BUILD_TESTS=ON -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=<arch>
$ cmake --build build --target all --verbose -j 4

The following code snippet executed python script, which allows to run all native C++ library unit-tests, located in build directory, specified in --build-dir=build. Must be executed from project root folder.

python ./scripts/run_tests.py --build-dir=build
