NAME¶

ispc - Intel Implicit SPMD Program Compiler

SYNOPSIS¶

ispc [options] file

DESCRIPTION¶

ispc is a compiler for a variant of the C programming language, with extensions for single program, multiple data programming. Under the SPMD model, the programmer writes a program that generally appears to be a regular serial program, though the execution model is actually that a number of program instances execute in parallel on the hardware.

OPTIONS¶

--addressing {32,64}

Select 32- or 64-bit addressing. (Note that 32-bit addressing calculations are done by default, even on 64-bit target architectures.)

-h <name> / --header-outfile <name>

Output filename for header

-I <path>

Add <path> to #include file search path

--ignore-preprocessor-errors

Suppress errors from the preprocessor

--instrument

Emit instrumentation to gather performance data

--math-lib <option>

Select math library

-MMM <filename>

Write #include dependencies to given file.

-M

Output a rule suitable for make describing the dependencies of the main source file to stdout.

-MF <filename>

When used with -M, specifies a file to write the dependencies to.

-MT <filename>

When used with -M, changes the target of the rule emitted by dependency generation.

--no-omit-frame-pointer
