David Anderson	6b1a0731f1	client: don't try to run OpenCL jobs on non-OpenCL GPUs Suppose - the host has 2 GPUs of same vendor; A is OpenCL capable, B isn't - the volunteer sets "use_all_gpus" config flag Then the client will try to run OpenCL jobs on B. Depending on how the app is written, it may run on B and fail, or run on A and overload A. Solution: when assigning GPUs to OpenCL jobs, check that the GPU instance is OpenCL capable. Note: this problem would go away if we treated each GPU as a separate resource.	2014-05-02 12:04:05 -07:00

client: don't try to run OpenCL jobs on non-OpenCL GPUs

Suppose
- the host has 2 GPUs of same vendor; A is OpenCL capable, B isn't
- the volunteer sets "use_all_gpus" config flag
Then the client will try to run OpenCL jobs on B.
Depending on how the app is written,
it may run on B and fail, or run on A and overload A.

Solution: when assigning GPUs to OpenCL jobs,
check that the GPU instance is OpenCL capable.

Note: this problem would go away if we treated each GPU as a separate resource.
