We would like to ask for feedback regarding testing strategies for the large
amount of OpenCL builtin function declarations.
I would like to summarise the offline discussion among OpenCL developers
regarding the testing strategies that we have chosen to implement:
-
We will go ahead with option (2) i.e. automatic generation of tests and use
of clang invocation originally proposed in reviews.llvm.org/D97869 for the fast
header mechanism based on the Tablegen definitions. -
We will enhance the testing with test files added and maintained manually
that will be checking the statistical information as explained in (2) or also
the comparison between opencl-c.h and Tablegen description (3). The latter one
(originally proposed in reviews.llvm.org/D99577) could also be useful to obtain
additional coverage for opencl-c.h testing if there is enough interest while it
is still in maintenance.
Let me know if there is any feedback on the proposed plan.
Cheers,
Anastasia
