Please follow the steps to download the toolkit from the Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit Download, and follow the installation instructions.

Overview

The Intel® oneAPI DPC++ Library (oneDPL) accompanies the Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler and provides high-productivity APIs aimed to minimize programming efforts of C++ developers creating efficient heterogeneous applications.

2022.6.0

News

  • oneAPI DPC++ Library Manual Migration Guide to simplify the migration of Thrust* and CUB* APIs from CUDA*.
  • radix_sort and radix_sort_by_key kernel templates were moved into oneapi::dpl::experimental::kt::gpu::esimd namespace. The former oneapi::dpl::experimental::kt::esimd namespace is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
  • The for_loop, for_loop_strided, for_loop_n, for_loop_n_strided algorithms in namespace oneapi::dpl::experimental are enforced to fail with device execution policies.

New Features

  • Added experimental inclusive_scan kernel template algorithm residing in the oneapi::dpl::experimental::kt::gpu namespace.
  • radix_sort and radix_sort_by_key kernel templates are extended with overloads for out-of-place sorting. These overloads preserve the input sequence and sort data into the user provided output sequence.
  • Improved performance of the reduce, min_element, max_element, minmax_element, is_partitioned, lexicographical_compare, binary_search, lower_bound, and upper_bound algorithms with device policies.
  • sort, stable_sort, sort_by_key algorithms now use Radix sort1 for sorting sycl::half elements compared with std::less or std::greater.

Fixed Issues

  • Fixed compilation errors when using reduce, min_element, max_element, minmax_element, is_partitioned, and lexicographical_compare with Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ compiler 2023.0 and earlier.
  • Fixed possible data races in the following algorithms used with device execution policies: remove_if, unique, inplace_merge, stable_partition, partial_sort_copy, rotate.
  • Fixed excessive copying of data in std::vector allocated with a USM allocator for standard library implementations which have allocator information in the std::vector::iterator type.
  • Fixed an issue where checking std::is_default_constructible for transform_iterator with a functor that is not default-constructible could cause a build error or an incorrect result.
  • Fixed handling of sycl device copyable for internal and public oneDPL types.
  • Fixed handling of std::reverse_iterator as input to oneDPL algorithms using a device policy.
  • Fixed set_intersection to always copy from the first input sequence to the output, where previously some calls would copy from the second input sequence.
  • Fixed compilation errors when using oneapi::dpl::zip_iterator with the oneTBB backend and C++20.

Known Issues and Limitations

New in This Release

  • histogram algorithm requires the output value type to be an integral type no larger than 4 bytes when used with an FPGA policy.

Existing Issues

See oneDPL Guide for other restrictions and known limitations.

  • When compiled with -fsycl-pstl-offload option of Intel oneAPI DPC++/C++ compiler and with libstdc++ version 8 or libc++, oneapi::dpl::execution::par_unseq offloads standard parallel algorithms to the SYCL device similarly to std::execution::par_unseq in accordance with the -fsycl-pstl-offload option value.
  • When using the dpl modulefile to initialize the user's environment and compiling with -fsycl-pstl-offload option of Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ compiler, a linking issue or program crash may be encountered due to the directory containing libpstloffload.so not being included in the search path. Use the env/vars.sh to configure the working environment to avoid the issue.
  • Compilation issues may be encountered when passing zip iterators to exclusive_scan_by_segment on Windows.
  • For transform_exclusive_scan and exclusive_scan to run in-place (that is, with the same data used for both input and destination) and with an execution policy of unseq or par_unseq, it is required that the provided input and destination iterators are equality comparable. Furthermore, the equality comparison of the input and destination iterator must evaluate to true. If these conditions are not met, the result of these algorithm calls is undefined.
  • sort, stable_sort, sort_by_key, partial_sort_copy algorithms may work incorrectly or cause a segmentation fault when used a DPC++ execution policy for CPU device, and built on Linux with Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler and -O0 -g compiler options. To avoid the issue, pass -fsycl-device-code-split=per_kernel option to the compiler.
  • Incorrect results may be produced by exclusive_scan, inclusive_scan, transform_exclusive_scan, transform_inclusive_scan, exclusive_scan_by_segment, inclusive_scan_by_segment, reduce_by_segment with unseq or par_unseq policy when compiled by Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler with -fiopenmp, -fiopenmp-simd, -qopenmp, -qopenmp-simd options on Linux. To avoid the issue, pass -fopenmp or -fopenmp-simd option instead.
  • Incorrect results may be produced by reduce, reduce_by_segment, and transform_reduce with 64-bit data types when compiled by Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler versions 2021.3 and newer and executed on GPU devices. For a workaround, define the ONEDPL_WORKAROUND_FOR_IGPU_64BIT_REDUCTION macro to 1 before including oneDPL header files.
  • std::tuple, std::pair cannot be used with SYCL buffers to transfer data between host and device.
  • std::array cannot be swapped in DPC++ kernels with std::swap function or swap member function in the Microsoft* Visual C++ standard library.
  • The oneapi::dpl::experimental::ranges::reverse algorithm is not available with -fno-sycl-unnamed-lambda option.
  • STL algorithm functions (such as std::for_each) used in DPC++ kernels do not compile with the debug version of the Microsoft* Visual C++ standard library.

The sorting algorithms in oneDPL use Radix sort for arithmetic data types and sycl::half (since oneDPL 2022.6) compared with std::less or std::greater, otherwise Merge sort.
