Shifts are 'modular' like this on any processor architecture you're likely to encounter. The only exception is the PowerPC line of processors, which allow one more bit to figure into the shift amount, so that e.g. a shift greater than 31 will zero a register.

[QUOTE=jasonp;265493]Shifts are 'modular' like this on any processor architecture you're likely to encounter.[/QUOTE]
ARM doesn't behave that way, but that perhaps doesn't fall into the "likely to encounter" category.

FWIW I had a bug in some MP code when compiled with MS C compiler where a right shift by 32 was considered as a NOP. That can be considered as a legal treatment given that the ANSI C standard leaves shift amounts >= size of operands as undefined.

Well, I took that over from mfaktc, and we all know that it works there ... so you have another exception :smile:

And I learned something :grin:

I also happen to program for ARM a little, but on higher level. I don't think I had to use bit-shifts there so far ...

But most importantly, I completed first tests with the vectorized barretts. Extending the previous list:
[QUOTE=Bdot;265388]
76 M/s mfakto_cl_71_4: 3x24-bit, 4-vectored kernel
68 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett79: 2.5x32-bit unvectored barrett kernel
53 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett92: 3x32-bit unvectored barrett kernel
44 M/s mfakto_cl_71: 3x24-bit unvectored kernel
[/QUOTE]
96 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett79_8: 2.5x32-bit 8-vectored barrett kernel
92 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett79_2: 2.5x32-bit 2-vectored barrett kernel
88 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett79_4: 2.5x32-bit 4-vectored barrett kernel
72 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett92_8: 3x32-bit 8-vectored barrett kernel
71 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett92_4: 3x32-bit 4-vectored barrett kernel
70 M/s mfakto_cl_barrett92_2: 3x32-bit 2-vectored barrett kernel

Now it would be interesting how a 24-bit vectored barrett kernel would do ...

Anyone running a HD4xxx?
 

I'd like to see what capabilities a HD4xxx has. Would anyone in possession of such a GPU please post the output of clinfo? I'm mostly interested in the "Extensions:" part, but if you could pm me the full output that'd be nice too.

clinfo is part of the AMD-APP-SDK ...

Thanks a lot ...

Thanks, so there is really no atomics available. I'll try to make mfakto adjust automatically ...

Status
 

Just a short update (so you don't think I've lost interest :smile:):

After I upgraded my ATI drivers to a [URL="http://developer.amd.com/tools/gDEBugger/Pages/default.aspx#download"]pre-version of Catalyst 11.7[/URL] the barrett92 kernel does not find any factors anymore (72-bit and barrett79 are still fine). I'm currently (re-)introducing Oliver's MODBASECASE checks that I skipped so far.

George has already enabled primenet's manual page for mfakto's results, but as (parts of) mfakto are broken with the new driver (or compiler?), I need to delay mfakto's "official release".

Going back to 11.6 is of no use as it has serious issues with the kernel files as they were growing bigger, and 11.7 does not lock up my machine anymore - so there are improvements ...

mfakto Release!
 

After I found and fixed the last (?) serious bugs in mfakto, all tests finished as they should. Therefore:

[B]mfakto 0.07 releases[/B]

This is the first version going public, let me know of any issues.

Attached are the Windows 32-bit and 64-bit binaries. Source will follow right away, Linux (SuSE 11.4) will come tomorrow.

mfakto 0.07 sources

Can you also please post the correct versions of OpenCL.dll and any other dll's that are required? Thanks.

isn' t open-cl supposed to work on nvidia and radeon card?
