Intel Upstreams libsycl SYCL Runtime Library Into LLVM
For several years now Intel has been working on SYCL support within LLVM and various related efforts like the LLVM SPIR-V back-end as part of their oneAPI ambitions and Data Parallel C++ across their spectrum of hardware
Merged this past week thanks to Intel engineers is libsycl as a new top-level LLVM runtime project for a run-time library implementation of the SYCL specification. This is another piece to their puzzle in working on full support for the SYCL programming model within LLVM. Great seeing Intel's LLVM upstreaming efforts around SYCL/LLVM continuing even amid their ongoing restructuring.
