* platforms older than Gen8 (Broadwell) - please use [Beignet driver](https://github.com/intel/beignet)
* sharing with OpenGL / EGL on Linux
## Capabilities
### How much memory is available to the application?
Actual available memory should be read from the driver capabilities using the dedicated API. The driver will report available memory depending on the type of graphics device
(discrete vs. integrated) and operating system as follows:
* discrete on Linux - 95% of device memory
* integrated on Linux - 80% of system memory
* discrete on Windows - 80% of device memory
* integrated on Windows - 80% of system memory
Ignoring these instructions may lead to undefined behavior, including abort.
