Currently, libomptarget will always perform a host-to-device memory transfer in order to update the device pointer of a PTR_AND_OBJ entry. This is not always necessary because the device pointer may have been set to the correct pointee address already, so we can eliminate the redundant memory transfer.

How to Build the LLVM* OpenMP* Offloading Runtime Library (libomptarget)
========================================================================
In-tree build:
$ cd where-you-want-to-live
Check out openmp (libomptarget lives under ./libomptarget) into llvm/projects
$ cd where-you-want-to-build
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake path/to/llvm -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=<C compiler> -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=<C++ compiler>
$ make omptarget
Out-of-tree build:
$ cd where-you-want-to-live
Check out openmp (libomptarget lives under ./libomptarget)
$ cd where-you-want-to-live/openmp/libomptarget
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake path/to/openmp -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=<C compiler> -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=<C++ compiler>
$ make
For details about building, please look at README.rst in the parent directory.
Architectures Supported
=======================
The current library has been only tested in Linux operating system and the
following host architectures:
* Intel(R) 64 architecture
* IBM(R) Power architecture (big endian)
* IBM(R) Power architecture (little endian)
* ARM(R) AArch64 architecture (little endian)
The currently supported offloading device architectures are:
* Intel(R) 64 architecture (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* IBM(R) Power architecture (big endian) (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* IBM(R) Power architecture (little endian) (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* ARM(R) AArch64 architecture (little endian) (generic 64-bit plugin - mostly for testing purposes)
* CUDA(R) enabled 64-bit NVIDIA(R) GPU architectures

Front-end Compilers that work with this RTL
===========================================
The following compilers are known to do compatible code generation for
this RTL:
- clang (from https://github.com/clang-ykt )
- clang (development branch at http://clang.llvm.org - several features still
under development)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Notices
=======
This library and related compiler support is still under development, so the
employed interface is likely to change in the future.
