Hi ,
Thanks for your valuable suggestions.
This has been noted and we are working on the same about providing more detailed explanations in the user guide about this attribute.
Thanks and Regards
Anil
@AnilErinch_A_Intel Providing better explanation in the documentation is useful; however, it does not solve the underlying problem. What is required here is to give the users an extra attribute to control the on-chip memory replication factor for "supporting simultaneous work-groups". i.e. the possibility to control the number of work-groups the compiler would schedule simultaneously in a single compute unit. The functionality already exists in the compiler; it just needs to be exposed to the users in form of an attribute/pragma. I opened a support ticket with Altera/Intel about this exact problem years ago, but such attribute/pragma is yet to be provided.
