I'm not sure if it's possible. I want to study OpenCL in-depth, so I was wondering if there is a tool to disassemble an compiled OpenCL kernel.
For normal x86 executable, I can use objdump to get ...

I have a discrete NVIDIA GPU (say, Kepler or Maxwell). I want to clear my L2 cache before some kernel is scheduled, so as not to taint my test results.
I could do something like allocate a large s...
