Hi Tom,

Runtime contains the host runtime, most of the OpenMP functionality is
implemented there. Offload is a library for offloading to Xeon Phi, whereas
libomptarget is a device agnostic offload library which currently supports
offloading to CUDA and generic 64bit systems using the ELF executable
format.

Hi,

I'm new to OpenMP, and I'm wondering if someone could give me a quick
overview of the difference between the runtime, offload, and libomptarget
directories in the openmp source tree.

Thanks,
Tom
