#### Improvements
+- SYCL compilations now default to `-std=c++17` when no explicit language
+ standard is specified. Standards below C++17 are rejected with a diagnostic.
+
+- Clang now assumes the default target for SYCL device compilation is 64-bit
+ SPIR-V and diagnoses if a non-supporting target is specified on the command
+ line. (#GH167358)
+
+- The SYCL runtime shared library has been renamed from `libsycl.so` to
+ `libLLVMSYCL.so` to align with LLVM naming conventions.
+
+- SYCL header include paths are now added automatically for both host and
+ device compilations.
