[Openmp-dev] OpenMP defines __CUDA_ARCH__ for offloading, should it?

Thanks guys
Defining CUDA_ARCH on non-nvptx architectures is definitely bad. I think
Ron has a test case that used CUDA_ARCH to test for running on nvptx. I'm
trying to stop amdgcn defining it for openmp at present.

That sounds better, with the proviso that nvptx shouldn't define
AMDGCN_ARCH and amdgcn shouldn't define CUDA_ARCH.
We kind of conflate cuda and nvptx. Perhaps the macro should be NVTPX_ARCH
instead of CUDA_ARCH?
There may be no problem here. Defining CUDA macros for openmp seemed weird,
but I've since learned that cuda intrinsics work within openmp target
regions for nvptx and that seems useful.
Thanks,
Jon
