Hi Matt,

not that I'm aware of any ongoing effort.

Though, I'm not an expert on Apple hardware (or software for that matter).
How would you program them right now?
Does LLVM have code generation capabilities for those GPUs?

Depending on the answers it might be reasonable to add OpenMP offloading
support (or not).
