Set milestones: support CLBlast? #7

I think supporting practical libraries using OpenCL is one of the big milestone. Probably clblast or clblas may be suitable for showing benchmark results and its utility.

Are you interested in such projects and setting milestones? I want to contribute for such practical uses.

True, passing all OpenCL CTS tests is of no use, if no library is supported. I shortly tested both libraries before (see here) with some errors.

I will check again the current progress of supporting these libraries and whether a full support is even possible (e.g. no fixed too larger work-group sizes, no use of long or double). If you want to contribute to supporting these libraries in any way, you are very welcome.

Status for clBLAS:

some examples don't compile with Raspbian's gcc-4.9 (see bug)
libclBLAS and test-correctness compile sucessfully
most other examples compile and execute successfully without any output

@nomaddo @doe300 can you try my Latest Raspbian's GCC cross compilers(Both 8.2.0 & 6.3.0 gcc binaries available) for this project?

Take a look, Project homepage: https://github.com/abhiTronix/raspberry-pi-cross-compilers Project Binaries: https://sourceforge.net/projects/raspberry-pi-cross-compilers/files/

I would see the project develop further.
