I want to study how to make opencl driver

If you have any plan for VC6 ?

Make Open source project or something else?

No I don't. There is no hardware specification that I am aware of, describing what is different to the VC4, and there is too much difference to simply reuse the same code. Also, since the Raspberry Pi Foundation announced Vulkan support, they will already be doing most of the heavy lifting there and maybe OpenCL can then be run on a VC6 via clvk based on that Vulkan implementation.

There’s also support for compute shaders already: https://blogs.igalia.com/itoral/2020/01/17/raspberry-pi-4-v3d-driver-gets-opengl-es-3-1-conformance/
