2010-07-21	- reduce 3.1 sdk regression test runtimes (as per 2.3 sdk versions)	Tor Aamodt
	- add ldu support (just use ld for now) - get rid of asserts for .const[n] - status: cuda sdk 3.1 dct8x8, eigenvalues, MersenneTwister, reduction, scan still running (too slow) ocl sdk 3.1 oclQuasirandomGenerator still running (too slow) ocl sdk 3.1 oclReduction fail comparison (cuda 3.1) ocl sdk 3.1 oclMatrixMul exits mid computation ocl sdk 3.1 oclTranspose hits "clCreateBuffer - buffer already created for this host variable" ocl sdk 3.1 oclSortingNetworks fails w/ message about min workgroup size remaining 30 tests pass [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6927]
2010-07-19	OpenCL running on simulator w/ CUDA 3.1 and nvidia driver 256.35	Tor Aamodt
	[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6907]
2010-07-17	- add support for ld/st with generic addresses	Tor Aamodt
	- add support for parsing cache operators (still need to pass to timing model) [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6868]
2010-07-17	- add support for cvta and isspacep instructions (currently assuming	Tor Aamodt
	a fixed address mapping between shared,local to generic that depends upon hardware thread context used... might be interesting to explore tradeoffs at some point) - remove util.h... we don't need TRUE, FALSE anymore now that everything is C++ - remove some dead code from shader_decode [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6867]
2010-07-17	- bug fix: parsing hex int constants didn't have a-fA-F!?!	Tor Aamodt
	- modify template to use printf from kernel (this works on our Fermi card--want it working on simulator for debugging) - add support for extern function declarations (so don't try to assemble them)... printf is extern [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6862]
2010-07-16	template compiled with "make noinline=1" now parses, runs, passes	Tor Aamodt
	[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6857]
2010-07-16	adding parsing for opaque specifiers	Tor Aamodt
	[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6851]
2010-07-16	- adding placeholders for new builtin registers	Tor Aamodt
	[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6848]
2010-07-16	- add placeholders for new (e.g., PTX 2.x) directives and instructions	Tor Aamodt
	- update regression script to use compute sdk location for cuda (both distributed in one download now) [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6846]
2010-07-16	- BlackScholes passing on CUDA 3.1	Tor Aamodt
	- Added fma operation by simply calling mad, however in reality fma is supposed to be more accurate than mad. For now, properly emulating fma (to get the extra precision) isn't a priority. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6839]
2010-07-15	creating branch for adding support for CUDA 3.x and Fermi	Tor Aamodt
	[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/gpgpu_sim_research/fermi/distribution/": change = 6829]
