Hi,
For IVB, I just checked the 3.18-rc1, it has the following patch:
commit c9224faa59c3071ecfa2d4b24592f4eb61e57069
Author: Brad Volkin <bradley.d.volkin@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue Jun 17 14:10:34 2014 -0700
drm/i915: Add some L3 registers to the parser whitelist
Beignet needs these in order to program the L3 cache config for
OpenCL workloads, particularly when using SLM.
Signed-off-by: Brad Volkin <bradley.d.volkin@xxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx>
So, beignet should work fine with 3.18 on IVB/BYT.
But for the HSW，I'm not quite sure when we could get a workable vanilla
kernel. Something I found at the intel-gfx mail list as below and it doesn't
sound good.

CC to intel-gfx mail list. Hope we can get an official anwser here.
Thanks,
Zhigang Gong.
