OpenMP Technical Report 9 Released

In August the OpenMP ARB announced Technical Report 9, which is a public comment draft of OpenMP 5.1.

It augments OpenMP 5.0 with full support for the C standards, with initial support for Fortran 2018, and with extensions to task dependences, SIMD constructs, the declare variant directive, and the target directives.

It also augments OpenMP 5.0 with C++ attribute specifiers, the assume, dispatch, error, interop, masked, scope, tile, and unroll directives, and iterator support for data motion clauses.

You can download the Technical Report and you are welcome to publish comments on the public forum.
