cl.h not found?

After a fresh clone, if I cd into OpenCL-ICD-Loader, and run

mkdir build cd build cmake ..

No problems. But if I then

make

it stops immediately with

Scanning dependencies of target OpenCL [ 3%] Building C object CMakeFiles/OpenCL.dir/loader/icd.c.o In file included from /khronos/github/OpenCL-ICD-Loader/loader/icd.c:19: /khronos/github/OpenCL-ICD-Loader/loader/icd.h:36:10: fatal error: CL/cl.h: No such file or directory 36 | #include <CL/cl.h> | ^~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/OpenCL.dir/build.make:82: CMakeFiles/OpenCL.dir/loader/icd.c.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:764: CMakeFiles/OpenCL.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:160: all] Error 2

Shouldn't I have to tell the build where the OpenCL headers are?

See https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenCL-ICD-Loader/blob/master/inc/README.txt:

Copy or symlink OpenCL headers here, inside a CL directory, so that the structure of the inc directory looks something like this:

inc/CL/cl_d3d10.h inc/CL/cl_d3d11.h inc/CL/cl_dx9_media_sharing.h inc/CL/cl_egl.h inc/CL/cl_ext.h inc/CL/cl_gl.h inc/CL/cl.h inc/CL/cl.hpp inc/CL/cl_platform.h inc/CL/opencl.h

I think you can also override the CMake variable OPENCL_ICD_LOADER_HEADERS_DIR to specify an alternate location.

This would be an excellent place to make use of CMake FetchContent, by the way, if the headers aren't present or an override specified, they can be downloaded on-demand rather than erroring out.

It just seems strange that the CTS build looks for, and tells me when it can't find the OpenCL headers, but this build doesn't.
