Intel's Codeplay Announces oneAPI Construction Kit For Bringing SYCL To New Hardware
https://www.phoronix.com/news/oneAPI-Construction-Kit

"This open-source project aims to help ease bringing up SYCL on new processor/accelerator architectures, particularly around HPC and AI. The oneAPI Construction Kit also has a reference implementation for RISC-V."

Zero in on Level Zero: An Open, Backend Approach to Compute Anywhere
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/zero-in-on-level-zero-oneapi-open-backend-approach.html

"Intel’s first implementation of Level Zero targets Intel GPUs. However, the vision and potential of Level Zero goes far beyond that. [...] The API is designed to work across a variety of compute devices, including CPUs, GPUs, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), and other accelerator architectures."
