Can anyone tell me what exactly is missing from OpenCL to be able to run the primitives of deep learning frameworks? Like, does it not have some kind of operation that is essential for matrix manipulation?

Up to OpenCL 2.1 was support for C++ and Fortran, forcing everyone to either use C or generate C code from their compilers.
