This patch also remains unchanged from the last posting.

See Dave Malcolm's patch, please integrate it into your patchset.

I'd write:
"This manual documents the GNU implementation of the OpenMP API
for multi-platform shared-memory parallel programming in C/C++ and Fortran
and OpenACC and OpenMP API for offloading of code to accelerator devices
from the same languages."
or so.

If the env var name is adjusted to GACC_NOTIFY, GOACC_NOTIFY or even
GOMP_ACC_NOTIFY (as the library is libgomp), please don't forget to change
this spot too.

> +As the OpenACC library is built using the CUDA Driver API, the question has

Is it?  I thought only the nvptx plugin is.

Otherwise LGTM.

Namely, https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-11/msg01317.html


However, a grep shows also the following spots which have to be updated:

gcc/fortran/gfortran.texi-@option{-fopenmp}.  This also arranges for automatic linking of the
gcc/fortran/gfortran.texi:GNU OpenMP runtime library @ref{Top,,libgomp,libgomp,GNU OpenMP
gcc/fortran/gfortran.texi-runtime library}.
--
gcc/fortran/intrinsic.texi-@file{omp_lib.h}. The procedures provided by @code{OMP_LIB} can be found
gcc/fortran/intrinsic.texi:in the @ref{Top,,Introduction,libgomp,GNU OpenMP runtime library} manual,
gcc/fortran/intrinsic.texi-the named constants defined in the modules are listed
--
gcc/doc/sourcebuild.texi-@item libgomp
gcc/doc/sourcebuild.texi:The GNU OpenMP runtime library.
gcc/doc/sourcebuild.texi-


And, finally, one also needs to update the webserver:
   wwwdocs/htdocs/onlinedocs/index.html
which is the file
   https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/
For editing, see https://gcc.gnu.org/about.html#cvs

+@section Introduction
+
+As the OpenACC library is built using the CUDA Driver API, the question has
+arisen on what impact does using the OpenACC library have on a program that
+uses the Runtime library, or a library based on the Runtime library, e.g.,
+CUBLAS@footnote{Seee section 2.26, "Interactions with the CUDA Driver API" in
+"CUDA Runtime API", Version 5.5, July 2013 and section 2.27, "VDPAU
+Interoperability", in "CUDA Driver API", TRM-06703-001, Version 5.5,
+July 2013, for additional information on library interoperability.}.
+This chapter will describe the use cases and what changes are
+required in order to use both the OpenACC library and the CUBLAS and Runtime
+libraries within a program.
+
+@section First invocation: NVIDIA CUBLAS library API
+
+In this first use case (see below), a function in the CUBLAS library is called
+prior to any of the functions in the OpenACC library. More specifically, the
+function @code{cublasCreate()}.
+
+When invoked, the function will initialize the library and allocate the
+hardware resources on the host and the device on behalf of the caller. Once
+the initialization and allocation has completed, a handle is returned to the
+caller. The OpenACC library also requires initialization and allocation of
+hardware resources. Since the CUBLAS library has already allocated the
+hardware resources for the device, all that is left to do is to initialize
+the OpenACC library and acquire the hardware resources on the host.
+
+Prior to calling the OpenACC function that will initialize the library and
+allocate the host hardware resources, one needs to acquire the device number
+that was allocated during the call to @code{cublasCreate()}. The invoking of the
+runtime library function @code{cudaGetDevice()} will accomplish this. Once
+acquired, the device number is passed along with the device type as
+parameters to the OpenACC library function @code{acc_set_device_num()}.
+
+Once the call to @code{acc_set_device_num()} has completed, the OpenACC
+library will be using the  context that was created during the call to
+@code{cublasCreate()}. In other words, both libraries will be sharing the
+same context.
+
+@verbatim
+    /* Create the handle */
+    s = cublasCreate(&h);
+    if (s != CUBLAS_STATUS_SUCCESS)
+    {
+        fprintf(stderr, "cublasCreate failed %d\n", s);
+        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+    }
+
+    /* Get the device number */
+    e = cudaGetDevice(&dev);
+    if (e != cudaSuccess)
+    {
+        fprintf(stderr, "cudaGetDevice failed %d\n", e);
+        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+    }
+
+    /* Initialize OpenACC library and use device 'dev' */
+    acc_set_device_num(dev, acc_device_nvidia);
+
+@end verbatim
+@center Use Case 1 
+
+@section First invocation: OpenACC library API
+
+In this second use case (see below), a function in the OpenACC library is
+called prior to any of the functions in the CUBLAS library. More specificially,
+the function acc_set_device_num().
+
+In the use case presented here, the function @code{acc_set_device_num()}
+is used to both initialize the OpenACC library and allocate the hardware
+resources on the host and the device. In the call to the function, the
+call parameters specify which device to use, i.e., 'dev', and what device
+type to use, i.e., @code{acc_device_nvidia}. It should be noted that this
+is but one method to initialize the OpenACC library and allocate the
+appropriate hardware resources. Other methods are available through the
+use of environment variables and these will be discussed in the next section.
+
+Once the call to @code{acc_set_device_num()} has completed, other OpenACC
+functions can be called as seen with multiple calls being made to
+@code{acc_copyin()}. In addition, calls can be made to functions in the
+CUBLAS library. In the use case a call to @code{cublasCreate()} is made
+subsequent to the calls to @code{acc_copyin()}.
+As seen in the previous use case, a call to @code{cublasCreate()} will
+initialize the CUBLAS library and allocate the hardware resources on the
+host and the device.  However, since the device has already been allocated,
+@code{cublasCreate()} will only initialize the CUBLAS library and allocate
+the appropriate hardware resources on the host. The context that was created
+as part of the OpenACC initialization will be shared with the CUBLAS library,
+similarly to the first use case.
+
+@verbatim
+    dev = 0;
+
+    acc_set_device_num(dev, acc_device_nvidia);
+
+    /* Copy the first set to the device */
+    d_X = acc_copyin(&h_X[0], N * sizeof (float));
+    if (d_X == NULL)
+    { 
+        fprintf(stderr, "copyin error h_X\n");
+        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+    }
+
+    /* Copy the second set to the device */
+    d_Y = acc_copyin(&h_Y1[0], N * sizeof (float));
+    if (d_Y == NULL)
+    { 
+        fprintf(stderr, "copyin error h_Y1\n");
+        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+    }
+
+    /* Create the handle */
+    s = cublasCreate(&h);
+    if (s != CUBLAS_STATUS_SUCCESS)
+    {
+        fprintf(stderr, "cublasCreate failed %d\n", s);
+        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+    }
+
+    /* Perform saxpy using CUBLAS library function */
+    s = cublasSaxpy(h, N, &alpha, d_X, 1, d_Y, 1);
+    if (s != CUBLAS_STATUS_SUCCESS)
+    {
+        fprintf(stderr, "cublasSaxpy failed %d\n", s);
+        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
+    }
+
+    /* Copy the results from the device */
+    acc_memcpy_from_device(&h_Y1[0], d_Y, N * sizeof (float));
+
+}
+@end verbatim
+@center Use Case 2
+
+@section OpenACC library and environment variables
+
+There are two environment variables associated with the OpenACC library that
+may be used to control the device type and device number.
+Namely, @env{ACC_DEVICE_TYPE} and @env{ACC_DEVICE_NUM}. In the second
+use case, the device type and device number were specified using
+@code{acc_set_device_num()}. However, @env{ACC_DEVICE_TYPE} and 
+@env{ACC_DEVICE_NUM} could have been defined and the call to
+@code{acc_set_device_num()} would be not be required. At the time of the
+call to @code{acc_copyin()}, these two environment variables would be
+sampled and their values used.
+
+The use of the environment variables is only relevant when an OpenACC function
+is called prior to a call to @code{cudaCreate()}. If @code{cudaCreate()}
+is called prior to a call to an OpenACC function, then a call to
+@code{acc_set_device_num()}, must be done@footnote{More complete information
+about @env{ACC_DEVICE_TYPE} and @env{ACC_DEVICE_NUM} can be found in
+sections 4.1 and 4.2 of the “The OpenACC
+Application Programming Interface”, Version 2.0, June, 2013.}.
