You will need either a desktop PC or a docking station in which you can install a suitable GPU card. Here is a list of CUDA GPUs. I suggest you use at least a GTX260 or better.

You will also need to download and install the CUDA Toolkit 3.2

A good introductory book is "CUDA by Example: An Introduction to General-Purpose GPU Programming" by Jason Sanders and Edward Kandrot. CUDA U also has online courses to help you get started programming with CUDA. See CUDA Training.

The online University of Illinois ECE 498AL course material and videos are especially good.

Tracing the GPU usage

Hello, Can give me some tips to trace the GPU usage on a solaris8 update7 box? I try to understand why a Cadcam app is so slow on my Solaris box compared to a win$ box. I guess it comes from the poor graphic card I have but i would like to emphasize it. My bench is 150sec long on a Solaris... (0 Replies)

CUDA GPU terminates process at random instances

I am trying to start troubleshooting an error on a virtual server that uses the ubuntu 14.04 OS. Basically what happens (seeming random) is that the GPU stops processing and terminates. What Imean by seeming random is that for 3 runs there is no error then on run 4 the error appears. It has... (2 Replies)

How disabling GPU?

Hi All I'm find out a way to disable the DGD: AMD Radeon HD 7470M on my Ubutu 16.04.2 LTS because radeon open source module is not capable to support this GPU and consequence the boot is very slow. I have tried serveral way with pci-stub.ids in the grub menu but not work. In general how... (11 Replies)

NAME
CUDA Runtime API Specific Functions - Functions static inline int hwloc_cudart_get_device_pci_ids (hwloc_topology_t topology , int idx, int *domain, int *bus, int *dev) static inline int hwloc_cudart_get_device_cpuset (hwloc_topology_t topology , int idx, hwloc_cpuset_t set) static inline hwloc_obj_t hwloc_cudart_get_device_pcidev (hwloc_topology_t topology, int idx) static inline hwloc_obj_t hwloc_cudart_get_device_osdev_by_index (hwloc_topology_t topology, unsigned idx) Detailed Description Function Documentation static inline int hwloc_cudart_get_device_cpuset (hwloc_topology_t topology, intidx, hwloc_cpuset_tset) [static] Get the CPU set of logical processors that are physically close to device idx. Return the CPU set describing the locality of the CUDA device whose index is idx. Topology topology and device idx must match the local machine. I/O devices detection and the CUDA component are not needed in the topology. The function only returns the locality of the device. If more information about the device is needed, OS objects should be used instead, see hwloc_cudart_get_device_osdev_by_index(). This function is currently only implemented in a meaningful way for Linux; other systems will simply get a full cpuset. static inline hwloc_obj_t hwloc_cudart_get_device_osdev_by_index (hwloc_topology_ttopology, unsignedidx) [static] Get the hwloc OS device object corresponding to the CUDA device whose index is idx. Return the OS device object describing the CUDA device whose index is idx. Return NULL if there is none. The topology topology does not necessarily have to match the current machine. For instance the topology may be an XML import of a remote host. I/O devices detection and the CUDA component must be enabled in the topology. If not, the locality of the object may still be found using hwloc_cudart_get_device_cpuset(). Note: The corresponding PCI device object can be obtained by looking at the OS device parent object. This function is identical to hwloc_cuda_get_device_osdev_by_index(). static inline int hwloc_cudart_get_device_pci_ids (hwloc_topology_t topology, intidx, int *domain, int *bus, int *dev) [static] Return the domain, bus and device IDs of the CUDA device whose index is idx. Device index idx must match the local machine. static inline hwloc_obj_t hwloc_cudart_get_device_pcidev (hwloc_topology_ttopology, intidx) [static] Get the hwloc PCI device object corresponding to the CUDA device whose index is idx. Return the PCI device object describing the CUDA device whose index is idx. Return NULL if there is none. Topology topology and device idx must match the local machine. I/O devices detection must be enabled in topology topology. The CUDA component is not needed in the topology.
