将指针数组复制到设备内存和后端(CUDA)

Question

我试图在我的玩具示例中使用cublas函数cublasSgemmBatched.在这个例子中,我首先分配2D数组:h_AA, h_BBsize [ 6] [ 5]和h_CCsize [ 6] [ 1].之后,我将其复制到设备,执行cublasSgemmBatched并尝试将阵列复制d_CC回主机阵列h_CC.但是,我收到了一个错误(cudaErrorLaunchFailure)设备主机复制,我不确定我是否正确地将数组复制到设备中:

int main(){
    cublasHandle_t handle;
    cudaError_t cudaerr;
    cudaEvent_t start, stop;
    cublasStatus_t stat;
    const float alpha = 1.0f;
    const float beta = 0.0f;
    float **h_AA, **h_BB, **h_CC;
    h_AA = new float*[6];
    h_BB = new float*[6];
    h_CC = new float*[6];
    for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++){
        h_AA[i] = new float[5];
        h_BB[i] = new float[5];
        h_CC[i] = new float[1];
        for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++){
            h_AA[i][j] = j;
            h_BB[i][j] = j;
        }
        h_CC[i][0] = 1;
    }
    float **d_AA, **d_BB, **d_CC;
    cudaMalloc(&d_AA, 6 * sizeof(float*));
    cudaMalloc(&d_BB, 6 * sizeof(float*));
    cudaMalloc(&d_CC, 6 * sizeof(float*));
    cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(d_AA, h_AA, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
    cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(d_BB, h_BB, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
    cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(d_CC, h_CC, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
    stat = cublasCreate(&handle);
    stat = cublasSgemmBatched(handle, CUBLAS_OP_N, CUBLAS_OP_N, 1, 1, 5, &alpha,
             (const float**)d_AA, 1, (const float**)d_BB, 5, &beta, d_CC, 1, 6);
    cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(h_CC, d_CC, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
    cublasDestroy(handle);
}

所以这段代码可行,但最后一次cudaerr返回cudaErrorLaunchFailure.我试图在Github上关注这个示例代码.

谢谢

PS我不明白,是什么sizeof(float*)以及如何cudaMalloc知道每个阵列需要多少内存(就像这里我只确定1维的大小).

更新:我做到了!!:

cublasHandle_t handle;
cudaError_t cudaerr;
cudaEvent_t start, stop;
cublasStatus_t stat;
const float alpha = 1.0f;
const float beta = 0.0f;

float *h_A = new float[5];
float *h_B = new float[5];
float *h_C = new float[6];
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
    h_A[i] = i;
    h_B[i] = i;
}



float **h_AA, **h_BB, **h_CC;
h_AA = (float**)malloc(6* sizeof(float*));
h_BB = (float**)malloc(6 * sizeof(float*));
h_CC = (float**)malloc(6 * sizeof(float*));
for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++){
    cudaMalloc((void **)&h_AA[i], 5 * sizeof(float));
    cudaMalloc((void **)&h_BB[i], 5 * sizeof(float));
    cudaMalloc((void **)&h_CC[i], sizeof(float));
    cudaMemcpy(h_AA[i], h_A, 5 * sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);

    cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(h_CC, d_CC, sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
    for (int i = 0; i < 6;i++)
        cudaMemcpy(h_C+i, h_CC[i], sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
cublasDestroy(handle);

Answer 1

所以,我想出了答案(感谢@Robert Crovella):为了创建device array of pointers to device arrays(对于批量函数),首先应该创建host array of pointers to device arrays,然后将其复制到device array of pointers to device arrays.转移回主机也是如此:一个应该使用中间host array of pointers to device arrays.

cublasHandle_t handle;
cudaError_t cudaerr;
cudaEvent_t start, stop;
cublasStatus_t stat;
const float alpha = 1.0f;
const float beta = 0.0f;

float *h_A = new float[5];
float *h_B = new float[5];
float *h_C = new float[6];
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
    h_A[i] = i;
    h_B[i] = i;
}



float **h_AA, **h_BB, **h_CC;
h_AA = (float**)malloc(6* sizeof(float*));
h_BB = (float**)malloc(6 * sizeof(float*));
h_CC = (float**)malloc(6 * sizeof(float*));
for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++){
    cudaMalloc((void **)&h_AA[i], 5 * sizeof(float));
    cudaMalloc((void **)&h_BB[i], 5 * sizeof(float));
    cudaMalloc((void **)&h_CC[i], sizeof(float));
    cudaMemcpy(h_AA[i], h_A, 5 * sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
    cudaMemcpy(h_BB[i], h_B, 5 * sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
}
float **d_AA, **d_BB, **d_CC;
cudaMalloc(&d_AA, 6 * sizeof(float*));
cudaMalloc(&d_BB, 6 * sizeof(float*));
cudaMalloc(&d_CC, 6 * sizeof(float*));
cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(d_AA, h_AA, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(d_BB, h_BB, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(d_CC, h_CC, 6 * sizeof(float*), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
stat = cublasCreate(&handle);
    stat = cublasSgemmBatched(handle, CUBLAS_OP_N, CUBLAS_OP_N, 1, 1, 5, &alpha, 
             (const float**)d_AA, 1, (const float**)d_BB, 5, &beta, d_CC, 1, 6);
    cudaerr = cudaMemcpy(h_CC, d_CC, sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
    for (int i = 0; i < 6;i++)
        cudaMemcpy(h_C+i, h_CC[i], sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
cublasDestroy(handle);
