CUDA ---- device管理

device管理

NVIDIA提供了集中凡是来查询和管理GPU device，掌握GPU信息查询很重要，因为这可以帮助你设置kernel的执行配置。

本博文将主要介绍下面两方面内容：

CUDA runtime API function
NVIDIA系统管理命令行

使用runtime API来查询GPU信息

你可以使用下面的function来查询所有关于GPU device 的信息：

cudaError_t cudaGetDeviceProperties(cudaDeviceProp *prop, int device);

GPU的信息放在cudaDeviceProp这个结构体中。

代码

#include <cuda_runtime.h>#include <stdio.h>int main(int argc, char **argv) {    　　printf("%s Starting...\n", argv[0]);int deviceCount = 0;cudaError_t error_id = cudaGetDeviceCount(&deviceCount);if (error_id != cudaSuccess) {printf("cudaGetDeviceCount returned %d\n-> %s\n",(int)error_id, cudaGetErrorString(error_id));printf("Result = FAIL\n");exit(EXIT_FAILURE);}if (deviceCount == 0) {printf("There are no available device(s) that support CUDA\n");} else {printf("Detected %d CUDA Capable device(s)\n", deviceCount);}int dev, driverVersion = 0, runtimeVersion = 0;dev =0;cudaSetDevice(dev);cudaDeviceProp deviceProp;cudaGetDeviceProperties(&deviceProp, dev);printf("Device %d: \"%s\"\n", dev, deviceProp.name);cudaDriverGetVersion(&driverVersion);cudaRuntimeGetVersion(&runtimeVersion);printf(" CUDA Driver Version / Runtime Version %d.%d / %d.%d\n",driverVersion/1000, (driverVersion%100)/10,runtimeVersion/1000, (runtimeVersion%100)/10);printf(" CUDA Capability Major/Minor version number: %d.%d\n",deviceProp.major, deviceProp.minor);printf(" Total amount of global memory: %.2f MBytes (%llu bytes)\n",(float)deviceProp.totalGlobalMem/(pow(1024.0,3)),(unsigned long long) deviceProp.totalGlobalMem);printf(" GPU Clock rate: %.0f MHz (%0.2f GHz)\n",deviceProp.clockRate * 1e-3f, deviceProp.clockRate * 1e-6f);printf(" Memory Clock rate: %.0f Mhz\n",deviceProp.memoryClockRate * 1e-3f);printf(" Memory Bus Width: %d-bit\n",deviceProp.memoryBusWidth);if (deviceProp.l2CacheSize) {printf(" L2 Cache Size: %d bytes\n",deviceProp.l2CacheSize);}printf(" Max Texture Dimension Size (x,y,z) 1D=(%d), 2D=(%d,%d), 3D=(%d,%d,%d)\n",deviceProp.maxTexture1D , deviceProp.maxTexture2D[0],deviceProp.maxTexture2D[1],deviceProp.maxTexture3D[0], deviceProp.maxTexture3D[1],deviceProp.maxTexture3D[2]);printf(" Max Layered Texture Size (dim) x layers 1D=(%d) x %d, 2D=(%d,%d) x %d\n",deviceProp.maxTexture1DLayered[0], deviceProp.maxTexture1DLayered[1],deviceProp.maxTexture2DLayered[0], deviceProp.maxTexture2DLayered[1],deviceProp.maxTexture2DLayered[2]);printf(" Total amount of constant memory: %lu bytes\n",deviceProp.totalConstMem);printf(" Total amount of shared memory per block: %lu bytes\n",deviceProp.sharedMemPerBlock);printf(" Total number of registers available per block: %d\n",deviceProp.regsPerBlock);printf(" Warp size: %d\n", deviceProp.warpSize);printf(" Maximum number of threads per multiprocessor: %d\n",deviceProp.maxThreadsPerMultiProcessor);printf(" Maximum number of threads per block: %d\n",deviceProp.maxThreadsPerBlock);printf(" Maximum sizes of each dimension of a block: %d x %d x %d\n",deviceProp.maxThreadsDim[0],deviceProp.maxThreadsDim[1],deviceProp.maxThreadsDim[2]);printf(" Maximum sizes of each dimension of a grid: %d x %d x %d\n",deviceProp.maxGridSize[0],deviceProp.maxGridSize[1],deviceProp.maxGridSize[2]);printf(" Maximum memory pitch: %lu bytes\n", deviceProp.memPitch);exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

编译运行：

$ nvcc checkDeviceInfor.cu -o checkDeviceInfor
$ ./checkDeviceInfor

输出：

决定最佳GPU

对于支持多GPU的系统，是需要从中选择一个来作为我们的device的，抉择出最佳计算性能GPU的一种方法就是由其拥有的处理器数量决定，可以用下面的代码来选择最佳GPU。

int numDevices = 0;
cudaGetDeviceCount(&numDevices);
if (numDevices > 1) {int maxMultiprocessors = 0, maxDevice = 0;for (int device=0; device<numDevices; device++) {cudaDeviceProp props;cudaGetDeviceProperties(&props, device);if (maxMultiprocessors < props.multiProcessorCount) {maxMultiprocessors = props.multiProcessorCount;maxDevice = device;}}cudaSetDevice(maxDevice);
}

使用nvidia-smi来查询GPU信息

nvidia-smi是一个命令行工具，可以帮助你管理操作GPU device，并且允许你查询和更改device状态。

nvidia-smi用处很多，比如，下面的指令：

$ nvidia-smi -L
GPU 0: Tesla M2070 (UUID: GPU-68df8aec-e85c-9934-2b81-0c9e689a43a7)
GPU 1: Tesla M2070 (UUID: GPU-382f23c1-5160-01e2-3291-ff9628930b70)

然后可以使用下面的命令来查询GPU 0 的详细信息：

$nvidia-smi –q –i 0

下面是该命令的一些参数，可以精简nvidia-smi的显示信息：

MEMORY

UTILIZATION

ECC

TEMPERATURE

POWER

CLOCK

COMPUTE

PIDS

PERFORMANCE

SUPPORTED_CLOCKS

PAGE_RETIREMENT

ACCOUNTING

比如，显示只device memory的信息：

$nvidia-smi –q –i 0 –d    MEMORY | tail –n 5
Memory Usage
Total : 5375 MB
Used : 9 MB
Free : 5366 MB

设置device

对于多GPU系统，使用nvidia-smi可以查看各GPU属性，每个GPU从0开始依次标注，使用环境变量CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES可以指定GPU而不用修改application。

可以设置环境变量CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES-2来屏蔽其他GPU，这样只有GPU2能被使用。当然也可以使用CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES-2,3来设置多个GPU，他们的device ID分别为0和1.
