christian,
as of recently, i have to use the code in the USER-CUDA
package with enforcing the thread per atom strategy or
else i'm getting the dreaded "unspecified launch failure".
as a workaround, i am using this:
package cuda gpu/node 4 override/bpa 0
i am positing this to the lammps mailing list, since
i wonder if i am the only one seeing this, or have
others chime in and let us know whether or not
this works and under which compilation flags and
with which hardware they run. it is not that big of
an issue for me right now, since for my current
application, the GPU package is actually
performing a bit faster with 2x oversubscribing the
GPUs, but it is annoying and should be tracked
down and fixed.
this is with CUDA 4.1 and libcuda.a compiled
for mixed precision and happens on different
machines and with both consumer and tesla
generation 2.0 hardware.
let me know, if you need anything else.
cheers,
axel.
Hi Axel
can you send me your input script. I had one other incident reported, and have seen that myself as well - but cant reproduce it with my current configuration. If you got a reproduction case I'd be happy to get that.
Best regards
Christian
-------- Original-Nachricht --------
i have two, albeit very similar ones.
i don't want to post them to the list, since the
smaller one is over 20 MB compressed.
you can either grab them from the NCSA forge
machine or i dump them on our local webserver.
let me know which way of transport your prefer.
thanks,
axel.
btw: here is the output:
