Function Documentation

__cudaCheckError()

void __cudaCheckError	(	const char *	file,
		const int	line
	)

Check if there's been an error.

This function checks if there has been any CUDA runtime API error and reports it.

Parameters

file	The file name where the error occurred.
line	The line number where the error occurred.

Definition at line 18 of file gpuUtils.cu.

                                                          {
// **************************************************
#ifdef CUDA_ERROR_CHECK
  cudaError err = cudaGetLastError();
  if (cudaSuccess != err) {
    fprintf(stderr, "%s failed at %s:%i : %s\n", __func__, file, line, cudaGetErrorString(err));
    throw;
  }
 
  // More careful checking. However, this will affect performance.
  // Comment away if needed.
  err = cudaDeviceSynchronize();
  if (cudaSuccess != err) {
    fprintf(stderr, "%s with sync failed at %s:%i : %s\n", __func__, file, line, cudaGetErrorString(err));
    throw;
  }
#endif
}

__cudaSafeCall()

void __cudaSafeCall	(	cudaError	err,
		const char *	file,
		const int	line
	)

Check for a safe call on GPU.

Todo:

KS: There is plenty of useful stuff here https://github.com/NVIDIA/cuda-samples/blob/master/Samples/1_Utilities/deviceQuery/deviceQuery.cpp

KS: We might want to port some of these utilities, for example having bool if there is unified memory etc.

This function checks the error status returned by CUDA runtime API functions and reports any errors.

Parameters

err	The CUDA error code.
file	The file name where the error occurred.
line	The line number where the error occurred.
