我有一个CUDA内核,它获取边缘图像并对其进行处理,以创建一个较小的边缘像素1D阵列。现在是奇怪的行为。每次我运行内核并计算"d_nlist"中的边缘像素数(请参阅printf附近的代码)时,我每次都会得到更大的像素数,即使我使用相同的图像并完全停止程序并重新运行时也是如此。因此,每次运行它都需要更长的时间,直到最终抛出一个未捕获的异常。
我的问题是,我如何才能阻止这种情况的发生,以便每次运行内核时都能得到一致的结果?
我的设备是Geforce 620。
常数:
THREADS_X=32
THREADS_Y=4
PIXELS_PER_THREAD=4
MAX_QUEUE_LENGTH=THREADS_X*THREADS_Y*PIXELS_PER_THREAD
IMG_WIDTH=256
IMG_HEIGHT=256
IMG_SIZE=IMG_WIDTH*IMG_HEIGHT
BLOCKS_X=IMG_WIDTH/(THREADS_X*PIXELS_PER_THREAD)
BLOCKS_Y=IMG_HEIGHTY/THREADS_Y
内核如下:
__global__ void convert2DEdgeImageTo1DArray( unsigned char const * const image,
unsigned int* const list, int* const glob_index ) {
unsigned int const x = blockIdx.x * THREADS_X*PIXELS_PER_THREAD + threadIdx.x;
unsigned int const y = blockIdx.y * THREADS_Y + threadIdx.y;
volatile int qindex = -1;
volatile __shared__ int sh_qindex[THREADS_Y];
volatile __shared__ int sh_qstart[THREADS_Y];
sh_qindex[threadIdx.y] = -1;
// Start by making an array
volatile __shared__ unsigned int sh_queue[MAX_QUEUE_LENGTH];
// Fill the queue
for(int i=0; i<PIXELS_PER_THREAD; i++)
{
int const xx = i*THREADS_X + x;
// Read one image pixel from global memory
unsigned char const pixel = image[y*IMG_WIDTH + xx];
unsigned int const queue_val = (y << 16) + xx;
if(pixel)
{
do {
qindex++;
sh_qindex[threadIdx.y] = qindex;
sh_queue[threadIdx.y*THREADS_X*PIXELS_PER_THREAD + qindex] = queue_val;
} while (sh_queue[threadIdx.y*THREADS_X*PIXELS_PER_THREAD + qindex] != queue_val);
}
// Reload index from smem (last thread to write to smem will have updated it)
qindex = sh_qindex[threadIdx.y];
}
// Let thread 0 reserve the space required in the global list
__syncthreads();
if(threadIdx.x == 0 && threadIdx.y == 0)
{
// Find how many items are stored in each list
int total_index = 0;
#pragma unroll
for(int i=0; i<THREADS_Y; i++)
{
sh_qstart[i] = total_index;
total_index += (sh_qindex[i] + 1u);
}
// Calculate the offset in the global list
unsigned int global_offset = atomicAdd(glob_index, total_index);
#pragma unroll
for(int i=0; i<THREADS_Y; i++)
{
sh_qstart[i] += global_offset;
}
}
__syncthreads();
// Copy local queues to global queue
for(int i=0; i<=qindex; i+=THREADS_X)
{
if(i + threadIdx.x > qindex)
break;
unsigned int qvalue = sh_queue[threadIdx.y*THREADS_X*PIXELS_PER_THREAD + i + threadIdx.x];
list[sh_qstart[threadIdx.y] + i + threadIdx.x] = qvalue;
}
}
以下是调用内核的方法:
void call2DTo1DKernel(unsigned char const * const h_image)
{
// Device side allocation
unsigned char *d_image = NULL;
unsigned int *d_list = NULL;
int h_nlist, *d_nlist = NULL;
cudaMalloc((void**)&d_image, sizeof(unsigned char)*IMG_SIZE);
cudaMalloc((void**)&d_list, sizeof(unsigned int)*IMG_SIZE);
cudaMalloc((void**)&d_nlist, sizeof(int));
// Time measurement initialization
cudaEvent_t start, stop, startio, stopio;
cudaEventCreate(&start);
cudaEventCreate(&stop);
cudaEventCreate(&startio);
cudaEventCreate(&stopio);
// Start timer w/ io
cudaEventRecord(startio,0);
// Copy image data to device
cudaMemcpy((void*)d_image, (void*)h_image, sizeof(unsigned char)*IMG_SIZE, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
// Start timer
cudaEventRecord(start,0);
// Kernel call
// Phase 1 : Convert 2D binary image to 1D pixel array
dim3 dimBlock1(THREADS_X, THREADS_Y);
dim3 dimGrid1(BLOCKS_X, BLOCKS_Y);
convert2DEdgeImageTo1DArray<<<dimGrid1, dimBlock1>>>(d_image, d_list, d_nlist);
// Stop timer
cudaEventRecord(stop,0);
cudaEventSynchronize(stop);
// Stop timer w/ io
cudaEventRecord(stopio,0);
cudaEventSynchronize(stopio);
// Time measurement
cudaEventElapsedTime(&et,start,stop);
cudaEventElapsedTime(&etio,startio,stopio);
// Time measurement deinitialization
cudaEventDestroy(start);
cudaEventDestroy(stop);
cudaEventDestroy(startio);
cudaEventDestroy(stopio);
// Get list size
cudaMemcpy((void*)&h_nlist, (void*)d_nlist, sizeof(int), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
// Report on console
printf("%d pixels processed...n", h_nlist);
// Device side dealloc
cudaFree(d_image);
cudaFree(d_space);
cudaFree(d_list);
cudaFree(d_nlist);
}
事先非常感谢大家的帮助。
作为序言,让我建议一些有用的故障排除步骤:
- 使用正确的cuda错误检查来检测代码
- 使用
cuda-memcheck
运行代码,例如cuda-memcheck ./myapp
如果您执行以上步骤,您会发现您的内核正在发生故障,而这些故障与大小为4的全局写入有关。因此,这将把您的注意力集中在内核的最后一段,从注释// Copy local queues to global queue
开始
关于你的代码,那么,你至少有两个问题:
- 内核的最后一段中的寻址/索引(将单个队列写入全局内存)是一团糟。我不会试着为你调试这个
- 您没有将
d_nlist
变量初始化为零。因此,当你对其进行原子添加时,你就是在将你的值添加到垃圾值中,随着你重复这个过程,垃圾值往往会增加
以下是一些删除了问题的代码(我没有尝试整理您的队列副本代码),并添加了错误检查。它为我产生了可重复的结果:
