多gpu上的MVAPICH导致Segmentation故障

Question

我在Debian 7机器上使用MVAPICH2 2.1。有多张特斯拉K40m卡。代码如下:

#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <cuda_runtime.h>
#include <mpi.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    MPI_Status status;
    int rank;
    MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
    MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &rank);
    cudaSetDevice(0);
    if (rank == 0) {
        srand(time(0));
        float* a;
        float num = rand();
        cudaMalloc(&a, sizeof(float));
        cudaMemcpy(a, &num, sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDefault);
        MPI_Send(a, sizeof(float), MPI_CHAR, 1, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
        printf("sent %fn", num);
    } else {
        float* a;
        float num;
        cudaMalloc(&a, sizeof(float));
        MPI_Recv(a, sizeof(float), MPI_CHAR, 0, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, &status);
        cudaMemcpy(&num, a, sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDefault);
        printf("received %fn", num);
    }
    cudaSetDevice(1);
    if (rank == 0) {
        float* a;
        float num = rand();
        cudaMalloc(&a, sizeof(float));
        cudaMemcpy(a, &num, sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDefault);
        MPI_Send(a, sizeof(float), MPI_CHAR, 1, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
        printf("sent %fn", num);
    } else {
        float* a;
        float num;
        cudaMalloc(&a, sizeof(float));
        MPI_Recv(a, sizeof(float), MPI_CHAR, 0, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, &status);
        cudaMemcpy(&num, a, sizeof(float), cudaMemcpyDefault);
        printf("received %fn", num);
    }
    MPI_Finalize();
    return 0;
}

简而言之，我首先将设备设置为GPU 0，发送一些东西。然后我将设备设置为GPU 1，发送一些东西。

输出如下:

sent 1778786688.000000
received 1778786688.000000
[debian:mpi_rank_0][error_sighandler] Caught error: Segmentation fault (signal 11)
[debian:mpispawn_0][readline] Unexpected End-Of-File on file descriptor 7. MPI process died?
[debian:mpispawn_0][mtpmi_processops] Error while reading PMI socket. MPI process died?
[debian:mpispawn_0][child_handler] MPI process (rank: 0, pid: 30275) terminated with signal 11 -> abort job
[debian:mpirun_rsh][process_mpispawn_connection] mpispawn_0 from node debian aborted: Error while reading a PMI socket (4)

所以第一次发送是OK的。但一旦我将设备设置为另一个GPU，然后MPI发送，砰!我想知道为什么会发生这种事。

另外，我用以下命令构建了MVAPICH。

./configure --enable-cuda --with-cuda=/usr/local/cuda --with-device=ch3:mrail --enable-rdma-cm

我启用了调试并打印了堆栈跟踪。希望这对你有帮助。

Answer 1

恐怕MVAPICH还不支持在同一进程中使用多个gpu(来源:邮件列表)。

高级内存传输操作需要存储特定于设备的结构，所以除非明确支持多设备，否则恐怕没有办法让你的代码运行。

另一方面，您当然可以通过运行a
