Introduction
Carbon offers the 4.2 and 5.0 CUDA versions.
- https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-42-archive
- https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-50-archive
- http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_home_new.html
Components
There are three components to CUDA 4.2.
CUDA toolkit
- The CUDA toolkit contains the compiler
nvcc, C include files, and libraries. - Load this component as a module to compile and run applications that use GPUs on Carbon.
module load cuda
Driver
- This is a Linux kernel module (not to be confused with an environment module) plus supporting binaries and other files.
- This component is pre-installed on Carbon nodes that have a GPU.
SDK
- The GPU Computing SDK contains code samples and white papers to help you get started writing software with CUDA C/C++.
- Not necessary to merely run GPU applications.
- Available on Carbon in two forms.
- For inspection:
cd ~soft/cuda/NVIDIA_GPU_Computing_SDK-4.2 ls
- For modifying and compiling:
- Unpack the tree yourself. Supply a target directory and the CUDA directory when asked. For reference, here is what happens:
$ module load cuda $ echo $CUDA_HOME '/opt/soft/cuda-4.2.9-1 $ ~soft/cuda/dist/4.2/gpucomputingsdk_4.2.9_linux.run
