CUDA multi中的并发性

2018-06-16 18:13:54

我在多GPU系统上运行一个cuda内核函数，使用4 GPU。我期望他们同时发布，但他们不是。我测量每个内核的开始时间，第二个内核在第一个内核执行完毕后开始。因此，在4 GPU上启动内核速度不会快于1单GPU。

我怎样才能让他们同时工作？

这是我的代码：

cudaSetDevice(0);
GPU_kernel<<< gridDim, threadsPerBlock >>>(d_result_0, parameterA +(0*rateA), parameterB + (0*rateB));
cudaMemcpyAsync(h_result_0, d_result_0, mem_size_result, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);

cudaSetDevice(1);
GPU_kernel<<< gridDim, threadsPerBlock >>>(d_result_1, parameterA +(1*rateA), parameterB + (1*rateB));
cudaMemcpyAsync(h_result_1, d_result_1, mem_size_result, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);

cudaSetDevice(2);
GPU_kernel<<< gridDim, threadsPerBlock >>>(d_result_2, parameterA +(2*rateA), parameterB + (2*rateB));
cudaMemcpyAsync(h_result_2, d_result_2, mem_size_result, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);

cudaSetDevice(3);
GPU_kernel<<< gridDim, threadsPerBlock >>>(d_result_3, parameterA +(3*rateA), parameterB + (3*rateB));
cudaMemcpyAsync(h_result_3, d_result_3, mem_size_result, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);

我已经做了一些实验，以实现在4 Kepler K20c GPU集群上的并发执行。我已经考虑过8测试用例，它们的相应代码以及分析器时间线在下面报告。

测试用例＃1 - “广度优先”方法 - 同步复制

- 代码 -

#include "Utilities.cuh"

#define BLOCKSIZE 128

    const int tid = threadIdx.x + blockIdx.x * blockDim.x;

    if (tid < NperGPU) for (int k = 0; k < 1000; k++) d_data[tid] = d_data[tid] * d_data[tid];

}

    gpuErrchk(cudaMalloc(&(plan.d_data), NperGPU * sizeof(T)));
}

    const int NperGPU   = 500000;
    const int N         = NperGPU * numGPUs;

    plan<double> plan[numGPUs];
    for (int k = 0; k < numGPUs; k++) createPlan(plan[k], NperGPU, k);

    double *inputMatrices = (double *)malloc(N * sizeof(double));

    // --- "Breadth-first" approach - no async
    for (int k = 0; k < numGPUs; k++) {
        gpuErrchk(cudaSetDevice(k));
        gpuErrchk(cudaMemcpy(plan[k].d_data, inputMatrices + k * NperGPU, NperGPU * sizeof(double), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice));
    }

    for (int k = 0; k < numGPUs; k++) {
        gpuErrchk(cudaSetDevice(k));
        kernelFunction<<<iDivUp(NperGPU, BLOCKSIZE), BLOCKSIZE>>>(plan[k].d_data, NperGPU);
    }

    for (int k = 0; k < numGPUs; k++) {
        gpuErrchk(cudaSetDevice(k));
        gpuErrchk(cudaMemcpy(inputMatrices + k * NperGPU, plan[k].d_data, NperGPU * sizeof(double), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost));
    }

    gpuErrchk(cudaDeviceReset());
}

可以看出，使用cudaMemcpy不能实现副本中的并发，但在内核执行中实现并发。

在相应的“深度优先”方法中实现了并发性。

结论使用异步副本可以保证并发执行，可以使用故意创建的流或使用默认流。

注意在上面的所有例子中，我都注意提供足够的工作来完成GPU，无论是在复制和计算任务方面。未能向集群提供足够的工作可能会妨碍观察并发执行。

您可能需要使用cudaMemcpyAsync 。 cudaMemcpy阻止调用，因此在完成之前它不会将执行返回到您的代码，因此您的代码在完成当前程序之前不会切换GPU。

但是，内核调用是异步的（对于CPU），所以您发布的代码可能会导致一些竞争条件（ cudaMemcpy可能会在内核完成之前开始执行）。正如注释中指出的@talonmies，由于cudaMemcpy / cudaMemcpyAsync与内核启动进入相同的流，因此所有内容都按正确的顺序执行。

我建议你使用CUDA Streams; 这里简要介绍一下使用流的MultiGPU编程。这对您的情况并不是很有帮助，但在更复杂的应用程序中使用可能非常方便，例如，如果您需要在不同设备之间同步功能调用。
