I was programming CUDA’s Hello World Program from the link below.
URL: https://cuda-tutorial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/tutorial01/
Here is code. I could compile this code, but the program did not display message “Hello World from GPU!”.
__global__ void cuda_hello(){
printf("Hello World from GPU!\n");
}
int main() {
cuda_hello<<<1,1>>>();
return 0;
}
I added the lines of code below after cuda_hello<<<1,1>>>().
cudaError_t cudaerr = cudaDeviceSynchronize();
if (cudaerr != cudaSuccess) {
printf("Kernel Error: \"%s\".\n",
cudaGetErrorString(cudaerr));
}
I compiled and executed the program again. I did not receive the error message, and I got “Hello World from GPU!” message!
Here is the entire code.
#include "cuda_runtime.h"
#include <stdio.h>
__global__ void cuda_hello(){
printf("Hello World from GPU!\n");
}
int main() {
cuda_hello<<<1,1>>>();
cudaError_t cudaerr = cudaDeviceSynchronize();
if (cudaerr != cudaSuccess) {
printf("Kernel Error: \"%s\".\n",
cudaGetErrorString(cudaerr));
}
return 0;
}
