[Rack] CUDA on pony

I noticed there's an 8xxx series nvidia GPU in the motherboard
chipset, so I tried installing the CUDA package and it seems to work.
Tools are in /usr/local/cuda/bin.


j at pony:~$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda/bin
j at pony:~$ cat test.cu
#include <stdio.h>

const int N = 16;
const int blocksize = 16;

__global__
void hello(char *a, int *b)
{
        a[threadIdx.x] += b[threadIdx.x];
}

int main()
{
        char a[N] = "Hello \0\0\0\0\0\0";
        int b[N] = {15, 10, 6, 0, -11, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0};

        char *ad;
        int *bd;
        const int csize = N*sizeof(char);
        const int isize = N*sizeof(int);

        printf("%s", a);

        cudaMalloc( (void**)&ad, csize );
        cudaMalloc( (void**)&bd, isize );
        cudaMemcpy( ad, a, csize, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice );
        cudaMemcpy( bd, b, isize, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice );

        dim3 dimBlock( blocksize, 1 );
        dim3 dimGrid( 1, 1 );
        hello<<<dimGrid, dimBlock>>>(ad, bd);
        cudaMemcpy( a, ad, csize, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost );
        cudaFree( ad );

        printf("%s\n", a);
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
j at pony:~$ nvcc test.cu -o test
j at pony:~$ ./test
Hello Hello
