What is CUBLAS Library?
•
BLAS
– Basic Linear Algebra Subprogram
– A library to perform basic linear algebra
– Divided into three levels
– Such as MKL BLAS,CUBLAS, C++ AMP BLAS……
•
CUBLAS
– An high level implementation of BLAS on top of the NVIDIA
CUDA runtime
– Single GPU or Multiple GPUs
– Support CUDA Stream

Three Levels Of BLAS
Level 1
This level contains vector operations of the form
y  x  y
Level 2
This level contains matrix-vector operations of the form
y   Ax   y
Level 3
This level contains matrix-matrix operations of the form
C   AB   C

Getting Started
•
Basic preparation
– Install CUDA Toolkit
– Include cublas_v2.h
– Link cublas.lib
•
Some basic tips
– Every CUBLAS function needs a handle
– The CUBLAS function must be written between cublasCreate() and
cublasDestory()
– Every CUBLAS function returns a cublasStatus_t to report the state of
execution.
– Column-major storage

Example Code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <cuda_runtime.h>
#include "cublas_v2.h" //调用CUBLAS必须包含的头文件
#define M 6
#define N 5
#define IDX2F(i,j,ld) ((((j)-1)*(ld))+((i)-1)) //按列访问数组下标
static __inline__ void modify(cublasHandle_t handle,float* m,int
ldm,int n,int p,int q,float alpha,float beta)
{
cublasSscal(handle,n-p+1,&alpha,&m[IDX2F(p,q,ldm)],ldm);
cublasSscal(handle,ldm-p+1,&beta,&m[IDX2F(p,q,ldm)],1);
}

Example Code
int main(void){
cudaError_t cudaStat;
cublasStatus_t stat;
cublasHandle_t handle;
int i,j;
float* devPtrA;
float* a=0;
a=(float*)malloc(M*N*sizeof(*a)); //在host上开辟数组空间
if (!a)
{
printf("host memory allocation failed");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}

Example Code
for (j=1;j<=N;j++)
//数组初始化

//在device上开辟内存空间
if (cudaStat != cudaSuccess)
{
printf("device memory allocation failed");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
stat = cublasCreate(&handle); //初始化CUBLAS环境
13
Example Code
if (stat != cudaSuccess)
{
printf("CUBLAS initialization failed\n");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
stat = cublasSetMatrix(M,N,sizeof(*a),a,M,devPtrA,M);
//把数据从host拷贝到device
if (stat != CUBLAS_STATUS_SUCCESS)
{
printf("data download failed");
cudaFree(devPtrA);
cublasDestroy(handle);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
modify(handle,devPtrA,M,N,2,3,16.0f,12.0f);
stat = cublasGetMatrix(M,N,sizeof(*a),devPtrA,M,a,M);
//把数据从device拷贝到host
14
Example Code
if (stat != CUBLAS_STATUS_SUCCESS)
{
printf("data upload failed");
cudaFree(devPtrA);
cublasDestroy(handle);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
cudaFree(devPtrA);
//释放指针
cublasDestroy(handle);
//关闭CULBAS环境
for (j=1;j<=N;j++)
{
for (i=1;i<=M;i++)
{
printf("%7.0f",a[IDX2F(i,j,M)]);
}
}
return EXIT_SUCCESS;

The Rusult

Some New Features
•
The handle to the CUBLAS library context is initialized using the
cublasCreate function and is explicitly passed to every subsequent library
function call. This allows the user to have more control over the library setup
when using multiple host threads and multiple GPUs.
•
The scalars a and b can be passed by reference on the host or the device,
instead of only being allowed to be passed by value on the host. This
change allows library functions to execute asynchronously using streams
even when a and b are generated by a previous kernel.
21
Some New Features
•
When a library routine returns a scalar result, it can be returned by
reference on the host or the device, instead of only being allowed to be
returned by value only on the host. This change allows library routines to be
called asynchronously when the scalar result is generated and returned by
reference on the device resulting in maximum parallelism.
22
Stream
•
Stream
– Concurrent Execution between Host and Device
•
Overlap of Data Transfer and Kernel Execution
– With devices of compute capability 1.1 or higher
– Hidden Data Transfer Time
•
Rules
– Functions in a same stream execute sequentially
– Functions in different streams execute concurrently
•

23
Parallelism with Streams
•
Create and set stream to be used by each CUBLAS routine
– Users must call function cudaStreamCreate() to create different
streams .
– Users must call function cublasSetStream() to set a stream to be
used by each individual CUBLAS routine.
•
Use asynchronous transfer function
– cudaMemcpyAsync()
24
Parallelism with Streams
start=clock();
for (int i = 0; i < nstreams; i++)
{
cudaMemcpy(d_A,A,WA*HA*sizeof(float),cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
cudaMemcpy(d_B,B,WB*WA*sizeof(float),cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
cublasSgemm(handle,CUBLAS_OP_N,CUBLAS_OP_N,WB,HA,WA,&alpha,d_B,WB,
d_A,WA,&beta,d_C,WB);
cudaMemcpy(C,d_C,WB*HA*sizeof(float),cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);
}
end=clock();
printf(“GPU Without Stream time: %.2f秒.\n", (double)(endstart)/CLOCKS_PER_SEC);
25
Parallelism with Streams
start=clock();
for (int i = 0; i < nstreams; i++)
{
cudaMemcpyAsync(d_A,A,WA*HA*sizeof(float),cudaMemcpyHostToDevice,
streams[i]);
cudaMemcpyAsync(d_B,B,WB*WA*sizeof(float),cudaMemcpyHostToDevice,
streams[i]);
cublasSetStream(handle,streams[i]);
cublasSgemm(handle,CUBLAS_OP_N,CUBLAS_OP_N,WB,HA,WA,&alpha,d_B,WB
,d_A,WA,&beta,d_C,WB);
cudaMemcpyAsync(C,d_C,WB*HA*sizeof(float),cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost)
