  • we were not 16-byte aligning cuDoubleComplex variables. error showed up "much later" in cuGetVector (error 11) and cudaDeviceSynchronize (error 4). Did binary search to find source of error. How do we program error-checks so that run-time errors show up "immediately"? cuda_safe_call?
  • if we have 1 number used by many threads should it go into shared memory? constant memory? we would think constant memory would be the right answer. shared memory would give a bank conflict.
  • cuda-gdb generates output for kernel launches. slows down the code dramatically? becomes unusable.
  • understand crash with rpa-gpu-expt running rpa_only_Na_cuda.py with nvprof
  • how does cuda deal with memory fragmentation?
  • why does nvvp require more runs than nvprof for the same data?
  • nvvp error: "102 metrics have invalid values due to inconsistencies in the required event values"
  • double complex math: really fp64 instructions?
  • talk to Gernot Ziegler about instruction limited kernels?
  • is our zherk kernel latency limited?

  • look profiling on RPA (lin)
  • ask about error handling at GTC (lin)
  • base.py get_phi_agp kernel
  • rpa manuscript (jun)
  • k-point parallelization (cpo)
