CUFILES (aka GPUDirect Storage) included in the runtime-type of CUDA installer for Ubuntu?

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Setup and Installation

I ran file ”cuda_11.5.1_495.29.05_linux.run" and extracted files, but I don’t think libcufile(s) are included.
After extracting from similar file “cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-11-5-local_11.5.1-495.29.05-1_amd64.deb”, I found the following files

libcufile-11-5_1.1.1.25-1_amd64.deb 
libcufile-dev-11-5_1.1.1.25-1_amd64.deb

Would you like to share me how to extract libcufile from ”cuda_11.5.1_495.29.05_linux.run" , please?

Dear, @rs277 -san

I did “!..run --tar mxvf”, however, no “cufiles” found.

$ ./cuda_11.5.1_495.29.05_linux.run  --tar mxvf

These files are not part of the toolkit. There is a seperate process for installing GDS into an existing toolkit installation, outlined here:

Did you check “Magnum IO GPUDirect Storage | NVIDIA Developer”?

It says that “VIDIA Magnum IO GPUDirect® Storage (GDS) is now part of CUDA”.

Indeed, libcufile-11-5_1.1.1.25-1_amd64.deb and libcufile-dev-11-5_1.1.1.25-1_amd64.deb can be extracted from cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-11-5-local_11.5.1-495.29.05-1_amd64.deb.

You may get an answer by emailing the address at the bottom of the “Magnum” page you linked.
