Emulation works, GPU doesn't. Newbie question.

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance
1

My program works perfectly in emulation mode, but as soon as I run it on the GPU is get “unspecified launch error”. Unfortunately I am not in a position to use CUDA-GDB. I have tried with different threads and block counts but have had no joy. Can anyone explain how best to go about finding out what is wrong.

Here is the relevant part of the .cubin file

lmem = 1200

smem = 84

reg  = 13

Thanks guys!

Most likely you are passing a host pointer to a kernel call. If it were a kernel resource issue (threads, registers, shared memory) you would get a different error

Amazing, that was absolutely correct. I was accidentally passing a host pointer instead of it’s device counterpart. Thanks a million.
