Eof error when untarring cuDNN latest tar

Accelerated Computing GPU-Accelerated Libraries

I picked up the cuDNN 5.1 tar for version 8.0 that was released on 20th January, and am unable to extract it.
Anyone else facing this issue? Any workarounds?

[b]tar tvf cudnn-8.0-linux-x64-v5.1.tgz
-r–r–r-- erisuser/users 99657 2016-07-27 11:14 cuda/include/cudnn.h
lrwxrwxrwx erisuser/users 0 2016-07-27 11:25 cuda/lib64/libcudnn.so → libcudnn.so.5

File for Cuda version 7.5 works, and cuDNN 5.0 version works.

Hi,

I had the same problem with that file and it was caused by its incomplete download. Only at the third attempt I managed to download the full file which unpacks without issues. The size of the archive shall be 100504805 bytes (100.5MB).

Please check the size of the archive file you downloaded.

Archive contains five files:

cuda/include/cudnn.h
cuda/lib64/libcudnn.so
cuda/lib64/libcudnn.so.5
cuda/lib64/libcudnn.so.5.1.5
cuda/lib64/libcudnn_static.a

Cheers,
Bojan
