I am using the xcorr function from Octave’s signal package on Linux:
https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/signal/ci/stable/tree/inst/xcorr.m
It has a bunch of fft, ifft, conj, etc in the script.
How to configure/compile Octave to use CUDA capabilities specifically for this xcorr function? Maybe using cuFFT somehow? Which gpu-accelerated library is the best for this function?
You are likely to get a better (and/or faster) answer by asking on the Octave help mailing list:

I am using Octave to calculate two-dimensional (large) fields. That uses a lot of FFTs and IFFTs. To fasten the calculation I tried the CUDA-libraries. cuBLAS (from CUDA V8.0) is working fine but has no optimisation for the FFT-Routines. The video under “Drop-in Acceleration on GPUs with Libraries” - “Learning Libraries” shows how to use the CUDA-FFT instead of FFTW. I managed to install the octave sources (V. 4.0.3) and to compile a new binary that workes well. Unfortunately I am not so familiar with coding under Linux that I managed to replace the FFTW with the CUFFT. Has anyone made this and can provide me with the changed sources/files or a “howto”? That would be very helpful!
Thanks in advance!

Can you provide me with your email address so you can explain how you performed the calculations and used NVIDIA CUDA with the Octave program? I also want to use it, and I’d like to know if there’s a way to do it with JavaScript, CSS, HTML, Python, etc. programs.
