I cant see roofline tensor core

Why can’t my nsight compute see Floating Point Operations Roofline (Tensor Core)
The machine I use is V100
The version I used for profile is 2023.1.0
What I use for GUI is 2024.3.1

Have you enabled the roofline set to generate the report ?

Can you tell me how to turn on this option please?

If you are using GUI to profile, you should make sure below option are selected or choose “full”.

If you are using CLI to profile, you can add option --set roofline

I’ve already used the --set full option

I noticed you are using different version of CLI and GUI, can you try to update the CLI version ? 2023.1.0 is relatively old.

I tried to use someone else’s file in my GUI and still didn’t see tensor core roofline

The following is mine
mamba2_ge.zip (1.0 MB)

As I said before, please use newer CLI tools to collect the report.

I tried to use --set rooline and now I can see the tensor core roofline
But in my section option roofline evaluates a lot more metrics than full

Hi, @1144974269

Good to know you see the roofline now ?
What’s the remained problem now ? Can you clarify ?

Full = full report
Full != All metrics

The roofline sections require a lot of passes. In Metric Selection you can switch from Metric Sets to Metric Sections/Rules to pick individual sections. The “Sets” column will show which sections are in the full or detailed set. In your release the GPU Speed of Light Hierarchical Roofline Charts (* Precision) are only in the roofline set. Through this dialog you can include on the rooflines of interest which will reduce the required metrics.

thanks!so if i want all sections including roofline and others,I just need to use --set full ! ?

The best method is to run the commands

  • ncu --list-sets
  • ncu --list-sections

In 2024.3.0 full does not include the new roofline sections (SpeedOfLight_HiearchicalTensorRooflineChart).

This would require you to use --section to add sections and likely require you to specify --print-details=all.

ncu --list-sets
