Jetson Nano & Nsight Eclipse Edition?

Developer Tools Nsight Eclipse Edition
1

Does Jetson Nano support Nsight Eclipse Edition?
The CUDA Toolkit documentation indicates that ‘nsight’ should be in /usr/local/cuda/bin but there is none.

Where can I find Nsight Eclipse Edition?

You need to install Nsight Eclipse on the Ubuntu host machine. Then you can cross compile the apps and remote debug the applications on Jetson. Please check https://devblogs.nvidia.com/cuda-jetson-nvidia-nsight-eclipse-edition/

Hi There,

The instructions on that page don’t seem to work.

The cross stuff is not available in cuda-repo-ubuntu1804-10-1-local-10.1.105-418.39_1.0-1_amd64.deb

“sudo apt-cache search cuda-cross” returns nothing.

The only target available in /usr/local/cuda/targets/ is x86_64-linux

Can anyone help me getting nsight working on Ubuntu for the Nano?

Many thanks

Andy

Hi,

Please follow the instructions here to install the cross platform packages:

You need to install the bits using “sudo apt-get install cuda-cross-aarch64”

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

Sorry I didn’t explain myself properly.

cuda-cross-aarch64 is not contained in cuda-repo-ubuntu1804-10-1-local-10.1.105-418.39_1.0-1_amd64.deb, so apt-get install doesn’t find it. You can use apt-cache search and it also doesn’t find any of the cuda-cross components.

I got around this by using sdkmanager to install everything and that worked fine.

Cheers

Andy

Hi Andy,

Can you describe the steps for installing NSight Eclipse using sdkmanager?
Or, if available, share the link to the procedure?

I appreciate your help and thank you in advance,

Hi Sidney,

The download page is here: Jetson Download Center | NVIDIA Developer

The deb file is here: https://developer.nvidia.com/embedded/dlc/nv-sdk-manager

Instructions here: Download and Run SDK Manager :: NVIDIA SDK Manager Documentation

I just selected everything for the install, when you get to the bit to flash the Nano just cancel it the two times.

Good luck :)

Cheers

Andy

Hi Andy,

I followed the installation instructions for the sdkmanager but it didn’t work for me. Did you experience the same? If so, how did you resolve it?

$ sudo apt install ./sdkmanager_0.9.11-3405_amd64.deb

[i]Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Note, selecting 'sdkmanager:amd64' instead of './sdkmanager_0.9.11-3405_amd64.deb' Some packages could not be installed.

Hi Sidney,

No, it worked fine here.

I just had a search and found this: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1049925/error-with-installing-nvidia-sdk-manager-you-have-held-broken-packages-/

So maybe try with:

sudo dpkg -i ./sdkmanager_0.9.11-3405_amd64.deb && apt update -f

Hi Andy,

I used the links that you provided, but got the same errors as Sidney. Also tried this:

sudo dpkg -i ./sdkmanager_0.9.11-3405_amd64.deb && apt update -f

but got this error:

dpkg: error processing archive ./sdkmanager_1.3.0-7105_amd64.deb (–install):
package architecture (amd64) does not match system (arm64)

Did you do something different to install de SDKmanager?

Thanks in advance,
Carlos
