Recommended/Intended Cuda Development Toolchain for Linux (Ubuntu)

I’m looking at the current 10.1.130 Release Notes and noticed that “Nsight Eclipse Edition” is deprecated in 10.1. I always used emacs, but thought that was the goto tool in order to visualize/debug/profile cuda code. I was wondering what the intended tools are now to perform these tasks on a Linux system for development, I’m relatively new to Cuda dev myself.

Would love to hear generally what kind of toolchains professional Cuda Linux devs use as well.

When researching a replacement for profiling capability of compute 7.5 with CUDA 10, I found this blurb on the nVidia web site

Yes, nvprof profiling is not supported for device with compute capability > 7.2, we suggest to use our new tools Nsight Compute CLI (command line tool) and Nsight Compute (UI) for profiling on 7.2 onward. It is available under directory.

/usr/local/cuda/NsightCompute*

It is also documented under What’s New
https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/profiler-users-guide/index.html#whats-new
