Dear all,
I have the following unusual and strange problem:
I am running a kernel of matrix multiplication. The only deference is that I have force the kernel’s operations to run forever
global void kernel
{
while(1)
{
…
}
}
in order to keep the GPU forever busy.
The prolblem is that when I run that kernel the hard disk of system gets unmounted(!)
I know that writting an infinite while loop in the CUDA kernel might not be a good idea about GPU (in terms that the CUDA driver might kill this process) but why my hard disk keeps unmounting? How the infinite GPU execution affect the hard disk? I read and write nothing from the hard disk.
Thanks!
