Test Vector and Launch Pattern File Generation for ARM-based Systems (GH200 / cuBB)

I am currently working with the NVIDIA Aerial cuBB on an ARM-based system (GH200).

From the documentation, I understand that the MATLAB-based SDK does not support ARM architectures. However, in the end-to-end demo workflow, test vectors and Launch Patterns are required for proper operation.

This has left me a bit confused:

  • How are we supposed to generate test vectors when deploying on ARM-based systems like GH200?

  • Is the recommended approach to cross-generate the test vectors on an x86_64 system (since MATLAB Runtime only supports x86), and then move them over to the ARM target?

  • Or is there an alternative ARM-native flow for TV generation that I might be missing?

Hi @kriish.sharma ,

It is correct that test vectors and launch patterns need be generated on x86_64 based system and this is due to the Matlab limitation. Note that this process needs to be done once per release.

Thank you.
