Unknown error while trying to change byte

Hi,

I’m trying to change an image in a kernel function. Whenever I try to change the image, CUDA reports an “unknown error”.

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) void invert(unsigned char* img, int startX, int startY, int stopX, int stopY, int pixelSize, int stride, int img_length) {

	// Filter values

	int filterStart = startY * stride + startX * pixelSize;

	int filterWidth = stopX - startX;

	int filterHeight = stopY - startY;

	// Threads properties

	int threads = 256;

	int blocks = filterHeight / threads + 1;

	// Debug information

	printf("blocks: %d threads: %d \n", blocks, threads);

	printf("invert => filterHeight: %d filterWidth: %d filterStart: %d pixelSize: %d stride: %d img_length: %d \n", filterHeight, filterWidth, filterStart, pixelSize, stride, img_length);

	// Allocate memory on device

	int* img_d;

	cudaMalloc(&img_d, img_length);

	// Copy complete image to device

	cudaMemcpy(img_d, img, img_length, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);

	// Call kernel function for each line

	invertCuda<<<blocks, threads>>>(img, filterHeight, filterWidth, filterStart, pixelSize, stride);

	printf("%s\n", cudaGetErrorString(cudaPeekAtLastError()));

	printf("%s\n", cudaGetErrorString(cudaThreadSynchronize()));

	// Copy image back to host

	cudaMemcpy(img, img_d, img_length, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);

}

__global__ void invertCuda(unsigned char* img, int filterHeight, int filterWidth, int filterStart, int pixelSize, int stride) {

	img[100] = 0;

}

Output is:

blocks: 1 threads: 256

invert => filterHeight: 30 filterWidth: 40 filterStart: 28845 pixelSize: 3 stride: 1920 img_length: 921600

no error

unknown error

This fault only happens, if I try to change something in the image array.

You are passing the host memory version of the image to the kernel, not the device memory copy you are making.
