Question

我正在尝试编写一个使用OpenCL执行蒙特卡罗模拟的程序。我遇到了一个涉及指数的问题。当变量步骤的值变大（大约20000）时，指数的计算意外失败，程序退出“Abort Trap：6”。考虑到步骤不应影响内存分配，这似乎是一个奇怪的错误。我已经尝试将正常， alpha 和 beta 设置为0，但这并不能解决问题，但会将指针注释掉并将其替换为常数1似乎解决了这个问题。我在AWS GPU实例上运行了我的代码，它没有遇到任何问题。有没有人想知道为什么这可能是集成显卡的问题？

在较小的范围内多次执行内核，以使内核执行时间低于5秒

  float alpha = (interestRate - 0.5 * sigma * sigma) * dt;
  float beta = sigma * sqrt(dt);

  float u1;
  float u2;
  float a;
  float b;
  float normal;

  for (int j = 0; j < steps; j++) {

    random1 = MWC64X(&seed2);

    if (random1 == 0) {
      random1 = MWC64X(&seed2);
    }

    random2 = MWC64X(&seed3);

    u1 = (float)random1 / (float)0xffffffff;
    u2 = (float)random2 / (float)0xffffffff;

    a = sqrt(-2 * log(u1));
    b = 2 * M_PI * u2;

    normal = a * sin(b);

    exponent = exp(alpha + beta * normal);
    currentValue = currentValue * exponent;
    cumulativeWalk += currentValue;

Answer 1

我有一个猜测。驱动程序可能以两种方式崩溃：

我们引用了一个错误的缓冲区地址。这可能不是你的情况。
我们超时（超过TDR）。内核有几秒钟的时间可以完成。

我的钱在＃2上。如果较大的值（步长）使GPU运行时间太长，系统将终止事情。

我不熟悉Apple的Intel驱动程序的内核，但通常有一种方法可以在极端情况下禁用TDR。例如。请参阅TDR上的Windows Documenation以获取要点。（Linux驱动程序也有办法禁用它。）

通常我们希望避免运行超长的事情，并且以某种方式分解工作负载可能是个好主意，这样你自然不会遇到这个kill开关。例如。也许将“步骤”分成更小的块（传入并保存你无法重新计算的部分的状态）。
