Public bug reported:
Please sync nvidia-cuda-toolkit 8.0.44-1 (multiverse) from Debian
experimental (non-free)
Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
New upstream version with support for the latest GPU devices.
* Support for the Pascal GPU architecture, including the new Tesla P100, P40,
and P4 accelerators;
* New Unified Memory capabilities;
* Native FP16 and INT8 computation for deep learning and other workloads;
* The new nvGRAPH GPU-Accelerated Graph Analytics library;
* Powerful new profiling capabilities;
* Improved compiler performance and heterogeneous lambda support; and
* Expanded developer platform support including Microsoft Visual Studio 2015
(updates 2 and 3) and GCC 5.4 (Ubuntu 16.04).
The packages contain pre-compiled binaries so there is no opportunity to
backport fixes from future versions, so shipping the newest possible version in
Ubuntu is desirable.
Note:
This has not been uploaded to Experimental yet (it was only released on
2016-09-29) and will need to clear Debian NEW, so I may end up uploading
8.0.44-0ubuntu1 directly (but using the same orig.tar.xz) as was done for LP:
#1554716
I will tests snapshots of Debian's SVN in a PPA for amd64 and ppc64el.
Reverse-dependencies that need to be rebuilt: eztrace-contrib, hwloc-contrib,
pycuda and starpu-contrib.
