Hi all, I'm struggling to get GPU-accelerated QE to install. I'm using a Dell
T7910 with a Quadro M6000 24GB running Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon.
$CUDA_HOME is empty - I have these folders - which one do I use?
/opt/nvidia/hpc_sdk/Linux_x86_64/22.3/cuda
/usr/local/cuda-11.4
the /usr/local option doesn't contain nvfortran, just nvcc - is this important?
I've tried setting CUDA_HOME to every variation I can think of.
nvaccelinfo returns the following:
# /opt/nvidia/hpc_sdk/Linux_x86_64/22.3/compilers/bin/nvaccelinfo | grep -e
'Target' -e 'Driver'
CUDA Driver Version: 11020
Default Target: cc50
So according to the readme I should configure with the command:
./configure --enable-openmp --with-cuda=$CUDA_HOME --with-cuda-cc=35
--with-cuda-runtime=11.2 --enable-cuda-env-check=yes
When I run this, it kicks me out asking if I'm using a PGI compiler (it looks
like it can't find nvfortran and has defaulted to mpif90). If I invoke using:
./configure --enable-openmp
--with-cuda="/opt/nvidia/hpc_sdk/Linux_x86_64/22.3/cuda" --with-cuda-cc=35
--with-cuda-runtime=11.6 --enable-cuda-env-check=yes
MPIF90="/opt/nvidia/hpc_sdk/Linux_x86_64/22.3/compilers/bin/nvfortran"
F90="/opt/nvidia/hpc_sdk/Linux_x86_64/22.3/compilers/bin/nvfortran"
F77="/opt/nvidia/hpc_sdk/Linux_x86_64/22.3/compilers/bin/nvfortran"
IE supplying the absolute path to nvfortran then it does complete the
configuration process. However, when I do make all it does compile a fair
number of objects but eventually crashes out before creating the executables.
This is the last bit of the output:
lapack-3.6.1/BLAS/SRC/ztrsm.f
lapack-3.6.1/BLAS/SRC/ztrsv.f

(cp make_lapack.inc ../LAPACK/make.inc; \
cd ../LAPACK; make blaslib lapacklib); else \
(echo "no configuration file found for lapack"; \
echo "run configure from main QE dir"; exit); fi

I think it's the line in bold that's the problem (make[3]: nvfortran: Command
not found) - it's not including the full path to nvfortran so isn't able to
find it. I've set up an environment variable directing nvfortran to the correct
file, but it doesn't seem to work. Looking at the log files, it seems to be a
problem with F77 - the calls to MPIF90 and F90 seem to be redirecting to
nvfortran okay (I could be wrong about this though).
I'm guessing that if I can find the correct value to store in CUDA_HOME then
it'll work, but I've tried everything I can think of and the results are always
the same.
Any help would be gratefully received,
Steve
