\brief execution control functions of the CUDA runtime API (cuda_runtime_api.h)
This section describes the execution control functions of the CUDA runtime application programming interface.
Some functions have overloaded C++ API template versions documented separately in the C++ API Routines module.
cudaError_t cudaConfigureCall (dim3 gridDim, dim3 blockDim, size_t sharedMem = 0, cudaStream_t stream = 0)
Specifies the grid and block dimensions for the device call to be executed similar to the execution configuration syntax. cudaConfigureCall() is stack based. Each call pushes data on top of an execution stack. This data contains the dimension for the grid and thread blocks, together with any arguments for the call.
Parameters:
gridDim - Grid dimensions
blockDim - Block dimensions
sharedMem - Shared memory
stream - Stream identifier
Returns:
cudaSuccess, cudaErrorInvalidConfiguration
Note:
This function uses standard semantics.
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

__cudart_builtin__ cudaError_t cudaFuncGetAttributes (struct cudaFuncAttributes * attr, const void * func)
This function obtains the attributes of a function specified via func. func is a device function symbol and must be declared as a __global__ function. The fetched attributes are placed in attr. If the specified function does not exist, then cudaErrorInvalidDeviceFunction is returned.
Note that some function attributes such as maxThreadsPerBlock may vary based on the device that is currently being used.
Parameters:
attr - Return pointer to function’s attributes
func - Device function symbol
Returns:
cudaSuccess, cudaErrorInitializationError, cudaErrorInvalidDeviceFunction
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.
Use of a string naming a function as the func parameter was deprecated in CUDA 4.1 and removed in CUDA 5.0.

cudaError_t cudaFuncSetCacheConfig (const void * func, enum cudaFuncCache cacheConfig)
On devices where the L1 cache and shared memory use the same hardware resources, this sets through cacheConfig the preferred cache configuration for the function specified via func. This is only a preference. The runtime will use the requested configuration if possible, but it is free to choose a different configuration if required to execute func.
func is a device function symbol and must be declared as a __global__ function. If the specified function does not exist, then cudaErrorInvalidDeviceFunction is returned.
This setting does nothing on devices where the size of the L1 cache and shared memory are fixed.
Launching a kernel with a different preference than the most recent preference setting may insert a device-side synchronization point.
The supported cache configurations are:
|
• |
cudaFuncCachePreferNone: no preference for shared memory or L1 (default) |
||
|
• |
cudaFuncCachePreferShared: prefer larger shared memory and smaller L1 cache |
||
|
• |
cudaFuncCachePreferL1: prefer larger L1 cache and smaller shared memory |
||
|
• |
cudaFuncCachePreferEqual: prefer equal size L1 cache and shared memory |
Parameters:
func - Device function symbol
cacheConfig - Requested cache configuration
Returns:
cudaSuccess, cudaErrorInitializationError, cudaErrorInvalidDeviceFunction
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cudaError_t cudaFuncSetSharedMemConfig (const void * func, enum cudaSharedMemConfig config)
On devices with configurable shared memory banks, this function will force all subsequent launches of the specified device function to have the given shared memory bank size configuration. On any given launch of the function, the shared memory configuration of the device will be temporarily changed if needed to suit the function’s preferred configuration. Changes in shared memory configuration between subsequent launches of functions, may introduce a device side synchronization point.
Any per-function setting of shared memory bank size set via cudaFuncSetSharedMemConfig will override the device wide setting set by cudaDeviceSetSharedMemConfig.
Changing the shared memory bank size will not increase shared memory usage or affect occupancy of kernels, but may have major effects on performance. Larger bank sizes will allow for greater potential bandwidth to shared memory, but will change what kinds of accesses to shared memory will result in bank conflicts.
This function will do nothing on devices with fixed shared memory bank size.
The supported bank configurations are:
|
• |
cudaSharedMemBankSizeDefault: use the device’s shared memory configuration when launching this function. |
||
|
• |
cudaSharedMemBankSizeFourByte: set shared memory bank width to be four bytes natively when launching this function. |
||
|
• |
cudaSharedMemBankSizeEightByte: set shared memory bank width to be eight bytes natively when launching this function. |
Parameters:
func - Device function symbol
config - Requested shared memory configuration
Returns:
cudaSuccess, cudaErrorInitializationError, cudaErrorInvalidDeviceFunction, cudaErrorInvalidValue,
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cudaError_t cudaLaunch (const void * func)
Launches the function func on the device. The parameter func must be a device function symbol. The parameter specified by func must be declared as a __global__ function. cudaLaunch() must be preceded by a call to cudaConfigureCall() since it pops the data that was pushed by cudaConfigureCall() from the execution stack.
Parameters:
func - Device function symbol
Returns:
cudaSuccess, cudaErrorInvalidDeviceFunction, cudaErrorInvalidConfiguration, cudaErrorLaunchFailure, cudaErrorLaunchTimeout, cudaErrorLaunchOutOfResources, cudaErrorSharedObjectInitFailed
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.
Use of a string naming a variable as the symbol parameter was removed in CUDA 5.0.

cudaError_t cudaSetDoubleForDevice (double * d)
Parameters:
d - Double to convert
Converts the double value of d to an internal float representation if the device does not support double arithmetic. If the device does natively support doubles, then this function does nothing.
Returns:
cudaSuccess
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cudaError_t cudaSetDoubleForHost (double * d)
Converts the double value of d from a potentially internal float representation if the device does not support double arithmetic. If the device does natively support doubles, then this function does nothing.
Parameters:
d - Double to convert
Returns:
cudaSuccess
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cudaError_t cudaSetupArgument (const void * arg, size_t size, size_t offset)
Pushes size bytes of the argument pointed to by arg at offset bytes from the start of the parameter passing area, which starts at offset 0. The arguments are stored in the top of the execution stack. cudaSetupArgument() must be preceded by a call to cudaConfigureCall().
Parameters:
arg - Argument to push for a kernel launch
size - Size of argument
offset - Offset in argument stack to push new arg
Returns:
cudaSuccess
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.
