CUDA Driver

Running a CUDA application requires the system with at least one CUDA capable GPU and a driver that is compatible with the CUDA Toolkit. See Table 3. For more information various GPU products that are CUDA capable, visit https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus.

Each release of the CUDA Toolkit requires a minimum version of the CUDA driver. The CUDA driver is backward compatible, meaning that applications compiled against a particular version of the CUDA will continue to work on subsequent (later) driver releases.

More information on compatibility can be found at https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-c-best-practices-guide/index.html#cuda-compatibility-and-upgrades.

Note: Starting with CUDA 11.0, the toolkit components are individually versioned, and the toolkit itself is versioned as shown in the table below.

The minimum required driver version for CUDA minor version compatibility is shown below. CUDA minor version compatibility is described in detail in https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/cuda-compatibility/index.html

For convenience, the NVIDIA driver is installed as part of the CUDA Toolkit installation. Note that this driver is for development purposes and is not recommended for use in production with Tesla GPUs.

For running CUDA applications in production with Tesla GPUs, it is recommended to download the latest driver for Tesla GPUs from the NVIDIA driver downloads site at https://www.nvidia.com/drivers.

During the installation of the CUDA Toolkit, the installation of the NVIDIA driver may be skipped on Windows (when using the interactive or silent installation) or on Linux (by using meta packages).

For more information on customizing the install process on Windows, see https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-microsoft-windows/index.html#install-cuda-software.

For meta packages on Linux, see https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-installation-guide-linux/index.html#package-manager-metas.

1.2. New Features

This section lists new general CUDA and CUDA compilers features.

1.2.1. General CUDA

1.2.2. CUDA Compilers

  • NVCC has added support for host compiler: GCC 12.2, NVC++ 22.11, Clang 15.0, VS2022 17.4

  • Breakpoint and single stepping behavior for a multi-line statement in device code has been improved, when code is compiled with nvcc using gcc/clang host compiler compiler or when compiled with NVRTC on non-Windows platforms. The debugger will now correctly breakpoint and single-step on each source line of the multiline source code statement.

  • PTX has exposed a new special register in the public ISA, which can be used to query total size of shared memory which includes user shared memory and SW reserved shared memory.

  • NVCC and NVRTC now show preprocessed source line and column info in a diagnostic to help users to understand the message and identify the issue causing the diagnostic. The source line and column info can be turned off with --brief-diagnostics=true.

1.2.3. CUDA Developer Tools

  • For changes to nvprof and Visual Profiler, see the changelog.

  • For new features, improvements, and bug fixes in CUPTI, see the changelog.

  • For new features, improvements, and bug fixes in Nsight Compute, see the changelog.

  • For new features, improvements, and bug fixes in Compute Sanitizer, see the changelog.

  • For new features, improvements, and bug fixes in CUDA-GDB, see the changelog.

1.3. Deprecated or Dropped Features

Features deprecated in the current release of the CUDA software still work in the current release, but their documentation may have been removed, and they will become officially unsupported in a future release. We recommend that developers employ alternative solutions to these features in their software.

General CUDA

  • None.

CUDA Tools

  • None.

CUDA Compiler

  • None.

1.4. Known Issues

1.4.1. General CUDA Known Issues

  • For a cross-compile toolkit (such as linux64 host, aarch64 target), we are missing the host-side stub library for libnvJitLink. As a workaround, you can copy the libnvJitlink.so from the target install (for example, /usr/local/cuda-12.1/targets/aarch64-linux/lib/libnvJitLink.so) to the host install (/usr/local/cuda-12.1/targets/aarch64-linux/lib/stubs/libnvJitLink.so). Similarly if you are using the static library version (/usr/local/cuda-12.1/targets/aarch64-linux/lib/libnvJitLink_static.a), can copy it from the target install (i.e. install on the device) to the same path on the host install. For a sbsa cross-compile replace aarch64 with sbsa in the above copies.

  • Due to an issue in the way CUDA processes memory attachment for NVLink multicast allocations, memory must be aligned to 512MB. Alignments below this will result in a failure to attach and an error issued by the driver.

1.4.2. CUDA Compiler Known Issues

  • There is an issue regarding the handling of -split-compile=0 in nvcc and nvlink. In nvcc, split compilation will be disabled when given the value of ‘0’, whereas in nvlink, ‘0’ is the default value for split compilation when invoked for Link Time Optimization (LTO). This issue will be addressed in a subsequent update.

  • nvJitLink static and stub library for dynamic linking are not part of the cross-compilation builds of Aarch64-Jetson and arm64-sbsa. This will be resolved in a future release.

2. CUDA Libraries

This section covers CUDA Libraries release notes for 12.x releases.

  • CUDA Math Libraries toolchain uses C++11 features, and a C++11-compatible standard library (libstdc++ >= 20150422) is required on the host.

  • Support for the following compute capabilities is removed for all libraries:

    • sm_35 (Kepler)

    • sm_37 (Kepler)

2.1. cuBLAS Library

2.1.1. cuBLAS: Release 12.0 Update 1

  • New Features

    • Improve performance on NVIDIA H100 SXM and NVIDIA H100 PCIe GPUs.

  • Known Issues

    • For optimal performance on NVIDIA Hopper architecture, cuBLAS needs to allocate a bigger internal workspace (64 MiB) than on the previous architectures (8 MiB). In the current and previous releases, cuBLAS allocates 256 MiB. This will be addressed in a future release. A possible workaround is to set the CUBLAS_WORKSPACE_CONFIG environment variable to :32768:2 when running cuBLAS on NVIDIA Hopper architecture.

  • Resolved Issues

    • Reduced cuBLAS host-side overheads caused by not using the cublasLt heuristics cache. This began in the CUDA Toolkit 12.0 release.

    • Added forward compatible single precision complex GEMM that does not require workspace.

2.1.2. cuBLAS: Release 12.0

  • New Features

    • cublasLtMatmul now supports FP8 with a non-zero beta.

    • Added int64 APIs to enable larger problem sizes; refer to 64-bit integer interface.

    • Added more Hopper-specific kernels for cublasLtMatmul with epilogues:

      • CUBLASLT_EPILOGUE_BGRAD{A,B}

      • CUBLASLT_EPILOGUE_{RELU,GELU}_AUX

      • CUBLASLT_EPILOGUE_D{RELU,GELU}

    • Improved Hopper performance on arm64-sbsa by adding Hopper kernels that were previously supported only on the x86_64 architecture for Windows and Linux.

  • Known Issues

    • There are no forward compatible kernels for single precision complex gemms that do not require workspace. Support will be added in a later release.

  • Resolved Issues

    • Fixed an issue on NVIDIA Ampere architecture and newer GPUs where cublasLtMatmul with epilogue CUBLASLT_EPILOGUE_BGRAD{A,B} and a nontrivial reduction scheme (that is, not CUBLASLT_REDUCTION_SCHEME_NONE) could return incorrect results for the bias gradient.

    • cublasLtMatmul for gemv-like cases (that is, m or n equals 1) might ignore bias with the CUBLASLT_EPILOGUE_RELU_BIAS and CUBLASLT_EPILOGUE_BIAS epilogues.

    Deprecations

    • Disallow including cublas.h and cublas_v2.h in the same translation unit.

    • Removed:

      • CUBLAS_MATMUL_STAGES_16x80 and CUBLAS_MATMUL_STAGES_64x80 from cublasLtMatmulStages_t. No kernels utilize these stages anymore.

      • cublasLt3mMode_t, CUBLASLT_MATMUL_PREF_MATH_MODE_MASK, and CUBLASLT_MATMUL_PREF_GAUSSIAN_MODE_MASK from cublasLtMatmulPreferenceAttributes_t. Instead, use the corresponding flags from cublasLtNumericalImplFlags_t.

      • CUBLASLT_MATMUL_PREF_POINTER_MODE_MASK, CUBLASLT_MATMUL_PREF_EPILOGUE_MASK, and CUBLASLT_MATMUL_PREF_SM_COUNT_TARGET from cublasLtMatmulPreferenceAttributes_t. The corresponding parameters are taken directly from cublasLtMatmulDesc_t.

      • CUBLASLT_POINTER_MODE_MASK_NO_FILTERING from cublasLtPointerModeMask_t. This mask was only applicable to CUBLASLT_MATMUL_PREF_MATH_MODE_MASK which was removed.

2.2. cuFFT Library

2.2.1. cuFFT: Release 12.1

  • New Features

    • Improved performance on Hopper GPUs for hundreds of FFTs of sizes ranging from 14 to 28800. The improved performance spans over 542 cases across single and double precision for FFTs with contiguous data layout.

  • Known Issues

    • Starting from CUDA 11.8, CUDA Graphs are no longer supported for callback routines that load data in out-of-place mode transforms. An upcoming release will update the cuFFT callback implementation, removing this limitation. cuFFT deprecated callback functionality based on separate compiled device code in cuFFT 11.4.

  • Resolved Issues

    • cuFFT no longer produces errors with compute-sanitizer at program exit if the CUDA context used at plan creation was destroyed prior to program exit.

2.2.2. cuFFT: Release 12.0 Update 1

  • Resolved Issues

    • Scratch space requirements for multi-GPU, single-batch, 1D FFTs were reduced.

2.2.3. cuFFT: Release 12.0

  • New Features

    • PTX JIT kernel compilation allowed the addition of many new accelerated cases for Maxwell, Pascal, Volta and Turing architectures.

  • Known Issues

  • Resolved Issues

    • cuFFT plans had an unintentional small memory overhead (of a few kB) per plan. This is resolved.

2.3. cuSPARSE Library

2.3.1. cuSPARSE: Release 12.0

  • New Features

    • JIT LTO functionalities (cusparseSpMMOp()) switched from driver to nvJitLto library. Starting from CUDA 12.0 the user needs to link to libnvJitLto.so, see cuSPARSE documentation. JIT LTO performance has also been improved for cusparseSpMMOpPlan().

    • Introduced const descriptors for the Generic APIs, for example, cusparseConstSpVecGet(). Now the Generic APIs interface clearly declares when a descriptor and its data are modified by the cuSPARSE functions.

    • Added two new algorithms to cusparseSpGEMM() with lower memory utilization. The first algorithm computes a strict bound on the number of intermediate product, while the second one allows partitioning the computation in chunks.

    • Added int8_t support to cusparseGather(), cusparseScatter(), and cusparseCsr2cscEx2().

    • Improved cusparseSpSV() performance for both the analysis and the solving phases.

    • Improved cusparseSpSM() performance for both the analysis and the solving phases.

    • Improved cusparseSDDMM() performance and added support for batch computation.

    • Improved cusparseCsr2cscEx2() performance.

  • Resolved Issues

    • cusparseSpSV() and cusparseSpSM() could produce wrong results.

    • cusparseDnMatGetStridedBatch() did not accept batchStride == 0.

  • Deprecations

    • Removed deprecated CUDA 11.x APIs, enumerators, and descriptors.

2.4. Math Library

2.4.1. CUDA Math: Release 12.1

  • New Features

    • Performance and accuracy improvements in atanf, acosf, asinf, sinpif, cospif, powf, erff, and tgammaf.

2.4.2. CUDA Math: Release 12.0

  • New Features

    Known Issues

    • Double precision inputs that cause the double precision division algorithm in the default ‘round to nearest even mode’ produce spurious overflow: an infinite result is delivered where DBL_MAX 0x7FEF_FFFF_FFFF_FFFF is expected. Affected CUDA Math APIs: __ddiv_rn(). Affected CUDA language operation: double precision / operation in the device code.

  • Deprecations

    • All previously deprecated undocumented APIs are removed from CUDA 12.0.

2.5. NVIDIA Performance Primitives (NPP)

2.5.1. NPP: Release 12.0

  • Deprecations

    • Deprecating non-CTX API support from next release.

  • Resolved Issues

    • A performance issue with the NPP ResizeSqrPixel API is now fixed and shows improved performance.

2.6. nvJPEG Library

2.6.1. nvJPEG: Release 12.0

  • New Features

    • Immproved the GPU Memory optimisation for the nvJPEG codec.

  • Resolved Issues

    • An issue that causes runtime failures when nvJPEGDecMultipleInstances was tested with a large number of threads is resolved.

    • An issue with CMYK four component color conversion is now resolved.

  • Known Issues

    • Backend NVJPEG_BACKEND_GPU_HYBRID - Unable to handle bistreams with extra scans lengths.

  • Deprecations

    • The reuse of Huffman table in Encoder (nvjpegEncoderParamsCopyHuffmanTables).
