SYCL Academy

Exercise 7: USM Selector

In this exercise you will learn how to find a suitable device for using the USM data management model.

1.) Create a device selector

Create a custom device selector as you did in exercise 5.

2.) Check for USM support

Within this device selector check for whether the device being inspected has support for the USM device allocations.

This can be querying for the aspect::usm_device_allocations aspect.

3.) Create a queue

Once you have a device selector which will choose a device which supports USM create a queue using it to select its device, remember to handle errors.

Build And Execution Hints

For DPC++: Using CMake to configure then build the exercise:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. "-GUnix Makefiles" -DSYCL_ACADEMY_USE_DPCPP=ON -DSYCL_ACADEMY_ENABLE_SOLUTIONS=OFF -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=icx -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=icpx
make exercise_7

Alternatively from a terminal at the command line:

icpx -fsycl -o sycl-ex-7 -I../External/Catch2/single_include ../Code_Exercises/Exercise_07_USM_Selector/source.cpp
./sycl-ex-7

In Intel DevCloud, to run computational applications, you will submit jobs to a queue for execution on compute nodes, especially some features like longer walltime and multi-node computation is only available through the job queue. Please refer to the guide.

So wrap the binary into a script job_submission and run:

qsub job_submission

For AdaptiveCpp:

# <target specification> is a list of backends and devices to target, for example
# "omp;generic" compiles for CPUs with the OpenMP backend and GPUs using the generic single-pass compiler.
# The simplest target specification is "omp" which compiles for CPUs using the OpenMP backend.
cmake -DSYCL_ACADEMY_USE_ADAPTIVECPP=ON -DSYCL_ACADEMY_INSTALL_ROOT=/insert/path/to/adaptivecpp -DACPP_TARGETS="<target specification>" ..
make exercise_7

alternatively, without CMake:

cd Code_Exercises/Exercise_07_USM_Selector
/path/to/adaptivecpp/bin/acpp -o sycl-ex-7 -I../../External/Catch2/single_include --acpp-targets="<target specification>" source.cpp
./sycl-ex-7
