a reference to the optimizer

We currently supports the following optimization algorithms to capture a user-described cudaFlow:

- tf::cudaFlowSequentialOptimizer

- tf::cudaFlowRoundRobinOptimizer

- tf::cudaFlowLinearOptimizer

By default, tf::cudaFlowCapturer uses the round-robin optimization algorithm with four streams to transform a user-level graph into a native CUDA graph.

cudaGraph_t cudaGraph_t tf::cudaFlowCapturer::capture () capture tf::cudaFlowCapturer::capture

captures the cudaFlow and turns it into a CUDA Graph

void void tf::cudaFlowCapturer::run (cudaStream_t stream) run tf::cudaFlowCapturer::run cudaStream_t stream

offloads the cudaFlowCapturer onto a GPU asynchronously via a stream

stream

stream for performing this operation

Offloads the present cudaFlowCapturer onto a GPU asynchronously via the given stream.

An offloaded cudaFlowCapturer forces the underlying graph to be instantiated. After the instantiation, you should not modify the graph topology but update node parameters.

cudaGraph_t cudaGraph_t tf::cudaFlowCapturer::native_graph () native_graph tf::cudaFlowCapturer::native_graph

acquires a reference to the underlying CUDA graph

cudaGraphExec_t cudaGraphExec_t tf::cudaFlowCapturer::native_executable () native_executable tf::cudaFlowCapturer::native_executable

acquires a reference to the underlying CUDA graph executable

class to create a cudaFlow graph using stream capture

The usage of tf::cudaFlowCapturer is similar to tf::cudaFlow, except users can call the method tf::cudaFlowCapturer::on to capture a sequence of asynchronous CUDA operations through the given stream. The following example creates a CUDA graph that captures two kernel tasks, `task_1` and `task_2`, where `task_1` runs before `task_2`.

    taskflow.emplace([](tf::cudaFlowCapturer&capturer){

    //capturemy_kernel_1throughthegivenstreammanagedbythecapturer
    autotask_1=capturer.on([&](cudaStream_tstream){
    my_kernel_1<<<grid_1,block_1,shm_size_1,stream>>>(my_parameters_1);
    });

    //capturemy_kernel_2throughthegivenstreammanagedbythecapturer
    autotask_2=capturer.on([&](cudaStream_tstream){
    my_kernel_2<<<grid_2,block_2,shm_size_2,stream>>>(my_parameters_2);
    });

    task_1.precede(task_2);
    });

Similar to tf::cudaFlow, a cudaFlowCapturer is a task (tf::Task) created from tf::Taskflow and will be run by one worker thread in the executor. That is, the callable that describes a cudaFlowCapturer will be executed sequentially. Inside a cudaFlow capturer task, different GPU tasks (tf::cudaTask) may run in parallel depending on the selected optimization algorithm. By default, we use tf::cudaFlowRoundRobinOptimizer to transform a user-level graph into a native CUDA graph.

Please refer to GPU Tasking (cudaFlowCapturer) for details.
