Challenges and Opportunities in Native GPU Debugging

Published:16 May 2017Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this technical session we present the open architectural design of the debugger and how it fits into the OpenCL JIT compilation flow. We demonstrate a show case on how to natively work with the debugger to solve functional bugs, as-well-as low-level debugging techniques on SIMD thread level which help to solve complex issues such as misaligned or out of range accesses to local/global memory, stack overflows, Illegal instructions, etc. Finally, we cover the challenges in debugging.
