NAME
gpu-plot - continuously update and plot critical GPU parameters as a function of time
SYNOPSIS
gpu-plot [--help | --about]
gpu-plot [--no_fan] [--stdin] [--simlog] [--ltz] [--sleep N] [--debug]
DESCRIPTION
gpu-plot is a utility to continuously plot the trend of critical GPU parameters for all compatible GPUs.
The --sleep N can be used to specify the update interval. The gpu-plot utility has 2 modes of operation.
The default mode is to read the GPU driver details directly, which is useful as a standalone utility.
The --stdin option causes gpu-plot to read GPU data from stdin. This is how gpu-mon produces the plot
and can also be used to pipe your own data into the process. The --simlog option can be used with the
--stdin when a monitor log file is piped as stdin. This is useful for troubleshooting and can be used to
display saved log results. The --ltz option results in the use of local time instead of UTC. If you
plan to run both gpu-plot and gpu-mon, then the --plot option of the gpu-mon utility should be used
instead of both utilities in order reduce data reads by a factor of 2.
OPTIONS
--about
Will display details about gpu-plot.
--ltz Use local time zone instead of UTC for displays and logging.
--no_fan
Will exclude fan information from the display. Useful with watercooled GPUs.
--stdin
Will read data from stdin. This is useful to display plots of a logfile save with gpu-mon.
--simlog
When used with the --stdin option, it will simulate the reading of data from the logfile at a rate
define by --sleep.
--sleep N
Specifies N, the number of seconds to sleep between updates.
--debug
Will output additional useful debug/troubleshooting details to a log file.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
EXAMPLES
gpu-plot --sleep 5 --ltz
Will open a Gtk window that will display plots of operation parameters for all compatible GPU's that
updates every 5s. Time stamps displayed will use local time zone.
cat logfile | gpu-plot --stdin --simlog --sleep 1
Will open a Gtk window that will display plots of the GPU operation data in the specified logfile to
simulate streamed data with a 1 sec interval.
CONFIGURATION
In order to get maximum capability of these utilities, you should be running with a kernel that provides
support of the GPUs you have installed. If using AMD GPUs, installing the latest amdgpu driver package
or the latest ROCm release, may provide additional capabilities. If you have Nvidia GPUs installed,
nvidia-smi must also be installed in order for the utility reading of the cards to be possible. Writing
to GPUs is currently only possible for AMD GPUs, and only with compatible cards and with the the AMD
ppfeaturemask set to 0xfffd7fff. This can be accomplished by adding amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xfffd7fff to
the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT value in /etc/default/grub and executing sudo update-grub.
FILES
/usr/share/misc/pci.ids The system list of all known AMD PCI ID's (vendors, devices, classes and subclasses). It can be updated with the update-pciids command. /sys/class/drm/card*/device/pp_od_clk_voltage Special driver file for each AMD GPU required for some rickslab-gpu-utils. /etc/default/grub The grub defaults file where amdgpu.ppfeaturemask needs to be set.
BUGS
Known to not work well with Fiji ProDuo cards and will issue warning messages for Fiji Nano cards.
