Graphics Interoperability

\brief graphics interoperability functions of the low-level CUDA driver API (cuda.h)

This section describes the graphics interoperability functions of the low-level CUDA driver application programming interface.

CUresult cuGraphicsMapResources (unsigned int count, CUgraphicsResource * resources, CUstream hStream)

Maps the count graphics resources in resources for access by CUDA.

The resources in resources may be accessed by CUDA until they are unmapped. The graphics API from which resources were registered should not access any resources while they are mapped by CUDA. If an application does so, the results are undefined.

This function provides the synchronization guarantee that any graphics calls issued before cuGraphicsMapResources() will complete before any subsequent CUDA work issued in stream begins.

If resources includes any duplicate entries then CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE is returned. If any of resources are presently mapped for access by CUDA then CUDA_ERROR_ALREADY_MAPPED is returned.

Parameters:

count - Number of resources to map
resources - Resources to map for CUDA usage
hStream - Stream with which to synchronize

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_ALREADY_MAPPED, CUDA_ERROR_UNKNOWN

Note:

This function uses standard semantics.

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

CUresult cuGraphicsResourceGetMappedMipmappedArray (CUmipmappedArray * pMipmappedArray, CUgraphicsResource resource)

Returns in *pMipmappedArray a mipmapped array through which the mapped graphics resource resource. The value set in *pMipmappedArray may change every time that resource is mapped.

If resource is not a texture then it cannot be accessed via a mipmapped array and CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED_AS_ARRAY is returned. If resource is not mapped then CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED is returned.

Parameters:

pMipmappedArray - Returned mipmapped array through which resource may be accessed
resource - Mapped resource to access

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED_AS_ARRAY

Note:

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cuGraphicsResourceGetMappedPointer

CUresult cuGraphicsResourceGetMappedPointer (CUdeviceptr * pDevPtr, size_t * pSize, CUgraphicsResource resource)

Returns in *pDevPtr a pointer through which the mapped graphics resource resource may be accessed. Returns in pSize the size of the memory in bytes which may be accessed from that pointer. The value set in pPointer may change every time that resource is mapped.

If resource is not a buffer then it cannot be accessed via a pointer and CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED_AS_POINTER is returned. If resource is not mapped then CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED is returned. *

Parameters:

pDevPtr - Returned pointer through which resource may be accessed
pSize - Returned size of the buffer accessible starting at *pPointer
resource - Mapped resource to access

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED_AS_POINTER

Note:

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

See also:

cuGraphicsMapResources, cuGraphicsSubResourceGetMappedArray

CUresult cuGraphicsResourceSetMapFlags (CUgraphicsResource resource, unsigned int flags)

Set flags for mapping the graphics resource resource.

Changes to flags will take effect the next time resource is mapped. The flags argument may be any of the following:

  • CU_GRAPHICS_MAP_RESOURCE_FLAGS_NONE: Specifies no hints about how this resource will be used. It is therefore assumed that this resource will be read from and written to by CUDA kernels. This is the default value.
  • CU_GRAPHICS_MAP_RESOURCE_FLAGS_READONLY: Specifies that CUDA kernels which access this resource will not write to this resource.
  • CU_GRAPHICS_MAP_RESOURCE_FLAGS_WRITEDISCARD: Specifies that CUDA kernels which access this resource will not read from this resource and will write over the entire contents of the resource, so none of the data previously stored in the resource will be preserved.

If resource is presently mapped for access by CUDA then CUDA_ERROR_ALREADY_MAPPED is returned. If flags is not one of the above values then CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE is returned.

Parameters:

resource - Registered resource to set flags for
flags - Parameters for resource mapping

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_ALREADY_MAPPED

Note:

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cuGraphicsMapResources

CUresult cuGraphicsSubResourceGetMappedArray (CUarray * pArray, CUgraphicsResource resource, unsigned int arrayIndex, unsigned int mipLevel)

Returns in *pArray an array through which the subresource of the mapped graphics resource resource which corresponds to array index arrayIndex and mipmap level mipLevel may be accessed. The value set in *pArray may change every time that resource is mapped.

If resource is not a texture then it cannot be accessed via an array and CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED_AS_ARRAY is returned. If arrayIndex is not a valid array index for resource then CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE is returned. If mipLevel is not a valid mipmap level for resource then CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE is returned. If resource is not mapped then CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED is returned.

Parameters:

pArray - Returned array through which a subresource of resource may be accessed
resource - Mapped resource to access
arrayIndex - Array index for array textures or cubemap face index as defined by CUarray_cubemap_face for cubemap textures for the subresource to access
mipLevel - Mipmap level for the subresource to access

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED_AS_ARRAY

Note:

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cuGraphicsResourceGetMappedPointer

CUresult cuGraphicsUnmapResources (unsigned int count, CUgraphicsResource * resources, CUstream hStream)

Unmaps the count graphics resources in resources.

Once unmapped, the resources in resources may not be accessed by CUDA until they are mapped again.

This function provides the synchronization guarantee that any CUDA work issued in stream before cuGraphicsUnmapResources() will complete before any subsequently issued graphics work begins.

If resources includes any duplicate entries then CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE is returned. If any of resources are not presently mapped for access by CUDA then CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED is returned.

Parameters:

count - Number of resources to unmap
resources - Resources to unmap
hStream - Stream with which to synchronize

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_MAPPED, CUDA_ERROR_UNKNOWN

Note:

This function uses standard semantics.

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

cuGraphicsMapResources

CUresult cuGraphicsUnregisterResource (CUgraphicsResource resource)

Unregisters the graphics resource resource so it is not accessible by CUDA unless registered again.

If resource is invalid then CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE is returned.

Parameters:

resource - Resource to unregister

Returns:

CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_UNKNOWN

Note:

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.
