【中文标题】推力 inclusive_scan 的 CUDA 二阶递归【英文标题】:CUDA 2nd order recursion with thrust inclusive_scan 【发布时间】:2022-01-04 18:50:16 【问题描述】:我正在尝试了解如何并行化递归计算。连续地,计算采用以下形式:
for (int i = 2; i<size; i++)
result[i] = oldArray[i] + k * result[i-2];
对于i-1
索引,这里有一个解决我上一个问题的方法:CUDA force instruction execution order
我想修改它以使用i-2
,但我不明白如何将相同的过程应用于二阶计算。应该可以使用thrust::inclusive_scan
函数,但我不知道怎么做。有谁知道解决办法吗?
【问题讨论】:
高阶递归可以表示为一次扫描,其中扫描操作涉及向量和矩阵。见cs.cmu.edu/~guyb/papers/Ble93.pdf中的1.4.2 【参考方案1】:从我们在上一个问题/答案中中断的地方开始,我们将注意力转移到 Blelloch 的 referenced paper 中的等式 1.11。我们观察到您的问题表述:
for (int i = 2; i<size; i++)
result[i] = oldArray[i] + k * result[i-2];
如果我们设置 m=2 似乎与等式 1.11 中的相匹配,在这种情况下,我们还可以观察到对于您的公式,所有 ai,1 都为零(并且如前所述,所有ai,2 是 k)。
根据那篇论文中的方程 1.12,我们的状态变量 si 现在变成了一个二元组:
si = |xi xi-1|
注意到这些,我们观察到方程 1.13 的“正确性”:
si = |xi-1 xi-2| . |0 1, k 0| + |bi 0|
重写:
si,1 = xi = k*xi-2 + bi
si,2 = xi-1 = xi-1
(在我看来,other answer 在这一点上离开了你。这种实现,即result.data[0] = right + k * left.data[1];
足以用于串行扫描,但不适用于并行扫描。很明显,仿函数/扫描操作没有联想。)
我们现在需要提出一个二元运算符bop
,它是(1.7)中的定义对这种情况的扩展。参考公式 1.7 中的先前定义,我们在 1.13 中的处理基础上将其扩展如下:
Ci = |Ai , Bi|
地点:
Ai = |0 1, k 0|
和:
Bi = |bi 0|
然后我们有:
Cibop
Cj = |一个i 。 Aj , Bi 。 Aj + Bj |
这将成为我们的仿函数/扫描运算符的公式。我们需要在整个过程中携带 6 个标量“状态”量:2 个用于 B 向量,4 个用于 A 矩阵。
接下来是上述的实现:

是的,上面有一些结果在第 6 位上有所不同。当考虑到串行和并行方法之间非常不同的操作顺序时,我将此归因于float
分辨率的限制。如果您将typedef
更改为double
,结果将看起来完全匹配。

这两种方法之间应该没有显着的性能差异。 (但是我碰巧在这个例子中将typedef
切换到double
,所以这会有所不同。)使用cudaMalloc
作为device_vector
的替代品用于各种状态向量(dx0
、dx1
, dy0
, dy1
...) 可能会稍微快一些,因为 device_vector
首先进行 cudaMalloc
样式分配,然后启动内核以将分配归零。这个归零步骤对于状态向量来说是不必要的。如果您有兴趣,此处给出的模式应该演示如何做到这一点。
这是一个完全不使用thrust::device_vector
和thrust::host_vector

【讨论】:
太棒了。我一定错过了 1.7 。实际上,我使用的扫描操作不是关联的,这会阻止并行计算。我会更新我的答案。 我比我意识到的更接近,我无法正确建立索引。您在另一个问题中说device_vector
不是必需的。使用它们有性能优势,还是为了方便而在这里这样做?
这只是为了方便。使用cudaMalloc
创建的分配和使用thrust::device_vector
创建的分配之间应该没有性能差异无论如何,既然你已经问过了,我提供了一个使用cudaMalloc
和thrust::device_ptr
的类似示例
我试过了,如果我使用cudaMalloc
,我似乎会获得相当大的优势。无论哪种方式都很快,但如果我对输入、输出、dy 和 dx 执行cudaMalloc
,则cudaMalloc
时间约为 200 毫秒(根据 nvvp)。如果我对 dy 和 dx 使用 thrust::device_vector
,cudaMalloc
大致相同,但两个向量声明每个需要大约 50 毫秒(同样是 nvvp)。我尝试用clock()
在主函数中做一个基本的计时,结果也大致相同。
当我在 V100 GPU 上运行最后一个测试用例时,与inclusive_scan
关联的内核大约需要 80 微秒。任何程序中的第一个 CUDA 调用(例如 cudaMalloc
)都会很长,比如数百毫秒。如果这是您正在进行的其他工作的一部分,您将不会在此处看到。此后,cudaMalloc
操作应在 50 微秒范围内。【参考方案2】:
这里是一些 cpu 代码,它显示了从 https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~guyb/papers/Ble93.pdf 派生的公式的可能实现,以将高阶递归表示为扫描操作。
关键思想是扫描结果的每个元素不是一个标量,而是一个包含前n个标量结果的向量。这样,所有需要的先前结果都可以在扫描算子中用于计算下一个结果。

在某处仍然存在逐一错误,但可以理解其背后的想法。
我之前说过这种方法可以用于 CUDA 中的并行扫描。这是不正确的。对于并行扫描,扫描算子必须具有附加属性,即关联性,即 (a OP b) OP c == a OP (b OP c)。在这种方法中情况并非如此。
Robert Crovella 的回答展示了如何推导出可用于并行扫描的关联扫描算子。
