Initialize MATLAB GPU library on currently selected device
#include "gpu/mxGPUArray.h" int mxInitGPU()
int
type with one of the following values:
MX_GPU_SUCCESS
if the MATLAB GPU library is
successfully initialized.
MX_GPU_FAILURE
if not successfully initialized.
Before using any CUDA code in your MEX file, initialize the MATLAB GPU library if
you intend to use any mxGPUArray
functionality in MEX or any GPU
calls in MATLAB. There are many ways to initialize the MATLAB GPU API,
including:
Call mxInitGPU
at the beginning of your MEX file
before any CUDA code.
Call gpuDevice(deviceIndex)
in MATLAB before running
any MEX code.
Create a gpuArray
in MATLAB before
running any MEX code.
You should call mxInitGPU
at the beginning of your MEX file,
unless you have an alternate way of guaranteeing that the MATLAB GPU library is
initialized at the start of your MEX file.
If the library is initialized, this function returns without doing any work. If the library is not initialized, the function initializes the default device. Note: At present, a MATLAB MEX file can work with only one GPU device at a time.
