NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit



Release Highlights

The Nvidia CUDA toolkit is an extension of the GPU parallel computing platform and programming model. The Nvidia CUDA installation consists of inclusion of the official Nvidia CUDA repository followed by the installation of relevant meta package and configuring path the the executable CUDA binaries. GPUDirect RDMA is a technology introduced in Kepler-class GPUs and CUDA 5.0 that enables a direct path for data exchange between the GPU and a third-party peer device using standard features of PCI Express.

Easier Application Porting

Nvidia
  • Share GPUs across multiple threads
  • Use all GPUs in the system concurrently from a single host thread
  • No-copy pinning of system memory, a faster alternative to cudaMallocHost()
  • C++ new/delete and support for virtual functions
  • Support for inline PTX assembly
  • Thrust library of templated performance primitives such as sort, reduce, etc.
  • NVIDIA Performance Primitives (NPP) library for image/video processing
  • Layered Textures for working with same size/format textures at larger sizes and higher performance

Faster Multi-GPU Programming

  • Unified Virtual Addressing
  • GPUDirect v2.0 support for Peer-to-Peer Communication

New & Improved Developer Tools

  • Automated Performance Analysis in Visual Profiler
  • C++ debugging in CUDA-GDB for Linux and MacOS
  • GPU binary disassembler for Fermi architecture (cuobjdump)
  • Parallel Nsight 2.0 now available for Windows developers with new debugging and profiling features.
