[Public] Hi Anoop,
Based on that register count, I am going to guess you built the application with -O0 or some other debugging flags? If you do this, the compiler makes some super large number of registers. I assume that is so a real GPU will not run any other applications simultaneously. Similarly, if you are seeing s_sendmsg I am going to guess there is a printf() in your GPU kernel. These aren’t currently supported in gem5, but something that would be very nice to have. If these are true you will need to remove any printfs and compile with at least -O1 to run in gem5. -Matt From: Anoop Mysore <mysan...@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, September 8, 2023 7:33 AM To: Matt Sinclair <mattdsinclair.w...@gmail.com> Cc: The gem5 Users mailing list <gem5-users@gem5.org>; Poremba, Matthew <matthew.pore...@amd.com> Subject: Re: [gem5-users] Re: Error in an application running on gem5 GCN3 (with apu_se.py) Caution: This message originated from an External Source. Use proper caution when opening attachments, clicking links, or responding. Hi Matt, I'm facing a few other problems: 1. `panic: panic condition (numWfs * vregDemandPerWI) > (numVectorALUs * numVecRegsPerSimd) occurred: WG with 1 WFs and 29285 VGPRs per WI can not be allocated to CU that has 8192 VGPRs` The corresponding line of the code in gem5: https://github.com/gem5/gem5/blob/f29bfc0640c88a79eb7f94454ce31b3237ec0066/src/gpu-compute/compute_unit.cc#L565 One of the variables (vregDemandPerWI) is ultimately derived from reading the executable for the kernel code. Is it possible to reduce this VGRP demand somehow, or is increasing the VGPRs (to what seems like an unrealistically high value) be the only solution? Similar error for SGPRs as well. 2. Some kernels (compiled for gfx801/3) have instructions such as ds_add_u32<https://www.amd.com/system/files/TechDocs/gcn3-instruction-set-architecture.pdf> (Data Store instruction page: 12-161), s_sendmsg (send message to host CPU) -- which do not have their relevant decoding code available<https://github.com/gem5/gem5/blob/48a40cf2f5182a82de360b7efa497d82e06b1631/src/arch/amdgpu/gcn3/insts/instructions.cc#L30929>. Is this intentional or was this just punted for later -- anything to keep in mind when coding for these?

It's hard to say what exactly the problem is without digging in further, but often the ROCm stack will launch additional processes to do a variety of things (e.g., check which version of LLVM is being used). In gem5, each of these require a separate CPU thread context -- which increasing -n handles in SE mode. So if I had to guess, I would say that this is what is happening. If you added gdb locally to your docker, and you built the docker properly, then I would expect gdb to work with gem5.

(At least, I don't see that error at that point anymore). Is "resource temporarily unavailable" commonly due to CPU count? Curious to know how you made that connection. Re gdb: I am indeed using a local docker build (gem5/util/dockerfiles/gcn-gpu) with an added gdb installation -- is that what you meant? Will send in a PR to the repo soon as I'm done :) On Wed, Aug 16, 2023, 5:03 PM Matt Sinclair <mattdsinclair.w...@gmail.com<mailto:mattdsinclair.w...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi Anoop, A few things here: - Regarding the original failure (at least the !FS part), this is normally happening either because of the GPU Target ISA (e.g., gfx900) you used in your Makefile (e.g., it is not supported) or because you didn't properly specify what GPU ISA you are using when running the program. So, what is your command line for running this application and what ISA are you specifying in your Makefile? - If the "what()" is the real source of the error, then I think this could be related to the number of CPU thread contexts you are running with gem5. What did you set "-n" to? - Regarding gdb, @Matt P: did you remove gdb from what is installed in the Docker a while back? If so, I think Anoop would need to add it back and create a local docker or something like that. - Setting aside the above, it would be wonderful if you contribute the CHAI benchmarks to gem5-resources once you get them working! Please let us know if we can do anything to help with that.

(gdb) quit (the quit wasn't a command I provided, it just quits automatically). Is gdb working with gem5 GCN3 in Docker? I ran gem5.opt with ExecAll and SyscallAll debug flags, the debug tail and the simerr logs are attached. I don't see anything peculiar other than a tgkill syscall with a SIGABRT sent to a thread thereafter halting within a few instructions.
