The challenge for accelerator programming environments is to provide high‐levelsupportandflexibilitywithoutsacrificingdeliveredperformance.Forop6miza6onofGPU‐acceleratedapplica6ons,toolsmust1)beabletomeasureperformanceofGPUcomputa6ons,and2)be integratedwith thehigh‐levelprogramming framework togenerate important performance events and meta data for represen6ngperformanceresultstotheuser.

Wehavedeveloped an approach (called TAUcuda) tomeasure theperformanceofGPU computa6ons programmed using CUDA and integrate this informa6on withapplica6on performance data captured with the TAU Performance System. Toaddress thehigh‐levelprogrammingaspect,wehave integratedTAU/TAUcudawiththe HMPP Workbench. The design methodology includes an instrumenta6onstrategy whereby HMPP automa6cally inserts calls to the TAU/TAUcudameasurementinterfacesinitsrun6mesystemandHMPP‐translatedcodetocaptureaperformancepictureoftheresul6ngapplica6onexecu6on.

Introduction void tau_cuda_init(int argc, char **argv);   To be called when the application starts   Initializes data structures and checks GPU status void tau_cuda_exit()   To be called before any thread exits at end of application   All the CUDA profile data output for each thread of execution void* tau_cuda_stream_begin(char *event, cudaStream_t stream);   Called before CUDA statements to be measured   Returns handle which should be used in the end call   Create new CUDA event profile object is created void tau_cuda_stream_end(void * handle);   Called immediately after CUDA statements to be measured   Inserts a CUDA event into the stream identified by the handle vector<Event> tau_cuda_update();   Checks for completed CUDA events on all streams   Non-blocking and returns # completed on each stream int tau_cuda_update(cudaStream_t stream);   Same as tau_cuda_update() except for a particular stream   Non-blocking and returns # completed on the stream vector<Event> tau_cuda_finalize();   Waits for all CUDA events to complete on all streams   Blocking and returns # completed on each stream int tau_cuda_finalize(cudaStream_t stream);   Same as tau_cuda_finalize() except for a particular stream   Blocking and returns # completed on the stream
