This is from my bad merge. PETSc used to allow cuda without cusp/thrust, this is apparently no longer an option. I'll fix this.
We do. You configure with --with-cuda-only
In the long run this is a terrible way to indicate this and needs to be changed. It is inconsistent with how we do everything else by simply adding additional supports using --with-xxx. We should have --with-cuda for basic cuda support and --with-cusp for cusp support (which may automatically add the --with-cuda).
For one --with-cuda-only=1 is the default [and all its doing the following]
if not self.framework.argDB['with-cuda-only']: if not self.cusp.found or not self.thrust.found: raise RuntimeError('PETSc CUDA support requires the CUSP and Thrust packages\nRerun configure using --with-cusp-dir and --with-thrust-dir') self.checkThrustVersion() self.checkCUSPVersion() <<<<<
i.e currently none of these checks [including the version check for cusp/thrust] is being done. So with-cuda-only option can be removed? Also we have checkThrustVersion() and checkCUSPVersion() in cuda.py. Perhaps they belong in thrust.py and cusp.py? [but for some reason they were moved int cuda.py?] And thrust.include is used in checkCUDAVersion(). Is this really needed? Satish
