GPU detection failed. error code 512 #1972

Closed AnkS4 closed 7 years ago

AnkS4 commented 7 years ago

I'm running Manjaro with boinc 7.6.33. I'm getting an error : boinc GPU detection failed. error code 512 GPU not found.

I currently have all possible drivers installed including: bumblebee, cuda, opencl-nvidia, mesa, lib32-mesa, lib32-glibc, lib32-glib2, lib32-pango, lib32-libxi, lib32-mesa, lib32-libjpeg6-turbo, lib32-libxmu and linux411-nvidia I've also tried: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/BOINC#GPU_missing

ChristianBeer commented 7 years ago

What type of NVidia GPU do you have installed? Are the Manjaro cuda packages providing the needed libraries? In particular BOINC looks for libnvidia-ml.so.1 (or libnvidia-ml.so) and libcuda.so.

You could activate the coproc_debug logflag and try again. The gpu detection process also writes it's own logfiles (stdoutgpudetect and stderrgpudetect) although I don't know where they are stored on Manjaro.

ChristianBeer commented 7 years ago

The file read_coproc_info_file() tries to open and fails is named coproc_info.xml and should be created in the data directory /var/lib/boinc-client (on Debian). Please check if this file is created, it might be in a different directory or not created at all as your first post suggests that the GPU detection process which creates this file fails.

ChristianBeer commented 7 years ago

Is coproc_info.xml located in /var/lib/boinc/ and what are the permissions?

The message inside the file suggests that a call to cuInit() failed which to me looks like an issue with the cuda driver/library. Unfortunately there is no output of the return code. You might want to try to compile some cuda examples and see if they work.

AnkS4 commented 7 years ago

Yes, -rw-r--r--

JuhaSointusalo commented 7 years ago

How are you starting the client?

AnkS4 commented 7 years ago

$ boinc

JuhaSointusalo commented 7 years ago

Ok. Include path in the command line.

JuhaSointusalo commented 7 years ago

BTW. Unless you want to use the current directory as BOINC's data directory add "--dir /path/to/datadir" to the command line.

Starting with $ sudo boinc --dir /var/lib/boinc/ But, giving same errors

JuhaSointusalo commented 7 years ago

When you installed the boinc package it installed BOINC as a service which starts automatically at boot time. While you can run multiple clients at the same time they can't share the same data directory. (Though usually multiple clients is something you don't want.) If you don't want BOINC to run as service you need to disable it. systemctl disable boinc.service may work.

As for GPU detection, the client needs to be started so that the path to the client is included: /usr/bin/boinc .

If you'd like to have BOINC run as a service and have it detect GPUs you may need to restart it after you have logged in to the computer. When BOINC is installed as a service it often manages to start well before GPU drivers are loaded and causes the GPU detection to fail. You can edit the X/Wayland init scripts to restart BOINC automatically. I don't which file that would be in Manjaro so that's something you'll have to figure out yourself.

JuhaSointusalo commented 7 years ago

The problem that made you open this ticket, GPU detection failing when starting BOINC client from command line, is worked around by starting the client using full path to the executable.

To sort out the rest of the problems, you need to tell what is it that you want to do. I can't read your mind so I'm really going to need you to explain what is it that you want to do.

Do you want the client to run as service so that it runs even when nobody is logged in? Do you want the client to be started automatically when the system boots up? Do you have some specialized scenario where you really need to run more than one copy of the client simultaneously?

AnkS4 commented 7 years ago

I just want GPU to work on boinc projects. But, it's not working even after trying various methods.

JuhaSointusalo commented 7 years ago

The Arch Wiki page you linked to instructs to add boinc to video group:

sudo gpasswd -a boinc video

Then it suggests restarting the service:

sudo systemctl restart boinc.service

Lets try those first. If it still isn't working make sure coproc_debug is enabled, restart the service and from BOINC's Event Log post everything from start to "Initialization complete".

ChristianBeer commented 7 years ago

Manually starting boinc does not work because the package creates a boinc user account and the data directory and all files are owned by this user. Unless you added your normal user to the boinc group you don't have permissions to modify files in the datadirectory.

To achieve your goal you need to restart the service so that the correct useraccount is used to start boinc. That would explain the fopen error that the client, started with the wrong useraccount, can't read coproc_info.xml.

I would suggest to purge the boinc-client package from your computer. Make sure the /var/lib/boinc directory is gone and reinstall boinc-client. Add one project and see if you GPU is recognized. If not please post the content of /var/lib/boinc/coproc_info.xml again, in addition to the Event Log portion Juha suggested. Please always use sudo systemctl stop boinc.service and sudo systemctl start boinc.service (or manjaro equivalent) to control the Client. Do not start boinc directly as root or your own user.

Please read the manual pages for boinccmd and boincmgr. It is important that those two tools are started in the data directory. In your case you need to do a cd /var/lib/boinc before executing commands. You also need to have read access to gui_rpc_auth.cfg (if it contains a password) this is usually achieved by adding your normal user to the boinc group.

The interesting line from your log is NVIDIA drivers present but no GPUs found which means that the driver has no CUDA capability. This is not a BOINC problem but one with the Nvidia driver provided by Manjaro. I found instructions to build the samples that come with the package: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GPGPU#Development You should try those first and see if they work. Of interest to use would be the output of the deviceQuery tool.

I also have an optirun setup and it didn't work at first. I also had other problems with optirun so I waited for a new version in Debian and sometime in the stretch testing it started to work. I don't remember the exact steps but at one time I needed to specify the ID of the discrete GPU like this BusID "PCI:01:00:0" in the bumblebee xorg conf. But I don't need that now and BOINC detects the GPU"

Finally, optirun worked. It may have been a kernel problem.
