Support for WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) #26

Open jakirkham opened 3 years ago

jakirkham commented 3 years ago

Opening this issue to track WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). Currently this is not supported as NVML is not supported on WSL (based on reading this note from the NVIDIA WSL docs).

  1. NVIDIA Management Library (NVML) APIs are not supported. Consequently, nvidia-smi may not be functional in WSL 2.

However when NVML is supported on Windows, it would be nice to try using/testing pynvml on Windows.

For more general RAPIDS support of WSL, please see issue ( https://github.com/rapidsai/cudf/issues/28 ).

It seems that NVML is supposed to be supported since 510.06.

pentschev commented 2 years ago

Actually, 510.06 is supposed to support NVML within docker containers in WSL, but NVML was initially supported in WSL in 465.42.

@kenhester, do you know if there is anything special that needs to be done on the PyNVML side to support WSL? Or should things just work there?

I believe there are many conditions to be met to enable GPU support in WSL2. The docs : https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/wsl-user-guide/index.html#wsl2-system-requirements

Otherwise, once GPU support is enabled I would expect pynvml to work, though I have not tried it yet.
