mambaforge-cuda with "devel" pieces of the CUDA toolkit? #49

Closed bdice closed 2 weeks ago

bdice commented 11 months ago

I talked with @csadorf today and it seems like there might be a useful layer between mambaforge-cuda and ci-imgs that could include the CUDA Toolkit (so that compilers / etc are present) but not the pieces specific to RAPIDS CI. I'd propose this would be something like mambaforge-cuda-devel, or a tag on the existing repo. It's hard to get a CUDA 11 container with both mamba/conda and CUDA compilers, and this problem has come up at least 3 times in my experience now.

(CUDA 12 is a bit simpler because the compiler and entire CUDA Toolkit can be installed via conda.)

Yeah seems like a good idea

How much of the CUDA Toolkit would it include?

bdice commented 11 months ago

I think the nvidia/cuda devel images include a full CUDA Toolkit.

bdice commented 11 months ago

Now that CUDA 12 is fully available via conda, it might only make sense to have this for CUDA 11. I think I'm going to defer making any changes here unless/until I need it once again, but hopefully development work will shift towards CUDA 12 enough that this won't be needed at all.

jakirkham commented 2 months ago

Given the simplifications now possible for CUDA 12, have filed a new issue to explore that: https://github.com/rapidsai/ci-imgs/issues/174

bdice commented 2 weeks ago

As of https://github.com/rapidsai/ci-imgs/pull/167, this repository is being moved into ci-imgs, so I am cleaning up this issue tracker.

I have not needed this feature for almost a year, so I am closing this issue. Also we will be dropping CUDA 11 support at some point in the future, which will negate the desire for this entirely.
