CUDA_ERROR_LAUNCH_FAILED, CUDNN_STATUS_MAPPING_ERROR and CUDNN_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR in object detection

System information

• What is the top-level directory of the model you are using: object-detection
• Have I written custom code (as opposed to using a stock example script provided in TensorFlow): no
• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): Linux Ubuntu 16.04
• TensorFlow installed from (source or binary): binary, NGC nvidia docker image 18.04 and tensorflow-gpu docker image
• TensorFlow version (use command below): 1.7, but tried also 1.5 with the same issue
• Bazel version (if compiling from source):
• CUDA/cuDNN version: 9.0.176 and 7.1.1
• GPU model and memory: 3 x Asus Turbo 1080TI 11GB
• Exact command to reproduce:

I am running tensorflow 1.7 using NGC tensorflow 18.04 python 3 version provided by NVIDIA with nvidia-docker version 2 in Ubuntu 16.04. Other tests with the official docker tensorflow 1.5 and 1.7 gpu version fails too, and also installing manually cuda-cudnn-tensorflow without docker is not solving the issue. Latest driver version is installed 390.48.

I have two pc with the same identical software configuration. The first is a AMD Ryzen 1800X in ASUS PRIME-X370-PRO and CORSAIR CMK16GX4M2A2666C16 16GB RAM with a Gigabyte Aorus GTX 1080TI works just fine. The second one, having the following issue, is a AMD THREADRIPPER 1900X, GIGABYTE X399 AORUS GAMING 7, CORSAIR DOMINATOR CMD32GX4M4C3000C15 32GB RAM, 3 x ASUS Turbo GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, SSD SAMSUNG MZ-V6E1T0BW 960 EVO 1TB, PSU EVGA 1600W G2. All hardware is updated to the latest BIOS/drivers/recommended configuration.

When training with tensorflow using Object Detection API using default or customized config (one or multiple batch_size, image size from 300x300 up to 900x900, and other settings), all working properly using the first PC, I received these errors quite randomly after a small number of steps if launching the training just on one GPU with the same exact command:

When I run the training using all three GPUs (adding the following parameters --num_clones=3 --ps_tasks=1), I receive these other errors:

All the tests were made after restarting the system, no overclock in the CPU or GPU, I even tried downclocking the GPUs, other usages of the GPUs seems to work without problems. Some other people seems to have similar problems here, but none of the possible solutions provided (rm -rf ~/.nv/ to clean some cache and setting config.gpu_options.allow_growth = True to only allocate the needed memory) solved this problem.

What could be possible the root cause of this issue? The output is not helping to identify it...

@derekjchow Could you take a look?

[robieta]

Can you try changing the CUDA and CudNN versions and see if that has any effect?

@robieta

I’ve encountered this issue when I try to train faster_rcnn_resnet101_coco on my dataset. I have checked versions of CUDA and cuDNN and they are compatible with the requirements specified in the Object detection repo. Can you please let me know how to go about this error and what versions of CUDA/ cuDNN do you recommend?
