OpenCL error about get_global_id - opencl

My program, I have set
size_t global_item_size = 12000;
size_t local_item_size = 600;
cl_mem arr_M_obj = clCreateBuffer(context, CL_MEM_READ_WRITE, 12000 * sizeof(int), NULL, &ret);
ret = clEnqueueNDRangeKernel(command_queue, kernel, 1, NULL, &global_item_size, &local_item_size, 0, NULL, NULL);
and my kernel:
__kernel void mykernel(__global int* arrM)
{
int n = get_global_id(0);
arrM[n] = n;
}
But my result has an error, I use a loop and print arrM after copying from device to host, and my result
arrM[0] = 0
arrM[1] = 0
arrM[2] = 1
arrM[3] = 0
arrM[4] = 2
arrM[5] = 0
arrM[6] = 3
...
arrM[11998] = 5999
arrM[11999] = 0
Can you help me solve it?

Yes, the problem is quite easy if you didn't omit anything in your posting - you forgot to set the argument to the kernel - the buffer arr_M_obj.
Take a look here for the function used to set the argument.
cl_mem arr_M_obj = clCreateBuffer(context, CL_MEM_READ_WRITE, nmax * NMAX * sizeof(cl_ulong), NULL, &ret);
__kernel void PatternBranching(__global int4* arrlmer, __global int* arrMscore, __global int4* arrM, int k, int l, int n1, int sqelenght, int a1)
PatternBranching(arr_lmer_obj, arr_Mscore_obj, arr_M_obj, k, l, n1, sqelength, a1)
notice anything bad about the declaration of arr_Mscore_obj and the signature? Change the cl_ulong to cl_int

OpenCL program works only for the multiple of itemsize

I'm new to openCL program and this is the problem I'm facing while executing a simple vector addition.
I have the following kernel code
#include <CL/cl.hpp>
#include<iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define MAX_SOURCE_SIZE (0x100000)
int main() {
__kernel void vector_add(__global const int *A, __global const int *B, __global int *C) {
int i = get_global_id(0);
C[i] = A[i] + B[i];
}
I have integrated gpu and amd gpus on my system. I'm trying to perform vector addition on my intel gpu and for which I have installed the intel opencl drivers (i7 3rd gen processor with hd graphics).
I have the below openCL code
std::vector<cl::Platform> platforms;
cl::Platform::get(&platforms);
std::cout << "Total platforms including cpu: " << platforms.size() << std::endl;
if (platforms.size() == 0) {
std::cout << " No platforms found. Check OpenCL installation!\n";
exit(1);
}
int i;
const int LIST_SIZE = 50;
int *A = (int*)malloc(sizeof(int)*LIST_SIZE);
int *B = (int*)malloc(sizeof(int)*LIST_SIZE);
for(i = 0; i < LIST_SIZE; i++) {
A[i] = i;
B[i] = LIST_SIZE - i;
}
FILE *fp;
char *source_str;
size_t source_size;
fp = fopen("vector_add_kernel.cl", "r");
if (!fp) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to load kernel.\n");
exit(1);
}
source_str = (char*)malloc(MAX_SOURCE_SIZE);
source_size = fread( source_str, 1, MAX_SOURCE_SIZE, fp);
fclose( fp );
//std::cout<<source_str<<std::endl;
// Get platform and device information
cl_platform_id* platforms1 = NULL;
cl_device_id device_id = NULL;
cl_uint ret_num_devices;
cl_uint ret_num_platforms;
cl_int ret = clGetPlatformIDs(1, platforms1, &ret_num_platforms);
platforms1= (cl_platform_id*) malloc(sizeof(cl_platform_id) * ret_num_platforms);
clGetPlatformIDs(ret_num_platforms, platforms1, NULL);

int *C = (int*)malloc(sizeof(int)*LIST_SIZE);
ret = clEnqueueReadBuffer(command_queue, c_mem_obj, CL_TRUE, 0,
LIST_SIZE * sizeof(int), C, 0, NULL, NULL);
// Display the result to the screen
for(i = 0; i < LIST_SIZE; i++)
printf("%d + %d = %d\n", A[i], B[i], C[i]);
//FREE
return 0;
}
If the LISTSIZE is 50, it prints only till 48 that is 16*3. It prints only the multiple of LISTSIZE and I'm not able to figure out why?.
OpenCL kernels execute only for a multiple of the local thread block size (local Range, in your code local_item_size), which should not be smaller than 32 and must be a multiple of 2, (so it can be (32, 64, 128, 256, ...). If you set it to 16, half of the GPU will be idle at any time. global_item_size must be a multiple of local_item_size. You need at least 32 data items for the kernel to function and a lot more for it to yield good performance.
Also the part
#include <CL/cl.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define MAX_SOURCE_SIZE (0x100000)
int main() {
is not OpenCL C code and does not belong in the .cl source file. If it is not too lengthy, you can write the OpenCL C code directly in the .cpp file as a raw string:
const string kernel_code = R"(
__kernel void vector_add(__global const int *A, __global const int *B, __global int *C) {
int i = get_global_id(0);
C[i] = A[i] + B[i];
}
)";
char* source_str = kernel_code.c_str();

OpenCL GPU calculation wrong

I am starting out OpenCL by converting existing C codes to an OpenCL. I am getting strange results with the both CPU and GPU calculation. Their values change 'every time' when I run the code. When I compare with the normal C, I would get 'somewhat' acceptable results from the CPU (but, still the results are not identical with the that of native C or even other languages), but when I run the 'exact same' code with GPU, I get gibberish results.
Here is my code on the Host
#include <stdio.h>

#include <CL/cl.h>
#include <math.h>

Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you.
You appear to be running a 2D global work size, but storing into a location based only on dimension 1 (not 0). Therefore multiple work items are storing into the same location using +=. You have a race condition. You could use atomics to solve this, but it will likely slow the performance down too much. Therefore, you should store intermediate results and then do a parallel reduction operation.
I am using AMD W2100, and yes, I have printed out all the supported extension and it included cl_khr_fp64 extension.
Sorry, I forgot to include the original calculation. The actual calculation goes like the following..
for(i=0,i<lines;i++)
{
for(j=0;j<delnu_size;j++)
{
f[j] += inten[i] * ((1.0/pie) * (gamma[i] / (pow(gamma[i],2) + pow((delnu[j] - nu[i] + del_air[i] * 950.0/1013.0),2))));
}
}
I would write OpenCL kernel as below,
Without using atomics and only single work dimension.
global_work_size = delnu_size
There could be a better way but its the simplest one.
__kernel void test(__global double *gamma,
__global double *inten,
__global double *delnu,
__global double *delair,
__global double *f,
const int lines)
{
double pie = 4.0*atan(1.0);
int j = get_global_id(0);
f[j] = 0;
for(i=0,i<lines;i++)
{
f[j] += inten[i] * ((1.0/pie) * (gamma[i] / (pow(gamma[i],2) + pow((delnu[j] - nu[i] + del_air[i] * 950.0/1013.0),2))));
}
}
You need to understand how OpenCL kernel is executed.
You can think of it as large number of threads executing concurrently
and each thread could be identified with get_global_id

openCL Long Overflowing

Before I start I am a C beginner and I am trying to do some openCL work which might have been a mistake. Below is my kernel code:
__kernel void collatz(__global int* in, __global int* out)
{
uint id = get_global_id(0);
unsigned long n = (unsigned long)id;
uint count = 0;
while (n > 1) {
if (n % 2 == 0) {
n = n / 2;
} else {
if(n == 1572066143) {
unsigned long test = n;
printf("BEFORE - %lu\n", n);
test = (3 * test) + 1;
printf("AFTER - %lu\n", test);
n = (3 * n) + 1;
} else {
n = (3 * n) + 1;
}
}
count = count + 1;
}
out[id] = count;
}
and the output:
BEFORE - 1572066143
AFTER - 421231134
To me it looks like n is overflowing but I can't figure out why it is happening.
The interesting thing is if I create a new variable to store the same value as n then it seems to work correctly.
unsigned long test = 1572066143;
printf("BEFORE - %lu\n", test);
test = (3 * test) + 1;
printf("AFTER - %lu\n", test);
Output:
BEFORE - 1572066143
AFTER - 4716198430
As I said I am a C beginner so I could be doing something very stupid! Any help would be appreciated as I have been pulling my hair out for hours now!
Thanks,
Stephen
Update:
Here is my host code in case I am doing something stupid on that end:

return SUCCESS;
}
I finally got to the bottom of the issue.
I was running the code on my Intel HD Graphics 4600 chip and it was producing the strange behaviour shown in the original question. I switched to using my AMD card and then it started working as expected!
Very strange. Thanks to everyone for their help!
Host side and device size values have different sizes. In host, long can vary from 32 to 64bits, depending on the platform. In device, long refers to 64bits only.
printf() function, as defined in C says that %ld is to print long (host side long) numbers. You are using printf in a kernel, so.... It could be that the C-like parser is used, therefore printing the variable as a 32bits long.
Can you try printing it as %lld or as a floating point?

Casting a `local int*` to `local long16*` causes the kernel give me wrong results

I have a __local int* pointer which I want to copy the data from a __global int* to it. To make the copy faster, I cast both to long16*, I know all the arrays (input, output and local memory) are of size 16 * 1024 bytes. The code is as follows:
__kernel void test_kernel(
__global int* a,
__global int* b,
__local int* localbuf
){
int thread_idx = get_global_id(0);
int local_idx = get_local_id(0);
__global long16* input = (__global long16*)a;
__global long16* output = (__global long16*)b;
__local long16* local_buf = (__local long16*)localbuf;
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 0] = input[0];
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 1] = input[1];
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 2] = input[2];
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 3] = input[3];
barrier(CLK_LOCAL_MEM_FENCE);
output[thread_idx] = local_buf[thread_idx];
}
The result is not as I expect and output is filled with zeros.
Now, if I simplly replace the local_buf in last line with input, still I will get all zeros in output:
__kernel void test_kernel(
__global int* a,
__global int* b,
__local int* localbuf
){
int thread_idx = get_global_id(0);
int local_idx = get_local_id(0);
__global long16* input = (__global long16*)a;
__global long16* output = (__global long16*)b;
__local long16* local_buf = (__local long16*)localbuf;
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 0] = input[0];
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 1] = input[1];
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 2] = input[2];
local_buf[local_idx * 4 + 3] = input[3];
barrier(CLK_LOCAL_MEM_FENCE);
output[thread_idx] = input[thread_idx];
}
But if I remove the assignment lines to the local buffer as follows:
__kernel void test_kernel(
__global int* a,
__global int* b,
__local int* localbuf
){
int thread_idx = get_global_id(0);
int local_idx = get_local_id(0);
__global long16* input = (__global long16*)a;
__global long16* output = (__global long16*)b;
__local long16* local_buf = (__local long16*)localbuf;
barrier(CLK_LOCAL_MEM_FENCE);
output[thread_idx] = input[thread_idx];
}
I will get the values totally correct in the output array. Also, if I simply do not cast the localbuf to long16 and copy it as ints, everything will work fine.
I really do not know what can be the problem. I am using a nVIDIA GTX 560 Ti.
Update 1: I noticed that this problem does not exist on AMD R9 280X and nVIDIA GTX 280... So, it can be architecture dependent.
Update2: Source Code:
size_t buffer_size = 16 * 1024 / 4 ;
size_t global_ws = buffer_size;
size_t local_ws = 32;
std::vector<int> host_data (buffer_size);
std::vector<int> output_data(buffer_size);
for(size_t i = 0; i < buffer_size; i++){
host_data[i] = static_cast<int>(i);
output_data[i] = 0;
}
cl_mem input = clCreateBuffer(cl->devices[0].ctx, CL_MEM_READ_ONLY | CL_MEM_COPY_HOST_PTR, buffer_size * sizeof(int), host_data.data(), &err); CL_ERROR(err);
cl_mem output = clCreateBuffer(cl->devices[0].ctx, CL_MEM_WRITE_ONLY, buffer_size * sizeof(int), nullptr, &err); CL_ERROR(err);
auto start_frame_time = hrc::now();
clSetKernelArg(kernel, 0, sizeof(cl_mem), &input);
clSetKernelArg(kernel, 1, sizeof(cl_mem), &output);
clSetKernelArg(kernel, 2, buffer_size*sizeof(cl_int), NULL);
err = clEnqueueNDRangeKernel(cl->devices[0].cmd_queue, kernel, 1, nullptr, &global_ws, &local_ws, 0, nullptr, nullptr); CL_ERROR(err);
clFinish(cl->devices[0].cmd_queue);
err = clEnqueueReadBuffer(cl->devices[0].cmd_queue, output, CL_TRUE, 0, buffer_size * sizeof(int), output_data.data(), 0, nullptr, nullptr); CL_ERROR(err);
for (size_t i = 0; i < buffer_size; i++){
std::cout << i << ". " << output_data[i] << std::endl;
if (i % 512 == 0) getchar();
}
std::cout << "Elapsed Time: " << hrc::now() - start_frame_time << std::endl;
long -> 8 bytes
int -> 4 bytes
long16 -> 128 bytes
long16 is 32 times bigger than int.
So if you have 16kB of input/local/output you can only have (according to your kernel code) 512 work items. How many are you launching? Can you put that code as well?
For nVIDIA platform, if you go over these limits, you will get an error not at the kernel launch time but at the enqueueRead(). And the output will not even be read (leaving the output array with zeros). Check the errors there.
Also, AMD/Others might look like it works, but then have half of the results will be wrong.

The error code being returned is -32 that means: CL_INVALID_PLATFORM"
How do I remove this error?

The Nvidia drivers expect you to provide a non-NULL properties pointer as first argument to the clCreateContextFromType call.
The Khronos specification for clCreateContextFromType states that if NULL is passed for the properties parameter, the platform that is selected is implementation dependent. In case of Nvidia the choice seems to be that no platform at all is selected if a NULL pointer is passed. See clCreateContextFromType for more information.
On the other hand, this behavior is consistent with Issue #3 in the cl_khr_icd extension, which would apply if you are using OpenCL through the ICD, and which states:
3: How will the ICD handle a NULL cl_platform_id?
RESOLVED: The NULL platform is not supported by the ICD.
To pass the properties to clCreateContextFromType, first query the platforms with clGetPlatformIDs. Then construct a properties array with the desired platform ID and pass it to clCreateContextFromType. Something along the following lines should work with a C99 compliant compiler:
// query the number of platforms
cl_uint numPlatforms;
errcode = clGetPlatformIDs(0, NULL, &numPlatforms);
shrCheckError(errcode, CL_SUCCESS);
// now get all the platform IDs
cl_platform_id platforms[numPlatforms];
errcode = clGetPlatformIDs(numPlatforms, platforms, NULL);
shrCheckError(errcode, CL_SUCCESS);
// set platform property - we just pick the first one
cl_context_properties properties[] = {CL_CONTEXT_PLATFORM, (int) platforms[0], 0};
clGPUContext = clCreateContextFromType(properties, CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU, NULL, NULL, &errcode);
shrCheckError(errcode, CL_SUCCESS);
