Cuda 学习教程：Cuda 程序初始化

Cuda程序初始化

目前，cuda里面没有对设备的初始化函数InitDevice()，只能每次调用的api函数的时候，加载设备的上下文，自动进行初始化，这将带来问题：

---

• First函数调用的时候，需要自动初始化设备，因此耗时过长
• 无法分析第一个api函数的耗时

---

处理办法

• 在程序前加设置初始化函数： cudaFree(0)，后面程序就不会再次初始化，cudamalloc()也将很快;
• 一次初始化后，程序cudamalloc()分配的内存不释放，继续使用，所有程序运行结束后，再一起释放。

TestCode

简单的测试demo，例如：

#include <time.h>

#include<iostream>
