# hipify-clang `hipify-clang` is a clang-based tool to automatically translate CUDA source code into portable HIP C++. ## Table of Contents - [Using hipify-clang](#using-hipify-clang) * [Build and install](#build-and-install) * [Running and using hipify-clang](#running-and-using-hipify-clang) - [Disclaimer](#disclaimer) ## Build and install ### Dependencies `hipify-clang` requires: 1. LLVM+CLANG of at least version 3.8.0, latest stable release is 6.0.0. 2. CUDA at least version 7.5, latest supported release is 9.0. | **LLVM release version** | **CUDA latest supported version** | |:------------------------:|:---------------------------------:| | 3.8.0 | 7.5 | | 3.8.1 | 7.5 | | 3.9.0 | 7.5 | | 3.9.1 | 7.5 | | 4.0.0 | 8.0 | | 4.0.1 | 8.0 | | 5.0.0 | 8.0 | | 5.0.1 | 8.0 | | 5.0.2 | 8.0 | | 6.0.0 | 9.0 | | 6.0.1 | 9.0 | In most cases, you can get a suitable version of LLVM+CLANG with your package manager. Failing that or having multiple versions of LLVM, you can [download a release archive](http://releases.llvm.org/), build or install it, and set [CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/variable/CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.html) so `cmake` can find it; for instance: `-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=f:\LLVM\6.0.0\dist` ### Build Assuming this repository is at `./HIP`: ```shell cd hipify-clang mkdir build dist cd build cmake \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../dist \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ .. make -j install ``` On Windows the following option should be specified for `cmake` at first place: `-G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64"` and after `cmake` the generated `hipify-clang.sln` should be built by `Visual Studio 15 2017` instead of `make`. Debug build type `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug` is also supported and tested, `LLVM+CLANG` should be built in `Debug` mode as well. 64 bit build mode `-Thost=x64` is supported as well, `LLVM+CLANG` should be built (installed) in 64bit mode as well. The binary can then be found at `./dist/bin/hipify-clang`. ### Test `hipify-clang` has unit tests using LLVM [`lit`](https://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/lit.html)/[`FileCheck`](https://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/FileCheck.html). **LLVM+CLANG should be built from sources, Pre-Built Binaries are not exhaustive for testing.** To run it: 1. Download [`LLVM`](http://releases.llvm.org/6.0.0/llvm-6.0.0.src.tar.xz)+[`CLANG`](http://releases.llvm.org/6.0.0/cfe-6.0.0.src.tar.xz) sources. 2. Build [`LLVM+CLANG`](http://llvm.org/docs/CMake.html). For instance: ```shell cd llvm mkdir build dist cd build cmake \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../dist \ -DLLVM_SOURCE_DIR=../llvm \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -Thost=x64 \ ../llvm make -j install ``` On Windows the following option should be specified for `cmake` at first place: `-G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64"` and after `cmake` the generated `LLVM.sln` should be built by `Visual Studio 15 2017` instead of `make`. 3. Ensure [`CUDA`](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-toolkit-archive) of minimum version 7.5 is installed. * Having multiple CUDA installations in order to choose a concrete version the `DCUDA_TOOLKIT_ROOT_DIR` option should be specified: `-DCUDA_TOOLKIT_ROOT_DIR="C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/v9.0"` * On Windows `CUDA_SDK_ROOT_DIR` option should be specified as well: `-DCUDA_SDK_ROOT_DIR="c:/ProgramData/NVIDIA Corporation/CUDA Samples/v9.0"` 4. Ensure [`cuDNN`](https://developer.nvidia.com/rdp/cudnn-archive) of version corresponding to CUDA's version is installed. * Path to cuDNN should be specified by the `CUDA_DNN_ROOT_DIR` option: `-DCUDA_DNN_ROOT_DIR=f:/CUDNN/cudnn-9.0-windows10-x64-v7.1` 5. Ensure [`python`](https://www.python.org/downloads) of minimum required version 2.7 is installed. 6. Ensure `lit` and `FileCheck` are installed - these are distributed with LLVM. * installing `lit` into `python` might be required: `python f:/LLVM/6.0.0/llvm/utils/lit/setup.py install`, where `f:/LLVM/6.0.0/llvm` is LLVM sources root directory. * Starting with LLVM 6.0.0 path to llvm-lit.py script should be specified by the `LLVM_EXTERNAL_LIT` option: `-DLLVM_EXTERNAL_LIT=f:/LLVM/6.0.0/build/Release/bin/llvm-lit.py`, where `f:/LLVM/6.0.0/build/Release` is LLVM build directory. 7. Build with the `HIPIFY_CLANG_TESTS` option turned on: -DHIPIFY_CLANG_TESTS=1. 8. `make test-hipify` On Windows after `cmake` the project `test-hipify` in the generated `hipify-clang.sln` should be built by `Visual Studio 15 2017` instead of `make test-hipify`. ### Windows On Windows the following configurations are tested: LLVM 6.0.0 - 6.0.1, CUDA 9.0, cudnn-9.0 LLVM 5.0.0 - 5.0.2, CUDA 8.0, cudnn-8.0 Build system for the above configurations: Python 3.6 (min), cmake 3.10 (min), Visual Studio 15.5 2017 (min). Here is an example of building `hipify-clang` with testing support on `Windows 10` by `Visual Studio 15 2017`: ```shell cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" \ -DHIPIFY_CLANG_TESTS=1 \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../dist \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=f:/LLVM/6.0.0/dist \ -DCUDA_TOOLKIT_ROOT_DIR="c:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/v9.0" \ -DCUDA_SDK_ROOT_DIR="c:/ProgramData/NVIDIA Corporation/CUDA Samples/v9.0" \ -DCUDA_DNN_ROOT_DIR=f:/CUDNN/cudnn-9.0-windows10-x64-v7.1 \ -DLLVM_EXTERNAL_LIT=f:/LLVM/6.0.0/build/Release/bin/llvm-lit.py \ -Thost=x64 .. ``` A corresponding successful output: ```shell -- Found LLVM 6.0.0: -- - CMake module path: F:/LLVM/6.0.0/dist/lib/cmake/llvm -- - Include path : F:/LLVM/6.0.0/dist/include -- - Binary path : F:/LLVM/6.0.0/dist/bin -- Found PythonInterp: C:/Program Files/Python36/python.exe (found suitable version "3.6.4", minimum required is "2.7") -- Found lit: C:/Program Files/Python36/Scripts/lit.exe -- Found FileCheck: F:/LLVM/6.0.0/dist/bin/FileCheck.exe -- Found CUDA: C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/v9.0 (found version "9.0") -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: f:/HIP/hipify-clang/build ``` ## Running and using hipify-clang To process a file, `hipify-clang` needs access to the same headers that would be needed to compile it with clang. For example: ```shell hipify-clang square.cu -- \ -x cuda \ --cuda-path=/opt/cuda \ --cuda-gpu-arch=sm_30 \ -isystem /opt/cuda/samples/common/inc -I /opt/cuda/cuDNN ``` `hipify-clang` arguments are given first, followed by a separator, and then the arguments you'd pass to `clang` if you were compiling the input file. The [Clang manual for compiling CUDA](https://llvm.org/docs/CompileCudaWithLLVM.html#compiling-cuda-code) may be useful. For a list of `hipify-clang` options, run `hipify-clang --help`. ## Disclaimer The information contained herein is for informational purposes only, and is subject to change without notice.
