Can't build with NVCC option '--Werror cross-execution-space-call' on Windows

Question

Can't build with NVCC option '--Werror cross-execution-space-call' on Windows

Robadob opened this issue 5 years ago · 3 comments

Tested under Visual Studio 2015 and 2019, with CUDA 10.1/10.2.

If you try to build the below example with --Werror cross-execution-space-call enabled in Visual Studio it will fail.

This is the flag for error : calling a __host__ function from a __host__ __device__ function is not allowed

#include "jitify/jitify.hpp"

int main() {
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Under Visual Studio 2015, it produces the compilation error shown at the bottom of this issue.
TLDR: This is the offending line _ranked_keys.erase(rank);

I'm not actually sure why it's being triggered in this instance, but it's upsetting one of our continuous integration builds, so it would nice if it could be fixed without having to disable that compiler argument

(Note jitify.hpp(2861), shown at the bottom is an incorrect line number, the length of jitify.hpp confuses visual studio compiler for some reason, i previously looked into this and couldn't find an explicit cause beyond breaking the file up into smaller files corrects the line numbers.)

Answer 1 · 2020-05-01T13:10:18.000Z

There is also an issue with assignment in a conditional statement. I have issued a PR (#63) for that but am not sure how to fix the issue above.

Answer 2 · 2020-05-01T13:56:44.000Z

Thanks for the PR!

I filed an internal bug about the __host__ __device__ warnings; it seems to be a compiler issue.
I believe it only affects debug builds, but I don't know if that's of much help to you.

Answer 3 · 2020-05-01T14:42:59.000Z

The __host__ __device__ warnings through MSVC also effect our release builds:
