CPU <-> GPU rebranding

[Frizz]

Version 1.4 should do the job.

Thank you very much.

Version 1.4? Do you have a direct download link? Because all I can find on your page is "BoincTasks", which is version 0.66.

Edit: I'm pleased i now have the capability to reschedule Astropulse_v505 between CPU and ATI GPU, but what will happen if used on a host with both ATI and Nvidia GPU's on a project with apps for both?

Hi Fred,
Looks good, was able to move tasks from the GPU to the CPU then back again 

[Frizz]

ReScheduling tasks from GPU to CPU works for me. But not the other way round.

The WUs get killed with this error message:
7/31/2010 5:58:26 PM   SETI@home   [error] No application found for task: windows_intelx86 506 ati13ati; discarding


This is what I have in my app_info.xml:

<name>astropulse_v505</name>

Put the following into your app_info, straight after the <version_num>506</version_num> entry:

<platform>windows_intelx86</platform>

But make sure you don't have any existing GPU tasks when you do it, otherwise you'll loose them too,

Edit: added a dump file from my Atom for fred, then removed once downloaded.

[efmer (fred)]

The 2005 and 2010 compiler complain about an old not supported format.
Maybe the setting or the Atom. Probably the Atom.

Could you add re-schedule option for ATI MB too. It would simplify debugging a lot, especially with half of week outages...
I use next app_version for ATI MB now:
<app_version>
   <app_name>setiathome_enhanced</app_name>
   <version_num>610</version_num>
   <platform>windows_intelx86</platform>
   <avg_ncpus>0.05</avg_ncpus>
   <max_ncpus>0.05</max_ncpus>
   <plan_class>ati13ati</plan_class>
   <file_ref>
      <file_name>MB_6.10_win_SSE3_ATI_r101.exe</file_name>
      <main_program/>
   </file_ref>
    <file_ref>
        <file_name>MultiBeam_Kernels.cl</file_name>
        <copy_file/>
    </file_ref>
   <coproc>
   <type>ATI</type>
   <count>1</count>
   </coproc>
</app_version>

That should work, but I have no conformation from anybody yet.
Press test and the Preferred use box should be filled with all available classes.
Check if ATI is in that list.

[cristipurdel]

ATI MB ... where can we get it?

ATI MB ... where can we get it?

In Russia

Check if ATI is in th`t list.

Looks like you should put one more string in signature - for resheduler app

LoL
But the right question would be not where (here, of course, is the answer ) but when. Currently I debugging its behavior under BOINC. Hope alpha version will be soon, but who knows...

Let me know if it works.... or not.

Ok, now I running your program and ready to make some comments:
1) No mention of ATI GPU at all. Preferred use checkbox has 2 options: none; 608,cuda
2) I have no ATI MB version in app_info now but have ATI AP in app_info - looks like app ignores AP tasks. At least it says there are 0 such tasks(0 GPU tasks at all) (actually it's 1 running, 2 downloading)
3) I checked box to prevent -177 errors. Now app shows in log:
14 August 2010 - 19:07:21 Out of range: rsc_fpops_bound < 500000000000000000.000000, total: 145
What it means? I have no issues with those SETI MB tasks, but over-estimated 3 AP tasks not shown.

1) Means there is no app info in the client state.
2) Ap are ignored, the other tab can reschedule them but can't adjust any runtimes.
3) Checks enhanced only. The 145 don't have the rsc_fpops_bound updated to the higher value.
