Prerequisites Mac OS X with GPU Compute 2.x or Higher NVIDIA GPU, normally with older model e.g. MacBook Pro retina 2014 or the latest with external eGPU (1) Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, OS X 10.9 Mavericks, or OS X 10.10 Yosemite (1.1) Download and install the CUDA toolkit for NVIDIA GPU (e.g. CUDA toolkit 9.0 for Mac OS X. General CUDA driver update to support macOS 10.12 and NVIDIA display driver 378.05.05.25f01; Recommended CUDA version(s): CUDA 8.0; Supported MAC OS X. 10.12.x; 10.11.x; An alternative method to download the latest CUDA driver is within Mac OS environment. Access the latest driver through System Preferences Other CUDA. Click 'Install CUDA. Download English (India) drivers for NVIDIA hardware -, New Release 6.5.33. Supported MAC OS X 10.10.x 10.9.x 10.8.x An alternative method to download the latest CUDA driver is within Mac OS environment.

The NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit provides a development environment for creating high performance GPU-accelerated applications. With the CUDA Toolkit, you can develop, optimize and deploy your applications on GPU-accelerated embedded systems, desktop workstations, enterprise data centers, cloud-based platforms and HPC supercomputers. Select Target Platform Click on the green buttons that describe your target platform. Only supported platforms will be shown. By downloading and using the software, you agree to fully comply with the terms and conditions of the CUDA EULA. Operating System Architecture Compilation Distribution Version Installer Type Do you want to cross-compile? Yes No Select Host Platform Click on the green.

NVIDIA® CUDA Toolkit 11.0 no longer supports development or running applications on macOS. While there are no tools which use macOS as a target environment, NVIDIA is making macOS host versions of these tools that you can launch profiling and debugging sessions on supported target platforms.

You may download all these tools here. Note that the Nsight tools provide the ability to download these macOS host versions on their respective product pages.

Instructions for installing cuda-gdb on the macOS

Cuda Mac Os

    This tar archive holds the distribution of the CUDA 11.0 cuda-gdb debugger front-end for macOS.
    Native macOS debugging is not supported in this release. Remote debugging from a macOS host to other CUDA enabled targets, however, is supported.
    To install:
    1. Create an installation directory
        INSTALL_DIR=$HOME/cuda-gdb-darwin-11.0
        mkdir $INSTALL_DIR
        cd $INSTALL_DIR
    2. Download the cuda-gdb-darwin-11.0.tar.gz tar archive into $INSTALL_DIR above
    3. Unpack the tar archive
        tar fxvz cuda-gdb-darwin-11.0.tar.gz
    4. Add the bin directory to your path
        PATH=$INSTALL_DIR/bin:$PATH
    5. Run cuda-gdb --version to confirm you're picking up the correct binaries
        cuda-gdb --version
    6. You should see the following output:

        Instructions for installing Visual Profiler on the macOS

          Native macOS profiling is not supported in this release. Remote profiling from a macOS host to other CUDA enabled targets, however, is supported.
          Supported Mac platforms: Mac OS X 10.13
          Steps to install:
          1. Double click .dmg file to mount it and access it in finder.
          2. Drag nvvp folder and drop it to any location you want (say <nvvp_mac>).
            Directory Structure:
              |--nvvp
              |--bin/
              |--lib64/
              |--libnvvp/
          3. Download and install the required version of JDK.
            (Refer to the Notes about JRE Requirements when using Visual Profiler on the macOS section, below)

          Steps to run:
          1. Open terminal.
          2. Change to the bin folder
              > cd <nvvp_mac>/nvvp/bin
          3. Run nvvp script file in command line
              > ./nvvp -vm <path_to_java>
            <path_to_java> should point to the JRE update 151 version of Java (See Notes about JRE Requirements, below).
              For example:
              > ./nvvp -vm /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java

        Notes about JRE Requirements when using Visual Profiler on the macOS

          OpenJDK provides an open-source (and standards compliant) implementation of a Java compliant JVM.
          Binaries are provided by various vendors such as Oracle, Azul Systems (Zulu), Amazon, Red Hat, IBM, etc.
          Visual Profiler needs to use an older version of Java, specifically JRE update 151, to work correctly.
          This is currently not offered by Oracle JDK but is provided by Azul Systems (Zulu).
          The Bazel Build project also uses the Zulu builds of OpenJDK.
          Download JDK 8.0.144 to get JRE update 151:
            • Download version: 8u144-b01 (Zulu: 8.23.0.3) .dmg.zip.tar.gz
            • Download version: Zulu 8.23.0.3 (build 1.8.0_144-b01 .zip
