我正在使用cuda-sdkand cuda-toolkit包在 Arch Linux 上进行 GPGPU 开发。我尝试以cuda-gdb普通用户身份在一个简单的程序上运行导致：

Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

如果我cuda-gdb以 root 身份运行，它会正常运行：

测试程序driver.cu是：

// needed for nvcc with gcc 4.7 and iostream
#undef _GLIBCXX_ATOMIC_BUILTINS
#undef _GLIBCXX_USE_INT128

#include <iostream>
#include <thrust/device_vector.h>
#include <thrust/host_vector.h>

__global__
void set_vector(int *a)
{
  // get thread id
  int id = threadIdx.x + blockIdx.x * blockDim.x;
  a[id] = id;
  __syncthreads();
}

int main(void)
{
  // settings
  int len = 10; int trd = 10;

  // allocate vectors
  thrust::device_vector<int> vd(len);

  // get the raw pointer
  int *a = thrust::raw_pointer_cast(vd.data());

  // call the kernel
  set_vector<<<1,trd>>>(a);

  // print vector
  for (int i=0; i<len; i++)
    std::cout << "vd[" << i << "] = " << vd[i] << std::endl;

  return 0;
}

driver.c使用以下命令编译：

$ nvcc -g -G -gencode arch=compute_20,code=sm_20 driver.cu -o driver

如何cuda-gdb在没有 root 权限的情况下运行？

谢谢你。从它的声音来看，您的问题是所需的设备节点没有被初始化。通常，运行 X 将创建 CUDA 软件堆栈与硬件通信所需的设备节点。当 X 没有运行时，就像这里的情况一样，以 root 身份运行会创建节点。由于缺乏权限，普通用户无法创建节点。在没有 X 的情况下运行 Linux 系统时，推荐的方法是以 root 身份运行以下脚本（来自http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/DevZone/docs/html/C/doc/CUDA_Getting_Started_Linux的入门指南.pdf )

#!/bin/bash
/sbin/modprobe nvidia
if [ "$?" -eq 0 ]; then
# Count the number of NVIDIA controllers found.
NVDEVS=`lspci | grep -i NVIDIA`
N3D=`echo "$NVDEVS" | grep "3D controller" | wc -l`
NVGA=`echo "$NVDEVS" | grep "VGA compatible controller" | wc -l`
N=`expr $N3D + $NVGA - 1`
for i in `seq 0 $N`; do
mknod -m 666 /dev/nvidia$i c 195 $i
done
mknod -m 666 /dev/nvidiactl c 195 255
else
exit 1
fi

请注意，您需要在每次启动时重新创建设备节点，因此最好将此脚本（或类似脚本）添加到您的启动序列中。

@Till：对作为答案的问题表示歉意:)。我是 SO 新手，没有足够的声誉来发表评论。

最新的 Nvidia 驱动程序 (304.60) 和最新版本的 cuda (5.0.35) 已修复此问题。 cuda-gdb不需要root权限即可运行。
