Re: [CMake] Modern CMake + CUDA + Clang

[Stephen McDowell]

Excellent, this is very useful — thanks Robert!

I think I have some answers to some of these, but as I make progress will 
probably reach out to the LLVM mailing lists for help / suggestions 
(particularly with separable compilation and device linking).

I’m still ramping up to speed on developing CMake.  You had mentioned 
CMake_TEST_CUDA which will be helpful down the line, but intermediately is it 
“ok” to just modify *.cmake modules in-place underneath the installed Modules 
and Modules/Compiler directories?  I’ve got a custom install / am not concerned 
about breaking things in it, I’m just wondering if this is a typical practice 
or if I should be re-compiling and re-installing every time I make changes.

[CMake] Modern CMake + CUDA + Clang

[Stephen McDowell]

Hello!

I stumbled across the new 3.8+ CUDA as a language capabilities, and am very 
excited about this!

1. Does anybody know when CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID and 
CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_VERSION were fixed?

With cmake 3.9.4 some of the cuda compiler variables were unset:

   message("CXX compiler stuff:")
   message(STATUS "CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER: ${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER}")
   message(STATUS "CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID:  ${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID}")
   message(STATUS "CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION: ${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_VERSION}")
   message("CUDA compiler stuff:")
   message(STATUS "CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER: ${CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER}")
   message(STATUS "CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID:  ${CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID}")
   message(STATUS "CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_VERSION: ${CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_VERSION}")
   message(FATAL_ERROR "bye bye")

CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER was set, but COMPILER_ID and COMPILER_VERSION were not.  I 
just updated to 3.10.2 and they were giving values I would expect.  I dug 
around under the diffs on Modules but got really turned around.

I would like to set my minimum required version to whenever this was 
introduced, as I would like to wield it.

2. Is there any existing work / discussion on the new world order (CUDA as a 
full-fledged language) and Clang?  I noticed that the following happens:

   if(CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID)
 include(Compiler/${CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID}-CUDA OPTIONAL)
   endif()

leaving room for a Compiler/Clang-CUDA.cmake to be created.  Is there an 
eventual goal to write this?  I think I can maybe help get a prototype working 
if that was the goal for this setup.

3. Supposing CMake + Clang + CUDA was working, the working assumption would be 
that a user sets CUDACXX to clang++, right?  I’m trying to understand if Clang 
as a cuda compiler already works and I have bad local configurations, or if 
they are needing to be written.

Thanks for any thoughts!

-Stephen
