Cycles Rendering GPU in OSX 10.8.2 not working [sm_30]
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

--- Operating System, Graphics card ---
Mac OSX 10.8.2, gtx650m

--- Blender version with error, and version that worked ---
In version 2.65.10 r54336M does not work, this is the link to the build http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.66#Blender_2.66_Release_Notes
In version 2.65.10 r54408M it works , this is is the link to the build that works http://www.graphicall.org/856#be-nice

--- Short description of error ---
In the new official test build for 2.66 on mac 64 bit with my current hardware when you go to render with the GPU it reports back the error "CUDA kernel compilation failed", however I have the toolkit 4.2 and the cuda driver installed yet it will not render.
I found that build 2.65.10 r54408M works just fine

Also I found in the build 2.65.10 r54336M which is the build that don't work work ,it has missing scripts if you show package and go deep into the cycles folder then into the lib folder. The missing scripts are as follows.
kernel_sm_10.cubin
kernel_sm_11.cubin
kernel_sm_12.cubin
kernel_sm_13.cubin
kernel_sm_20.cubin
kernel_sm_21.cubin
kernel_sm_30.cubin



--- Steps for others to reproduce the error (preferably based on attached .blend file) ---
set to gpu render and try to render in viewport on 10.8.2 osx with a Kepler GPU card

Notes ---
I'm not a programmer so this is over my head but i report in case it helps ;)

Hi,
on Mac OS X, we don't bundle the CUDA kernels, the user needs to compile those themselves.

You need the CUDA Toolkit 4.2.x and XCODE installed.

Also, for future reference, the error message says: "CUDA kernel compilation failed, see console for details." So looking into the console (start Blender from a terminal) can help. :)

I have both toolkit 4.2 and xcode installed and as I said it works in the second build but not the first, also it does not work in the latest stable release of blender 2.65a.
How can it work in one build and not another ?, I don't really understand it much but when I Google it lots of people with 10.8.2 and gtx650m seem to all be receiving the same issue.
When checking the console it comes up with
Compiling CUDA kernel ...
gcc: No such file or directory
CUDA kernel compilation failed, see console for details.

Yet I got both cuda toolkit 4.2 and xcode installed, I have also tried toolkit 5

Thomas Dinges (dingto) added a comment.Feb 11 2013, 5:29 PM

It does not find gcc, which is part of xcode afaik.

Assigning to Jens

Thanks so maybe it is a bug , ill re-download and install xcode(seems I may have a developer preview release), ill get back to yeah soon ;).
Ps. no internet slang for me I had to google afaik meaning ;)

steven shearing (steven198807) added a comment.Feb 11 2013, 7:16 PM

I have now download/installed xcode 4.5.2 and it is still the same error.

jens verwiebe (jensverwiebe) added a comment.Feb 11 2013, 7:33 PM

You need the xcode commandlinetools for cuda kernelcompile.
Thats also way smaller ( around 130MB ) than full xcode.
But now while you got it, goto xcode preferences -> download -> components and
get the commandlinetolls from there. ( just press on "install" )

I formely explained why i don't provide cudakernels atm. Perhaps we could host
them for postinstall somewhere, so a user can get the kernel_sm_<cuda_version>.cubin
he needs.

Thanks now just waiting for it to install, ill get back to you soon as its finshed ;)
Sorry I'm only a user trying my best to get blender working on my mac ;).

Maybe this web page link could be updated for better instructions on how to get it working, honestly it was the first place I went when it would not render in GPU mode.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/GPU_Rendering#On_Mac_OS_X.2C_no_CUDA_GPU_is_available
shorty after I Google a lot.

Marking as sm_30 error then and re-assign to Brecht.

Deleted Blender and downloaded 2.65a , tried view port as gpu mode and teh full error below.

Testing here on OS X 10.8.2, blender 2.65a, it works ok. Are you building with toolkit 4.2? If you still have 5.0 installed it might not work.

The output of this:
/usr/local/cuda/bin/nvcc --version

Ok it seems both 4.2 and 5.0 are installed at the same time, mmmm il try to unstall 5.0 and report back here, any advice on removing 5.0 would be nice.
At the moment I'm re-downloading 5 to see if the 5.0 has a option to uninstall it, I saw under developer folder on root of drive has both 4.2 and 5.

steven shearing (steven198807) added a comment.Feb 11 2013, 9:38 PM

5 has no option to uninstall it , guess ill install 4.2 again to see if it overwrites it.

It is now is 4.2 once again, and reports back below the same as you said ;).

Please test with recent 2.66 Testbuild again. http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.66/

steven shearing (steven198807) added a comment.Feb 11 2013, 10:13 PM

Finally fixed it.
After reinstalling 4.2 toolkit it showed in terminal it was 4.2 once again as you said it would, but yet the problem remained.
Well I opened the root of my drive and yet the 5.0 folder was still sitting there next to 4.2 folder so I sent it to the trash and bingo its working in fresh copy of 2.65a and the new test build for the next release 2.66. Basically somehow the 5.0 folder was conflicting with 4.2.
So finally its working how it should thank you all very much ;)

I am a little concerned how hard it could be for other mac users and hope that easy to follow instructions can be given to mac users.
Is there a wiki page I could update ? to put simple instructions for mac users.

Its working nicely now which is great, sorry for wasting your time, but bight-side is that the instructions can now be given and ill help other user's in the same mess .

Thomas Dinges (dingto) added a comment.Feb 11 2013, 10:29 PM

Hi,
great that it works now.
We have infos in the Cycles wiki: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Cycles/GPU_Rendering
See the point "On Mac OS X, no CUDA GPU is available".
