I made a simple grain growth simulation using JCuda/JOGL interoperability. The program works, in the cpu mode everything is ok, but when I run cuda growth of grains (shape) isn’t correct.
The program is based on the JCudaDriverGLsample. I use vbo to store positions of the points(first half of the vbo) and colors of the points(second half of the vbo). Positions are initialized once and then I use for a simulation only second half of the vbo and auxiliary objects (buffer, array) to store colors. Each position and color has component x,y,z and w. Each position has w = 1.0f all the time, but when a color have component w = 0.0f, there is no grain. I extreme simplify rules - each grain has the same colors, so I don’t have to do some computation.
At the begining the program randomize some initial grains which will grow. Grain mesh dimension = 1000 x 1000.
The question is: where did I make a mistake when I was creating a kernel based on the cpu version ?
Cuda settings:
cuFuncSetBlockShape(function, 10, 10, 1);
cuLaunchGrid(function, 100, 100);
The cpu version works correct. Grains in some phase of growth: screen
