## 5.9.3. Functions

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsDisable(CUpti_SassMetricsDisable_Params *pParams)

  SASS metric data collection disable API will mark the end of a range, any kernel launched after this API call will not be profiled for the SASS metrics.

  Parameters

    pParams – A pointer to CUpti_SassMetricsDisable_Params

  Return values

    - CUPTI_SUCCESS –

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER – if any `pParams` is not valid

    - CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED – indicates that the system/device doesn’t support SASS metric data collection

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT – if any cuda context has not been created prior to this API call

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION – if this API is called multiple times for a cuda context without calling cuptiSassMetricsEnable() API or called before cuptiSassMetricsSetConfig() API call.

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsEnable(CUpti_SassMetricsEnable_Params *pParams)

  Sass metric data collection enable API will mark the start of a range, between which kernel will be profiled for SASS metrics.

  Parameters

    pParams – A pointer to CUpti_SassMetricsEnable_Params

  Return values

    - CUPTI_SUCCESS –

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER – if any `pParams` is not valid

    - CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED – indicates that the system/device doesn’t support SASS metric data collection

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT – if any cuda context has not been created prior to this API call

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION – if this API is called multiple times for a cuda context without calling cuptiSassMetricsDisable() API or called before cuptiSassMetricsSetConfig() API call.

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsFlushData(CUpti_SassMetricsFlushData_Params *pParams)

  Flush SASS metrics data from CUPTI internal buffer to the user buffer.

  User needs to allocate the buffer for retrieving the data. The number of records collected can be queried using the API cuptiSassMetricsGetDataProperties().

  Parameters

    pParams – A pointer to CUpti_SassMetricsFlushData_Params

  Return values

    - CUPTI_SUCCESS –

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER – if any `pParams` is not valid

    - CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED – indicates that the system/device doesn’t support SASS metric data collection.

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION – if this API is called outside the enable/disable range.

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsGetDataProperties(CUpti_SassMetricsGetDataProperties_Params *pParams)

  SASS metric data properties API will give the data regarding number of instances of a metric value and number of SASS instruction data has been collected.

  The number of instances of a metric will vary as per user set the output granularity level with CUpti_SassMetrics_OutputGranularity value. User need to allocate memory for retriving the SASS data using cuptiSassMetricsFlushData() API.

  Parameters

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsGetProperties(CUpti_SassMetrics_GetProperties_Params *pParams)

  Get metric properties for the queried metric.

  For a given metric the results will be put in CUpti_SassMetrics_MetricDetails which stores metric ID, description of the metric.

    pParams – A pointer to CUpti_SassMetrics_GetProperties_Params

  Return values

    - CUPTI_SUCCESS –

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER – if any `pParams` is not valid

    - CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED – indicates that the system/device doesn’t support SASS metric data collection

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsSetConfig(CUpti_SassMetricsSetConfig_Params *pParams)

  Set config for the SASS metric data collection for a device.

  User need to call this API before calling any of the SASS metric data collection APIs. Each set config API call need to be followed by cuptiSassPatchingUnSetConfig API before calling the cuptiSassMetricsSetConfig() API again for the same device.

  Parameters

    pParams – A pointer to CUpti_SassMetricsSetConfig_Params

  Return values

    - CUPTI_SUCCESS –

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER – if any `pParams` is not valid

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT – if any cuda context has not been created prior to this API call

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION – if this is called multiple times for the device without calling unset config API

    - CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED – indicates that the system/device doesn’t support SASS metric data collection

CUptiResult cuptiSassMetricsUnsetConfig(CUpti_SassMetricsUnsetConfig_Params *pParams)

  Unset config API will reset the SASS metric data collection configuration for the device.

  Once this API called CUPTI will deallocate all the memory allocated and remove all the configuration for SASS metric data collection. User can only call this API for a device where cuptiSassMetricsSetConfig() API has been called earlier for the device.

  Parameters

    pParams – A pointer to CUpti_SassMetricsSetConfig_Params

  Return values

    - CUPTI_SUCCESS –

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER – if any `pParams` is not valid

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT – if any cuda context has not been created prior to this API call

    - CUPTI_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION – if this is called multiple times for the device without calling set config API

    - CUPTI_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED – indicates that the system/device doesn’t support SASS metric data collection
