something wrong with the offload out?

[yuanyuan_s_]

when I us offload like this

#pragma offload target(mic:0)           \
out(curdata2:length(1000)alloc_if(0)free_if(0))
{
        gettimeofday(&tv,NULL);
        L2 = tv.tv_sec*1000*1000 + tv.tv_usec;

                sleep(1);

        gettimeofday(&tv,NULL);
        L2couple = tv.tv_sec*1000*1000 + tv.tv_usec;
}

there will be an error report below:

offload error: process on the device 0 was terminated by signal 11 (SIGSEGV)

and sometime the error report will be another different one

and sometime there is no error it can run correctly.

if I change the offload out into offload inout like this

#pragma offload target(mic:0)           \
inout(curdata2:length(1000)alloc_if(0)free_if(0))

there will be no error any more.

and my code is in the attachment.

I need some help!

thanks!

Thanks for reporting the issue.  I can't reproduce the SIGSEGV with the example you attached.  I see one statement using only 'out':

#pragma offload target(mic:0)           \
out(curdata3:length(1000)alloc_if(0)free_if(0))
{

        gettimeofday(&tv,NULL);
        L2 = tv.tv_sec*1000*1000 + tv.tv_usec;

The example compiles and appears to run normally with icc-15.0.2 + MPSS 3.4.1.  What versions of compiler and MPSS are you using?

[testfolder]$ ./run
data's ok
busy:1.027936,compute:1.006776
busy:1.062453,compute:1.003867

I use composer_xe_2015.0.090 and I don't know how to see the version of mpss.

I want to know that how many times you have run the example, because the error will not appear every time, It just appear sometimes.

And in fact I have another problem, if I comment out the sleep(1) there will be another error. Can you help me with that?

thanks

At least 10 times.  How many times do you suggest?

Please describe the error.  I commented out sleep(1), and see no difference in program behavior.
