The NVIDIA Persistence Daemon is a userspace daemon on Linux to support
|
|
persistence of driver state across Cuda job runs. The daemon targets
|
|
all current Tesla, Quadro and GRID GPUs. For further information, see
|
|
|
|
https://docs.nvidia.com/deploy/driver-persistence/index.html
|
|
|
|
The driver now includes rc.nvidia-persistenced as an option.
|
|
While it can be run as root, it is more secure to run it as an
|
|
unpriveleged user, so we run it as user nvidia.
|
|
|
|
To install it, Pass PERSISTENCED=yes to the script. It will create the
|
|
user and group nvidia, and install rc.nvidia-persistenced to /etc/rc.d.
|
|
|
|
To activate the daemon, add the following to /etc/rc.d/local:
|
|
|
|
# Start the nvidia-persistenced daemon:
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.nvidia-persistenced ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.nvidia-persistenced start
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
and then 'chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.nvidia-persistenced' to make it
|
|
executable.
|
|
|
|
Add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown:
|
|
|
|
# Stop the nvidia-persistenced daemon:
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.nvidia-persistenced ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.nvidia-persistenced stop
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This may not work on all systems. If you encounter problems
|
|
with it, just 'chmod -x /etc/rc.d/rc.persistenced' and it will no
|
|
longer load. YMMV.
