How to properly construct CUSP coo matrix from passed arrays

Question

I am trying to integrate CUSP into an existing Fortran code. Right now I am just trying to get the basic set up for thrust / CUSP to feed in arrays from Fortran and use them to construct a CUSP matrix (coo format right now). I have been able to get a wrapper like C routine to compile into a library and link it with the Fortran code thanks to this thread: unresolved-references-using-ifort-with-nvcc-and-cusp

And I can verify that Fortran is correctly feeding in array pointers thanks to help from a previous thread: Generating CUSP coo_matrix from passed FORTRAN arrays

Unfortunately, I still can not get CUSP to use these to generate and print a matrix. The code and output are shown below:

Your thrust/CUSP side code for handling pointers is totally incorrect. This:

thrust::device_ptr<int> wrapped_device_I(row_i);

doesn't do what you think it does. What you have effectively done is cast a host address into a device address. That is illegal unless you are working with CUDA managed memory, and I see no evidence of that in this code. What you want to do is allocate memory and copy the Fortran arrays to the GPU before starting. Do something like:

thrust::device_ptr<int> wrapped_device_I = thrust::device_malloc<int>(nnz);
thrust::copy(row_i, row_i + nnz, wrapped_device_I);

[disclaimer: totally untested, use at own risk]

For each of the COO vectors. I would, however, suggest replacing most of the code in the GPU setup section of test_coo_mat_print_ with thrust::vector instances instead. Apart from being easier to use, you get free memory deallocation when they fall out of scope so that there is far less possibility of engineering memory leaks. So something like:

thrust::device_vector<int> device_I(row_i, row_i + nnz);

takes care of everything in a single call.

As a final tip, if you are developing multi-language codebases, design them such that the code in each language is fully independent and has its own native test code. If you had done that in this case, you would have discovered that the C++ part was not working independently of whatever Fortran problems you were having. It would have made debugging much simpler.
