would it be possible to have a (short) summary of the CUDA support introduced in the latest release?
Thanks, Bruno

Hello Bruno,
the short answer is: no such suppport was introduced. All that was done was make (parts of) the toolkit compile with nvcc again.
Yours, Roland

To my knowledge, the improved support means that it is now possible to mix CUDA and C++ code in the same source files. That is, you can compile C++ code with a CUDA compiler, which will pass on the C++ bits to the regular C++ compiler while extracting the CUDA code. This is merely a technical improvement of the make system that makes it easier to write one version code that can run on both a CPU or a GPU, instead of having to write two separate versions of the code.
The real CUDA-related work happened in CarpetX https://bitbucket.org/eschnett/cactusamrex/, which is not part of the Einstein Toolkit yet. But we're getting there!

Roland and Erik, thanks a lot for the explanation. I saw the release notes with CUDA listed in the larger changes and this is why I asked.
Erik, does CarpetX already support GPU via AMReX or is more work needed?
Thanks, Bruno

GPUs are supported and are working fine. A WaveToy is working, but I haven't tested it in the past weeks. The Einstein equations require more work to be efficient on GPUs.

Erik, thanks. Do you have any instructions (or simfactory files) to share if I wanted to try compiling and running it on GPUs? I have access to a GPU cluster at CINECA in Italy and I may try running there (each node has 4 x NVIDIA Volta V100 GPUs). The theory group here in Bicocca is also going to buy a server with 4 x NVIDIA A100 GPUs for testing purposes.
I do not have experience with GPUs, but I'm happy to help if needed.
Cheers, Bruno

I don't have any official files to share. I'll attach my own configuration files which depend on many self-installed software packages.
If you are interested in using GPUs, then we can meet on Zoom (with your collaborators or students, and others who are interested), and I can give a brief demonstration.
