cuCtxSetLimit ( CUlimit  limit,
size_t  value 
)

Setting limit to value is a request by the application to update the current limit maintained by the context. The driver is free to modify the requested value to meet h/w requirements (this could be clamping to minimum or maximum values, rounding up to nearest element size, etc). The application can use cuCtxGetLimit() to find out exactly what the limit has been set to.

Setting each CUlimit has its own specific restrictions, so each is discussed here.

  • CU_LIMIT_STACK_SIZE controls the stack size of each GPU thread. This limit is only applicable to devices of compute capability 2.0 and higher. Attempting to set this limit on devices of compute capability less than 2.0 will result in the error CUDA_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_LIMIT being returned.

Parameters:
limit - Limit to set
value - Size in bytes of limit
Returns:
CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_LIMIT
Note:
Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.
