Device change?

[ZerBea]

Do not trust nvida-smi!

I can reproduce this problem (if I force a driver/cuda mis-match):

Code:

$ pacman -Q
nvidia 550.90.07-3
nvidia-lts 1:550.90.07-3
nvidia-settings 550.78-1
nvidia-utils 550.90.07-3
opencl-nvidia 550.90.07-3
cuda 12.5.0-1

Code:

$ nvidia-smi
Sun Jun 23 20:01:35 2024      
| NVIDIA-SMI 550.90.07              Driver Version: 550.90.07      CUDA Version: 12.4

The installed version is definitely not 12.4 (as reported by nvidia-smi).


And I end up into the same problem:

Code:

$ hashcat -m 22000 --benchmark
hashcat (v6.2.6-848-gc1a10518f) starting in benchmark mode
...
The device #2 specifically listed was skipped because it is an alias of device #1

* Device #1: Kernel /usr/share/hashcat/OpenCL/shared.cl link failed. Error Log:

After I fixed it (going back to cuda 12.4.1):

Code:

$ pacman -Q
nvidia 550.90.07-3
nvidia-lts 1:550.90.07-3
nvidia-settings 550.78-1
nvidia-utils 550.90.07-3
opencl-nvidia 550.90.07-3
cuda 12.4.1-4

Code:

$ nvidia-smi
Sun Jun 23 20:14:51 2024      
NVIDIA-SMI 550.90.07              Driver Version: 550.90.07      CUDA Version: 12.4

everything is fine:

Code:

$ hashcat -m22000 --benchmark
hashcat (v6.2.6-848-gc1a10518f) starting in benchmark mode
