Unexpected behavior with local array and match
Describe the bug
Unexpected behavior when using a local array and match expression.
To Reproduce
let op =
<@
fun x y ->
let mutable res = x * y
if res = 0uy then None else (Some res)
@>
let run =
<@
fun (ndRange: Range1D) (x: ClArray<byte>) (y: ClArray<byte>) (array: ClArray<byte>) ->
let mutable i = ndRange.GlobalID0
let a = x.[i]
let b = y.[i]
let increase = (%op) a b
match increase with
| Some v -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- 1uy
| _ -> ()
let lid = ndRange.LocalID0
let la = localArray<bool> 32
la.[lid] <- false
let buff: byte option = None
match buff, increase with
| Some _, Some _ -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 4uy
| None, Some _ -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 8uy
| Some _, None -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 16uy
| None, None -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 32uy
@>
let program = context.Compile(run)
let kernel = program.GetKernel()
let workGroupSize = 32
let array = context.CreateClArray<byte>(Array.create workGroupSize 0uy)
let x = context.CreateClArray<byte>(Array.create workGroupSize 240uy)
let y = context.CreateClArray<byte>(Array.create workGroupSize 112uy)
let ndRange = Range1D.CreateValid(workGroupSize, workGroupSize)
q.Post(
Msg.MsgSetArguments
(fun () ->
kernel.KernelFunc
ndRange
x
y
array)
)
q.Post(Msg.CreateRunMsg<_, _>(kernel))
The value array.[1] is always 33 after starting this code. This may mean that the code is executed in two contradictory match branches.
The problem disappears if the line la.[lid] <- false is deleted.
The problem disappears as well if the line | _ -> () is replaced by | _ -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- 0uy in the first match expression.
Expected behavior
The value array.[1] must be 32.
Can it be caused by unexpected behaviour of overflow? If array y initialized by 0uy all works fine. But for the original code execution goes to else (Some res) branch (you can check it using printf function in this branch).
This prints "AA" for me and the code does work properly, but doesn't without printing
let op =
<@
fun x y ->
let mutable res = x * y
if res = 0uy then
printf "AA"
None
else
printf "BB"
(Some res)

Well...
The following simplified version of kernel behaves wrong (array.[1] is 33) on my Intel HD graphics, but works correct (array.[1] = 32) on my NVidia GPGPU.
let run =
<@
fun (ndRange: Range1D) (x: ClArray<byte>) (y: ClArray<byte>) (array: ClArray<byte>) ->
let i = ndRange.GlobalID0
let a = x.[i]
let b = y.[i]
let res = a * b
let increase =
if res = 0uy
then None
else Some res
match increase with
| Some _ -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- 1uy
| _ -> ()
match increase with
Some _ -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 4uy
| None -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 32uy
@>
Moreover, the following version demonstrates the same behevior.
let run =
<@
fun (ndRange: Range1D) (x: ClArray<byte>) (y: ClArray<byte>) (array: ClArray<byte>) ->
let i = ndRange.GlobalID0
let res = x.[i] * y.[i]
let mutable increase = None
if res = 0uy
then increase <- None
else increase <- Some res
match increase with
| Some _ -> if i = 1 then array.[i] <- 1uy
| _ -> ()
match increase with
Some _ -> array.[i] <- array.[i] + 4uy
| None -> array.[i] <- array.[i] + 32uy
@>
So, local array is not to blame in incorrect behavior. @artemgl What GPU do you use for tests?
And more simplified kernel:
let run =
<@
fun (ndRange: Range1D) (x: ClArray<byte>) (y: ClArray<byte>) (array: ClArray<byte>) ->
let i = ndRange.GlobalID0
let res = x.[i] * y.[i]
let mutable increase = 0
if res = 0uy
then increase <- 0
else increase <- 1
if increase = 1
then if i = 1 then array.[i] <- 1uy
if increase = 0
then array.[i] <- array.[i] + 32uy
else array.[i] <- array.[i] + 4uy
@>
For Intel array.[1] is 33, for Nvidia --- 32. Manual evaluation of the similar kernel directly with OpenCL C shows the same result.
Finally, I think that it is a sort of undefined behavior on unsigned char overflow. It should not be an undefined behavior formally, so I guess that actually it is a driver (compiler) bug.
OpenCL kernel:
__kernel void brahmaKernel (__global uchar * x, __global uchar * y, __global uchar * array)
{
int i = get_global_id (0) ;
uchar res = (x [i] * y [i]) ;
int increase = 0;
if (res == 0)
{
increase = 0;
}
else
{
increase = 1;
}
if (increase == 1)
{
if (i == 1)
{
array [i] = 1 ;
}
}
if (increase == 0)
{
array [i] = array [i] + 32 ;
}
else
{
array [i] = array [i] + 4 ;
}
}

Can't reproduce with AMD and NVIDIA, array.[1] = 32uy in both cases. I had a similar problem where the code seemed to be running on two contradicting branches. Adding if i < 32 helped because threads with larger id's were working and wrote to the same cells. Since workGroupSize is 32 I don't think this will work, but it can be worth trying. Atomic writings to array and printf may also be usefull to diagnose the problem.
