Installing CUDA

Follow the official instruction, download CUDA from here.

Select CUDA 12.4.0 (March 2024), and then execute the commands prompted by the instruction on the website.

Here's an example set of commands to run:

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2204/x86_64/cuda-ubuntu2204.pin
sudo mv cuda-ubuntu2204.pin /etc/apt/preferences.d/cuda-repository-pin-600
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.4.0/local_installers/cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-4-local_12.4.0-550.54.14-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-4-local_12.4.0-550.54.14-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/cuda-repo-ubuntu2204-12-4-local/cuda-*-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install cuda-toolkit-12-4

Select CUDA 12.2.2 (August 2023), and then execute the commands prompted by the instruction on the website.

Here's an example set of commands to run:

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu2004/x86_64/cuda-ubuntu2004.pin
sudo mv cuda-ubuntu2004.pin /etc/apt/preferences.d/cuda-repository-pin-600
wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.2.2/local_installers/cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-12-2-local_12.2.2-535.104.05-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-12-2-local_12.2.2-535.104.05-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/cuda-repo-ubuntu2004-12-2-local/cuda-*-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y cuda

After installation, add CUDA to ~/.bashrc:

# ~/.bashrc
...

# CUDA
export PATH="/usr/local/cuda-12.4/bin/:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/cuda-12.4/lib64/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

...

To test cuda installation, run the following command. The system should be able to find nvcc.

$ nvcc -V
nvcc: NVIDIA (R) Cuda compiler driver
Copyright (c) 2005-2024 NVIDIA Corporation
Built on Tue_Feb_27_16:19:38_PST_2024
Cuda compilation tools, release 12.4, V12.4.99
Build cuda_12.4.r12.4/compiler.33961263_0

Note:

nvidia-smi might fail to run with the following error:

$ nvidia-smi
Failed to initialize NVML: Driver/library version mismatch

This happens when the CUDA we installed is a different version than the one comes with the driver. If this happens, reboot the system to let nvidia-smi reload the correct CUDA.

After reboot:

Installing cuDNN

Follow the official instruction, download cuDNN here.

Select "cuDNN v9.3.0, for CUDA 12.x" with the .deb file option, and then execute the commands prompted by the instruction on the website.

Here's an example set of command to run:

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cudnn/9.3.0/local_installers/cudnn-local-repo-ubuntu2204-9.3.0_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i cudnn-local-repo-ubuntu2204-9.3.0_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/cudnn-local-repo-ubuntu2204-9.3.0/cudnn-*-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install cudnn

Select "cuDNN v8.9.7 (December 5th, 2023), for CUDA 12.x" with the .deb file option, and then execute the commands prompted by the instruction on the website.

Here's an example set of command to run:

wget https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cudnn/9.0.0/local_installers/cudnn-local-repo-ubuntu2004-9.0.0_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i cudnn-local-repo-ubuntu2004-9.0.0_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/cudnn-local-repo-ubuntu2004-9.0.0/cudnn-*-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y cudnn

sudo apt install -y cudnn-cuda-12

(might not need do the following)

Install the runtime library.

sudo apt-get install libcudnn8=8.9.7.29-1+cuda12.2

Install the developer library.

sudo apt-get install libcudnn8-dev=8.9.7.29-1+cuda12.2

Install the code samples.

sudo apt-get install libcudnn8-samples=8.9.7.29-1+cuda12.2

run the test program to see if success

Installing TensorRT

There are two parts of TensorRT installation

TensorRT GA

Goto https://developer.nvidia.com/tensorrt

Download both the "TensorRT 10.3 GA for Linux x86_64 and CUDA 12.0 to 12.5 TAR Package" and the DEB package

Warning: Be careful to download the version matching with system CUDA version.

Install the DEB package with Software Install.

Alternatively, do the following commands

sudo dpkg -i ./nv-tensorrt-local-repo-ubuntu2204-10.3.0-cuda-12.5_1.0-1_amd64.deb
sudo cp /var/nv-tensorrt-local-repo-ubuntu2204-10.3.0-cuda-12.5/nv-tensorrt-local-620E7D29-keyring.gpg /usr/share/keyrings/

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nv-tensorrt-local-repo-ubuntu2204-10.3.0-cuda-12.5

We also need to link the libraries. Unpack the tar package:

tar xzvf ./TensorRT-10.3.0.26.Linux.x86_64-gnu.cuda-12.5.tar.gz

Then. move the unpacked directory to the installation path (~/Documents/), and add to bashrc

...

# TensorRT
export TRT_LIBPATH="/home/tk/Documents/TensorRT-10.3.0.26/targets/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib/"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/tk/Documents/TensorRT-10.3.0.26/lib/:$TRT_LIBPATH:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

...

Install to Python using the following command

cd ~/Documents/TensorRT-10.3.0.26/python/
pip install ./tensorrt-10.3.0-cp38-none-linux_x86_64.whl

For TensorRT < 10.3, it might also need this dependency

cd ~/Documents/TensorRT-8.6.1.6/graphsurgeon/
pip install ./graphsurgeon-0.4.6-py2.py3-none-any.whl

TensorRT OSS

Seems that normally we don't need this thing.

For python:

git clone -b main https://github.com/nvidia/TensorRT TensorRT
cd TensorRT
git submodule update --init --recursive

 cd TensorRT
 mkdir -p build && cd build

cmake .. -DTRT_LIB_DIR=$TRT_LIBPATH/lib/ -DTRT_OUT_DIR=`pwd`/out

make -j$(nproc)

Other Dependencies

pip3 install cuda-python

sudo apt install libssl-dev

sudo apt install cmake g++

$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.16.3

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).

pip install onnx
pip install onnxruntime
pip install onnxruntime-gpu
pip install onnx-simplifier
