Parameters

[in]	launchParamsList	List of launch parameters, one per device.
[in]	numDevices	Size of the launchParamsList array.
[in]	flags	Flags to control launch behavior.

Returns: hipSuccess, hipErrorNotInitialized, hipErrorInvalidValue

◆ hipExtModuleLaunchKernel()

HIP_PUBLIC_API hipError_t hipExtModuleLaunchKernel	(	hipFunction_t	f,
		uint32_t	globalWorkSizeX,
		uint32_t	globalWorkSizeY,
		uint32_t	globalWorkSizeZ,
		uint32_t	localWorkSizeX,
		uint32_t	localWorkSizeY,
		uint32_t	localWorkSizeZ,
		size_t	sharedMemBytes,
		hipStream_t	hStream,
		void **	kernelParams,
		void **	extra,
		hipEvent_t	startEvent,
		hipEvent_t	stopEvent,
		uint32_t	flags
	)

Launches kernel with parameters and shared memory on stream with arguments passed to kernel params or extra arguments.

Parameters

[in]	f	Kernel to launch.
[in]	globalWorkSizeX	X grid dimension specified in work-items.
[in]	globalWorkSizeY	Y grid dimension specified in work-items.
[in]	globalWorkSizeZ	Z grid dimension specified in work-items.
[in]	localWorkSizeX	X block dimension specified in work-items.
[in]	localWorkSizeY	Y block dimension specified in work-items.
[in]	localWorkSizeZ	Z block dimension specified in work-items.
[in]	sharedMemBytes	Amount of dynamic shared memory to allocate for this kernel. HIP-Clang compiler provides support for extern shared declarations.
[in]	hStream	Stream where the kernel should be dispatched. May be 0, in which case the default stream is used with associated synchronization rules.
[in]	kernelParams	pointer to kernel parameters.
[in]	extra	Pointer to kernel arguments. These are passed directly to the kernel and must be in the memory layout and alignment expected by the kernel. All passed arguments must be naturally aligned according to their type. The memory address of each argument should be a multiple of its size in bytes. Please refer to hip_porting_driver_api.md for sample usage.
[in]	startEvent	If non-null, specified event will be updated to track the start time of the kernel launch. The event must be created before calling this API.
[in]	stopEvent	If non-null, specified event will be updated to track the stop time of the kernel launch. The event must be created before calling this API.
[in]	flags	The value of hipExtAnyOrderLaunch, signifies if kernel can be launched in any order.

Returns: hipSuccess, hipInvalidDeviceId, hipErrorNotInitialized, hipErrorInvalidValue.

HIP/ROCm actually updates the start event when the associated kernel completes. Currently, timing between startEvent and stopEvent does not include the time it takes to perform a system scope release/cache flush - only the time it takes to issues writes to cache.

Note: For this HIP API, the flag 'hipExtAnyOrderLaunch' is not supported on AMD GFX9xx boards.
