Any idea how many Core 16's are left?

If you think it might be a driver problem, see viewforum.php?f=79

Any idea how many Core 16's are left?

Post by ChasingTheDream »

I can see the Core 16's are being sent out again. I could tell immediately because 4 of my 8 machines was down when I got home. They simply won't run Core 16's and I reduced the GPU clock speeds by 40% with no effect. I've seen these issues before and I actually had a whole thread about it but it was for Core 17 at the time and the only thing that fixed it was a AMD driver update.

So I'm experiencing all the same things talked about here but for Core 16 this time.

viewtopic.php?f=61&t=26421&p=265530&hilit=chasingthedream#p265530

If I restart 4 machines in sequence, by the time I've got the 4th machine restarted the 1st machine has failed again. It is pointless for me to try to run Core 16's on any multi-GPU system. They will never finish. They will run on my single GPU systems and that is the exact same situation described in the thread above. So I'm in a bad situation again that appears to have no solution other than shutting down the multi-GPU systems until all the Core 16's are processed or automate the Core 16 WU dumping on my multi-GPU systems because they won't finish anyway.

I don't understand why the client doesn't allow us to filter core's that will obviously not run on our hardware. If PPD are an issue then make the Core 16's provide the same points as the Core 17's so nobody can complain about it and the work needs to get done regardless of points.

In any event, I'm trying to figure out how long I'll have to jump through hoops to get through the Core 16's. Any idea how many Core 16's are left to process? The answer will determine what steps I take next.

Also what is my WU completion percentage since I may end up dumping quite a few soon? My folding name is ChasingTheDream.

Also to be clear, I don't care in the least about the number of points the Core 16's produce. What is getting under my skin is the fact that I can't keep my machines running for more than a few minutes while Core 16's are processing.

Please post your system configuration. We need to know which version of the client you are running? and which type of GPU do you have.

Also, please post a segment of the log showing the IP addresses of the servers involved during the assignment process.

Stanford is aware that Donors do not like Core_16 assignments and some have trouble with specific versions of OpenCL. Nevertheless, the priority of Core_16 should be set low enough that you will only be assigned it if your system is unable to get an assignment of Core_17 projects.

We need to figure out why you're not getting Core_17 and that isn't a simple process when you don't provide enough information. (See the link below.)

They will run on single GPU systems? Sounds like FAH works just fine to me. If not running on multi-GPU systems, that's a driver issue, not a FAH issue. And FAH can't afford to design around every little driver glitch. That's a never ending battle, and we'd never see a new fah client.


The total number of core_16 work units is not known. If it was, they would have stated that when the EOL was announced.

They are not going to give you a completion percentage in order to allow you to drop work units.

Are you running the latest AMD drivers? At least 14.4 or newer?

I'm on the 7.4.4 client. I've dumped all the Core 16 WU's from the multi-GPU systems so they are running along just fine now. When I get another Core 16 assignment the machine will either lock or BSD crash within a few minutes. The temps on the GPU's are no higher than the Core 17's. I've watched them. In any event, I'll try to get some logs from the next crash when I get one and post them. We've seen this pattern before though in the thread I mentioned previously. Literally all the things to try did not make any difference. A driver update allowed the Core 17's to be stable. I suspect this is the same situation because the behavior is identical.

In any event, I'll wait for the next Core 16 WU and send you the crash logs.

I missed the last part of your message. I do get Core 17 WU's most of the time. In fact, when I dropped the Core 16 WU's they were replaced with Core 17 WU's. It only takes one Core 16 WU to drop my multi-GPU systems like a hot potato though!

I completely agree. Prior to AMD 14.7RC3 (which I'm on now) I couldn't run Core 17 on multi-GPU systems. It was a driver issue all along. The thread I posted previously shows quite a few things to try to no avail. I suspect this is the same issue. I can't drop back a driver level or the Core 17's won't run.

This is why I said I've got two options. Shut the multi-GPU systems down or drop the Core 16 WU's. It would be nice if the client allowed us to exclude a core so when we do run into driver issues such as this we don't have to go to great lengths to get around it.

From what I saw before they used to tell you your completion percentage when you asked. I read that while searching the threads before. If they don't then I guess they don't, but I have few options and as of right now the Core 16 WU's are getting dropped after they crash the system three times, which essentially means 90% of the core 16 WU's that hit a multi-GPU system are going to get dropped. I've done over 8500 WU's so I suspect I have some room to spare.

Bruce, This is from the logs after a crash. I don't know if you are going to need additional logs from a directory. I thought I had a Core 16 make it without incident but it looks like it failed on the send anyway. There is another core 16 running on this machine which is a multi-GPU machine. Unfortunately, I got another Core 16 WU to replace the WU that was sent so I'm guessing the odds of either of the Core 16's actually completing are quite small.

Yes, they will tell you a percentage if you ask for a legitimate reason. Asking for that info to see how many WUs you can safely drop is not, IMO, a legit reason.

Do you really need to shut down the multi-gpu systems? Just remove one of the two GPU slots in FAH for a while until the core_16s run out, or AMD fixes the driver.

I see one GPU made it almost half way through a work unit.

19:18:56:WU00:FS01:0x16:Completed 22000001 out of 50000000 steps (44%)

I would expect it to fail a lot sooner if this was a driver issue.

Just to confirm a bad WU or not, maybe a mod can look up the failure/success of this WU?

It appears that the last failure in the log was Core17:
19:21:43:WU03:FS03:Sending unit results: id:03 state:SEND error:FAILED project:9201 run:359 clone:0 gen:173 core:0x17 unit:0x000000f26652edc45399e428148dca68
Another case where the indices of multiple GPUs are not correctly resolved in the FAH software? That may not matter when three identical cards run the same core, but might well cause errors with mixed cores if the cards are mixed up. There's a thread somewhere about how to sort it out manually -- has that been tried?

There are successful returns of this WU in the database, so far no failures listed by the database.

I have dual 295x2's and my computer runs core x16 units successfully (driver 14.7RC3). However PPD is insanely low -- the GPUs working on those units essentially generate no points (<5k PPD vs 220-260k PPD on core 0x17 units). TPF is about 5m45s.

I find not being able to complete core 16 WU's 90% of the time on multi-GPU systems to be a legitimate reason. The work units will never complete. I can't keep the machines running long enough to complete them unless I stay available to reset them X times for each WU which I find to be just slightly unreasonable.

No you are right. I don't have to shut down the multi-GPU's completely. I could remove slots or the GPU's themselves which would mean I would have to take 7 of my 15 GPU's offline to accommodate WU that reached their EOL a year ago which to me doesn't make sense. I think it is fair to say I would get a lot more done by leaving my GPU's online and simply removing the uncooperative WU's. I would rather have an option in the client that simply allows me to not take Core 16 WU's on the machines I know won't run them. I don't see how this request is unreasonable especially since Standford knows there are issues with these WU's on some hardware.


I went through this thread, but all my GPU's are the exact some type. They are all R9 290X TRI-X cards. In GPU-Z all the cards appear to be exactly the same, even the device id. It would also mean that all my multi-GPU machines would have to have the indexing messed up.

And finally some more logs. The machine who's logs were shown above started locking constantly after I got the log shown above. In fact, in a couple cases I couldn't get the logs before the system locked again.

In the final log, it appears the client dumped most of the WU's and started over. The machine in question is connected to the lan wirelessly so there is a slight delay before the connection is established after a crash. Another part that makes it difficult is that I have to physically reset the computer and then unplug and replug the USB wireless adapter. So each lock / crash requires a physical intervention.

Re: Any idea how many Core 16's are left?

I've got 15 R9 290X TRI-X's and they just don't seem to be able to run the Core 16's on anything other than a single GPU. I've got three machines that run three GPU's and they will run Core 17's all day long without incident but they just don't like the core 16's. I have another machine that is just two GPU's and it handles them better but actually crashes completely when it has an issue. Full on BSD reboot.

Every once in awhile a core 16 will make it through though, but the vast majority don't make it to completion and never will due to the constant crashes.

In any event, the PPD aren't a concern for me. I just don't have time to constantly babysit the machines to try to get these WU's through.

I don't know how many of those GPUs represent multiple installations or how they're grouped. Nevertheless, consider the following possibilities.

I can't predict when Core_16 WUs will go back to a status of mostly inactive, but consider running a single GPU per system until it does. If the drivers are not capable of running multiple dissimilar GPUs, it may be a long time before ATI fixes that problem for older GPUs --- or, consider only running only pairs of identical GPUs. Driver development and testing invariably starts with single GPUs, eventually proceeding to CrossFire where identical pairs of GPUs are tested -- which means those options are more likely to work than random combinations.

In fact, in the literature describing XDMA, they specifically mention that a HD7xxx can be paired with a R9-xxxx so debugging of the latest drivers on the latest hardware is going to be more thorough.

Let us know what you discover.
