Description

Hi,

I would like to ask about the minimum CUDA version required for using the following scaling modes in cublasLtMatmul:

  • CUBLASLT_MATMUL_DESC_A_SCALE_POINTER set with
    CUBLASLT_MATMUL_MATRIX_SCALE_VEC128_32F
  • CUBLASLT_MATMUL_DESC_B_SCALE_POINTER set with
    CUBLASLT_MATMUL_MATRIX_SCALE_BLK128x128_32F

When using these scale modes in cublasLtMatmul, what is the minimum supported CUDA version?

If there are also specific requirements on GPU architecture or cuBLASLt version, I would appreciate it if you could clarify that as well.

Thanks!
