2D median filtering in CUDA: how to efficiently copy global memory to shared memory

问题


I'm trying to do a median filter with a window x*y where x and y are odd and parameters of the program.

My idea is first see how many threads I can execute in a single block and how much shared memory I have avaliable, like this:

void cudaInit(int imgX, int imgY, int kx, int ky, int* cudaVars){
        int device;
        int deviceCount;
        cudaDeviceProp deviceProp;

            cudaGetDevice(&device);
            cudaGetDeviceProperties(&deviceProp, device);
        int kxMed = kx/2;
        int kyMed = ky/2;
        int n = deviceProp.maxThreadsPerBlock;
        while(f(n,kxMed,kyMed)>deviceProp.sharedMemPerBlock){
            n = n/2;
        }

        cudaVars[0] = n;
        cudaVars[1] = imgX/cudaVars[0];
        cudaVars[2] = imgY/cudaVars[0];
     }
    }



void mediaFilter_gpuB(uchar4* h_img,int width, int height, int kx, int ky){

    assert(h_img!=NULL && width!=0 && height!=0);
        int dev=0;
    cudaDeviceProp deviceProp;
    //DEVICE
    uchar4* d_img;
    uchar4* d_buf;

    int cudaVars[3]={0};
    cudaInit(width,height,kx,ky,cudaVars);
checkCudaErrors(cudaMalloc((void**) &(d_img), width*height*sizeof(unsigned char)*4));
    checkCudaErrors(cudaMalloc((void**) &(d_buf), width*height*sizeof(unsigned char)*4));

    cudaGetDevice(&dev);
    cudaGetDeviceProperties(&deviceProp,dev);
    checkCudaErrors(cudaMemcpy(d_img, h_img, width*height*sizeof(uchar4), cudaMemcpyHostToDevice));

    dim3 dimGrid(cudaVars[1],cudaVars[2],1);
    dim3 threads(cudaVars[0],1,1);
    mediaFilterB<<<dimGrid,threads,f(cudaVars[0],kx/2,ky/2)>>>(d_buf,d_img,width,height, kx,ky,cudaVars[0]);

    checkCudaErrors(cudaMemcpy(h_img, d_buf, width*height*sizeof(uchar4), cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost));
    checkCudaErrors(cudaFree(d_img));
    checkCudaErrors(cudaFree(d_buf));

}
__device__ void fillSmem(int* sMem, uchar4* buf, int width, int height, int kx, int ky){
    int kyMed=ky/2;
    int kxMed=kx/2;
    int sWidth = 2*kxMed+gridDim.x;
    int sHeight =2*kyMed+gridDim.x;
    int X = blockIdx.x*gridDim.x+threadIdx.x;
    int Y = blockIdx.y*gridDim.y;
    int j=0;
    while(threadIdx.x+j < sHeight){
        for(int i=0;i<sWidth;i++){
            sMem[threadIdx.x*gridDim.x+gridDim.x*j+i] = buf[X + i +  (threadIdx.x + Y)*width + j*width].x;
        }
        j++;
    }
}

For the moment, in the function mediaFilterB, I only copy global memory to shared memory, but it takes a lot of time, i.e., about 5 seconds in a image of 8000*8000 pixels. On the other hand, the sequential algorithm without CUDA takes 23 seconds to calculate the median filter of the image.

I know that I`m doing something wrong in the process to copy global memory to shared memory and that my algorithm is very inefficient, but I don't know how I can correct it.

I'm providing an answer to this question to remove it from the unanswered list.

The classical example on how using shared memory to improve median filtering with CUDA is the code developed by Accelereyes and made available for download from the following post:

Median Filtering: CUDA tips and tricks

The idea is to allocate a (BLOCK_WIDTH+2)x(BLOCK_HEIGHT+2) sized shared memory. At a first step, the outer elements are zeroed. These elements will be filled with global memory values only if they correspond to true image elements, otherwise they will remain zero for padding.

For the sake of convenience, I'm providing below a full working code.

#include <iostream>  
#include <fstream>   

using namespace std;

#define BLOCK_WIDTH 16 
#define BLOCK_HEIGHT 16

/*******************/
/* iDivUp FUNCTION */
/*******************/
int iDivUp(int a, int b){ return ((a % b) != 0) ? (a / b + 1) : (a / b); }

/********************/
/* CUDA ERROR CHECK */
/********************/
#define gpuErrchk(ans) { gpuAssert((ans), __FILE__, __LINE__); }
inline void gpuAssert(cudaError_t code, char *file, int line, bool abort=true)
{
    if (code != cudaSuccess) 
    {
        fprintf(stderr,"GPUassert: %s %s %d\n", cudaGetErrorString(code), file, line);
        if (abort) exit(code);
    }
}
