Title Body

I'm trying to take advantage of the constant memory, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to nest arrays. What I have is an array of data that has counts for internal data but those are different for each entry. So based around the following simplified code I have two problems. First I don't know how to allocate the data pointed to by the members of my data structure. Second, since I can't use cudaGetSymbolAddress for constant memory I'm not sure if I can just pass the global pointer (which you cannot do with plain __device__ memory). struct __align(16)__ data{ int nFiles; int nNames; int* files; int* names; }; __device__ __constant__ data *mydata; __host__ void initMemory(...) { cudaMalloc( (void **) &(mydata), sizeof(data)*dynamicsize ); for(int i=; i lessthan dynamicsize; i++) { cudaMemcpyToSymbol(mydata, &(nFiles[i]), sizeof(int), sizeof(data)*i, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice); //... //Problem 1: Allocate & Set mydata[i].files } } __global__ void myKernel(data *constDataPtr) { //Problem 2: Access constDataPtr[n].files, etc } int main() { //... myKernel grid, threads (mydata); } Thanks for any help offered. :-)
