CUDA Events

[joaoguerreiro]

Is it possible to use the CUDA C component to get the GPU Events, but using the ID code used by CUPTI instead of the codenames used in PAPI? (for example, using 2619 instead of "cuda:::Tesla_K20c:domain_d:inst_executed").

It is not possible to use the CUPTI ID codes to access the events. The usual usage in PAPI is to use event names to refer to events. If there is sufficient interest in this event ID mode, this could probably be incorporated in a future release. Please let us know if there is some reason we are unaware of why this mode would be a good thing to support.
