Rust bindings for the NVIDIA Management Library (NVML), a C-based programmatic interface for monitoring and managing various states within NVIDIA (primarily Tesla) GPUs.
It is intended to be a platform for building 3rd-party applications, and is also the underlying library for NVIDIA's nvidia-smi tool.
NVML supports the following platforms:
And the following products:
The NVML library comes with the NVIDIA drivers and is essentially present on any system with a functioning NVIDIA graphics card. The compilation steps vary between Windows and Linux, however.
The NVML library dll can be found at %ProgramW6432%\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI\
(which is C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI\ on my machine). You will need
to add this folder to your PATH in order to have everything work properly at
runtime; alternatively, place a copy of the dll in the same folder as your executable.
The NVML library can be found at /usr/lib/nvidia-<driver-version>/libnvidia-ml.so; on my system with driver version 375.51 installed, this puts the library at
/usr/lib/nvidia-375/libnvidia-ml.so. You will need to create a symbolic link:
bash
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-<driver-version>/libnvidia-ml.so /usr/lib
These bindings were generated for NVML version 8. Each new version of NVML is guaranteed to be backwards-compatible according to NVIDIA, so these bindings should be useful regardless of NVML version bumps.
Currently supports Rust 1.19.0 or greater. The target version is the latest stable version; I do not intend to pin to an older one at any time.
