General usage information

cuDNN is a library of primitives supporting deep learning and neural networks using NVIDIA GPUs.

The following environmental variables have been defined:

  • \$CUDNN_ROOT has been set to the root of the cudnn installation
  • \$CUDNN_LIBDIR points to the directory containing the libraries
  • \$CUDNN_INCDIR points to the directory containing the header files

You will probably wish to use these by adding the following flags to your compilation command (e.g. to CFLAGS in your Makefile):

  • -I\$CUDNN_INCDIR
and the following flags to your link command (e.g. LDFLAGS in your Makefile):
  • -L\$CUDNN_LIBDIR -Wl,-rpath,\$CUDNN_LIBDIR
