Tensorflow 2.15 Install is driving me CRAZY!

General Discussion

#1

I’m trying to get tensorflow 2.15 to work with Cuda GPU on wsl 2 ubuntu-22.04. As I import tensorflow into a juypter notebook I get the following error:

2024-02-07 14:39:49.640124: E external/local_xla/xla/stream_executor/cuda/cuda_dnn.cc:9261] Unable to register cuDNN factory: Attempting to register factory for plugin cuDNN when one has already been registered

I installed the cuda-toolkit 12.3 into ubuntu-22.04, then I installed my libraries for python including 'pip install tensorflow[and-cuda] '. I then got the above error and tried to uninstall the cuda-toolkit 12.3 because I read that tensorflow[and-cuda] should install the cuda dependencies for me, but the error still exists. Any help is appreciated!

Hi @Ian_Lawrence, Could you please confirm whether you are using wsl2 in windows or in ubuntu. Thank You.

#4

Wsl2. Funny you should ask… I was going to add wsl2 in, but theres no edit button while the post is pending.

#5

I feel your plain. I have spent all day trying to get TF+GPU working (WSL/Ubuntu on Windows).
It really shouldn’t be this hard.

#7

Did you fix it ? If not i have it running on WSL2 and all is good maybe i can help.

#8

Definitely not fixed. Any ideas?

#9

I have few question before.

You have CUDA CUdnn and Tensorrt installed properly ?

make a new env in conda.
Then install the basic stuff with conda then with PIP:

pip install tensorflow tensorflow-datasets tfx

if cuda is installed Tf should see it
If u did not do it properly you can install

pip install tensorflow[and-cuda]

not install anything else and use a test script

import tensorflow as tf

Check available GPUs

gpus = tf.config.experimental.list_physical_devices(‘GPU’)
print("Num GPUs Available: “, len(gpus))
for gpu in gpus:
print(“Name:”, gpu.name, " Type:”, gpu.device_type)

Test GPU utilization

if gpus:
try:
# Set memory growth to avoid memory allocation errors
for gpu in gpus:
tf.config.experimental.set_memory_growth(gpu, True)

    # Simple computation to test GPU utilization
    with tf.device('/GPU:0'):  # Change this if you have more than one GPU
        a = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]])
        b = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0], [5.0, 6.0]])
        c = tf.matmul(a, b)
        print(c)
except RuntimeError as e:
    print(e)

else:
print(“No GPU available”)

#10

So technically even with those errors, it is finding my gpu and using CUDA cores. However, I’m still reasonably sure it’s not working 100% as it should, hence the errors. It’s also getting this NUMA I printout when I run some other code:

2024-02-09 21:52:43.747526: I external/local_xla/xla/stream_executor/cuda/cuda_executor.cc:887] could not open file to read NUMA node: /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/numa_node
Your kernel may have been built without NUMA support.

You have CUDA CUdnn and Tensorrt installed properly ?
So I don’t have them installed. From what I read tensorRT is an optional library (do you agree?), so I haven’t been trying to use it yet, but I think I probably will in the future. As for CUDA and cuDNN, I’m a little confused on the installation documentation. From what I have read as of tensorflow 2.15 using ‘pip install tensorflow[and-cuda]’ will install the necessary dependencies from CUDA and cuDNN for me, so I don’t think I need to install them separately. Clearly it’s not perfect cuz it gave errors. It installing the dependencies sounds like a new thing, and most of the documentation has the old way of installing CUDA and cuDNN separately/manually. (I might totally be wrong on all of this)

As for conda, I haven’t been using it, not really for any particular reason, but because I didn’t think it was a requirement. Is it a requirement for this to work?

I will try making a new installation on Monday with conda. Then I’ll test the code you gave me.

This is the example I’ve been using and it’s printouts:

import tensorflow as tf

from tensorflow.keras.models import Sequential

from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense

from tensorflow.keras.optimizers import Adam

from tensorflow.keras.utils import to_categorical

from sklearn.datasets import make_classification

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

Generate some random classification data

X, y = make_classification(n_samples=10000, n_features=20, n_classes=2, random_state=42)

Split the data into training and testing sets

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=42)

Convert labels to one-hot encoding

y_train = to_categorical(y_train)

y_test = to_categorical(y_test)

Define a simple Keras model

model = Sequential([

Dense(64, activation=‘relu’, input_shape=(20,)),

Dense(32, activation=‘relu’),

Dense(2, activation=‘softmax’)

])

Compile the model

model.compile(optimizer=Adam(), loss=‘categorical_crossentropy’, metrics=[‘accuracy’])

Check if GPU is available and if it’s using CUDA cores

physical_devices = tf.config.list_physical_devices(‘GPU’)

if len(physical_devices) > 0:

print(“GPU available. Training on GPU.”)

else:

print(“No GPU available. Training on CPU.”)

Train the model

history = model.fit(X_train, y_train, epochs=2, batch_size=64, validation_data=(X_test, y_test))

Evaluate the model

test_loss, test_acc = model.evaluate(X_test, y_test)

print(“Test Accuracy:”, test_acc)

NUMA u not need unless u run on a Linux server where u can change the Kernel So is all good.

If u want very good performances install Cudnn and TensorRT.
Is not hard u just DL both files and then install.

Cudnn and tensorrt need to be installed when u install CUDA on the system not in the ENV.
Is a delicate process u do before everything else.
Then to work use ENVs since u can install as much pip as u want without messing up the system.

To install cudnn and tensorrt remeber to aslo go and update the bash script so ur system will see them i psss u my script so is gonna be easy:

nano ~/.bashrc

you should fix your paths but it will look like this

CUDA and TENSORRT SECTION

export PATH=/usr/local/cuda-12.3/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-12.3/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Tensor RT

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/TensorRT-8.6.1.6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Cudnn

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/min0/anaconda3/envs/AIFlow_Lab/lib/python3.9/site-packages/nvidia/cudnn/lib:$LD_L>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda-12.3/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

NVIDIA Driver and CUDA Version

echo “NVIDIA Driver and CUDA Version:”
nvidia-smi --query-gpu=driver_version --format=csv,noheader,nounits | awk ‘{print “Driver Version:”, $1}’ | he>nvidia-smi | grep “CUDA Version”
# NVIDIA GPU Information
echo “NVIDIA GPU Information:”
nvidia-smi --query-gpu=gpu_name,index,temperature.gpu,utilization.gpu,power.draw --format=csv | awk -F, 'NR==1>

GPU Identifiers for TensorFlow

echo “GPU Identifiers for TensorFlow:”
nvidia-smi --query-gpu=gpu_name,index --format=csv,noheader,nounits

after add do

source ~/.bashrc

to apply. And generlaly also restart the wsl or linux.

After tensorrt is on you will see better performances in training and overall.
Including on a WSL2 i use now it automatically use bot GPU for training since there are 2 4090.

What versions of CUDA, cuDNN, and TensrorRT should I be installing?

Currently I’m trying:

WSL:
WSL version: 2.0.9.0
Kernel version: 5.15.133.1-1
WSLg version: 1.0.59
MSRDC version: 1.2.4677
Direct3D version: 1.611.1-81528511
DXCore version: 10.0.25131.1002-220531-1700.rs-onecore-base2-hyp
Windows version: 10.0.19045.3996

Ubuntu:
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
Release: 22.04
Codename: jammy

CUDA-Toolkit 12.3
cuDNN 9.0.0
TensorRT 8.6

I can’t tell if the version matrix charts are just out of date and everything works or if they actually mean that these versions don’t support each other?

Also I’m supposed to install a gpu driver on windows, not in ubuntu 22.04, right? Does the gpu driver go in windows or in the wsl2 Ubuntu side of things?

When I was trying to install TensorRT I got this: (I think that maybe TensorRT doesn’t support Cuda 12.3?)

So I think I got it working… well sorta mostly.

Used:
CUDA-Toolkit 12.0
cuDNN: 8.9.7.29
tensorRT: 8.6.1

I also make a new conda python instance and installed tensorflow with pip.
I tested this program from @Igor_Lessio:

import tensorflow as tf

#Check available GPUs
gpus = tf.config.experimental.list_physical_devices(‘GPU’)
print('Num GPUs Available: ‘, len(gpus))
for gpu in gpus:
print(‘Name:’, gpu.name, ’ Type:’, gpu.device_type)

#Test GPU utilization
if gpus:
try:
# Set memory growth to avoid memory allocation errors
for gpu in gpus:
tf.config.experimental.set_memory_growth(gpu, True)

        # Simple computation to test GPU utilization
        with tf.device('/GPU:0'):  # Change this if you have more than one GPU
            a = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0, 3.0], [4.0, 5.0, 6.0]])
            b = tf.constant([[1.0, 2.0], [3.0, 4.0], [5.0, 6.0]])
            c = tf.matmul(a, b)
            print(c)
except RuntimeError as e:
    print(e)

else:
print(‘No GPU available’)

So I still have the same errors I started with, but I got tensorRT working, so I guess that’s a plus. Are all of these E and I print outs expected or is something still incorrect?

#15

NUMA error is only about the kernel. Now it work and also better performance with RT.

Enjoy

Need help for understanding messages from importing tensorflow in WSL

Hi Igor,

Thanks for the excellent guidance. I finally understood that I needed to install TensorRT outside the environment. That fixed the “couldn’t find tensorrt” issue. Although my code runs, I’m still faced with “... Unable to register {cuDNN, cuFFT, cuBLAS} factory ...” errors that I’m trying to resolve. At the moment , I’m trying to implement my version of your bashrc file but yours seems incomplete at it appears to have been cut off on some lines (see the ‘>’ characters in your post). Would you mind clarifying the “NVIDIA Driver and CUDA Version” section?

But, I noticed that you’re pointing to the cudnn library in your anaconda path instead of the system path. I don’t use anaconda, but do use a python environment, so I’ll try that. But, shouldn’t python already search those environment paths first, anyway?

Thanks again for your help!

I would like clarification on this as well, but from what I found “Unable to register {cuDNN, cuFFT, cuBLAS} factory: Attempting to register factory for plugin {cuDNN, cuFFT, cuBLAS} when one has already been registered” is a red-herring. My code would still run the GPU with CUDA cores in use and I couldn’t find a solution… so I’m assuming getting them registered properly isn’t necessary. (also it sounds like they are registered, but maybe not the version tensor is looking for, idk. or maybe they are already registered correctly and it’s trying to register them again, but there is a check in the way to stop it… again idk) But I’m not an expert, so if someone has more knowledge on this, please correct me.

I wrote this for myself, so I could remember how to do this all again… maybe it will help:
I don’t think I had to do anything with bashrc or environment variables in the end. I think the installations take care of that for you. (but I’m not an expert)
In order steps of how to set up WSL2: (for GPU usage)
What I used:
WSL:
WSL version: 2.0.9.0
Kernel version: 5.15.133.1-1
WSLg version: 1.0.59
MSRDC version: 1.2.4677
Direct3D version: 1.611.1-81528511
DXCore version: 10.0.25131.1002-220531-1700.rs-onecore-base2-hyp
Windows version: 10.0.19045.3996

    Ubuntu:
    No LSB modules are available.
    Distributor ID: Ubuntu
    Description: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
    Release: 22.04
    Codename: jammy

    Python: 3.11.5
    CUDA-Toolkit: 12.0     Think I could have used 12.2 ... but at this time (2/20/2024) 12.3 wasn't compatible
    cuDNN: 8.9.7.29
    tensorRT: 8.6.1

install GPU Driver on Windows side
install WSL2 (you need WSL2, *NOT* WSL1)
install Ubuntu 22.04
look at tensorRT for which version of CUDA-toolkit and cuDNN you need

in Ubuntu 22.04:
install WSL-Ubuntu version of CUDA-toolkit (this one doesn't include a gpu driver for linux... we already installed the gpu driver on windows... BAD: if you use the non-WSL2 version (aka the Ubuntu only) then it will include a gpu driver for linux which will overwrite the gpu driver on windows which we want to keep... or something like that from what I read)
install cuDNN
install tensorRT
install conda
add these packages to conda (I think this is all, but I'm not sure I remember):
try to upgrade pip:
    python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install tensorflow
pip install borb

Other notes:

  • 1/11/2024 tensorflow needs python <= 3.11 … if using windows powershell do ‘py -3.11 -m pip install packagename’

  • pip install tensorflow[and-cuda] #is supposed to include dependencies for CUDA, however it’s still better to install CUDA, cuDNN, and tensorRT manualy (this is mostly because you need tensorRT, which isn’t included in [and-cuda]), !! CHECK THIS FIRST → !! tensorRT will define compatible versions for CUDA and cuDNN … then use ‘pip install tensorflow’ (without [and-cuda]) (yes you need tensorRT for best GPU optimization)

  • these seem to not matter:

    Also any printout related to NUMA

  • if you want to know what the current installed packages are
    pip list

  • os.environ[‘TF_CPP_MIN_LOG_LEVEL’] = ‘3’ # or any {‘0’, ‘1’, ‘2’} # this removes all logs… probably best to = 0 (or comment out completely) for seting up your environment

#21

Cudnn is system-wise. So like TensorRt you have to install and point out in te Bash.

Now cudnn have also a nice installer so is easy

#23

Anything specific you did in conda for this?

#25

I created a new environment in conda. Then upgrade pip and use pip to install tensorflow. You don’t need borb, thats just something I was using to make pdf files. Did that answer your question?

#27

Yes it did, just wanted to confirm if its standard stuff or some specific steps for adding packages to conda.
I got it working with CUDA 12.1, didn’t go with 12.2 or later because TensorRT’s latest supported version on support matrix is still 12.1 as of 2/29. Also, I was confused if I should do PyPi install for TensorRT or Deb, eventually I did Deb and didn’t need to do any PATHs config.

I think I got similar warnings as what you had listed, and going to ignore them.

python3 -c “import tensorflow as tf; print(tf.config.list_physical_devices(‘GPU’))”

You probably work in WSL that have a kernel wirth no NUMA.
If u run in Linux 22.4 for example you have NUMA activated.
