Abstract
A GPU resource allocation method and system relate to the field of computer technologies. A global logic controller determines a to-be-distributed kernel program in a kernel status register table; searches an SM status register table for an SM capable of running at least one entire thread block; when the SM capable of running at least one entire block is not found, searches the SM status register table for a first SM, where the first SM is an SM capable of running at least one thread warp; and when the first SM is found, distributes a block from the to-be-distributed kernel program to the first SM; or when the first SM is not found, searches for a second SM and then distributes the block from the to-be-distributed kernel program to the second SM. The GPU resource allocation method and system are applicable to GPU resource allocation.
