The Nsight Aftermath SDK generates GPU crash dump files that load into NVIDIA Nsight Graphics to visualize the GPU state—revealing MMU fault information, warp details, problematic shader source, and more. Today’s update to the Nsight Aftermath SDK improves the contextual data provided through low-overhead, application-specific markers.

For example, a shader can use warp shuffle instructions to exchange data between threads in a warp without going through shared memory, which is especially valuable in pixel shaders where there is no shared memory. Or a shader can perform atomic additions on half-precision floating-point numbers in global memory.
