Alexander, I discovered the problem,
In my code i use
#pragma acc kernels loop gang(100) vector (256)
but activate GOMP_DEBUG1, the result of my execution is
nvptx_exec: prepare mappings
nvptx_exec: kernel main$_omp_fn$0: launch gangs=1, workers=1, vectors=32
the numbers of gangs is different.
Who i send the correct number of gangs to nvptx_exec
?
