Kernel name prefix

Prepend this name to generated kernels

Since R2020b

Model Configuration Pane: Code Generation / GPU Code

Description

The Kernel name prefix parameter specifies name prefixes for all the kernels in the generated code.

Dependencies

  • This parameter requires a GPU Coder™ license.

  • To enable this parameter, select Generate GPU code on the Code Generation pane.

Settings

'' (default) | argument-list

Specify a custom name prefix for all the kernels in the generated code. For example, using the value 'CUDA_' creates kernels with names CUDA_kernel1, CUDA_kernel2, and so on. If no name is provided, GPU Coder prepends the kernel name with the name of the entry-point function. Kernel names can contain upper-case letters, lowercase letters, digits 0–9, and underscore character _. GPU Coder removes unsupported characters from the kernel names and appends alpha to prefixes that do not begin with an alphabetic letter.
