CUDA: reinterpret results in dynamic function invocation #1312

@pxl-th

Description

@pxl-th

Ref: JuliaGPU/AMDGPU.jl#808
MWE (fails on Julia 1.10, works on 1.11+):

using CUDA, StaticArrays

@inline function add!(a::MMatrix{NC,NC,Complex{T},NC2}) where {NC,NC2,T}
    ar = reinterpret(reshape, T, a)
    @inbounds ar[1] += 1.0
    return a
end

function kernel!(a)
    i = threadIdx().x
    @inbounds a[i] = SMatrix(add!(MMatrix(a[i])))
    return
end

a = CUDA.zeros(SMatrix{3,3,ComplexF64,9}, 1)
@cuda threads=1 kernel!(a)

Error:

Hint: catch this exception as `err` and call `code_typed(err; interactive = true)` to introspect the erroneous code with Cthulhu.jl
