I'm running into a problme with Ocelot, the MonetDB with OpenCL extension.Not sure if this should go to the developers' or users' list. I apologize if this is not the right list to post to.

I'm seeing a query failure which was caused by MoneDB-OpenCL trying to cache an empty BAT and ended up calling clCreateBuffer with a 0 size buffer and failed. Any select with a where clause would trigger it.

Has anyone seen this too? It fails whether I use 32 bit or 64 bit oid, Nvidia or AMD. I'm trying to figure if it's a real issue or if I'm missing anything. Any input greatly appreciated.

The database was generated by TPC-H dbgen (details below). The query I used was "select c_custkey, c_name from customer where c_custkey < 2", and here's a trace of the sequence of calls leading to the failure starting from the MAL statement:

1) X_52 := ocelot.thetasubselect(r1_10,A0,"<",0);(see log below)

2) ocl_select.c::ocl_subselect() line 142: ocl_cacheBAT

3) ocl_memmanager.c::ocl_cacheBAT() line 771: allocateBuffer

4) ocl_memmanager.c::allocateBuffer() line 432: clCreateBuffer

===== Source version and environment =====

1) Ocelot src installed from zip downloaded from monetdb-opencl:

msaecker-monetdb-opencl-b513b35eb84a.zip

2) Ocelot configure options:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-oid32 --enable-optimize --disable-test

ing --disable-developer --disable-debug --disable-assert --enable-sql --enable-m

onetdb5 --with-opencl=/usr

3) Operating System: Fedora 17 kernel 3.9.10-100

4) Hardware: NVIDIA GTX570 on Intel i7-3820 w/ 16GB mem

5) OpenCL: Nvidia OpenCL that came with CUDA 5.5 SDK

6) Database: generated w/ TPC-H dbgen using size factor s=0.01
