如何在docker环境下通过源代码编译mmcv

如何在docker环境下通过源代码编译mmcv

在docker容器内对mmcv的源代码通过cuda进行编译时报错
OSError: CUDA_HOME environment variable is not set. Please set it to your CUDA install root.

关于这一点，很多人没有说明清楚，这里对这一需求做一个说明：

环境说明

通过docker-compose up 运行，并且使用配置

deploy:
      mode: replicated
      resources:
        reservations:
          devices:
            - driver: nvidia
              capabilities: [ gpu ]
              count: all 
          memory: 8g 

挂载了显卡

在容器中能正常使用显卡

下载mmcv后 ，在mmcv文件路径运行

cd mmcv
MMCV_WITH_OPS=1 pip install -e .

以安装mmcv-full，出现错误

解决办法

参考了别人的很多没用的办法就不说了，这里写一个自己突然想到的一个有效解决办法：

运行时挂载 /usr/local/cuda:/usr/local/cuda:ro

这里的路径根据每个人的机子不同会有差异，通过$(which nvcc) 的返回信息/usr/local/cuda/bin/nvcc 可以找到cuda的路径，把cuda的路径挂载到容器中就行了。

再次运行

export CUDA_HOME='/usr/local/cuda'
cd mmcv
MMCV_WITH_OPS=1 pip install -e .

等了10来分钟，编译完毕。

另外，编译过程是真的慢，而且找了半天的多线程编译都没有效果，pip的多线程编译居然没有人关心…

如果不对mmcv或者mmdet的框架进行修改的话，还是建议到官网使用pip直接安装有预编译的版本，会快很多。
