No GPU information displayed #5795

my-umd · 2023-03-21T18:27:46Z

I see this under Systems>GPUS from Frigate web UI:
error-gpu
There was an error getting usage stats. This does not mean hardware acceleration is not working. Either your GPU does not support this or Frigate does not have proper access to get statistics. This is expected for the Home Assistant addon.

I am using OpenVINO as the detector (set to AUTO in the config file). Under System > Detectors, I see a CPU percentage listed under 'OV' and an inference speed of ~43 ms. Does this mean it still uses CPU to do the inference? But, from the sample speed under https://deploy-preview-4055--frigate-docs.netlify.app/frigate/hardware. Looks 43 ms is not too bad when checking the data for J4105 CPU. So probably it does use the GPU to do the inferencing.

To get GPU stats you must run frigate in docker as privileged. If it is still not working then it is an issue with something on the host OS. intel_gpu_top is very finicky.

If you included the frigate logs that would be helpful to understand what intel_gpu_top is failing

my-umd · 2023-03-21T18:40:15Z

Thanks @NickM-27. The provided docker run command shows it's running under the privileged mode (sorry, I could have explicitly mentioned the privileged mode to save you time). I can certainly provide logs, but just don't know what part to include. The log is huge.

javydekoning · 2023-03-21T20:11:38Z

When running in a container you need to add the CAP_PERFMON capability for this to work. Your host also needs to be on Kernel 5.8 or above.

Here is a Kubernetes example that works for me:

Looks like the driver does not support GPU stats for your CPU model

Thanks @NickM-27. I can live with it as long as OpenVINO is working for my GPU. But just want to clarify two things before I close this issue:

Kernel 4.16 or newer in my log: what does the kernel refer to? OpenVINO driver?
What kind of Frigate docker is (LXC or LXD)? And what version? I am not familiar with docker business.

Frigate is published as a docker container. LXC / LXD is related to proxmox and depends how it is installed, that's unrelated to frigate AFAIK

Oh, sorry for not being clear. By saying 'working', I meant Frigate is working. Sure, GPU stats is not :)

rjblake · 2024-02-15T15:53:42Z

Running on Kernel 6.5.11-8-pve with Intel i915 GPU in privileged container on Proxmox. intel_gpu_top runs in container without issue, but GPU returns error as above. I've added:

cap_add:
  - PERFMON

to the docker-compose.yml file but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Any thoughts?

I have an i915, not i965. Does same apply? as mentioned, not problem running intel_gpu_top from command line which returns the stats without a problem.

I have an i915, not i965. Does same apply? as mentioned, not problem running intel_gpu_top from command line which returns the stats without a problem.

Just tried some more tests. Seems that intel_gpu_top does not run in the frigate container and this is where the error comes from. Running intel_gpu_top sys:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0 or intel_gpu_top from the host command line works.

NickM-27 · 2024-02-19T14:13:21Z

i915 is the same as iHD

in any case, intel_gpu_top is very finicky and it can work on the host but not work in docker container. For example it does not work on any synology devices.

B0ycee · 2024-04-16T23:21:02Z

I found that in addition to adding the "cap_add: - PERFMON" to docker compose config as discussed in this issue (but with privileged: false), I also needed to set /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid to 3 (was set to 4 by default) on the host Linux OS.

This seems to also be discussed here: #8494 but in that case under HassOS, and needed to be changed from 3 to 2 it seems.

Hope this helps someone.
