Support for WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

[jakirkham]

Opening this issue to track WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). Currently this is not supported as NVML is not supported on WSL (based on reading this note from the NVIDIA WSL docs).

3. NVIDIA Management Library (NVML) APIs are not supported. Consequently, nvidia-smi may not be functional in WSL 2.

However when NVML is supported on Windows, it would be nice to try this. Would depend on pynvml working on WSL as well ( gpuopenanalytics/pynvml#26 ).

For more general RAPIDS support of WSL, please see issue ( rapidsai/cudf#28 ).

Any update about this?

Has NVML been added yet? nvidia-smi works for me.

@roshkins I haven't tested it lately. Perhaps you could try running through the usage examples for pynvml and see if they work.
