The problem is that these operations are implemented using CUBLAS, so are themselves restricted to the types CUBLAS supports (plain, basic C types). Ideally we'd have something more generic. What about #84 (comment), is that not valid or slower?

Such a generic versions could also go into GPUArrays.jl, while a specialized version for CUBLAS-supported types could live in CUDA.jl.

@maleadt When we use the method you mentioned in #84, it throws out a scalar indexing warning, which wouldn't work when
CUDA.allowscalar(false)
is asserted. That is why I have implemented it using CUBLAS based operations.There was a problem hiding this comment.

@maleadt Could you elaborate on the types CUBLAS does not support?

mapreduce
is supported by CUDA.jl, I don't understand how that would trigger scalar indexing?If you look at the CUBLAS docs, you'll see it's a C library that only supports a limited set of element types. That's why we have type unions like CUBLASFloat in CUDA.jl
