Description

This rule compares the amount of data read by the kernels to the amount of data written by the host to off-chip global memory. This rule catches values that are deemed to be too small.

Explanation

The amount of data written by the host to device and the data read by the kernel from DDR is less. This creates an undefined behavior.

Resolution

The host is potentially writing too much data to off-chip global memory or the kernels are not functioning correctly. Consider changing the user code.
