[GPU] GOSS boosting error on GPU H100

Description

I have encountered the following error while training binary classification task with lightgbm 4.5.0 on H100 and device="cuda":

Environment info

python3.9
cuda 12.4
scikit-learn==1.6.1

Command(s) you used to install LightGBM

pip install lightgbm --config-settings=cmake.define.USE_CUDA=ON

Thanks for using LightGBM.

Are you able to share a minimal, reproducible example? Or at least, the exact parameters you passed to LightGBM?

The LightGBM functions you use and confirguration you pass to them changes what underlying code is called. Providing details like that reduces the effort required to investigate this.

[SergeevVladislav]

Sorry, but I haven't any code because of NDA
But maybe this code will reproduce this error on H100 with CUDA 12.4:

import lightgbm as lgb
from sklearn.datasets import load_breast_cancer


data = load_breast_cancer()
X, y = data.data, data.target
data = lgb.Dataset(X, label=y)

params = {
    'boosting_type': 'goss',
    'objective': 'binary',
    'device': 'cuda',
}

model = lgb.train(params, data, num_boost_round=100)

But maybe this code will reproduce this error on H100 with CUDA 12.4

Does it for you, on the H100(s) you have access to?

You could help reduce the effort to debug this by coming up with a self-contained minimal example like that, which shouldn't be affected by any NDA if it's using publicly-available data and non-proprietary code like that.

Ok, I'll try it out
Write you soon
