Tried
openmpi/1.8.4_gcc 2) cudatoolkit/7.5.18 3) gcc/4.9.1

The single-GPU configure -mpi -cuda -noX11 gnu
worked fine, but two-GPUs produced the same error.

I tried a MPI only gnu build, which worked fine with 16 or 32 ranks.

I dropped back to cudatoolkit/7.0.28
Same message. I'm out of ideas for now. When I have the output of
> lspci -d "10b5:*" -vvv | grep ACSCtl
I'll send it to you.

I've seen race conditions in a few of the Intel compiler versions but never been able to track it down and concluded it was a compiler bug. Can you check a couple of things please:

>>> The error message doesn't tell a lot here unfortunately. The issue with GPU error messages is that if you have an array in memory that contains a NAN - say the force array got an infinite force - then things will be fine 'until' the code tries to upload or download from the GPU (or do a similar copy operation) - NAN's are not supported in these operations and thus you get the error that you see. The real error - e.g. 2 atoms sitting on top of each other occurred somewhere else entirely within the code. The net result is that just because the error is in the gpu_allreduce does not mean it is related to something wrong with the GPUs, or a driver issue or even a multi-GPU issue.
