I'm no CUDA expert (not yet, anyway), but, from what I've read, the default stream (stream 0) is (mostly) synchronous to host and device, so WaitForGPU() is not needed in that case. I don't know if there is any performance penalty in explicitly calling it in that case, anyway.
In any case, it looks like there are still some cases where potentially asynchronous CUDA library calls are being "timed" without a WaitForGPU() to ensure that the calls actually complete. I will make a pass through the aijcusparse and aijviennacl code looking for these.

It looks cusparsestruct->stream is always created (not NULL). I don't know logic of the "if (!cusparsestruct->stream)".

In MatMultAdd_SeqAIJCUSPARSE, before Junchao's changes, towards the end of the function it had
if (!yy) { /* MatMult */
if (!cusparsestruct->stream) {
ierr = WaitForGPU();CHKERRCUDA(ierr);
}
}
I assume we don't need the logic to do this only in the MatMult() with no add case and should just do this all the time, for the purposes of timing if no other reason. Is there some reason to NOT do this because of worries the about effects that these WaitForGPU() invocations might have on performance?
I notice other problems in aijcusparse.cu<http://aijcusparse.cu>, now that I look closer. In MatMultTransposeAdd_SeqAIJCUSPARSE(), I see that we have GPU timing calls around the cusparse_csr_spmv() (but no WaitForGPU() inside the timed region). I believe this is another area in which we get a meaningless timing. It looks like we need a WaitForGPU() there, and then maybe inside the timed region handling the scatter. (I don't know if this stuff happens asynchronously or not.) But do we potentially want two WaitForGPU() calls in one function, just to help with getting timings? I don't have a good idea of how much overhead this adds.

I made the following changes:
1) In MatMultAdd_SeqAIJCUSPARSE, use this code sequence at the end
ierr = WaitForGPU();CHKERRCUDA(ierr);
ierr = PetscLogGpuTimeEnd();CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = PetscLogGpuFlops(2.0*a->nz);CHKERRQ(ierr);
PetscFunctionReturn(0);
2) In MatMult_MPIAIJCUSPARSE, use the following code sequence. The old code swapped the first two lines. Since with -log_view, MatMultAdd_SeqAIJCUSPARSE is blocking, I changed the order to have better overlap.
ierr = VecScatterBegin(a->Mvctx,xx,a->lvec,INSERT_VALUES,SCATTER_FORWARD);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = (*a->A->ops->mult)(a->A,xx,yy);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = VecScatterEnd(a->Mvctx,xx,a->lvec,INSERT_VALUES,SCATTER_FORWARD);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = (*a->B->ops->multadd)(a->B,a->lvec,yy,yy);CHKERRQ(ierr);
3) Log time directly in the test code so we can also know execution time without -log_view (hence cuda synchronization). I manually calculated the Total Mflop/s for these cases for easy comparison.
