This question popped up during the call with a workshop team. The table does not list this combination as supported. Is the reason that something does not work, or it's just not tested?
Yes you got that right, everything that is listed is tested in CI, according to the note below the table. One can adopt one of the GCC entries in CI to GCC8, which works with CUDA 10.1 or newer, probably already works.
This is an error in the readme. We already have a test in CI with nvcc-10.1 + gcc-8. The problem in the readme is that we have only one column for gcc 8 and 9 combined and gcc 9 is not yet supported by nvcc.
