Detailed Documentation

In-place pair definition.

It can queried from a compiled partition indicating that an input and an output of the partition can share the same memory buffer for computation. In-place computation helps to reduce the memory footprint and improves cache locality. But since the library may not have a global view of user’s application, it’s possible that the tensor with input_id is used at other places in user’s computation graph. In this case, the user should take the in-place pair as a hint and pass a different memory buffer for output tensor to avoid overwriting the input memory buffer which will probably cause unexpected incorrect results.

Fields

size_t input_id

The id of input tensor.

size_t output_id

The id of output tensor.
