Detailed Description

       \brief stream management functions of the low-level CUDA driver API (cuda.h)

       This section describes the stream management functions of the low-level CUDA driver
       application programming interface.

Function Documentation

   CUresult cuStreamAddCallback (CUstream hStream, CUstreamCallback callback, void * userData,
       unsigned int flags)
       Adds a callback to be called on the host after all currently enqueued items in the stream
       have completed. For each cuStreamAddCallback call, the callback will be executed exactly
       once. The callback will block later work in the stream until it is finished.

       The callback may be passed CUDA_SUCCESS or an error code. In the event of a device error,
       all subsequently executed callbacks will receive an appropriate CUresult.

       Callbacks must not make any CUDA API calls. Attempting to use a CUDA API will result in
       CUDA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED. Callbacks must not perform any synchronization that may depend
       on outstanding device work or other callbacks that are not mandated to run earlier.
       Callbacks without a mandated order (in independent streams) execute in undefined order and
       may be serialized.

       This API requires compute capability 1.1 or greater. See cuDeviceGetAttribute or
       cuDeviceGetProperties to query compute capability. Attempting to use this API with earlier
       compute versions will return CUDA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.

       For the purposes of Unified Memory, callback execution makes a number of guarantees:

       • The callback stream is considered idle for the duration of the callback. Thus, for
         example, a callback may always use memory attached to the callback stream.
       • The start of execution of a callback has the same effect as synchronizing an event
         recorded in the same stream immediately prior to the callback. It thus synchronizes
         streams which have been 'joined' prior to the callback.
       • Adding device work to any stream does not have the effect of making the stream active
         until all preceding callbacks have executed. Thus, for example, a callback might use
         global attached memory even if work has been added to another stream, if it has been
         properly ordered with an event.
       • Completion of a callback does not cause a stream to become active except as described
         above. The callback stream will remain idle if no device work follows the callback, and
         will remain idle across consecutive callbacks without device work in between. Thus, for
         example, stream synchronization can be done by signaling from a callback at the end of
         the stream.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Stream to add callback to
           callback - The function to call once preceding stream operations are complete
           userData - User specified data to be passed to the callback function
           flags - Reserved for future use, must be 0
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
       Note:
           This function uses standard  semantics.
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

           cuStreamDestroy, cuMemAllocManaged, cuStreamAttachMemAsync
   CUresult cuStreamAttachMemAsync (CUstream hStream, CUdeviceptr dptr, size_t length, unsigned
       int flags)
       Enqueues an operation in hStream to specify stream association of length bytes of memory
       starting from dptr. This function is a stream-ordered operation, meaning that it is
       dependent on, and will only take effect when, previous work in stream has completed. Any
       previous association is automatically replaced.
       dptr must point to an address within managed memory space declared using the __managed__
       keyword or allocated with cuMemAllocManaged.
       length must be zero, to indicate that the entire allocation's stream association is being
       changed. Currently, it's not possible to change stream association for a portion of an
       allocation.
       The stream association is specified using flags which must be one of CUmemAttach_flags. If
       the CU_MEM_ATTACH_GLOBAL flag is specified, the memory can be accessed by any stream on
       any device. If the CU_MEM_ATTACH_HOST flag is specified, the program makes a guarantee
       that it won't access the memory on the device from any stream. If the CU_MEM_ATTACH_SINGLE
       flag is specified, the program makes a guarantee that it will only access the memory on
       the device from hStream. It is illegal to attach singly to the NULL stream, because the
       NULL stream is a virtual global stream and not a specific stream. An error will be
       returned in this case.
       When memory is associated with a single stream, the Unified Memory system will allow CPU
       access to this memory region so long as all operations in hStream have completed,
       regardless of whether other streams are active. In effect, this constrains exclusive
       ownership of the managed memory region by an active GPU to per-stream activity instead of
       whole-GPU activity.
       Accessing memory on the device from streams that are not associated with it will produce
       undefined results. No error checking is performed by the Unified Memory system to ensure
       that kernels launched into other streams do not access this region.
       It is a program's responsibility to order calls to cuStreamAttachMemAsync via events,
       synchronization or other means to ensure legal access to memory at all times. Data
       visibility and coherency will be changed appropriately for all kernels which follow a
       stream-association change.
       If hStream is destroyed while data is associated with it, the association is removed and
       the association reverts to the default visibility of the allocation as specified at
       cuMemAllocManaged. For __managed__ variables, the default association is always
       CU_MEM_ATTACH_GLOBAL. Note that destroying a stream is an asynchronous operation, and as a
       result, the change to default association won't happen until all work in the stream has
       completed.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Stream in which to enqueue the attach operation
           dptr - Pointer to memory (must be a pointer to managed memory)
           length - Length of memory (must be zero)
           flags - Must be one of CUmemAttach_flags
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED
       Note:
           This function uses standard  semantics.
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

           cuStreamDestroy, cuMemAllocManaged
   CUresult cuStreamCreate (CUstream * phStream, unsigned int Flags)
       Creates a stream and returns a handle in phStream. The Flags argument determines behaviors
       of the stream. Valid values for Flags are:
       • CU_STREAM_DEFAULT: Default stream creation flag.
       • CU_STREAM_NON_BLOCKING: Specifies that work running in the created stream may run
         concurrently with work in stream 0 (the NULL stream), and that the created stream should
         perform no implicit synchronization with stream 0.
       Parameters:
           phStream - Returned newly created stream
           Flags - Parameters for stream creation
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY
       Note:
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

           cuStreamWaitEvent, cuStreamQuery, cuStreamSynchronize, cuStreamAddCallback
   CUresult cuStreamCreateWithPriority (CUstream * phStream, unsigned int flags, int priority)
       Creates a stream with the specified priority and returns a handle in phStream. This API
       alters the scheduler priority of work in the stream. Work in a higher priority stream may
       preempt work already executing in a low priority stream.
       priority follows a convention where lower numbers represent higher priorities. '0'
       represents default priority. The range of meaningful numerical priorities can be queried
       using cuCtxGetStreamPriorityRange. If the specified priority is outside the numerical
       range returned by cuCtxGetStreamPriorityRange, it will automatically be clamped to the
       lowest or the highest number in the range.
       Parameters:
           phStream - Returned newly created stream
           flags - Flags for stream creation. See cuStreamCreate for a list of valid flags
           priority - Stream priority. Lower numbers represent higher priorities. See
           cuCtxGetStreamPriorityRange for more information about meaningful stream priorities
           that can be passed.
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY
       Note:
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.
           Stream priorities are supported only on Quadro and Tesla GPUs with compute capability
           3.5 or higher.
           In the current implementation, only compute kernels launched in priority streams are
           affected by the stream's priority. Stream priorities have no effect on host-to-device
           and device-to-host memory operations.

           cuStreamAddCallback
   CUresult cuStreamDestroy (CUstream hStream)
       Destroys the stream specified by hStream.
       In case the device is still doing work in the stream hStream when cuStreamDestroy() is
       called, the function will return immediately and the resources associated with hStream
       will be released automatically once the device has completed all work in hStream.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Stream to destroy
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE
       Note:
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

   CUresult cuStreamGetFlags (CUstream hStream, unsigned int * flags)
       Query the flags of a stream created using cuStreamCreate or cuStreamCreateWithPriority and
       return the flags in flags.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Handle to the stream to be queried
           flags - Pointer to an unsigned integer in which the stream's flags are returned The
           value returned in flags is a logical 'OR' of all flags that were used while creating
           this stream. See cuStreamCreate for the list of valid flags
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE,
           CUDA_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY
       Note:
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.
       See also:
           cuStreamDestroy, cuStreamCreate, cuStreamGetPriority
   CUresult cuStreamGetPriority (CUstream hStream, int * priority)
       Query the priority of a stream created using cuStreamCreate or cuStreamCreateWithPriority
       and return the priority in priority. Note that if the stream was created with a priority
       outside the numerical range returned by cuCtxGetStreamPriorityRange, this function returns
       the clamped priority. See cuStreamCreateWithPriority for details about priority clamping.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Handle to the stream to be queried
           priority - Pointer to a signed integer in which the stream's priority is returned
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE,
           CUDA_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY
       Note:
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

           cuStreamDestroy, cuStreamCreate, cuStreamCreateWithPriority,
           cuCtxGetStreamPriorityRange, cuStreamGetFlags
   CUresult cuStreamQuery (CUstream hStream)
       Returns CUDA_SUCCESS if all operations in the stream specified by hStream have completed,
       or CUDA_ERROR_NOT_READY if not.
       For the purposes of Unified Memory, a return value of CUDA_SUCCESS is equivalent to having
       called cuStreamSynchronize().
       Parameters:
           hStream - Stream to query status of
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_READY
       Note:
           This function uses standard  semantics.
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

           cuStreamCreate, cuStreamWaitEvent, cuStreamDestroy, cuStreamSynchronize,
           cuStreamAddCallback
   CUresult cuStreamSynchronize (CUstream hStream)
       Waits until the device has completed all operations in the stream specified by hStream. If
       the context was created with the CU_CTX_SCHED_BLOCKING_SYNC flag, the CPU thread will
       block until the stream is finished with all of its tasks.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Stream to wait for
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE
       Note:
           This function uses standard  semantics.
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.

           cuStreamCreate, cuStreamDestroy, cuStreamWaitEvent, cuStreamQuery, cuStreamAddCallback
   CUresult cuStreamWaitEvent (CUstream hStream, CUevent hEvent, unsigned int Flags)
       Makes all future work submitted to hStream wait until hEvent reports completion before
       beginning execution. This synchronization will be performed efficiently on the device. The
       event hEvent may be from a different context than hStream, in which case this function
       will perform cross-device synchronization.
       The stream hStream will wait only for the completion of the most recent host call to
       cuEventRecord() on hEvent. Once this call has returned, any functions (including
       cuEventRecord() and cuEventDestroy()) may be called on hEvent again, and subsequent calls
       will not have any effect on hStream.
       If cuEventRecord() has not been called on hEvent, this call acts as if the record has
       already completed, and so is a functional no-op.
       Parameters:
           hStream - Stream to wait
           hEvent - Event to wait on (may not be NULL)
           Flags - Parameters for the operation (must be 0)
       Returns:
           CUDA_SUCCESS, CUDA_ERROR_DEINITIALIZED, CUDA_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED,
           CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_CONTEXT, CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE,
       Note:
           This function uses standard  semantics.
           Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous
           launches.
