Deeploy.DeeployTypes.TransientBuffer

class Deeploy.DeeployTypes.TransientBuffer(name: str = '', size=0)

Bases: VariableBuffer

Class to represent memory space required by kernels that is not covered by input and output tensors, e.g. im2col buffers in convolutions

Methods

__init__(name: str = '', size=0)

`__init__`([name, size])
`add_aliases`(aliases_to_add)	Adds list of aliases to the alias_of attribute.
`alloc`()	Return a string representation of the C code required to allocated this memory buffer
`dealloc`()	Return a string representation of the C code to deallocate/free this memory buffer at runtime
`fromNode`(node)
`fromVariableBuffer`(buffer)
`get_aliases_of`()	Getter function for the alias_of attribute.
`has_live_ancestors`(ctxt)	Checks whether this VariableBuffer has any live ancestors, i.e. buffers that are still live and are aliased by this buffer.
`init`()	Return a string representation of the C code to declare this memory buffer

Attributes

`size`	Total BYTE size of this TransientBuffer
`initTemplate`	Holds the buffer's initialization code
`allocTemplate`	Holds the buffer's allocation code
`deallocTemplate`	Holds the buffer's deallocation code
`name`	Canonical name that this buffer is registered as in the NetworkContext
`shape`	Represents the dimensions of the underlying tensor as a sequence of dimension sizes

name: str

Canonical name that this buffer is registered as in the NetworkContext

Type:: str

size

Total BYTE size of this TransientBuffer

Type:: int

add_aliases(aliases_to_add: List[str])

Adds list of aliases to the alias_of attribute. :param alias_to_add: List of names of aliases to add to the alias_of attribute. :type alias_to_add: List[str]

Return type:: None

alloc() → str

Return a string representation of the C code required to allocated this memory buffer

Returns:: C Code to allocate this buffer
Return type:: str

dealloc() → str

Return a string representation of the C code to deallocate/free this memory buffer at runtime

Returns:: C Code to free this buffer
Return type:: str

get_aliases_of(): Getter function for the alias_of attribute. :returns: List of names o all aliases of this VariableBuffer. :rtype: List[str]

has_live_ancestors(ctxt: NetworkContext) → bool

Checks whether this VariableBuffer has any live ancestors, i.e. buffers that are still live and are aliased by this buffer. :param ctxt: Current NetworkContext :type ctxt: NetworkContext
