Struct U8 

#[repr(transparent)]
pub struct U8(pub u8);

Unsigned 8-bit integer element marker. #[repr(transparent)] around u8.

Identical memory layout to u8, so a DeviceBuffer<u8> (byte substrate) can be reinterpreted as a DeviceBuffer<U8> (quantized GEMM operand) via view_as without copying. The wrapper exists to disambiguate “byte buffer” from “quantized operand” at the Rust type level — a DeviceBuffer<U8> is unambiguously a GEMM operand, DeviceBuffer<u8> stays a byte-storage abstraction.

Numerical contract: same as S8 except the multiply operands are unsigned. The accumulator is still int32 and alpha/beta are still float; saturating cast at store clamps to [0, 255].

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for U8

fn clone(&self) -> U8

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Copy for U8

impl Debug for U8

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for U8

fn default() -> U8

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl DeviceRepr for U8

impl Eq for U8

impl Hash for U8

fn hash<__H>(&self, state: &mut __H)

where __H: Hasher,

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl IntElement for U8

impl KernelDtype for U8

const KIND: ElementKind = ElementKind::U8

Runtime tag for this dtype. Stable across the workspace — keyed by this same enum in crate::KernelSku::element.

impl Ord for U8

fn cmp(&self, other: &U8) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl PartialEq for U8

fn eq(&self, other: &U8) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl PartialOrd for U8

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &U8) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.
