GPU memory management

Structs

DedicatedAllocator	Dedicated memory allocator that uses memory object per allocation requested.
DedicatedBlock	Memory block allocated from DedicatedAllocator.
GeneralAllocator	No-fragmentation allocator. Suitable for any type of small allocations. Every freed block can be reused.
GeneralBlock	Memory block allocated from GeneralAllocator.
GeneralConfig	Config for GeneralAllocator.
Heaps	Heaps available on particular physical device.
LinearAllocator	The LinearAllocator is best suited for short-lived allocations. The allocation strategy has minimal overhead and the implementation is fast. But holding a single block will completely stop memory recycling.
LinearBlock	Memory block allocated from LinearAllocator.
LinearConfig	Config for LinearAllocator. Refer to documentation on LinearAllocator to better understand what the configuration options mean.
MappedRange	Represents range of the memory mapped to the host. Provides methods for safer host access to the memory.
Memory	Memory object wrapper. Contains size and properties of the memory.
MemoryBlock	Memory block allocated from Heaps.
MemoryHeapUtilization	Memory utilization of one heap.
MemoryTypeUtilization	Memory utilization of one type.
MemoryUtilization	Memory utilization stats.
TotalMemoryUtilization	Total memory utilization.
Writer	Wrapper structure for a mutable slice with deferred flushing for non-coherent memory.

Enums

HeapsError	Possible errors returned by Heaps.
Kind	Allocator kind.
MemoryUsage	Scenarios of how resources use memory.

Traits

Allocator	Allocator trait implemented for various allocators.
Block	Block that owns a Segment of the Memory. Implementor must ensure that there can't be any other blocks with overlapping range (either through type system or safety notes for unsafe functions). Provides access to safe memory range mapping.

Type Definitions

AtomSize	Type for non-coherent atom sizes.
Size	Type for any memory sizes.
