Trait Allocation 

pub trait Allocation: Send + Sync {
    // Required methods
    fn kind(&self) -> MemoryKind;
    fn len_bytes(&self) -> usize;
    fn as_ptr(&self) -> NonNull<u8>;
}

A handle to backend-allocated memory. Concrete backends provide a non-trait struct that derefs to a typed slice for the hot path.

Required Methods

fn kind(&self) -> MemoryKind

fn len_bytes(&self) -> usize

fn as_ptr(&self) -> NonNull<u8>

Raw device pointer. Backends that virtualise pointers (Metal, QNN) return their handle cast to *mut u8.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
