Mojo trait

CopyPolicy

The CopyPolicy trait defines requirements needed for a tensor to be copied.

These requirements check the compatibility of the source and destination tensors.

Implemented traits

AnyType, Copyable, DevicePassable, ImplicitlyCopyable, ImplicitlyDestructible, Movable

comptime members

device_type

comptime device_type

Indicate the type being used on accelerator devices.

Required methods

__init__

__init__(out self: _Self, *, copy: _Self)

Create a new instance of the value by copying an existing one.

Args:

  • copy (_Self): The value to copy.

Returns:

_Self

__init__(out self: _Self, *, deinit take: _Self)

Create a new instance of the value by moving the value of another.

Args:

  • take (_Self): The value to move.

Returns:

_Self

verify_source_tensor

static verify_source_tensor(src: LayoutTensor[src.dtype, src.layout, src.origin, address_space=src.address_space, element_layout=src.element_layout, layout_int_type=src.layout_int_type, linear_idx_type=src.linear_idx_type, masked=src.masked, alignment=src.alignment])

A static function that verifies the source tensor is compatible with the copy operation. If the tensor is not valid compilation will fail.

Args:

  • src (LayoutTensor): The source tensor that will be copied from.

verify_destination_tensor

static verify_destination_tensor(dst: LayoutTensor[dst.dtype, dst.layout, dst.origin, address_space=dst.address_space, element_layout=dst.element_layout, layout_int_type=dst.layout_int_type, linear_idx_type=dst.linear_idx_type, masked=dst.masked, alignment=dst.alignment])

A static function that verifies the destination tensor is compatible with the copy operation. If the tensor is not valid compilation will fail.

Args:

  • dst (LayoutTensor): The destination tensor that will be copied to.

get_type_name

static get_type_name() -> String

Gets the name of the host type (the one implementing this trait). For example, Int would return "Int", DeviceBuffer[DType.float32] would return "DeviceBuffer[DType.float32]". This is used for error messages when passing types to the device. TODO: This method will be retired soon when better kernel call error messages arrive.

Returns:

String: The host type's name.

Provided methods

copy

copy(self: _Self) -> _Self

Explicitly construct a copy of self, a convenience method for Self(copy=self) when the type is inconvenient to write out.

Returns:

_Self: A copy of this value.
