| === Description |
| |
| This extension adds a pname:priority value specified at memory allocation |
| time. |
| On some systems with both device-local and non-device-local memory heaps, |
| the implementation may transparently move memory from one heap to another |
| when a heap becomes full (for example, when the total memory used across all |
| processes exceeds the size of the heap). |
| In such a case, this priority value may be used to determine which |
| allocations are more likely to remain in device-local memory. |
