nvcc allows using std::malloc and std::free in device code.
When std::malloc or std::free is passed as a template
function argument with template argument deduction,
there is no diagnostics. e.g.
__global__ void kern() {
void *p = std::malloc(1);
std::free(p);
}
int main()
{
std::shared_ptr<float> a;
a = std::shared_ptr<float>(
(float*)std::malloc(sizeof(float) * 100),
std::free
);
return 0;
}
However, the same code fails to compile with clang
(https://godbolt.org/z/1roGvo6YY). The reason is
that clang does not have logic to choose a function
argument from an overloaded set of candidates
based on host/device attributes for template argument
deduction.
Currently, clang does have a logic to choose a candidate
based on the constraints of the candidates. This patch
extends that logic to account for the CUDA host/device-based
preference.
