This page documents the cuda::std memory utilities available in libhipcxx, including addressof, align, assume_aligned, and uninitialized memory algorithms.

Provided functionalities

• cuda::std::addressof. See the C++ documentation of std::addressof.

• cuda::std::align. See the C++ documentation of std::align.

• cuda::std::assume_aligned. See the C++ documentation of std::assume_aligned.

• Uninitialized memory algorithms. See the C++ documentation https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory.

Extensions

• Most features are available from C++11 onwards.

• cuda::std::addressof is constexpr from C++11 on if compiler support is available.

• cuda::std::assume_aligned is constexpr from C++14 on.

Restrictions

• construct_at is only available in C++20 as that is explicitly mentioned in the standard.

• The specialized memory algorithms are not parallel.
