[BUG]: MemcpyNode.update() rejects stream-captured memcpy nodes

Type of Bug

Runtime Error

Component

cuda.core

Describe the bug

MemcpyNode.update() raises NotImplementedError on every memcpy node produced by stream capture. Buffer.copy_from and Buffer.copy_to lower to cuMemcpyAsync, which the driver records with CU_MEMORYTYPE_UNIFIED on both operands, and _is_supported_memcpy_descriptor in cuda_core/cuda/core/graph/_subclasses.pyx admits only CU_MEMORYTYPE_HOST and CU_MEMORYTYPE_DEVICE. Capturing a GraphBuilder is the primary way to build a graph in cuda.core, so update() is unavailable on most memcpy nodes a user ends up holding.

How to Reproduce

from cuda.core import Device
from cuda.core.graph import MemcpyNode

dev = Device()
dev.set_current()
stream = dev.create_stream()
src = dev.memory_resource.allocate(64, stream=stream)
dst = dev.memory_resource.allocate(64, stream=stream)
stream.sync()

builder = dev.create_graph_builder().begin_building()
dst.copy_from(src, stream=builder)
builder.end_building()

node = next(n for n in builder.graph_definition.nodes() if isinstance(n, MemcpyNode))
node.update(size=32)

Output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 16, in <module>
  File "cuda/core/graph/_subclasses.pyx", line 874, in cuda.core.graph._subclasses.MemcpyNode.update
NotImplementedError: updating multidimensional, pitched, offset, or array-backed memcpy nodes is not supported

Expected behavior

node.update(size=32) should replace the copy size. The descriptor the driver recorded for this node is one-dimensional, unpitched and unoffset, so none of the reasons given in the error apply to it.

Operating System

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS

Inizia con _is_supported_memcpy_descriptor in cuda_core/cuda/core/graph/_subclasses.pyx e riproduci l’esempio di cattura dello stream di GraphBuilder. Traccia come MemcpyNode.update() gestisce i descrittori CU_MEMORYTYPE_UNIFIED. Il lavoro è completato quando la memcpy unidimensionale catturata accetta node.update(size=32) senza sollevare NotImplementedError, con una copertura per questa riproduzione.
