Description

Description

  • Today Memory provider API section contains only APIs from the memory_provider.h header.
  • But also we should describe the umf_memory_provider_ops_t structure. It contains mandatory and optional interfaces (callbacks to implementation).
  • Each memory provider implementation should describe which interfaces it implements. For example, L0 provider implements IPC but does not implement umf_memory_provider_ext_ops_t.

Research direction

Start with the Memory provider API section linked in the issue and the interfaces declared in memory_provider.h, then inspect umf_memory_provider_ops_t and the provider implementations. Document the mandatory and optional callbacks, and record which interfaces each provider implements, including the L0 provider's IPC support and lack of umf_memory_provider_ext_ops_t.
