Notice that the bulk of data does not necessarily go through the pipeline (and thus by the cpu). You may only send a "token", than the program downstream uses to connect to and deal with the actual data that never left the gpu.
- bollu 8y agoPretty sure you can't do this since the GPU's memory is per-process isolated as well.
- tntn 8y agoUnless you share it between processes.
- jasonhansel 8y agoWould be nice if Unixes provided better support for pipelines of this sort...
- ken 8y agoThis is similar to the Tcl approach. “Everything is a string”, but the string may be something like “the network socket at address 0x12345678”.
