guanxinq opened a new pull request #17569: [WIP] Support sparse custom operator
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/17569
 
 
   ## Description ##
   Add support for sparse custom operators. It will support row sparse and CSR 
formats.
   This is a continuation of custom operators project, initial CPU support is 
implemented here: #15921 and GPU support is implemented here: #17270 .
   
   - Added ChunkSparse and ChunkDense structures. The data_ptr of MXTensor 
points to one of the structures. 
   - Added data storage type enum for MXTensor. It supports dense, row sparse 
and CSR formats.
   
   ## Design ##
   
   ## To Do ##
   
   - Pass storage type from c_api to lib_api.h and set in MXTensor.
   
   - Create example operator using sparse support(CSR and row sparse).
   
   ## Checklist ##
   ### Essentials ###

   - [ ] The PR title starts with [MXNET-$JIRA_ID], where $JIRA_ID refers to 
the relevant [JIRA issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/MXNET/issues) 
created (except PRs with tiny changes)
   - [ ] Changes are complete (i.e. I finished coding on this PR)
   - [ ] All changes have test coverage:
   - Unit tests are added for small changes to verify correctness (e.g. adding 
a new operator)
   - Nightly tests are added for complicated/long-running ones (e.g. changing 
distributed kvstore)
   - Build tests will be added for build configuration changes (e.g. adding a 
new build option with NCCL)
   - [ ] Code is well-documented: 
   - For user-facing API changes, API doc string has been updated. 
   - For new C++ functions in header files, their functionalities and arguments 
are documented. 
   - For new examples, README.md is added to explain the what the example does, 
the source of the dataset, expected performance on test set and reference to 
the original paper if applicable
   - Check the API doc at 
https://mxnet-ci-doc.s3-accelerate.dualstack.amazonaws.com/PR-$PR_ID/$BUILD_ID/index.html
   - [ ] To the best of my knowledge, examples are either not affected by this 
change, or have been fixed to be compatible with this change
   
   ### Changes ###
   - [ ] Feature1, tests, (and when applicable, API doc)
   - [ ] Feature2, tests, (and when applicable, API doc)
   
   ## Comments ##
   - If this change is a backward incompatible change, why must this change be 
made.
   - Interesting edge cases to note here
