szha commented on issue #13964: Addresses comments in runtime feature discovery API URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/13964#issuecomment-459112043 since the information is fixed after compilation, libinfo sounds more accurate. there's no need to maintain the consistency in naming between module name of python frontend and the file name in the backend. On the API design, yes, I feel strongly about the change, hence the change request. The reason is that the library information doesn't change after it's compiled, and since it's loaded only once, there's no futher need to query the backend, especially given that ctypes isn't exactly fast. Thus, having an API that queries all feature status at the beginning, and make that information available should be the goal. To achieve that goal, a single method with complete information should be the way to go.
