> Is there any technical reason blocking us from extending DLDataType to have a `is_scalable` vector field, allowing us to maintain the meaning of the lanes field to represent the number of lanes? DLDataType comes from dlpack not TVM. Changing it may affect the ABI of any function accepting or returning a value of that type, and will affect the memory layout of a DLTensor (and likely more). As a consequence, code build with older TVM will not be compatible with that built with a newer TVM, plus it will have an impact on any other project using dlpack. Changing it is not impossible, but we should be careful about it. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
