A question about fusion of TVM and MXNet/mshadow

2018-08-08 Thread Tao Sun

@Sheng - Thanks for the feedback. I agree PR template provides that info. But, one major draw back is ability to filter, group and take actions (review, merge, ping corresponding contributors). And when we have deployed the labelling bot (hopefully soon to happen), we should be able to

It is true that most of the current GPU code depends on mshadow. Porting the operator code entirely over to TVM will take quite a huge effort. So a more gradual path forward is to could be drop-in TVM to support cases that it optimizes well(ARM, AMDGPU, accelerators) while keeping the old
