Key Features and Enhancements
This DALI release includes the following key features and enhancements.
-
The DALI package name now adds -cuda110 and -cuda100 suffixes to indicate the CUDA version and allows the hosting of all packages under one pip index.
This is important only for installation, and the DALI module in Python is still `nvidia.dali` regardless of the CUDA version. Refer to the Installation section in the DALI User Guide for more information.
- New and improved Operators:
-
Improve how iterators count padded samples based on the reader (#1831) - the provided iterators can now query reader for the epoch size and sharding and handle the shard size changing from epoch-to-epoch when it's not evenly divisible by number of shards (rank) and batch size. Refer to Advanced topics for more information.

CUDA 11 build scripts for DALI were added (#2008)
