IPluginV2Extclone () const noexcept override=0
 Clone the plugin object. This copies over internal plugin parameters as well and returns a new plugin object with these parameters. If the source plugin is pre-configured with configurePlugin(), the returned object should also be pre-configured. The returned object should allow attachToContext() with a new execution context. Cloned plugin objects can share the same per-engine immutable resource (e.g. weights) with the source object (e.g. via ref-counting) to avoid duplication.

Detailed Description

Plugin class for user-implemented layers.

Plugins are a mechanism for applications to implement custom layers. This interface provides additional capabilities to the IPluginV2Ext interface by extending different I/O data types and tensor formats.

Member Function Documentation

◆ configurePlugin()

virtual void nvinfer1::IPluginV2IOExt::configurePlugin ( PluginTensorDesc const *  in,
int32_t  nbInput,
PluginTensorDesc const *  out,
int32_t  nbOutput 
)
pure virtualnoexcept

Configure the layer.

This function is called by the builder prior to initialize(). It provides an opportunity for the layer to make algorithm choices on the basis of I/O PluginTensorDesc and the maximum batch size.

Parameters
inThe input tensors attributes that are used for configuration.
nbInputNumber of input tensors.
outThe output tensors attributes that are used for configuration.
nbOutputNumber of output tensors.

◆ getTensorRTVersion()

int32_t nvinfer1::IPluginV2IOExt::getTensorRTVersion ( ) const
inlineoverrideprotectedvirtualnoexcept

Return the API version with which this plugin was built. The upper byte is reserved by TensorRT and is used to differentiate this from IPlguinV2 and IPluginV2Ext.

Do not override this method as it is used by the TensorRT library to maintain backwards-compatibility with plugins.

Reimplemented from nvinfer1::IPluginV2Ext.

◆ supportsFormatCombination()

virtual bool nvinfer1::IPluginV2IOExt::supportsFormatCombination ( int32_t  pos,
PluginTensorDesc const *  inOut,
int32_t  nbInputs,
int32_t  nbOutputs 
) const
pure virtualnoexcept

Return true if plugin supports the format and datatype for the input/output indexed by pos.

For this method inputs are numbered 0..(nbInputs-1) and outputs are numbered nbInputs..(nbInputs+nbOutputs-1). Using this numbering, pos is an index into InOut, where 0 <= pos < nbInputs+nbOutputs-1.

TensorRT invokes this method to ask if the input/output indexed by pos supports the format/datatype specified by inOut[pos].format and inOut[pos].type. The override should return true if that format/datatype at inOut[pos] are supported by the plugin. If support is conditional on other input/output formats/datatypes, the plugin can make its result conditional on the formats/datatypes in inOut[0..pos-1], which will be set to values that the plugin supports. The override should not inspect inOut[pos+1..nbInputs+nbOutputs-1], which will have invalid values. In other words, the decision for pos must be based on inOut[0..pos] only.

Some examples:

  • A definition for a plugin that supports only FP16 NCHW:
      return inOut.format[pos] == TensorFormat::kLINEAR && inOut.type[pos] == DataType::kHALF;
    
  • A definition for a plugin that supports only FP16 NCHW for its two inputs, and FP32 NCHW for its single output:
      return inOut.format[pos] == TensorFormat::kLINEAR &&
             (inOut.type[pos] == pos < 2 ?  DataType::kHALF : DataType::kFLOAT);
    
  • A definition for a "polymorphic" plugin with two inputs and one output that supports any format or type, but the inputs and output must have the same format and type:
      return pos == 0 || (inOut.format[pos] == inOut.format[0] && inOut.type[pos] == inOut.type[0]);
    

Warning: TensorRT will stop asking for formats once it finds kFORMAT_COMBINATION_LIMIT on combinations.
