- A new DMatrix type.
- Extract common code into a new QDM base class.
Not yet working:
- Not exposed to the interface yet, will wait for the GPU implementation.
- ~No meta info yet, still working on the source.~
- Exporting data to CSR is not supported yet.
- Support resource view in ellpack.
- Define the CUDA version of MMAP resource.
- Define the CUDA version of malloc resource.
- Refactor cuda runtime API wrappers, and add memory access related wrappers.
- gather windows macros into a single header.
This PR replaces the original RABIT implementation with a new one, which has already been partially merged into XGBoost. The new one features:
- Federated learning for both CPU and GPU.
- NCCL.
- More data types.
- A unified interface for all the underlying implementations.
- Improved timeout handling for both tracker and workers.
- Exhausted tests with metrics (fixed a couple of bugs along the way).
- A reusable tracker for Python and JVM packages.
- Use the array interface internally.
- Deprecate `XGDMatrixSetDenseInfo`.
- Deprecate `XGDMatrixSetUIntInfo`.
- Move the handling of `DataType` into the deprecated C function.

- Use std::uint64_t instead of size_t to avoid implementation-defined type.
- Rename to bst_idx_t, to account for other types of indexing.
- Small cleanup to the base header.
- Implement a columnar adapter.
- Refactor Python pandas handling code to avoid converting into a single numpy array.
- Add support in R for transforming columns.
- Support R data.frame and factor type.
* [coll] Pass context to various functions.
In the future, the `Context` object would be required for collective operations, this PR
passes the context object to some required functions to prepare for swapping out the
implementation.
- Use the `linalg::Matrix` for storing gradients.
- New API for the custom objective.
- Custom objective for multi-class/multi-target is now required to return the correct shape.
- Custom objective for Python can accept arrays with any strides. (row-major, column-major)
- static function in header. (which is marked as unused due to translation unit
visibility).
- Implicit copy operator is deprecated.
- Unused lambda capture.
- Moving a temporary variable prevents copy elision.
- Rewrite GPU demos. notebook is converted to script to avoid committing additional png plots.
- Add GPU demos into the sphinx gallery.
- Add RMM demos into the sphinx gallery.
- Test for firing threads with different device ordinals.
- Save the updater sequence as an array instead of object.
- Warn only once.
The compatibility is kept, but we should be able to break it as the config is not loaded
in pickle model and it's declared to be not stable.
