* Upgrade gtest for clang-tidy.
* Use CMake to install GTest instead of mv.
* Don't enforce clang-tidy to return 0 due to errors in thrust.
* Add a small test for tidy itself.
* Reformat.
* Replaced std::vector with HostDeviceVector in MetaInfo and SparsePage.
- added distributions to HostDeviceVector
- using HostDeviceVector for labels, weights and base margings in MetaInfo
- using HostDeviceVector for offset and data in SparsePage
- other necessary refactoring
* Added const version of HostDeviceVector API calls.
- const versions added to calls that can trigger data transfers, e.g. DevicePointer()
- updated the code that uses HostDeviceVector
- objective functions now accept const HostDeviceVector<bst_float>& for predictions
* Updated src/linear/updater_gpu_coordinate.cu.
* Added read-only state for HostDeviceVector sync.
- this means no copies are performed if both host and devices access
the HostDeviceVector read-only
* Fixed linter and test errors.
- updated the lz4 plugin
- added ConstDeviceSpan to HostDeviceVector
- using device % dh::NVisibleDevices() for the physical device number,
e.g. in calls to cudaSetDevice()
* Fixed explicit template instantiation errors for HostDeviceVector.
- replaced HostDeviceVector<unsigned int> with HostDeviceVector<int>
* Fixed HostDeviceVector tests that require multiple GPUs.
- added a mock set device handler; when set, it is called instead of cudaSetDevice()
* Add basic Span class based on ISO++20.
* Use Span<Entry const> instead of Inst in SparsePage.
* Add DeviceSpan in HostDeviceVector, use it in regression obj.
* Multi-GPU HostDeviceVector.
- HostDeviceVector instances can now span multiple devices, defined by GPUSet struct
- the interface of HostDeviceVector has been modified accordingly
- GPU objective functions are now multi-GPU
- GPU predicting from cache is now multi-GPU
- avoiding omp_set_num_threads() calls
- other minor changes
* Replaced std::vector-based interfaces with HostDeviceVector-based interfaces.
- replacement was performed in the learner, boosters, predictors,
updaters, and objective functions
- only interfaces used in training were replaced;
interfaces like PredictInstance() still use std::vector
- refactoring necessary for replacement of interfaces was also performed,
such as using HostDeviceVector in prediction cache
* HostDeviceVector-based interfaces for custom objective function example plugin.
* Added GPU objective function and no-copy interface.
- xgboost::HostDeviceVector<T> syncs automatically between host and device
- no-copy interfaces have been added
- default implementations just sync the data to host
and call the implementations with std::vector
- GPU objective function, predictor, histogram updater process data
directly on GPU
