- Expose `NumBatches` in `DMatrix`.
- Small cleanup for removing legacy CUDA stream and ~force CUDA context initialization~.
- Purge old external memory data generation code.
- 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.
- Pass context from booster to DMatrix.
- Use context instead of integer for `n_threads`.
- Check the consistency configuration for `max_bin`.
- Test for all combinations of initialization options.
This PR prepares the GHistIndexMatrix to host the column matrix which is used by the hist tree method by accepting sparse_threshold parameter.
Some cleanups are made to ensure the correct batch param is being passed into DMatrix along with some additional tests for correctness of SimpleDMatrix.
- Reduce dependency on dmlc parsers and provide an interface for users to load data by themselves.
- Remove use of threaded iterator and IO queue.
- Remove `page_size`.
- Make sure the number of pages in memory is bounded.
- Make sure the cache can not be violated.
- Provide an interface for internal algorithms to process data asynchronously.
