For custom scalars, zero is not necessarily represented by
a zeroed-out memory block (e.g. gnu MPFR). We therefore
cannot rely on `memset` if we want to fill a matrix or tensor
with zeroes. Instead, we should rely on `fill`, which for trivial
types does end up getting converted to a `memset` under-the-hood
(at least with gcc/clang).
Requires adding a `fill(begin, end, v)` to `TensorDevice`.
Replaced all potentially bad instances of memset with fill.
Fixes#2245.
- Dynamic is now an invalid value
- introduce a HugeCost constant to be used for runtime-cost values or arbitrarily huge cost
- add sanity checks for cost values: must be >=0 and not too large
This change provides several benefits:
- it fixes shortcoming is some cost computation where the Dynamic case was not properly handled.
- it simplifies cost computation logic, and should avoid future similar shortcomings.
- it allows to distinguish between different level of dynamic/huge/infinite cost
- it should enable further simplifications in the computation of costs (save compilation time)
Renamed meta_{true|false} to {true|false}_type, meta_if to conditional, is_same_type to is_same, un{ref|pointer|const} to remove_{reference|pointer|const} and makeconst to add_const.
Changed boolean type 'ret' member to 'value'.
Changed 'ret' members refering to types to 'type'.
Adapted all code occurences.
EIGEN_SIZE_MIN ---> EIGEN_SIZE_MIN_PREFER_DYNAMIC
EIGEN_MAXSIZE_MIN ---> EIGEN_SIZE_MIN_PREFER_FIXED
and make sure to use the latter in products xprs to determine the inner size.
