<h2>Description</h2>
<p>
Shared Virtual Memory (SVM) (Glossary): An address space exposed to both the host and the devices
within a context. SVM causes addresses to be meaningful between the host and all of the devices
within a context and therefore supports the use of pointer based data structures in OpenCL
kernels. It logically extends a portion of the global memory into the host address space therefore
giving work-items access to the host address space. There are three types of SVM in OpenCL
Coarse-Grained buffer SVM: Sharing occurs at the granularity of regions of OpenCL buffer
memory objects. Fine-Grained buffer SVM: Sharing occurs at the granularity of individual
loads/stores into bytes within OpenCL buffer memory objects. Fine-Grained system SVM:
Sharing occurs at the granularity of individual loads/stores into bytes occurring anywhere within
the host memory.
