/** | |
* @brief It's a double-buffer storage wrapper for multi-pass stream | |
* transformations that require more than one storage array for | |
* streaming intermediate results back and forth. | |
* | |
* Many multi-pass computations require a pair of "ping-pong" storage buffers | |
* (e.g., one for reading from and the other for writing to, and then | |
* vice-versa for the subsequent pass). This structure wraps a set of device | |
* buffers. | |
* | |
* Unlike `cub::DoubleBuffer` this class doesn't provide a "selector" member | |
* to track which buffer is "current". The main reason for this class existence | |
* is the performance difference. Since `cub::DoubleBuffer` relies on the | |
* runtime variable to index pointers arrays, they are placed in the local | |
* memory instead of registers. Local memory accesses significantly affect | |
* performance. On the contrary, this class swaps pointer, so all operations | |
* can be performed in registers. | |
