[SYCL] Implement register_host_memory extension API#22390
Merged
Conversation
Replace the placeholder TBD flag in the host memory registration flags enum with UR_EXP_USM_HOST_ALLOC_REGISTER_FLAG_READ_ONLY and regenerate the API headers. The flag indicates that device access to the registered range is read-only. In the Level Zero v2 adapter, map the flag onto ZE_HOST_MEM_ALLOC_FLAG_MEM_READ_ONLY when calling zeMemAllocHost so the driver registers the external system memory range in read-only device-access mode. Assisted-By: Claude
- Add the sycl::ext::oneapi::experimental::register_host_memory and unregister_host_memory free functions defined by sycl_ext_oneapi_register_host_memory. - Implement read_only property. - Add a unit tests to verify argument forwarding to the UR host memory registration APIs. - Add e2e test that registers a page-aligned host allocation and checks that the pointer can be used in a kernel, that explicit copies to and from it work etc. Assisted-By: Claude

Pull request overview
This PR introduces the experimental sycl_ext_oneapi_register_host_memory extension into the SYCL runtime and headers, adding the public API surface plus device/aspect plumbing and accompanying unit/e2e tests.
Changes:
- Add
sycl::ext::oneapi::experimental::register_host_memory/unregister_host_memoryAPIs andread_onlyproperty lowering to UR registration flags. - Plumb the new device aspect (
ext_oneapi_register_host_memory) through SYCL aspect tables and UR device info querying. - Add unit + end-to-end tests and update ABI symbol dumps / feature-test macro.
