/// autograd machinery. Conceptually, `Variable`s travel along `Edge`s between
/// `Node`s in the autograd graph. A `Variable` can either be a leaf, like a
/// weight in a neural network, or an interior variable, when it is the result
/// of an operation between variables. Every `Variable` also stores another
/// `Variable` called its `grad` (gradient). If the variable is a leaf, its
/// gradient will be accumulated into this variable.
///
/// Every Tensor is a Variable, but sometimes we colloquially refer to Variables
/// that don't require gradients as Tensors (since none of the autograd
/// machinery for Variables applies). Historically, Variables and Tensors
/// were separate concepts, but now they are exactly the same (i.e. we have
/// `using Variable = at::Tensor`).
///
/// Gradient Edges
///~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/// Furthermore, `Variable`s have the notion of a `gradient_edge`, which is the
/// edge in the autograd graph that connects the variable to a particular input
/// of the gradient function that will be invoked with the variable during the
/// backward pass. More precisely, this gradient function can be one of two
/// things:
/// 1. A `grad_fn`, if the variable is in the interior of the graph. This is the
/// gradient of the function that produced the variable.
/// 2. A `grad_accumulator`, if the variable is a leaf, which accumulates a
/// scalar gradient value into its `grad` variable.
///
/// Versioning
///~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/// Another major feature of `Variable`s are *versions*. Versions are
/// incremented when an in-place mutation of a variable occurs. Versions are
/// useful when constructing `SavedVariable`s, which take a snapshot of a
/// `Variable` at a certain version. You can retrieve a `Variable`'s version
/// through its `current_version()` method.
///
/// Views
///~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/// It is possible for a `Variable` to be a *view* of another `Variable`, in
/// which case it tracks that `Variable`'s data and autograd history. Beyond
/// construction, the interface of a view is identical to that of a regular
/// `Variable`. You can determine whether `Variable` is in fact a view by
/// probing its `is_view()` method. Note that the *view* semantics are only
/// meaningful for `Variable` relations that are relevant to autograd.
/// See NOTE [ Autograd View Variables ] for more details.

//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
// DifferentiableViewMeta
//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/// NOTE [ Autograd View Variables ]
///
/// Many operations return Variable that shares storage with an input Variable.
/// The returned Variable is called a **view** Variable on the input **base**
/// Variable.
///
/// In PyTorch, we have two types of views: differentiable views, and
/// non-differentiable views. In either type, to support proper version
/// checking, the base and view Variables must always share the same
/// version_counter.
///
///
/// Differentiable Views
/// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/// This class allows to track both forward and backward AD differentiable
/// views. These views can have different base as non-differentiable view for
/// forward and backward mode AD are not the same.
///
/// Most function are either both forward and backward differentiable views (for
/// example: view, select, narrow, transpose, etc) or both not forward and not
/// backward differentiable views (for example: indices, values, eq, lt, etc).
/// But there are also functions that are forward but not backward
/// differentiable views (only detach for now) or functions that are backward
/// but not forward differentiable view (only make_dual and unpack dual for
/// now).
///
/// A concrete example of two views with different bases is as follow:
///
/// # Have:
/// # dual is a dual Tensor that is neither a forward or backward view
/// detached_dual = dual.detach()
/// view = detached_dual.view_as(dual)
/// # The forward base of view is dual
/// # The backward base of view is detached_dual
///
/// - Backward Mode View
/// Differentiable views are the view variables where you want gradients to flow
/// back to the base variables. Out-of-place operations on views are quite
/// straightforward, but in-place ones are very tricky. Even if the base
/// variable may not require grad when we create the view, we still need to
/// track the view relation because future in-place ops may require back-proping
/// through it. For example, we need to support
///
/// (1) in-place operation on view, e.g.,
///
/// # Have:
/// # base.requires_grad = False
/// # var.requires_grad = True
/// base[1] = var # i.e., base[1].copy_(var)
/// torch.autograd.grad(base.sum(), var) <- should return an all ones
/// tensor
///
/// (2) in-place operation on base after view is created, e.g.,
///
/// # Have:
/// # base.requires_grad = False
/// # var.requires_grad = True
/// view = base[1]
/// base.copy_(var)
/// torch.autograd.grad(view.sum(), var) <- should return a tensor with
/// var[1] filled with all ones and
/// zeros everywhere else
///
/// - Forward Mode View
/// Forward differentiable views follow the same semantic as backward ones but
/// show up differently as they are computed along with the forward evaluation.
/// The hard examples above are thus very similar
///
/// (1) in-place operation on view, e.g.,
///
/// # Have:
/// # base is a regular Tensor
/// # var is a dual Tensor whose tangent is all ones
/// base[1] = var # i.e., base[1].copy_(var)
/// # Now, base is a dual Tensor
/// _, fw_grad = fwAD.unpack_dual(base) <- fw_grad should be a tensor with
/// fw_grad[1] filled with all ones
/// and zeros everywhere else
///
/// (2) in-place operation on base after view is created, e.g.,
///
/// # Have:
/// # base is a regular Tensor
/// # var is a dual Tensor whose tangent is all ones
/// view = base[1]
/// base.copy_(var)
/// _, fw_grad = fwAD.unpack_dual(view) <- fw_grad should be an all ones
/// tensor
///
/// See Note [Forward Grad View/inplace] for more details on how we handle these
/// hard cases.
///
///
/// DifferentiableViewMeta is created to support gradient tracking of
/// such **in-place** operations. In particular,
/// + if an in-place op is done on base, the grad_fn field of the view may
/// become stale. So accesses should always go through grad_fn(), which
/// reconstructs an updated grad_fn if the version_counter has incremented.
/// All other fields are always valid.
/// + if an in-place op is done on view, in rebase_history() of view, which is
/// called after every in-place op in VariableType.cpp, the grad_fn of base
/// is updated.
/// + if a single autograd Node returns multiple differentiable views, if any
/// output is modified by an inplace operation, the autograd engine will
/// make an equivalent graph (corresponding to the view operations) without
/// using equivalent graph, where each output is treated as if it were
/// produced by a distinct view operation. This discards the original (e.g.,
/// user provided) grad_fn. If the provided grad_fn does more than the
/// backward of the view, then the DifferentiableViewMeta must be created
/// with creation_meta= CreationMeta::MULTI_OUTPUT_NODE to prevent the
/// engine from ignoring the provided grad_fn.
///
/// Interaction with GradMode:
/// The particular case that we consider here is:
///
/// # Have:
/// # base.requires_grad = True or False
/// with torch.no_grad():
/// view = base[1]
/// base.requires_grad_()
/// view.copy_(var)
/// torch.autograd.grad(base.sum(), var) <- what should it return?
///
/// Given that this particular code example is ambiguous and can easily be
/// replace by either moving both inside the no_grad block or both outside, we
/// explicitly forbid it. For now, it is deprecated by a warning. This is
/// achieved by setting creation_meta=CreationMeta::NO_GRAD_MODE for all
/// differentiable views created in no_grad mode.
///
/// See Note [View + Inplace update for base tensor]
/// and Note [View + Inplace update for view tensor] for the details how
/// autograd handles inplace update with view ops.
///
/// Non-Differentiable Views
/// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/// In certain cases, although function outputs share storage with inputs, they
/// will **never** require gradient history tracking. Instead of registering the
/// view relation via DifferentiableViewMeta in autograd, the views will be
/// using usual AutogradMeta and just share the version counters with the base
/// Variables.
/// Such views include:
/// 1. Views created from .detach()
/// 2. Views that are non-differentiable by its nature.
/// E.g., `sparse_tensor.indices()` is a integral view on a (possibly)
/// floating point tensor.
/// See top of `derivatives.yaml` on how to specify that outputs of a
/// function are non-differentiable.
/// These are called non-differentiable views as the gradients do not flow
/// through the view relation.
///
/// Relevant logic for both differentiable and non-differentiable views is
/// implemented in make_variable_(non_)differentiable_view below, and
/// wrap_output of gen_variable_type.py.
/// NOTE [ View + Inplace detection ]
///
/// We want to detect views followed by inplace as they are often forbidden to
/// ensure correctness of the computed gradients. But since we want to only
/// notify the user when both happen, we tag the DifferentiableViewMeta when the
/// view is created via the `make_variable_*_view()` functions. This tag is then
/// checked by the `check_inplace()` function from `VariableTypeUtils.h` that
/// should be called before every inplace operation and to detect cases where
/// other views are modified and this one is rebased by side effect, we also
/// check in the `VariableHooks::grad_fn()`.
/// Flag that gives more information about when this view was created:
/// - IN_CUSTOM_FUNCTION should be set when the view is created inside a custom
/// autograd Function is returned.
/// - NO_GRAD_MODE should be set when a view in created when GradMode is
/// disabled
/// - MULTI_OUTPUT_NODE should be set when a Node created by codegen code
/// returns
/// multiple differentiable views
/// - Inference_MODE should be set when a view of normal tensor is created in
/// InferenceMode.
