Async/Await on the GPU

Is this Nvidia-only or does it work on other architectures?

Currently NVIDIA-only, we're cooking up some Vulkan stuff in rust-gpu though.

I don't have anything to offer but my encouragement, but there are _dozens_ of ROCm enjoyers out there.

In years prior I wouldn't have even bothered, but it's 2026 and AMD's drivers actually come with a recent version of torch that 'just works' on windows. Anything is possible :)

Thank you! We're small so have to focus. If anyone from AMD wants to reach out, happy to chat.

Does the lack of forward progress guarantees (ITS) on other architectures pose challenges for async/await?
