Function Usage

Sets the value of an attribute in the configuration object for loading a model, including the model execution priority, model file directory or memory address, and memory size.

Parameter Description

Parameter

Description

config_handle

Int, pointer address to the configuration object for loading a model. Call acl.mdl.create_config_handle to create the pointer address in advance.

attr

Int, attribute to be set. For details about the value, see aclmdlConfigAttr.

attr_value

Int/Str, attribute value. For details about the value, see aclmdlConfigAttr.

Return Value Description

Return Value

Description

ret

Int, error code: 0 on success; else, failure.

Restrictions

This API needs to work with the following APIs to load models:
  1. Call acl.mdl.create_config_handle to create a configuration object for loading a model.
  2. Call acl.mdl.set_config_opt for multiple times to set the value of each attribute in the configuration object.
  3. Call acl.mdl.load_with_config to specify the configuration information for model loading and load your model.
  4. After the model is successfully loaded, call acl.mdl.destroy_config_handle to destroy the configuration object.

Reference

acl.mdl.set_config_opt and acl.mdl.load_with_config, however, are more complicated. The caller needs to set the attributes in the configuration object passed to the API call to decide how the model will be loaded and who will manage the memory.

By choosing from the following APIs, you can directly determine whether to load a model from a file or from memory and whether the memory is managed by the system or the user.
