Background
GraphDefinition.memcpy() currently models only a 1D pointer-to-pointer copy, while CUDA graph memcpy nodes contain full CUDA_MEMCPY3D descriptors with offsets, pitches, height/depth, and array endpoints. Captured or externally created graphs can therefore contain memcpy nodes that cuda.core cannot faithfully inspect or mutate.
This is a follow-up to #2352 and #2395.
Scope
Add end-to-end support for multidimensional and array-backed graph memcpy nodes, including:
- Explicit construction of 2D/3D, pitched, offset, and array-backed copies.
- Node properties that faithfully represent the complete copy descriptor.
- Partial updates that preserve every omitted descriptor field. CUDA 13.2 and newer should preserve the recorded copy context automatically; on CUDA 12.2 through 13.1, the intended context must be current during updates.
- Correct ownership handling for pointer, host-memory, and array endpoints.
- Reconstruction of explicit, captured, and externally created memcpy nodes without flattening them to 1D.
- Public API documentation and release notes.
Acceptance criteria
- Explicitly constructed and captured 2D/3D memcpy nodes round-trip through inspection without losing descriptor fields.
- Pitched, offset, and array-backed copies can be constructed, instantiated, and launched successfully.
- Partial updates change only requested fields and preserve ownership metadata. CUDA 13.2 and newer preserve the recorded context; the current-context requirement for CUDA 12.2 through 13.1 is documented.
- Existing executable graphs retain their old parameters and resources after definition updates.
- Unsupported endpoint or descriptor combinations fail before mutating the graph.
- Tests cover host/device pointers, pitched and offset copies, array endpoints, reconstruction, ownership lifetime, context behavior, and failed-update atomicity.
