Detailed Description

template<class T>
struct celeritas::PinnedAllocator< T >

Allocate pinned host memory when using a device.

Satisfies the Allocator named requirement.

If Celeritas is built without device support, or if the device is disabled at runtime (including if this is called before the device is initialized!), the allocator will fall back to global

 ::operator new() or \c
::operator delete() 

. Only use this when necessary (i.e. asynchronous H<->D memory transfer is needed) as pinned memory reduces the memory available to the systems.
