Summary of Changes
This pull request introduces enhancements to the Policy API in the go-dcgm bindings for NVIDIA Data Center GPU Manager (DCGM) library. The primary modifications include the deprecation of the existing Policy API and the introduction of the ListenForPolicyViolations API. The new API enables users to set policies for all GPUs collectively, eliminating the need to configure individual GPUs separately. Additionally, the ListenForPolicyViolations API allows users to register and monitor policy violations across all GPUs concurrently, addressing usability constraints and making the API more efficient.
Context and Rationale
The decision to deprecate the Policy API and introduce ListenForPolicyViolations stems from usability constraints and the recognition that monitoring policy violations for individual GPUs at a time may not be useful in most scenarios. The changes aim to improve the overall usability and efficiency of policy callback registration with the DCGM library.
Deprecation Notice
Developers are advised to migrate from the deprecated Policy API to the new ListenForPolicyViolations API for improved functionality and to ensure compatibility with future releases.
