`cuda.core` 1.2.0 Release Notes#

Fixes and enhancements#

Graph node resources are now retained independently across graph clones, executable graphs, updates, node deletion, and in-flight launches. Previously, modifying a graph definition could release resources still used by an existing executable graph. Releasing graph-attached objects could also call CUDA from a CUDA-invoked callback, where CUDA API calls are prohibited; these objects are now released from a safe context. (#2357, #2371)
Added update() methods to kernel, memcpy, memset, child-graph, event record, event wait, and host-callback graph definition nodes. Updates change parameters used by future graph instantiations without affecting existing executable graphs. This feature requires CUDA driver and cuda.bindings versions 12.2 or newer. (#2352)

Support for using cuda-core with Python 3.10 is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Python 3.10 reaches end of life in October 2026 per the CPython support cycle.
