13  This extension adds a pname:priority value specified at memory allocation
14  time.
15  On some systems with both device-local and non-device-local memory heaps,
16  the implementation may transparently move memory from one heap to another
17  when a heap becomes full (for example, when the total memory used across all
18  processes exceeds the size of the heap).
19  In such a case, this priority value may be used to determine which
20  allocations are more likely to remain in device-local memory.
