"""Context-manager that sets a pair of pack / unpack hooks for saved tensors.
Use this context-manager to define how intermediary results of an operation
should be packed before saving, and unpacked on retrieval.
In that context, the ``pack_hook`` function will be called everytime an
operation saves a tensor for backward (this includes intermediary results
saved using
:func:`~torch.autograd.function._ContextMethodMixin.save_for_backward` but
also those recorded by a PyTorch-defined operation). The output of
``pack_hook`` is then stored in the computation graph instead of the
original tensor.
The ``unpack_hook`` is called when the saved tensor needs to be accessed,
namely when executing :func:`torch.Tensor.backward()` or
:func:`torch.autograd.grad()`. It takes as argument the *packed* object
returned by ``pack_hook`` and should return a tensor which has the same
content as the original tensor (passed as input to the corresponding
``pack_hook``).
The hooks should have the following signatures:
pack_hook(tensor: Tensor) -> Any
unpack_hook(Any) -> Tensor
where the return value of ``pack_hook`` is a valid input to ``unpack_hook``.
In general, you want ``unpack_hook(pack_hook(t))`` to be equal to ``t`` in terms
of value, size, dtype and device.
Example::
>>> # xdoctest: +REQUIRES(env:TORCH_DOCTEST_AUTOGRAD)
