Code compatibility features

  1. As with other FFT modules in CuPy, FFT functions in this module can take advantage of an existing cuFFT plan (returned by get_fft_plan()) to accelarate the computation. The plan can be either passed in explicitly via the keyword-only plan argument or used as a context manager.

  2. The boolean switch cupy.fft.config.enable_nd_planning also affects the FFT functions in this module, see Discrete Fourier Transform (cupy.fft). This switch is neglected when planning manually using get_fft_plan().

  3. Like in scipy.fft, all FFT functions in this module have an optional argument overwrite_x (default is False), which has the same semantics as in scipy.fft: when it is set to True, the input array x can (not will) be overwritten arbitrarily. For this reason, when an in-place FFT is desired, the user should always reassign the input in the following manner: x = cupyx.scipy.fftpack.fft(x, ..., overwrite_x=True, ...).

  4. The cupyx.scipy.fft module can also be used as a backend for scipy.fft e.g. by installing with scipy.fft.set_backend(cupyx.scipy.fft). This can allow scipy.fft to work with both numpy and cupy arrays. For more information, see SciPy FFT backend.

  5. The boolean switch cupy.fft.config.use_multi_gpus also affects the FFT functions in this module, see Discrete Fourier Transform (cupy.fft). Moreover, this switch is honored when planning manually using get_fft_plan().
