Sharing strategies

## Sharing strategies
This section provides a brief overview into how different sharing strategies
work. Note that it applies only to CPU tensor - CUDA tensors will always use
the CUDA API, as that's the only way they can be shared.

the file descriptor will be transferred (e.g. via UNIX sockets) to it. The

limits for the number of open file descriptors, and you can't raise them, you
should use the ``file_system`` strategy.

To counter the problem of shared memory file leaks, {mod}`torch.multiprocessing`
will spawn a daemon named `torch_shm_manager` that will isolate itself from

Once all processes connected to it exit, it will wait a moment to ensure there
will be no new connections, and will iterate over all shared memory files
allocated by the group. If it finds that any of them still exist, they will be
deallocated. We've tested this method and it proved to be robust to various
failures. Still, if your system has high enough limits, and ``file_descriptor``

tensors. To perform explicit broadcasting by names, use {meth}`Tensor.align_as`.
- Check names: All names must match positionally from the right. i.e., in

``i`` in ``(-min(tensor.dim(), other.dim()) + 1, -1]``.
`tensor + other`, `match(tensor.names[i], other.names[i])` must be true for all
`i` in `(-min(tensor.dim(), other.dim()) + 1, -1]`.
- Check names: Furthermore, all named dimensions must be aligned from the right.
During matching, if we match a named dimension ``A`` with an unnamed dimension
``None``, then ``A`` must not appear in the tensor with the unnamed dimension.
During matching, if we match a named dimension `A` with an unnamed dimension
`None`, then `A` must not appear in the tensor with the unnamed dimension.
- Propagate names: unify pairs of names from the right from both tensors to
produce output names.
For example,
::
# tensor: Tensor[ N, None]
# other: Tensor[None, C]
>>> tensor = torch.randn(3, 3, names=('N', None))
>>> other = torch.randn(3, 3, names=(None, 'C'))
>>> (tensor + other).names
('N', 'C')
```
# tensor: Tensor[ N, None]
# other: Tensor[None, C]
>>> tensor = torch.randn(3, 3, names=('N', None))
>>> other = torch.randn(3, 3, names=(None, 'C'))
>>> (tensor + other).names
('N', 'C')
```
Check names:
- ``match(tensor.names[-1], other.names[-1])`` is ``True``
- ``match(tensor.names[-2], tensor.names[-2])`` is ``True``
- Because we matched ``None`` in :attr:`tensor` with ``'C'``,
check to make sure ``'C'`` doesn't exist in :attr:`tensor` (it does not).
- Check to make sure ``'N'`` doesn't exists in :attr:`other` (it does not).
- `match(tensor.names[-1], other.names[-1])` is `True`
- `match(tensor.names[-2], tensor.names[-2])` is `True`
- Because we matched `None` in {attr}`tensor` with `'C'`,
check to make sure `'C'` doesn't exist in {attr}`tensor` (it does not).
- Check to make sure `'N'` doesn't exists in {attr}`other` (it does not).
Finally, the output names are computed with
``[unify('N', None), unify(None, 'C')] = ['N', 'C']``
`[unify('N', None), unify(None, 'C')] = ['N', 'C']`

All in-place methods modify inputs to have names equal to the computed names
