GPU Checkpointing

This page explains how CRIU handles GPU-accelerated workloads, what vendor components are needed (NVIDIA & AMD), and how to use them for processes and containers.
CRIU checkpoints Linux-kernel resources (e.g., memory, threads, files, sockets). GPU state such as device memory, contexts, and queues that lives outside normal process address space needs special handling, so CRIU relies on vendor-specific plugins.
