Equivalent of Tex2D or Tex3D and Texture Memory in Current Numba?

@abnowack

I’ve used C/C++ for 10 years, and I have enough enthusiasm to give it a shot if there’s an existing example of extending numba I could study as a starting point. Otherwise definitely encourage anyone to step up.

Great - a few references for some background:

• https://github.com/gmarkall/extending-numba-cuda/blob/main/Extending%20Numba’s%20CUDA%20Target.ipynb
• The Life of a Numba Kernel: A Compilation Pipeline Taking User Defined Functions in Python to CUDA Kernels | by Graham Markall | RAPIDS AI | Medium
• Contributing to Numba with no compiler or LLVM experience

If you want to take a look at these to get a feel for what’s generally required and see whether it looks like something that would fit your interest, then I can provide a bit more guidance (having to be brief here now as it’s getting a little late) - do let me know what you think!
