Expanding on the thread block clusters introduced in CUDA 12, version 12.6 offers more granular controls for shared memory allocation across multiple blocks within a processing cluster. : Includes significant updates to Nsight Compute and
The nvdisasm tool now supports JSON-formatted SASS disassembly, making it much easier to pipe disassembly data into custom analysis tools or scripts.

Building on the CUDA Stream Ordered Memory Allocator, 12.6 refines the cudaMemPool API.
Important fixes have been implemented for nvcc when used with MSVC and C++20, particularly regarding template compilation errors.
