Maybe I am wrong but what's the point of using randomtuner when AutoTVM paper says XGBoost is the best? Please ignore this PR if you think otherwise 😃.
@tqchen, what do you think?

I think the reason of using the random tuner as an example is because it doesn't require XGBoost to be installed in the system.

I agree with you that the instructions have to be updated (and you're welcome to contribute a PR for it), but it doesn't matter if install XGboost is easy or hard. It's about whether XGBoost is a required or an optional dependency to TVM. Promoting XGBoost to be one of the required dependencies needs an RFC for discussion.

I think in this case, we can just add more comments to the block. By keeping the RandomTuner, and add comment saying that the developer can also freely choose from other tuners, including XGBoostTuner

Thanks Tianqi for the comment.
@vmiheer would you mind to modify the PR according to the discussion? Thanks.

# Install dependencies
# --------------------
# To use autotvm package in TVM, we need to install some extra dependencies.
# This step is needed if you decide to use xgboost for tuning. This example
# as it is doesn't need xgboost.

This sentense looks a bit weird to me. Are you saying something like "This step can be skipped as it doesn't need XGBoost."?

Yes thank you, I'll use your wording :).

Also please be aware that this file will be processed to generate a tutorial web page, so all comments will be tutorial texts. Although it's annoying, you need to follow the specific comment rules. For example, a paragraph should start with a line with full of "#". You can simply copy line 31 here to make it work.

I was hoping in-code comment would be sufficient, which won't break the section? Let me know if you still want to create explicit break in the code section :).

I checked the current version on the website and I agree with you that in-code comment is better for this case.

This PR cleans up the left over code for legacy verilog support which was experimental.
The new hardware backend path is now support by VTA via TSIM.

* [RUNTIME] Remove Extension VTable in favor of Unified Object system. (apache#4578)

Before the unified object protocol, we support pass
additional extension objects around by declaring a type as an extension type.
The old extension mechanism requires the types to register their
constructor and deleter to a VTable and does not enjoy the benefit of the
self-contained deletion property of the new Object system.

This PR upgrades the extension example to make use of the new object system
and removed the old Extension VTable.

Note that the register_extension funtion in the python side continues to work
when the passed argument does not require explicit container copy/deletion,
which covers the current usecases of the extension mechanism.

* [REFACTOR][RUNTIME] Update NDArray use the Unified Object System (apache#4581)

* [REFACTOR][RUNTIME] Move NDArray to Object System.

Previously NDArray has its own object reference counting mechanism.
This PR migrates NDArray to the unified object protocol.

The calling convention of NDArray remained intact.
That means NDArray still has its own type_code and
its handle is still DLTensor compatible.

In order to do so, this PR added a few minimum runtime type
detection in TVMArgValue and RetValue only when the corresponding
type is a base type(ObjectRef) that could also refer to NDArray.

This means that even if we return a base reference object ObjectRef
which refers to the NDArray. The type_code will still be translated
correctly as kNDArrayContainer.
If we assign a non-base type(say Expr) that we know is not compatible
with NDArray during compile time, no runtime type detection will be performed.

This PR also adopts the object protocol for NDArray sub-classing and
removed the legacy NDArray subclass protocol.
Examples in apps/extension are now updated to reflect that.

Making NDArray as an Object brings all the benefits of the object system.
For example, we can now use the Array container to store NDArrays.
