_convolution_double_backward() - What does it do?

1

Can someone explain to me what that function _convolution_double_backward() does? And when it is called?
It is located in Convolution.cpp

HI,

As you can see here, it defines the backward of the backward function for convolution.
It is used if you need higher order derivatives through a conv layer.
The autograd could build it automatically from the backward implementation of conv but this custom function is much faster.
