+    Attribute interface describing a target device description specification.
+
+    A target device description specification is a list of device properties (key)
+    and their values for a specific device. The device is identified using "device_id"
+    (as a key and ui32 value) and "device_type" key which must have a string value.
+    Both "device_id" and "device_type" are mandatory keys. As an example, L1 cache
+    size could be a device property, and its value would be a device specific size.
+
+    A target device description specification is attached to a module as a module level
+    attribute.

Why do we need to mandate this? The concept of "module" may be murky, and I could imagine to have some per-function annotation for specialization function on specific devices as well.
