Some of docs referred to old file paths that no longer exists. This
patch updates some of the instructions that I happened to notice were
out of date. This is not a full update
On my local machine, `unzip` didn't exist (producing a "command not
found" error), but CMake ignored the error. Although the build did
succeed (because it found a previously-built version of libtorch), it
seems better to abort builds on such failures, so this patch checks the
return code of all external process invocations.
Along similar lines, this patch also updates the shell scripts in
`build_tools` to extensively use double-quoting to prevent unintentional
word splitting or globbing. Since some of the scripts execute `rm`
while using shell variables, this patch also adds the preamble `set -u`
to abort execution if an undefined variable is referenced, so that we
reduce the chances of executing `rm -rf /` if the path expression
happens to refer to an undefined variable.
This leaves no real code outside torch-mlir.
This also renames the "npcomp backend contract" to "linalg on tensors
backend contract" as the name of the abstraction layer that RefBackend
(IREE too) accepts.
After this change, there are now just two subdirectories in the
`python_packages` directory in our combined build:
- `npcomp_core` with all the npcomp stuff
- `torch_mlir` with all the `torch-mlir` stuff.
The combined `torch_mlir` build will be packaged for use by `pip`.
There isn't anything super useful for wider use in `npcomp_core` so for
now we aren't going to package that one.
It just contained the e2e testing framework. We now fold it into the
main project to reduce complexity.
- `frontends/pytorch/python/` -> `python/torch_support`
- `frontends/pytorch/e2e_testing -> e2e_testing`
- `frontends/pytorch/examples -> examples`
- `frontends/pytorch/test` -> `python/test`
- `torch_mlir_torchscript` python module -> `npcomp_torchscript`
- `torch_mlir_torchscript_e2e_test_configs` python module ->
`npcomp_torchscript_e2e_test_configs`
This also changes the license of a handful of files from the
"pytorch-style" license to the regular LLVM/npcomp license. The only
people who committed to those files were myself and Yi.
This moves the bulk of the Python code (including the Torch interop)
from `frontends/pytorch` into `torch-mlir/TorchPlugin`. This also
required reconciling a bunch of other Python-related stuff, like the
`torch` dialects.
As I did this, it was simpler to just remove all the old numpy/basicpy
stuff because we were going to delete it anyway and it was faster than
debugging an intermediate state that would only last O(days) anyway.
torch-mlir has two top-level python packages (built into the
`python_packages` directory):
- `torch_mlir_dialects`: `torch` dialect Python bindings (does not
depend on PyTorch). This also involves building the aggregate CAPI for
`torch-mlir`.
- `torch_mlir`: bindings to the part of the code that links against
PyTorch (or C++ code that transitively does).
Additionally, there remain two more Python packages in npcomp (but
outside `torch-mlir`):
- `npcomp_torch`: Contains the e2e test framework and testing configs
that plug into RefBackend and IREE.
- `npcomp_core`: Contains the low-level interfaces to RefBackend and
IREE that `npcomp_torch` uses, along with its own
`MLIR_PYTHON_PACKAGE_PREFIX=npcomp.` aggregation of the core MLIR
python bindings. (all other functionality has been stripped out)
After all the basicpy/numpy deletions, the `npcomp` C++ code is now very
tiny. It basically just contains RefBackend and the `TorchConversion`
dialect/passes (e.g. `TorchToLinalg.cpp`).
Correspondingly, there are now 4 main testing targets paralleling the
Python layering (which is reflective of the deeper underlying dependency
structure)
- `check-torch-mlir`: checks the `torch-mlir` pure MLIR C++ code.
- `check-torch-mlir-plugin`: checks the code in `TorchPlugin` (e.g.
TorchScript import)
- `check-frontends-pytorch`: Checks the little code we have in
`frontends/pytorch` -- mainly things related to the e2e framework
itself.
- `check-npcomp`: Checks the pure MLIR C++ code inside npcomp.
There is a target `check-npcomp-all` that runs all of them.
The `torch-mlir/build_standalone.sh` script does a standalone build of
`torch-mlir`.
The e2e tests (`tools/torchscript_e2e_test.sh`) are working too.
The update_torch_ods script now lives in
`torch-mlir/build_tools/update_torch_ods.sh` and expects a standalone
build.
This change also required a fix upstream related to cross-shlib Python
dependencies, so we also update llvm-project to
8dca953dd39c0cd8c80decbeb38753f58a4de580 to get
https://reviews.llvm.org/D109776 (no other fixes were needed for the
integrate, thankfully).
This completes most of the large source code changes. Next will be
bringing the CI/packaging/examples back to life.
