This converts a basic list op (torch.prim.ListConstruct) to the IREE
dialect.
```
def forward(self, x: float):
return [x, x]
```
turns into:
```
builtin.func @forward(%arg0: !torch.float) -> !torch.list<!torch.float> {
%0 = torch.prim.ListConstruct %arg0, %arg0 : (!torch.float, !torch.float) -> !torch.list<!torch.float>
return %0 : !torch.list<!torch.float>
}
```
which turns into:
```
builtin.func @forward(%arg0: f64) -> !iree.list<f64> {
%c1 = constant 1 : index
%c0 = constant 0 : index
%c2 = constant 2 : index
%0 = iree.list.create %c2 : !iree.list<f64>
iree.list.set %0[%c0], %arg0 : !iree.list<f64>, f64
iree.list.set %0[%c1], %arg0 : !iree.list<f64>, f64
return %0 : !iree.list<f64>
}
```
As part of doing this, I realized that it was time to formalize the IR
form that we reach right before running TorchTo{Linalg,Std,...}. We now
call it the "Torch backend contract". We then lower the "Torch backend
contract" to the "npcomp backend contract", which involves the new
TorchConversion (`torch_c`) dialect, which holds ops that need to
operate on both the npcomp backend types (e.g. builtin tensors, i1, IREE
list, etc.) and the `!torch` types.
This made more sense, as I realized that if I didn't factor out
`torch_c` then the Torch dialect would have a dependency on IREE
dialect (we previously didn't notice this was an issue because we only
depended on `builtin` types), which seemed wrong to me.
Recommended review order:
- TorchToIREE.cpp / `TorchToIREE/basic.mlir`
- Look at the new structure of createTorchScriptToNpcompBackendPipeline.
It now lives in TorchConversion/Transforms/Passes.cpp and cleanly
calls into `Torch::createTorchScriptToTorchBackendPipeline` for the
frontend lowering to the Torch backend contract.
- Mechanical change extracting
`torch_c.{to,from}_{i1,i64,f64,builtin_tensor,iree_list}` into a new
TorchConversion dialect, and a few passes specific to the lowering
from the Torch backend contract to the npcomp backend contract.
- Minor fixes to TorchToLinalg.cpp to use unconverted operands (now that
we convert lists as part of operand materialization, we need to use
the original operands). Also added test for AtenMaxPool2dOp and fixed
m_TorchConstantIntList.
- TmpDeleteDeadIREELists pass. Temporary pass for deleting dead IREE lists that
are created as part of operand materialization for conv/max pool/avg pool ops
in TorchToLinalg.
We plumb through e2e a fair number of interesting cases:
- unary, binary, ternary elementwise ops
- ops like `torch.aten.add.Tensor` that also take a scalar parameter
- static size-1 broadcasting
We allow the static size-1 broadcasting case, but emit a runtime error
in the case of dynamic size-1 broadcasting. This seems like a sweet spot
subset of things that can be lowered directly to linalg, while not being
overly constraining to users. This is consistent with what IREE is doing
for CHLO->Linalg lowering as well
([code](50bf7a87e4/iree/compiler/InputConversion/MHLO/BroadcastingToLinalgPatterns.cpp (L1))).
To test the static size-1 case, we added support for the
`torch.aten.unsqueeze` op and lowering for it through
`linalg.tensor_expand_shape`. This involved a generalization of
`MaximizeValueSemantics` able to handle it (the solution there also
works for `torch.aten.flatten.using_ints` which we need for ResNet
anyway)
Also, a few minor additional changes:
- Add `VerifyInvariantsBeforeBackendLowering` pass, which catches a
large class of errors before we get to backend lowering (now that we
are doing dialect conversion, the errors are way nicer if we just emit
them up front rather than in the guts of a random pattern).
- Minor change to RefBackend to allow `linalg.tensor_expand_shape`.
Recommended review order:
- e2e tests in elementwise.py
- `ConvertElementwiseOp` in TorchToLinalg.cpp + elementwise.mlir test
- `ConvertAtenUnsqueezeOp` in TorchToLinalg.cpp + unsqueeze.mlir test
- RefineTypes.cpp + tests
- MaximizeValueSemantics changes + test
- VerifyInvariantsBeforeBackendLowering pass + test
