* Adds f32 scalar argument support across the ABI boundary.
* Adds support for passing input type / shape information
across the ABI boundary
* Adds support for parsing / creating input FloatAttr's in
`npcomp-run-mlir`
We already had the `promoteTrailingOutTensor` flag, but weren't using
it. A inplaceVariantKernelName flag needed to be added.
This change is a little dissatisfying, as the conversions done by the
RecognizeKernelsPass are currently non-orthogonal. In particular,
`kDropResultAndAliasArg0` probably won't work as intended if mixed with
these (we probably need to promote kDropResultAndAliasArg0 to not be an
arg-level thing anyway, as we have done with promoteTrailingOutTensor).
This involved adding a new op `numpy.overwrite_array`.
```
numpy.overwrite_array %arg2 overwrites %arg0 : tensor<2x3xf32>, !numpy.ndarray<[2,3]:f32>
```
This models the destructive update behavior. Note that in the above op,
we cannot simply RAUW %arg0 with a suitably conveted %arg2 (for example,
%arg0 might have uses that are not dominated by %arg2, or might have an
alias relation with some other array in the program). In general, we
need a pass analogous to "SSA-formation" which knows how to see through
these to uncover an underlying tensor program.
Also, add tanh_out_e2e.py/div_inplace_e2e.py and fix some bitrot in
refjit.py which is my running example I'm trying to get working.
This happens in practice with e.g. ResNet from torchvision (multiple
instances of the same BatchNorm class).
The key observation is that for this program, and the expected set of
programs, we can convert the program to the same globalized form with a
bit more static analysis and effort to suitably monomorphize the
program. Though what we are doing here is fairly annoying to implement,
it saves any nontrivial later pass from having to do similar analyses
(or worse). E.g. shape inference would need to be object-graph aware,
mutation/lifetime analyses would have to be aware, etc. Additionally, it
would make us front-load what it means to have a !torch.nn.Module type
on an ABI boundary, which we are just not ready to handle.
I'm really, really hoping that in practice we can get away with
this, otherwise it's going to be really rough designing a representation
(and implementing everything to back it) that is convenient to transform
and gracefully scales from full object graph (in the most dynamic case)
down to a fixed set of global slots like we have here (in the most
static case, which we presume a lot of practical programs fall into).
This also involved introducing a
`torch-prepare-for-globalize-object-graph` pass that does a minimal set of
lowerings to simplify the IR into a more orthogonal and analyzable form,
and a `torch-globalize-pipeline` helper.
Recommended review order:
- updated documentation in Passes.td
- new tests in `globalize-object-graph-multiple-instances*.mlir`
- implementation of GlobalizeObjectGraph.cpp
- PrepareForGlobalizeObjectGraph.cpp + prepare-for-globalize-object-graph.mlir
- misc stuff like torch-globalize-pipeline pipeline definition.
With this, we can import, globalize, and inline resnet18 from
torchvision:

In terms of IR structure, TorchScript allows types to vary in many
circumstances where MLIR requires pointer-identical types. In particular,
it is valid to pass any subtype in place of a type. For example, if an
`Optional[int]` is required somewhere in the IR, it is legal to pass a
value of just `int` (but not the other way around; see
`torch.prim.unchecked_cast`). In effect, every *use* can have a different
type.
We introduce a new op `torch.derefine` that models that impedance
mismatch. This op allows casting a value from one type to a type that it
is a subtype of to model this behavior.
Recommended review order:
- TorchOps.td for new torch.derefine (and updated docs for
`torch.prim.unchecked_cast`)
- new test code in if.py, loop.py, function-derefine.py
- new code in node_importer.cpp for handling derefinement insertion
- function_importer.cpp and utils changes in torch_to_mlir_utils.cpp
Properly handling derefinement on function boundaries required
relayering the code so that graph_importer.cpp/.h is now
function_importer.cpp/.h because only the `torch::jit::Function`
(actually the `c10::FunctionSchema` it holds) knows the derefined types that are
actually needed at the boundary (see `function-derefine.py` for a test).
Annoyingly, this churns all the functions which are now prefixed with
`__torch__.` but that is more correct anyway (that is their linkage name
in the `torch::jit::CompilationUnit`; the previous `mb.import_function`
was actually buggy in the case of functions calling each other as it
would reference their unqualified name).
With this change, we can import `resnet18` from `torchvision` :)
IR: https://gist.github.com/silvasean/6426a5272d8a6c7caae533fce05ab704
This primarily unlocks proper handling of free functions (that is,
functions that are not methods of any torch.nn.Module).
Recommended review order:
- `ivalue_importer.cpp` + `ivalue_import/functions*.py`
- `GlobalizeObjectGraph.cpp` + test case
- misc other stuff
The `torch::jit::CompilationUnit` is basically a backing store or
"context" holding all the possible functions in the program. The
previous code was not explicitly accessing this data structure, since it
just imported the `torch::jit::Function`'s that it saw attached to
methods.
Subtly, any time a TorchScript module called into a free function, the
free function gets incorporated into the torch::jit::CompilationUnit,
but doesn't show up anywhere when dumping the module, except in the
curious pattern:
```
%5 : Function = prim::Constant[name="adaptive_avg_pool2d"]()
%6 : Tensor = prim::CallFunction(%5, %input.1, %4)
```
That is, calls are indirect calls, and are accessed via `prim::Constant`
materializing a function object. Even stranger, the `name` attribute here
doesn't really even tell the full story -- it doesn't correspond to
anything. It turns out that the c10::FunctionType itself actually holds
a pointer to the `torch::jit::Function` in the compilation unit
directly (so there is actually no indirection in prim::CallMethod,
because any two values of the same FunctionType call the same
function!). E.g. when converting the IR to bytecode, the "name" is
ignored [code link](1d6bd15790/torch/csrc/jit/runtime/interpreter.cpp (L937)).
We do import `prim::CallFunction` as a `std.call_indirect` though
because it's more braindead to do it that way (it gets canonicalized to
a direct call easily).
This is a much simpler representation than the ad-hoc initializer
function we had before. It is also less general, but given the rationale
in Passes.td it seems like the right tradeoff right now.
We can probably carry this representation for quite a while, and when we
can't, it likely means that TorchScript has fixed their object identity
bug and we probably need to just upgrade to a more general object graph
modeling (more general than GlobalizeObjectGraph).
In particular, we don't want to deal with defining and carrying around
this initializer function concept until we need it. For example, if we
want to constant-fold the global slots into uses, this is a much better
representation, and it plays better with symbol-dce (the initializer
function counts as a "use" of the symbol).
(the alternative would have been to write a pass that converts the
initializer function to this form when possible, but I realized that
lots of information had been lost which made that fairly annoying -- it
was all self-inflicted anyway, so best to just go to the source
(GlobalizeObjectGraph) before the information is lost)
Now symbol-dce works nicely (no more "training" bools)
```
pt_util ~/tmp/classifier.pt --import --exported-name forward \
| npcomp-opt -torch-globalize-object-graph -inline -symbol-dce
```
IR: https://gist.github.com/silvasean/8abe63d70d24e29d6db9170ccc8d512b
The first use case is to annotate certain program constructs as either
exported or private. In this commit we plumb it down to
GlobalizeObjectGraph which makes use of this information.
Recommended review order:
1. class_annotator.h/.cpp + `test/module_import/annotations/*`
- New abstractions to communicate with Python code and annotate.
2. IR changes in TorchOps.td
- Adding "private" attribute to various things.
3. ivalue_import.cpp changes
- Module + ClassAnnotator = annotated IR
4. GlobalizeObjectGraph.cpp + tests
- use new "private" attributes to create "private" IR.
- also, tweak some of the op deleting mechanics, which was triggering
some memory errors / assertions
With this, we can run the classifier through and inline it as follows:
```
frontends/pytorch/utils/pt_util.py --import --exported-name forward ~/tmp/classifier.pt \
| npcomp-opt -torch-globalize-object-graph -inline
```
IR: https://gist.github.com/silvasean/32dcad9f6270557f412094a77cecdd69
With this + manually setting private visibility on everything, a simple
classifier can be reduced to this IR, which is looking pretty lean and
mean:
https://gist.github.com/silvasean/19e7e2e21a61ff197aeac0dd864d188f
Also, include a utility script for importing `.pt` models.
```
pt_util.py --import classifier.pt | npcomp-opt -torch-globalize-object-graph
```
This required restructuring of how we model TorchScript on import. The
main difference is that now we split out a `torch.class_type` that holds
methods and declarations of the types of each slot. This is more
consistent with TorchScript (our previous representation was
"denormalized").
Recommended reading order:
1. check out the description of `torch.class_type` in `TorchOps.td` and
look at `test/Dialect/Torch/ops.mlir` and
`frontends/pytorch/test/module_import/` to familiarize with the new
representation.
- Just look at the new IR. The diff between the old names and new
names is confusing.
2. check out `test/Dialect/Torch/globalize-object-graph*.mlir`
and read along with the pass description in
`include/npcomp/Dialect/Torch/Transforms/Passes.td`
3. Read the code in `GlobalizeObjectGraph.cpp` and miscellaneous changes
in `ivalue_importer.cpp`, `TorchOps.cpp`, etc.
It turns out that this was easiest to structure as a general IValue
importer, since torch module are just one of the possible IValue's.
We import the IValue object graph in a braindead fashion into basicpy
ops and a new `torch.nn_module` op that is used to model the
attributes/methods of a torch::jit::Module IValue. See `Torch/ops.mlir`
for an example, and also check out the .py import tests in
`frontends/pytorch/test/module_import`.
As part of this change, a few housekeeping tasks:
- extract some helpers from graph_importer.cpp
- more helpers around the C API
- misc touchups
Changes:
- linalg init tensor change (outs+init -> just outs)
- IntegerType::get and other builtin types now take the context as the
first arg
- LLVMType::* is gone. Now LLVM Types are just regular Type's.
Best as I can tell (e.g. from LeakSanitizer), this fixes all the leaks
except for those due to buffers created internally to the codegenned
code itself (up next I'll add the buffer deallocation pass to fix
those).
The main change is that instead of attempting to pass `refbackrt::Tensor`
to the codegenned function directly, we make all the ABI types be
UnrankedMemRef which gets passed awkwardly (but workably) as a
`{size_t rank, void *ptrToDescriptor}` on the ABI. The reason why
refbackrt::Tensor wasn't workable is that is that MLIR doesn't really
have a way to deal with the lifetime of unranked memref descriptors that
happen inside the function, which is inevitably what would happen in the
old code that would emit runtime calls to
`refbackrt.to_memref/refbackrt.from_memref` to convert back and forth to
`refbackrt::Tensor` inside the codegenned code.
So, instead of the `refbackrt.to_memref/refbackrt.from_memref` with no
real sound basis for valid lifetime management, we now have a lovely
piece of code in `refbackrt::invoke` in `Runtime.cpp` that just barely
seems to be sound. We rely on the codegenned code having these
properties, which it seems to have:
- it won't free memref descriptors or their backing buffer for arguments
of UnrankedMemRef type.
- it will allocate a separate memref descriptor for each result
UnrankedMemRef (which is ensured by having a separate memref_cast for
each)
- we can sniff the `allocatedPtr`'s (i.e. the backing buffer pointers)
to avoid double-freeing in the case of aliasing of the backing buffer
(including backing buffers for arguments feeding into results)
- to catch the case of statically allocated data (which we need to avoid
passing to `free`) , check if the `allocatedPtr` is (no joke) equal to
`0xDEADBEEF`, because there is otherwise no way to distinguish
statically allocated from malloc'ed data... (std.global_memref lowering
to LLVM by happenstance sets the allocatedPtr equal to `0xDEADBEEF`,
presumably mainly as a debugging thing)
Even with all this, we *still* need to (internally to refbackrt::invoke)
make copies of all inputs/outputs! And the details of how the LLVM-level
ABI gets laid out for e.g. function arguments/returns is still super
tricky.
This really highlights how deficient memref is as the general runtime
type for our use case. It's stewing in my mind how best to improve the
situation. My general gut feeling is that IREE's abstractions for this
are "right", but I need to think more how to distill those aspects of
IREE's design in a "reference" way for RefBackend.
Some implementation notes:
- In terms of how this is implemented, this did catch a bug in our ABI
wrapper functions in LowerToLLVM.cpp, which I had to fix (it happened to
work before through some combination of npcomprt::Tensor being passed as
a single pointer + probably me infinite-monkey-ing it until it worked)
- This actually removes 2 out of the 3 compiler runtime functions (the
only one left is "abort_if". (most of the memref descriptor code moved
from CopmilerRuntime.cpp to Runtime.cpp)
- this also means deleting `refbackrt.from_memref` and
`refbackrt.to_memref`
* Going through TODOs on the PyTorch side, this is a big cause of them (not being able to have constants for signed/unsigned).
* Added complex while in here since we're at the phase where it is better to just have things complete than partially done.
* Organizes the BasicPyOps.td file by function.
* Renamed `to_boolean` -> `as_predicate_value` (trying to consistently use "predicate" to refer to i1/low-level types and Bool/Boolean to refer to Python bool types).
* Incorporates source fixes.
* Uses upstream pybind11 detection logic.
* Patches CI.
* This may break the CI, which will need to be fixed manually in a followup.
Note that unlike aten.matmul which has dynamic behavior
depending on the argument ranks (can do matrix-matrix, matrix-vector,
batch matmul, etc.), aten.mm is just a vanilla matrix
multiply, which can be lowered precisely to tcf.matmul.
The "test" is really just an example that I stared at while getting my
feet wet with this. We probably want something that actually tests this
as part of `ninja check-npcomp`.
It was annoying that we were creating shape.get_extent in the middle of
the bufferization pipeline, as it required running convert-shape-to-std
at an awkward place. To make that cleaner, just open-code the
extract_element ops that shape.get_extent expands into.
This is a little gross, but it helps with the macroscopic pipeline
ordering issues. Anyway, the train is long-gone of trying to treat
shapes as some special data type that should only be operated on with
shape ops.
Also,
- reorder tensor constant bufferize (which is a module pass) to bracket
all the bufferization function passes, to make the parallelism
opportunities there clearer. Now we have a very clean little
bufferization segment of our pipeline construction.
This vastly simplifies our code, allowing deleting multiple ops,
simplifying multiple passes, and removing a whole pass.
Now `refback` dialect is down to one op (refback.alloc_memref, which
simplifies allocations to just take a shape instead of individual
extents).
This involved adding a `tcp.splatted` op to splat a dynamically sized
init tensor. See rationale in TCPOps.td docs.
One interesting observation is that when lowering tcf.matmul to
linalg.matmul, we need to both 1) create the error checks and 2)
calculate a shape transfer function to create the init tensors.
Previously, 2) was deferred to bufferizing tcp.matmul later. I'm not
sure if this is a conflation of concerns or not. For now, it's not a big
burden.
* convolution, convolution_backward, _log_softmax, _log_softmax_backward_data, nll_loss_forward, nll_loss_backward, nll_loss2d_forward, nll_loss2d_backward, copy_
* Extends the recognition logic and metadata for handling inplace transformations, optional tensors, ints, lists and dropped args.
* The kernel_calls generated by test_conv_nllloss_grads.py now convert to ATen.
* The result *almost* comes out as a pure tensor program with the exception of the copy_ op, which I will do some followup work to deal with.
* More progress on #97
* Deletes prior code generator from previous attempt (moved some of it into this one).
* Renames old generated tablegen source to "Legacy".
* Generates ODS and import rules for most binary and unary arithmetic ops.
* Removes old generated ops and integration tests that were testing details of the prior setup.
Register the following for the multiply op:
- tcf.mul
- tcp.mul
- TCP->TCP lowering
- Shape transfer, broadcasted multiplicands
- Lower to standard `MulFOp` op
* Two op interfaces, one for querying instance metadata and one for getting static data needed to construct an op from a generic form.
* For torch.generic_kernel ops, metadata is splatted in during capture from Torch (it comes from the op registry, which will work for either device capture or graph import).
* Moved the 'add' out of the generated set so I can experiment on it. It implements the TorchBuildableKernelOpInterface interface which provides its metadata.
* The ATenRecognizeKernelsPass pass generically lowers from a torch.generic_kernel to recognized ops that implement the TorchBuildableKernelOpInterface, handling the various types of transformations that we allow at this stage.
* Adds Basicpy List, Tuple, Dict types and plumbs through C API.
* Started debugging the issues around aten::conv2d capture, but a PyTorch bug is suspected.
* Was able to manually verify that the basic conv2d forward test captures correctly with a workaround.
* Need to resolve some printing issues upstream and move these tests to an integration test target (they take ~seconds to run).
* Now gets far enough to capture batch_norm.
* Has some issues still with in-place ops.
* Can materialize constants.
* Includes an upgrade to PyTorch nightly, which has important bug fixes for fallback and boxed kernel dispatch.
* Fixes#78, #79, #80.
* Will do more testing in a follow-up once further bugs are fixed that facilitate getting at the other features.
The time has come for BypassShapes/LowerShapedResultsToMemref to go away :(
For the reference backend, being consistent with upstream conventions is
the name of the game now.
This is a step down in a number of ways, e.g. test clarity and
separation of concerns. But it is fewer files and fewer tests, and
*does* address the "TODO: This is really fragile". It also eliminates two
more ops from the refback dialect (sadly, they are the
shaped_results/yield that we were getting kind of fond of, but alas).
Now that it has grown source/target materialization capabilities
(spelled with ops tensor_load/tensor_to_memref), we can use it. We can
also now delete refback.memref_to_tensor/refback.tensor_to_memref.
This is also a first step to reducing the downstream functionality
needed in the refback dialect.
* Need to have a dag of shared library deps in order to interop across python extensions (as presented in ODM).
* Introduced add_npcomp_library and friends to mirror the MLIR setup.
* Adds a libNPCOMP.so shared library.
* Redirects tools and extensions to link against libNPCOMP.so (instead of static libs).
* Moves all libraries to lib/, all binaries to bin/ and all python extensions to python/. The invariant is that the rpaths are setup to have a one level directory structure.
* Reworks the _torch_mlir extension to build like the others (still need to come up with a consolidated rule to do this instead of open coded).
* Includes an upstream version bump to pick up needed changes.
Sizes with dynamic linking (stripped, release, asserts enabled):
libNPCOMP.so: 43M (includes much of the underlying LLVM codegen deps)
libMLIR.so: 31M
_npcomp.so: 1.6M (python extension)
_torch_mlir.so: 670K (python extension)
npcomp-capi-ir-test: 6.3K
npcomp-opt: 351K
npcomp-run-mlir: 461K
mnist-playground: 530K
Still more can be done to normalize and optimize but this gets us structurally to the starting point.
I now realize that VerboseCamelCase is not the best choice for dialect
directory/file names and C++ identifiers (take e.g. "Linalg", "Basicpy",
etc. as prior art here; not LinearAlgebra or BasicPython). If I had to
name the convention it seems to be "Shortword" (or of course just
acronym dialects like LLVM, SCF, etc.).
This rename also has the side benefit of differentiating RefBackend
directories, which now refer to the actual backend itself, from
Refback/Refbackrt, which are the dialects which happen to be used by
that backend.
