This commit changes the `InsertRngGlobalsPass` to `TorchConversionToMLProgram`
pass. This commit also adds the `MLProgramBufferize` pass for the
bufferization of ml_program dialect ops to run on refbackend.

The current implementation sets the `nextSeed` value to `temp & 127`,
which is wrong. The last step of the LCG algorithm for the multiplier
and increment chosen should be `temp % 2^{64} = temp & (1 <<
63)`. However, because we are dealing with i64 values, the modulus
operation happens automatically, so it is not needed.

In addition to updating the llvm-project submodule, this patch also:
1. updates shape functions and tests so that `func` and `call`
operations refer to the `func` dialect
2. avoid duplicate registration of dialects
This PR include the following pieces:
- Add torch `Generator` type. `Generator` type is converted to i64 in
refbackend type converter.
- Add seed managment support for the default global generator.
`torch_c.getNextSeed` op is used to get the seed. On refbackend, the
`torch_c.getNextSeed` is lowered to load/store from [0] of global
variable `default_generator` memref<i64> in `InsertRngGlobals` pass.
- Add `aten.uniform_` and testing as an example op for RNG ops. Add
`torch.pseudo.aten.uniform` op. It has the same operands and return as
the `aten.uniform_` from the op registry except for value semantics.
This change is to unblock the work of some backprop ops returning more
than one tensors. We will need to think of a more scalable approach
in the future if more flexible return types combinations are needed.
Support for returning elemental types. Previously, only
memref types as returning types was supported. All the hacky ways
to write tests which return elemental types should be taken care of.

It doesn't work properly with the new dialect registration framework.
This was latent and only was exposed when running through npcomp-opt.
Not worth investing the brainpower to fix now.
These were legacy concepts that are now superceded by direct Torch to
linalg-on-tensors lowering. These were based on some very early thinking
related to the layering of frontends vs codegen, which is now obsolete
because:
- We expected a lot more centralization at the frontend (TCF) level. It
turns out that frontend needs really vary a lot, and there is no grand
unifying TCF dialect plausible. The additional layer isn't worth it.
- Linalg-on-tensors obsoletes the primary need for TCP. There are still
a few things not representable with linalg-on-tensors, but the support
is growing and the whole "not included in linalg-on-tensors" direction
needs to be rethought. Our TCP dialect didn't cover any of the
actually important things in this space (such as sort, FFT, top-k,
etc.).
See historical [slides](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iljcpTQ5NPaMfGpoPDFml1XkYxjK_6A4/view) / [recording](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jSPa8TwPKUt0WuLquGc8OgSUVYJHMvWZ/view)
for more details on the origin story here.
Their presence was confusing users too
[bug](https://github.com/llvm/mlir-npcomp/issues/248).
Also,
- Trim down npcomp-run-mlir testing. It was testing TCF to TCP
lowering for the most part. The essential stuff is retained and
rephrased with linalg-on-tensors. (we should probably rename it
"refback-run" or something, as it is just a way to invoke RefBackend)
- test/Python/Backend/RefJIT/simple_invoke_numpy.py is XFAIL'ed. Our
"anti-framework" direction seems to be the likely future path.
- renames of OwningRewritePatternList -> RewritePatternSet
- also `insert` to `add`
- RewritePatternSet holds a context now
- memref dialect split from std
* 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`
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`
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).
Now, the only bufferization we have left is lowering tensor constants to
memref, which will hopefully proceed soon after Rahul's new
std.global_memref lands + the lowering to LLVM IR. Then I'll port
LowerConstantTensorsToMemref to upstream and we'll be 100% upstream
bufferization, except for our local TCP dialect (which will probably go
away and be replaced by std elementwise + linalg named ops on tensors :)
).
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.
Now the reference backend is cleanly accepts "TCP"+scalar ops.
We introduce tcf-refback-lowering-pipeline which also does TCF->TCP
conversion for convenience until we have a "target interface".
