Rename BlockAndValueMapping to IRMapping
Moved PrimTupleConstructOp type validation to its own verifier as the
tablegen version does not work for a combination of variadic input and
non-variadic output.
The updated LLVM code includes a patch to create bfloat16 array
attributes, thus enabling a different patch to torch-mlir to flesh out
support for the bfloat16 type.
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.

This creates the `external/torch-mlir` directory as an
LLVM_EXTERNAL_PROJECTS-compatible project (analogous to
`iree-dialects`) and completes movement/rename of all pure MLIR C/C++
compiler code into there. The next step will be to move all the Python
code / code that links/includes PyTorch C++ code (which currently lives
in `frontends/pytorch`) into a subdirectory here.
I call this "earthmoving" because it is mostly mechanical changes and
renames. As a quick summary (we can change this down the road easily)
- C++ `mlir::NPCOMP::Torch -> mlir::torch::Torch`
- CAPI `npcompTorchListTypeGet -> torchMlirTorchListTypeGet`
- preprocessor `#ifndef NPCOMP_ -> #ifndef TORCHMLIR_`
- CMake `NPCOMPFoo -> TorchMLIRFoo`
The goal of this is to create a standalone project creating a center of
mass for entry into the MLIR ecosystem from PyTorch, suitable in scope
for eventual inclusion/ownership in PyTorch. The idea is that
`external/torch-mlir` will some day be pulled out into its own
repository, and then npcomp will simply pull it in as a submodule.
Layering-wise, what lives in `torch-mlir` lowers code from PyTorch
(currently TorchScript, but TorchFX or pytorch/xla-style tracing are
possible extensions) down to what we have been calling the "Torch
backend contract" which is cleaned up IR (inlining, simplifcation,
conversion to value tensors, ...) entirely in the `torch` dialect. This
is the branching off point for further lowering, of which npcomp takes
one opinion (outside `torch-mlir` of course!), namely the
`TorchConversion` dialect/transforms which lower to IR suitable for IREE
and other linalg-on-tensors based lower-level compilers.
Summary of changes:
- move `{include,lib,test}/Dialect/Torch` into `torch-mlir`
- move relevant parts of CAPI into `torch-mlir`.
- leave a few things related to the `torch-mlir` Python build commented
out, which should be resolved in a subsequent change.
This adds a pattern to MaximizeValueSemantics which does a simple
abstract interpretation within a block, which handles simple cases of
`torch.overwrite_tensor`, enough to remove all the unnecessary uses of
non-value tensors in ResNet right now.

Also,
- Split `torch.copy.tensor` into `torch.copy.to_tensor` and
`torch.copy.to_vtensor` which convert between value and non-value
semantic tensors. This is a much cleaner factorization as they have
very separate use cases and properties (e.g. different side effects)
- Remove the various canonicalization patterns they had, which were
confusing because they resulted in limited forms of maximizing value
semantics throughout the pipeline. We should structure our compilation
pipeline such that only MaximizeValueSemantics should be maximizing
value semantics.
- Adjust pass pipeline to only run MaximizeValueSemantics once.
- Make OverwriteTensorOp `$value` always be a value tensor and
`$overwritten` be a non-value tensor.
This finishes removing the dependence on the basicpy dialect!
Changes:
- Add `!torch.bool` type and replace use of `!basicpy.BoolType` in
Torch-related code.
- Rename BuiltinTensorize to BackendTypeConversion since now it handles
bool conversions (and, when we add !torch.int and !torch.float, it
will handle those as well), and generalize the related utilities (I
also moved them to Torch/Transforms since they aren't really part of
Torch/IR).
- Add `torch.to_i1` and `torch.from_i1` ops for materializations
- [cleanup] Reorganize `torch.constant.*` ops in TorchOps.td
- Remove dependency of `torch` dialect on `basicpy` dialect and also
`std` dialect. For `std`, we use some call related ops, but the
`torch` dialect itself never produces them (we have passes that do
though).
This is fairly mechanical. Recommended review order:
- New stuff in Torch/IR
- New BuiltinTypeConversion files.
- Mechnical fixups elsewhere.
- Add `torch.constant.none` op to construct it (naming is chosen to be
analogous to Torch's representation of a prim::Constant with
NoneType, rather than using the "singleton" terminology of Basicpy).
This removes our reliance on the numpy dialect and avoids our off-label
use of the builtin tnesor type for modeling unknown dtypes. The
`!torch.vtensor` (`ValueTensorType`) type is a value-semantic tensor.
The `!torch.tensor` (`NonValueTensorType`) type is a non-value-semantic
tensor. The new types look as follows syntactically:
```
// Least-static-information, non-value-semantic tensor.
!torch.tensor
// Explicit form of least-static-information variant.
!torch.tensor<*,unk>
// Least-static-information, value-semantic tensor.
!torch.vtensor
// Explicit form of least-static-information variant.
!torch.vtensor<*,unk>
// Fixed-set of allowable element types, with first-class support for
// Torch's frontend signedness semantics.
!torch.tensor<*,si32>
// First-class support for unknown dtypes.
!torch.tensor<[?,?,?],unk>
// Standard MLIR representation of `?` for unknown dimensions.
!torch.tensor<[?,2,?,4],unk>
// Statically shaped / dtyped example.
!torch.vtensor<[1,2,3,4],f32>
```
This required fairly significant changes throughout the compiler, but
overall it is a big cleanup. We now have a much clearer layering of "the
Torch frontend lowering" vs "lowering to std + linalg + etc.".
At the C++ level, there is `ValueTensorType`, `NonValueTensorType`.
We also have a helper `BaseTensorType` (kind of like ShapedType) which
interoperates with those two.
Included changes:
- New `torch.tensor(dense<0.0> : tensor<5xf32>) : !torch.tensor` op for
creating torch tensor literals in the frontend.
- Consistently use signedness for the types (except i1 which I didn't
touch -- we need to sort out the situation with !basicpy.BoolType
there anyway so will be attending to that soon)
- Frontend can annotate whether an argument to the function has value
semantics. We currently require this, as our backend contract does not
currently allow us to even model the non-value-semantic case. Before,
the value-semantic assumption was randomly injected in the middle of
the pass pipeline.
- Move ArrayToTensor (now called MaximizeValueSemantics) and
RefinePublicReturn passes to torch dialect.
- The TorchToStd and TorchToLinalg passes are now type conversions from
`!torch.vtensor` to `tensor` and use the dialect conversion infra.
The overall conversion pipeline is set up following the best practices
of the "Type Conversions the Not-So-Hard Way" talk. This required
introducing `torch-func-builtin-tensorize` and
`torch-finalizing-builtin-tensorize` passes analogous to the upstream
bufferization passes with the corresponding names (mostly just
copypasta from there).
- Misc Torch-level canonicalizations -- we now cleanly layer the
lowering to std later in the pipeline, so we are gradually lessening
our reliance on random std constant folding before we get to that
point.
Recommended review order:
- New types in TorchTypes.td/TorchTypes.h/TorchDialect.cpp
- New ops in TorchOps.td / TorchOps.cpp
- Less important / more mechanical stuff
- Frontend changes.
- Pass changes/additions in `Torch/Transforms` and `Conversion/`
This pass incorporates torch.type_bound info and also removes NoneType
returns (eventually it will rewrite tuple types too, but can't yet
because !basicpy.TupleType doesn't track element types).
Recommend looking at adjust-calling-conventions.mlir first to see what
it is doing, and holding your nose for the implementation of the pass.
I decided to implement this with the conversion framework, because it
gives us *some* goodies for type conversion -- mainly avoiding large
amounts of tricky RAUW dances. Unfortunately, the conversion framework
isn't a perfect fit for a couple reasons:
- the incorporation of torch.type_bound is a context-sensitive rewrite
(requires looking at the arg attr, not just the type).
- NoneType conversion is 1->0, which requires some special handling
- (not implemented yet) 1->N tuple type conversions require special
handling.
It's a little bit scary, but on balance doing it the other way would
have its own downsides.
