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.
The term "pseudo" is very vague and was getting confusing (I felt I had
to explain it in every comment referencing it). Instead, rework the
"pseudo" ops to instead be named:
- MLIR Syntax: `torch.valsem.*`
- C++ / ODS: `ValsemVariant*Op`
This makes it clear what the concept is, and avoids confusion with other
things that might be called "pseudo", since these are very specific and
should be 100% consistently named w.r.t. the non-valsem-variant ops that
they correspond to.
This leads to much more succinct types in many cases:
```
!torch.list<!torch.int>
!torch.list<int>
!torch.tuple<!torch.list<!torch.int>, !torch.list<!torch.int>>
!torch.tuple<list<int>, list<int>>
!torch.optional<!torch.list<!torch.int>>
!torch.optional<list<int>>
!torch.list<list<list<tensor>>>
!torch.list<!torch.list<!torch.list<!torch.tensor>>>
```
I would like to take this further and allow omitting the `!torch.`
prefix in all cases, but that's harder -- for example, we currently use
`FuncOp` for functions, and so I don't think we can customize the
printing there. It seems like it will be a longer road to getting that
level of customization.
See the documentation in `docs/shape_lib.md` and
`docs/adding_a_shape_function.md` for an overview of the system.
This completely overhauls how we represent shape functions. In
particular, RefineTypes does not infer shapes anymore (only dtypes).
Shape functions are now written in (TorchScript'able) Python.
Recommended review order:
1. Read `docs/shape_lib.md` and `docs/adding_a_shape_function.md`.
1. Code and tests for ReifyShapeCalculations, DropShapeCalculations.
1. Code and tests for SimplifyShapeCalculations.
1. shape_lib_gen.py
1. Code and tests for new RefineTypes pass.
1. Random folders/canonicalizers in TorchOps.cpp and associated test in
`canonicalize.mlir`.
1. New ReadOnly trait inferred from the registry.
1. Any miscellaneous remaining stuff.
