- renames of OwningRewritePatternList -> RewritePatternSet
- also `insert` to `add`
- RewritePatternSet holds a context now
- memref dialect split from std
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 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.
Register the following for the multiply op:
- tcf.mul
- tcp.mul
- TCP->TCP lowering
- Shape transfer, broadcasted multiplicands
- Lower to standard `MulFOp` op
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).
* 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.
This is the first in a patch series that is refactoring the
constellation of things variously called or associated with "E2E",
"RefE2E", "npcomprt", and "TCP" into a more cleanly layered result.
Concretely, this first patch fixes the fact that TCP was basically
acting like a dumping ground needed by the reference backend. This
splits it out, which is fairly mechanical, but touches a lot of lines of
code (basically replacing `tcp` with `refback` and `TCP` with
`RefBackend).
Now, the RefBackend dialect is that dumping ground, which
is slighly better, as it starts allowing TCP to become a nice clean
middle layer that is not related per se to the reference backend.
The previous name RefE2E or "reference e2e flow" was super confusing.
Now that we are seeing more clearly where the "backend" distinction
lies, the [RefBackend] commit tag is born :)

- Update to linalg syntax
- New generated builders are better. Custom builder for
tcp.shaped_results is now redundant.
This now gets the overall "RefE2E" compilation stack to a point that I'm
fairly happy with. We simplify it by mostly embracing the "descriptor"
view of the world.
The overall flow is best understood by reading through the
createE2ELoweringPipeline function in lib/E2E/E2E.cpp
That function creates a pass pipeline that lowers from "TCF" (which is
~numpy level of abstraction) down to LLVM IR.
A brief high-level summary of what happens there:
1. TCF to TCP conversion. This involves reifying error handling in the
form of shape constraints. See test/Conversion/TCFToTCP/basic.mlir
2. Lowering shape constraints. This converts shape constraints into
eager error-handling code. See test/E2E/lower-shape-constraints.mlir
This pass will soon go upstream.
Because this lowers to std.assert, some later passes like
LowerToNpcomprtABI and LowerToLLVM are updated to properly plumb this
through e2e.
See test/npcomp-run-mlir/invalid-broadcast.mlir for an execution test
that properly aborts in case of an error.
3. Lowering tensors to memrefs. This is done via a series of passes
rather than an single mega conversion. Unlike the previous code that
mixed in the npcomprt ABI stuff here, it's now a very clean "pure
memref" conversion.
See test/E2E/lower-*-to-memref.mlir and
lib/E2E/TensorToMemref/
Most of the changes are concentrated here.
4. As part of the above, we use the upstream ConvertShapeToStandard for
lowering shapes.
5. We lower linalg to loops and lower loops to CFG using upstream
passes.
6. Rewrite the "ABI" boundaries of the program to npcomprt data
structures (LowerToNpcomprtABI). This mainly affects ABI boundaries and
how global tensor constants are represented. One of the major
improvements in this commit is that now it's a very clean rewrite that
just replaces memrefs on ABI boundaries with !npcomprt.tensor (before
there was a get_extent function that is not needed).
See test/E2E/lower-to-npcomprt-abi.mlir
7. Lower to LLVM with upstream mlir patterns + some patterns for the
npcomprt lowerings.
One aspect here that is still a remnant of a non-descriptor-based tensor
to memref flow is the BypassShapes + LowerShapedResultsToMemref.
BypassShapes wraps the "tensor compute" ops in a tcp.shaped_results
(basically a "tie_shape" kind of op), and then
LowerShapedResultsToMemref uses those annotations to allocate output
buffers while lowering the "tensor compute ops". Note that there are
very few "tensor compute" ops currently supported (tcp.add +
tcp.broadcast_to), so we just hardcode them in both passes.
Realistically, I expect this to go away as we fully embrace the
descriptor-based approach for simplicity, so don't look too deep into
it.

* Change LowerToLLVM to pass an MLIRContext vs an LLVMDialect for type creation.
* Remove dep on MLIREDSCInterface that is removed upstream.
* Thread through the DialectRegistry for opt and python-like tools.
* Modernize pass registration (This was forced because the GEN_PASS_REGISTRATION code now generates inline functions vs literal pass registration statements)

This more clearly captures its semantics as a structural "observer" of
code that we currently mark as NoSideEffect but eventually lowers to
eager error handling code.
Also, update LowerRankedShapes to erase it, now that the layering here
is clear. That pass reifies the eager error handling code, so the need
for the dummy op to keep things alive isn't needed.
With this change, we are now ready to start lowering to LLVM!
This is the current print-ir-after-all from e2e-lowering-pipeline:
https://reviews.llvm.org/P8221
This uses an approach inspired by what is done in IREE. See comments on
LowerRankedShapes.cpp for how it works.
The basic gist is that we have an op that creates a !shape.shape from a
set of SSA values representing the extents, and then iteratively replace
any op producing a !shape.shape with instances of that op.
