As [@ezyang suggested](https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/90276#issuecomment-1339791275),
use `torch._dynamo.optimizations.training.aot_autograd` instead of raw
`make_fx`. This is more future proof and gives us the backward pass and
functionalization. We don't currently get functionalization because of
https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/90759
This also incidentally fixes the source location handling, which makes
`lockstep_basic.py` give an accurate source location!
This adds a basic e2e Config for TorchDynamo using
Linalg-on-Tensors/RefBackend.
But TorchDynamo is pretty orthogonal to
various other pieces, so it should compose nicely with variations like:
- Switching out all the backends (Linalg-on-Tensors, TOSA, MHLO)
- PyTorch functionalization and decompositions
- Taking the example inputs and compiling with all dynamic or all static
shapes without duplicating tests.
This adds it to the CI, but there are still a lot of XFAIL's.
This also adds a helper `from torch_mlir.dynamo import
make_simple_dynamo_backend` which simplifies some of the steps for
making a Torch-MLIR-based TorchDynamo backend. We include "simple" in
the name because we are going to be exploring various things next from
the long-term roadmap.
The next steps are:
- Burn down all the XFAIL's.
- Start working on the pieces from the [long-term roadmap](https://github.com/llvm/torch-mlir/blob/main/docs/long_term_roadmap.md).
- Add functionalization/decompositions into the TorchDynamo flow and
remove reliance on the current Torch-MLIR "frontend".
- Write a pure-Python direct FX->MLIR importer.
- Hook up the new PyTorch symbolic shape stuff.
- Explore PrimTorch decompositions for simplifying backends.
