Yi Zhang 7b7c9c5d3d Add aten.relu Linalg lowering support 2021-06-16 08:18:14 -07:00
Sean Silva 370e3270ab Introduce `!torch.tensor` / `!torch.vtensor` types.
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/`

Sean Silva 2efda323ff Significantly restructure torch/aten import design.
This is a really major and invasive restructuring of the way we get
torch operators (`torch::jit::Operator` / `c10::OperatorHandle`) into
MLIR. Please forgive the challenging review, but due to the sheer
invasiveness, it wasn't really practical do do it in sane smaller
pieces.

This fully replaces everything that was already working on the
TorchScript path (actually, more -- we added tanh support to
TorchToLinalg in order to delete the older code paths). Additionally,
I've kept the lights on for the acap path too, including what little e2e
stuff was working before (for expediency I made a few tiny compromises
along the way that will be easy to undo when we give that path proper
attention).

Overview of the new design:
- The torch operator `somens::someunqualname.someoverloadname` is
  imported as `torch.somens.someunqualname.someoverloadname` (skip the
  last dotted part if the overload name is empty), OR, if we don't have
  such an op registered, it is imported as
  `torch.operator "somens.someunqualname.someoverloadname" (...) : ...`.
  - The addition of the "overload name" is a critical element here, as
    the `(ns,unqual,overload)` triple is unique, which solves a lot of
    problems we were having.
  - This involves having separate MLIR ops for the `trailing_` and
    `.out` variants and all the different overloads. This seemed
    necessary, because the set of overloads is so wild and varied and
    unstructured. The previous design was leaning into some underlying
    structure that just isn't there -- the default situation is
    the "random overload that we want to manage on the MLIR side",
    rather than that being an exception. E.g.  `aten::ne` (not-equal)
    has 21 overloads, only 4 of which are c10 dispatcher ops see
    [gist](https://gist.github.com/silvasean/190ba918c550c956260e21254e1b8aa1),
    and the "out" variant is really called `.Tensor_out` instead of
    `.out` as it frequently is for other ops.
  - Rationale for all being in `torch` namespace: the set of operators
    are so varied and unstructured that "dialect per namespace"
    doesn't result in anything resembling the typical MLIR dialect
    boundary expectations. We could maybe draw the boundary at
    dispatcher ops vs non-dispatcher ops, but that doesn't seem to
    really result in very much useful structure at this point in time.
  - Note: within the torch operator registry, we effectively have a
    mini-basicpy subdialect (already type-resolved), which is reasonably
    structured.
  - The existing Torch op interfaces are also removed -- now that we
    track the overload name, we can losslessly find the original
    operator.
- Instead of `ATenRecognizeKernelsPass`, we now have a
  `ReduceOpVariantsPass` that keys off certain traits (and perhaps
  eventually interfaces) to reduce variants of ops to a smaller set,
  ideally operating on immutable tensors and using surrounding ops to
  model the mutability/aliasing aspects.
  - Note: `torch.ns.unqual.overload` ops allow both immutable and
    mutable tensors (unlike the previous hard distinction in the common
    case). This is a premonition for a future change that will introduce a
    bona fide `!torch.tensor` type that will clean up a bunch of stuff.
- `TorchToLinalg` / `TorchToStd` supercede the existing
  "ATen->TCF->TCP->Linalg" path.
- The new `torch_ods_gen.py` supercedes `torch_signature_ods_gen.py`.
  It should look somewhat familiar, but the benefit of hindsight has
  allowed a lot of simplifications.

The overall trend seems to be to make the `torch` dialect a nice layer
independent of anything else. It feels like as a natural result of
various future changes we will be removing the reliance on basicpy+numpy
dialects and have a nice self-contained type system too that properly
models the TorchScript type system (including proper subtyping,
mutable/immutable tensors, optional dtype, etc.).

Recommended review order:
- Start at some of the new import IR, e.g. in
  `frontends/pytorch/test/node_import/prim.py`,
  `frontends/pytorch/test/acap_export/test_export_add3.py`, and other
  tests.
- `frontends/pytorch/python/torch_mlir_utils/codegen/torch_ods_gen.py`
  and associated generated files:
  - `include/npcomp/Dialect/Torch/IR/GeneratedAtenOps.td`
  - `include/npcomp/Dialect/Torch/IR/GeneratedPrimOps.td`
- Inspect `ReduceOpVariants.cpp` / `reduce-op-variants.mlir` and the new
  traits in `include/npcomp/Dialect/Torch/IR/TorchTraits.h`
- Various code changes in the import path in
  `frontends/pytorch/csrc/builder`. Probably most interesting is the new
  code in `torch_to_mlir_utils.cpp` that has the logic to create the
  `torch.operator` ops or `torch.ns.unqual.overload` ops.

This is the [new ResNet IR](https://gist.github.com/silvasean/5407aafb710d07612b7b5b92eabecebe),
just to be able to look at a substantial sample of IR in the new style.
