[mlir] Add Dynamic Dialects

[math-fehr]

Summary

Dynamic dialects are dialects that can be defined at runtime.
Dynamic dialects are extensible by new operations, types, and
attributes at runtime.

[math-fehr]

I would like to add tests for dynamic dialects, by creating a new dynamic dialect, and then populating it with dynamic operations, types, and attributes.
However, the way mlir-opt currently works is by creating a DialectRegistry, and then passing it to MlirOptMain.

Is there any way of getting somewhere a MLIRContext to register the dialect?
Alternatively, how should we register DynamicDialect from DialectRegistry, since we want to directly access them to add operations/types/attributes?

[math-fehr]

Add parsing and printing of types/attributes

[math-fehr]

Add missing newline at end of file

I think for the registry we could have a different type of allocator function that we wrap into the normal dialect allocator function. That way we could do
something like:

registry.insertDynamic("name", [](DynamicDialect *dialect) {
  // Insert the stuff for the dialect here.
});

Inside of the registry though, we should remove the need to create a TypeID upfront for dynamic dialects. Either by using a different registry map, or by using something like TypeID::get<void>() internally. Given that dynamic dialects don't have the same TypeID problems that normal dialects have, the TypeID in the registry doesn't really guard against much IMO.

Is this explicit initialization necessary?

mlir/include/mlir/IR/MLIRContext.h

117–118

This should likely be named getOrLoadDynamicDialect to match the other API. With that, why do we need to abort if a dialect of the same name is already loaded?

mlir/lib/IR/ExtensibleDialect.cpp

558

Diagnostic messages should start with a lower case. Same above.

mlir/lib/IR/MLIRContext.cpp

460

If we are actually loading the dialect, we could copy the string into abstractDialectSymbolAllocator or something. That would remove a lot of the uniquing cost.

Also, can you assert that we aren't in a multithreaded context here?

[math-fehr]

Address comments, and add insertDynamic to DialectRegistry.

[math-fehr]

I added an insertDynamic in the DialectRegistry.

My dynamic.mlir test is currently failing (it seems because of a memory issue), and I'll debug this tomorrow.

mlir/include/mlir/IR/MLIRContext.h

117–118

I think I'll change it so it returns nullptr instead of aborting.

The problem with a getOrLoadDynamicDialect is that we wouldn't know if the dialect was created or not.
With getOrLoadDialect<MyDialect>, we do not care if the dialect was just loaded or not, since the resulting dialect will be the same. However, with a getOrLoadDynamicDialect, we would either get a dialect with already some operations/types/attributes defined, or a new dialect with nothing in it.

Does that make sense?

mlir/lib/IR/MLIRContext.cpp

460

Is this what you meant about abstractDialectSymbolAllocator?

Also, for the multithreading context, adding an assert here seems to fail on my test. Is there some place where I should deactivate it when loading a new dynamic dialect with the DialectRegistry during parsing?

This is now fixed

Can we just do what we do in the normal case? i.e. pass in the initializer function and only call it if the dialect needs to be constructed?

mlir/lib/IR/Dialect.cpp

180

Can we move nameStr here? or do something like nameStr = name.str() in the capture list?

mlir/lib/IR/MLIRContext.cpp

460

That feels weird, we can only load a dialect in a non-multithreaded context. We are already asserting in getOrLoadDialect, but we should also assert here as well (just to make sure the assert context is more accurate)

Can we keep this in the test namespace? I don't think there is a good reason to diverge.

27

Could you move the functors out-of-line and the inline the call to DynamicOpDefinition::get?

(On Diff #428836)

This header shouldn't be necessary, it isn't included anywhere.

[rriddle]

Can you also add documentation on how to add/define a purely dynamic dialect?

[math-fehr]

Address comments

[math-fehr]

Remove unwanted line break

[math-fehr]

This should now be ready for review.
I added documentation for the dynamic dialect definition, and addressed the comments.

[rriddle]

Nice.

Can we pass by pointer here? Dialects are generally interacted with by-pointer, so it would be nice to be consistent here.

Is this to make sure the lambda returns the right type? Can you just mark the type in the lambda declaration? i.e. ...) -> Dialect * {

mlir/lib/IR/MLIRContext.cpp

467

The llvm:: shouldn't be necessary, can you drop it?

486

Can you just pass dialect by-value? It's a pointer so the reference doesn't matter.

1010–1011

This feels unrelated. Same with the comment changes above.

Super nit: can you drop the double newline?

Missing newline?

Can we drop the ::mlir:: on these? Same with the registry.

Address comments

[math-fehr]

I should have addressed the comments.
Could you land this for me?

[math-fehr]

Rebased on main

[math-fehr]

Sorry for the delay, I forgot a bit about this patch!
@rriddle, I just rebased it, could you land this for me, I do not have commit access?

[math-fehr]

Remove use of deprecated methods

Is this fully ready? Will land now if so (oops).

[math-fehr]

Yes, this is ready! I just updated it to the main.

mlir/docs/DefiningDialects.md

 `llvm::dyn_cast`, or `llvm::cast`:
 
 ```c++
 if (auto extensibleDialect = llvm::dyn_cast<ExtensibleDialect>(dialect)) {
     ...
 }
 ```
 
+### Defining a dynamic dialect
+
+Dynamic dialects are extensible dialects that can be defined at runtime. They
+are only populated with dynamic operations, types, and attributes. They can be
+registered in a `DialectRegistry` with `insertDynamic`.
+
+```c++
+auto populateDialect = [](MLIRContext *ctx, DynamicDialect* dialect) {
+  // Code that will be ran when the dynamic dialect is created and loaded.
+  // For instance, this is where we register the dynamic operations, types, and
+  // attributes of the dialect.
+  ...
+}
+
+registry.insertDynamic("dialectName", populateDialect);
+```
+
+Once a dynamic dialect is registered in the `MLIRContext`, it can be retrieved
+with `getOrLoadDialect`.
+
+```c++
+Dialect *dialect = ctx->getOrLoadDialect("dialectName");
+```
+
 ### Defining an operation at runtime
 
 The `DynamicOpDefinition` class represents the definition of an operation
 defined at runtime. It is created using the `DynamicOpDefinition::get`
 functions. An operation defined at runtime must provide a name, a dialect in
 which the operation will be registered in, an operation verifier. It may also
 optionally define a custom parser and a printer, fold hook, and more.
