Commit message
Modifies GPU translation to accept GPU binaries embedding them using the
object manager interface method embedBinary, as well as accepting kernel
launch operations translating them using the interface method launchKernel.
Depends on D154152
Explanation
Summary:
These patches aim to be a replacement to the current GPU compilation infrastructure, with extensibility and trying to minimizing future disruption as the primary goal.
The biggest updates performed by these patches are:
- The introduction of Target attributes, these attributes handle compilation of GPU modules into binary strings. These attributes can be implemented by any dialect, leaving the option for downstream users to implement their own serializations.
- The introduction of the GPU binary operation, this operation stores GPU objects for different targets and can be invoked by gpu.launch_func.
- Making gpu.binary & gpu.launch_func translatable to LLVM IR, with the translation being controlled by Object Manager attributes.
- The introduction of the gpu-module-to-binary pass. This pass serializes GPU modules into GPU binaries, using the GPU targets available in the module.
- The introduction of the #gpu.select_object object manager as the default object manager, it selects a single object for embedding in the IR, by default it selects the first object.
These patches leave the current infrastructure in place, allowing for a migration period for downstream users.
Examples:
- GPU modules using target attributes:
gpu.module @my_module [#gpu.nvptx<chip = "sm_90">, #gpu.amdgpu, #gpu.amdgpu<chip = "gfx90a">] {
...
}- Applying the gpu-module-to-binary pass:
gpu.module @my_module [#gpu.nvptx<chip = "sm_90">, #gpu.amdgpu] {
...
}
; mlir-opt --gpu-module-to-binary
gpu.binary @my_module [#gpu.object<#gpu.nvptx<chip = "sm_90">, "BINARY DATA">, #gpu.object<#gpu.amdgpu, "BINARY DATA">]- Choosing the #gpu.amdgpu object for embedding:
gpu.binary @my_module <#gpu.select_object<#gpu.amdgpu>> [#gpu.object<#gpu.nvptx<chip = "sm_90">, "BINARY DATA">, #gpu.object<#gpu.amdgpu, "BINARY DATA">] ; It's also valid to pass the index of the object. gpu.binary @my_module <#gpu.select_object<1>> [#gpu.object<#gpu.nvptx<chip = "sm_90">, "BINARY DATA">, #gpu.object<#gpu.amdgpu, "BINARY DATA">]
Testing:
This infrastructure was tested in 2 systems, one with a NVIDIA V100 and the other one with a AMD MI250X, in both cases the test completion was successful.
Input files:
- test.cpp
- test_nvvm.mlir
- test_rocdl.mlir
- Steps for assembling the test for the NVIDIA system:
mlir-opt --gpu-to-llvm --gpu-module-to-binary test_nvvm.mlir | mlir-translate --mlir-to-llvmir -o test_nvptx.ll clang++ test_nvptx.ll test.cpp -l
Output file: test_nvptx.ll
- Steps for assembling the test for the AMD system:
mlir-opt --gpu-to-llvm --gpu-module-to-binary test_rocdl.mlir | mlir-translate --mlir-to-llvmir -o test_amdgpu.ll clang++ test_amdgpu.ll test.cpp -l
Output file: test_amdgpu.ll
