This PR adds a BF16 data-type, along with FP32 <-> BF16 conversion instructions in the LLVM codegen. Other kinds of ops on bfloat16 are not yet supported.
This PR implements a major overhaul of the frontend for Triton, and replaces Triton-C by a pure Python API in which kernels are defined as @triton.jit decorated functions. The documentation and tutorials have also been updated to accommodate these changes.
See documentations for more information on the new API
torch-blocksparse package:
* Now using warp shuffle in reductions when possible
* Various bugfixes in layout inference
