This is a more stable commit that produce bitwise identical code to earlier
versions. Using commits after this one may lead to slightly different numerics
- Fix some whitespace.
- Make an undeclared dependency on `pytest` explicit.
- Fix deprecated `description-file` use.
- `#ifdef` out a deprecated `PyEval_InitThreads` call.
- Use a slightly different numpy invocation in `test_random.py` to quiet down overflow warnings in tests.
- Fix a deprecated cast in `test_core.py`.
- Suppress a warning about `visit_Constant` in Python 3.9+; we can't migrate yet because it'd break Python 3.6 and 3.7.
- Use chained exceptions for `CompilationError` rather than rolling our own; it makes the error messages nicer.
- Add a `__str__` for `tl.dtype` to make debugging kernels easier; it lets you `print` a dtype to see what type was inferred.
- Fix a few bad escapes.
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.
Improved codegen for the Ampere GPUs.
* Make the layout pass recognize the multistage pipelined pattern.
* Now the pipeline pass can automate the multistage pipelining transformation.
* Remove extra barriers (from the prefetch pass & WAR) on Ampere.
* Update the code generator (generator.cc) to make Triton generate n-buffered shared memory loads/stores.
* Now using unordered instead of ordered float (fixes NaN issues)
* Bool -> int32 now converts to 1 rather than -1
* Reduce extend arguments to 32-bits if possible
* update membar pass when data is double buffered
* Add instruction prefetch_s
* prefetch tests pass (except the 1 warp case)
* Fix the 1-warp bug
* Add back prefetch files
* Disable prefetch on a100
* Always add war barrier on sm>=80
This massively simplifies implementation of `reassociate` and also fixes
a bunch of bug. The pass could still be improved, but can already be used
to generate constant pointer offsets in eg the matmul epilogue
