Vector Addition
=================
In this tutorial, you will write a simple vector addition using Triton and learn about:
- The basic programming model of Triton
- The `triton.jit` decorator, which is used to define Triton kernels.
- The best practices for validating and benchmarking your custom ops against native reference implementations

Compute Kernel
--------------------------
.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 14-43
.. code-block:: default
import torch
import triton.language as tl
import triton
@triton.jit
def _add(
X, # *Pointer* to first input vector
Y, # *Pointer* to second input vector
Z, # *Pointer* to output vector
N, # Size of the vector
**meta # Optional meta-parameters for the kernel
):
pid = tl.program_id(0)
# Create an offset for the blocks of pointers to be
# processed by this program instance
offsets = pid * meta['BLOCK'] + tl.arange(0, meta['BLOCK'])
# Create a mask to guard memory operations against
# out-of-bounds accesses
mask = offsets < N
# Load x
x = tl.load(X + offsets, mask=mask)
y = tl.load(Y + offsets, mask=mask)
# Write back x + y
z = x + y
tl.store(Z + offsets, z)

Let's also declare a helper function to (1) allocate the `z` tensor
and (2) enqueue the above kernel with appropriate grid/block sizes.
.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 46-64
.. code-block:: default
def add(x, y):
z = torch.empty_like(x)
N = z.shape[0]
# The SPMD launch grid denotes the number of kernel instances that run in parallel.
# It is analogous to CUDA launch grids. It can be either Tuple[int], or Callable(metaparameters) -> Tuple[int]
grid = lambda meta: (triton.cdiv(N, meta['BLOCK']), )
# NOTE:
# - each torch.tensor object is implicitly converted into a pointer to its first element.
# - `triton.jit`'ed functions can be index with a launch grid to obtain a callable GPU kernel
# - don't forget to pass meta-parameters as keywords arguments
_add[grid](x, y, z, N, BLOCK=1024)
# We return a handle to z but, since `torch.cuda.synchronize()` hasn't been called, the kernel is still
# running asynchronously at this point.
return z

We can now use the above function to compute the element-wise sum of two `torch.tensor` objects and test its correctness:
.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 66-77
.. code-block:: default
torch.manual_seed(0)
size = 98432
x = torch.rand(size, device='cuda')
y = torch.rand(size, device='cuda')
za = x + y
zb = add(x, y)
print(za)
print(zb)
print(f'The maximum difference between torch and triton is ' f'{torch.max(torch.abs(za - zb))}')

tensor([1.3713, 1.3076, 0.4940, ..., 0.6724, 1.2141, 0.9733], device='cuda:0')
tensor([1.3713, 1.3076, 0.4940, ..., 0.6724, 1.2141, 0.9733], device='cuda:0')
The maximum difference between torch and triton is 0.0

Seems like we're good to go!
.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 81-86
Benchmark
-----------
We can now benchmark our custom op on vectors of increasing sizes to get a sense of how it does relative to PyTorch.
To make things easier, Triton has a set of built-in utilities that allow us to concisely plot the performance of your custom ops
for different problem sizes.

We can now run the decorated function above. Pass `print_data=True` to see the performance number, `show_plots=True` to plot them, and/or
`save_path='/path/to/results/' to save them to disk along with raw CSV data
