'amx' Dialect

The Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) provide a tile matrix multiply unit (TMUL), a tile control register (TILECFG), and eight tile registers TMM0 through TMM7 (TILEDATA).

This AMX dialect provides a bridge between MLIR concepts such as vectors and memrefs and the lower level LLVM IR support of AMX. The dialect is split into user-facing AMX ops (AMX_Op) and backend-facing intrinsic ops (AMX_IntrOp).

Note that since configuration changes (implicit at dialect level) are costly, it is highly recommended to use the AMX dialect on same-shaped vectors, at least within a single method.

amx.tile_load (amx::TileLoadOp) ¶

Tile load operation

Syntax:

operation ::= `amx.tile_load` $base `[` $indices `]` attr-dict `:` type($base) `into` type($res)

Loads a tile from memory defined by a base and indices, with the shape defined by the 2-dim vector type of the result. This is eventually lowered into the “tileloadd” instruction with the corresponding tile configuration.

Example:

  %0 = amx.tile_load %arg0[%c0, %c0] : memref<?x?xi8> into vector<16x64xi8>

Traits: AlwaysSpeculatableImplTrait

Interfaces: ConditionallySpeculatable, NoMemoryEffect (MemoryEffectOpInterface)

Effects: MemoryEffects::Effect{}

amx.tile_mulf (amx::TileMulFOp) ¶

Tile multiplication operation (floating-point)

Syntax:

operation ::= `amx.tile_mulf` $lhs `,` $rhs `,` $acc attr-dict `:` type($lhs) `,` type($rhs) `,` type($acc)

Multiplies a “m x k” tile with a “k x n” tile and accumulates the results into a “m x n” destination tile. Supports “f32 <- bf16 x bf16” (with pairs of “bf16”). The operation is eventually lowered into the “tdpbf16ps” instruction with the corresponding tile configuration.

Example:

  %0 = amx.tile_mulf %a, %b, %c
    : vector<16x32xbf16>, vector<16x32xbf16>, vector<16x16xf32>

Traits: AlwaysSpeculatableImplTrait

Interfaces: ConditionallySpeculatable, NoMemoryEffect (MemoryEffectOpInterface)

amx.tile_muli (amx::TileMulIOp) ¶

Tile multiplication operation (integer)

Syntax:

operation ::= `amx.tile_muli` $lhs (`zext` $isZextLhs^)? `,` $rhs (`zext` $isZextRhs^)? `,` $acc attr-dict `:` type($lhs) `,` type($rhs) `,` type($acc)

Multiplies a “m x k” tile with a “k x n” tile and accumulates the results into a “m x n” destination tile. Supports all “si32 <- s/ui8 x s/ui8” combinations (4 bytes packed into dwords in the columns of both the source operand tiles; the zero or sign extension is specified with the attributes and default to sign extended). The operation is eventually lowered into one of the “tdpbssd”, “tdpbsud”, “tdpbusd”, or “tdpbuud” instructions with the corresponding tile configuration.

Example:

  %0 = amx.tile_muli %a zext, %b zext, %c
    : vector<16x64xi8>, vector<16x64xi8>, vector<16x16xi32>

amx.tile_store (amx::TileStoreOp) ¶

Tile store operation

Syntax:

operation ::= `amx.tile_store` $base `[` $indices `]` `,` $val attr-dict `:` type($base) `,` type($val)

Stores a tile to memory defined by a base and indices, with the shape defined by the 2-dim vector type of the value. This is eventually lowered into the “tilestored” instruction with the corresponding tile configuration.

Example:

  amx.tile_store %arg1[%c0, %c0], %0 : memref<?x?xi8>, vector<16x64xi8>

Operands: ¶

amx.tile_zero (amx::TileZeroOp) ¶

Tile zero operation

Syntax:

operation ::= `amx.tile_zero` attr-dict `:` type($res)

Zeroes the destination tile, with the shape defined by the 2-dim vector type of the result. This is eventually lowered into the “tilezero” instruction with the corresponding tile configuration.

Example:

  %0 = amx.tile_zero : vector<16x16xbf16>

Traits: AlwaysSpeculatableImplTrait

Interfaces: ConditionallySpeculatable, NoMemoryEffect (MemoryEffectOpInterface)
