[CK Tile] Rule-based configuration generation in CK
 Dispatcher codegen (#8157)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Motivation

The CK Tile Dispatcher code generation for CK Tile Profiler relies on
flat JSON files to list the generated configurations. This approach has
the following problems

- The JSON files are verbose
- The JSON files get easily out of sync with the CK Builder .config
files from which they were generated from.
- The JSON file based configuration make it hard to list explicitly the
rules that govern the instance generation.

## Technical Details

Replaced the JSON files with a rule based configuration. To preserve the
existing functionality, the `profiler` and the `tests` instance sets are
generated directly from the CK Builder config files. The JSON config
files are removed from source control, and the "on-the-fly" generation
guarantees that the Dispatcher codegen uses up to date configurations.

This is PR introduces six different rule sets for the CK Tile Dispatcher
code generation

1. `profiler`: matches with the old JSON set of profiler configurations.
2. `tests`: matches with the old JSON set of tests configurations.
3. `full`: full configuration set created from a rule-based config
selection
4. `full-tests`: a subset of `full` for generating configurations for
convolution integration tests.
5. `tiny`: a subset of `full-tests` to produce the minimal set of
configurations to test the Dispatcher codegen.
6. `default`: the default rules, which corresponds to the existing
heuristic rules for configuration selection. This ensures that ML based
kernel selection doesn't get broken.

The main use of the `full` rule set is to define a reasonable solution
space for the possible implicit GEMM configurations. We start from the
configurations that allowed by the device architecture. The `full` rule
set defines the relevant tile sizes for each convolution direction. From
the tile size we have a curated mapping to the number of waves over the
different GEMM axes, i.e., we describe how many waves each GEMM
dimensions corresponds to. The GEMM-K wave tile dimension can be
computed from the other parameters and does not need to be listed
explicitly.

An orthogonal axis to the tiling strategy is the vectorization strategy.
This mainly defined by the data type and hardware as in general, we want
to use the maximum possible load widths. The maximum sizes for each
convolution direction variant are defined by the implicit GEMM matrix
dimensions. For cases where have a low number of channels per
convolution group, we need smaller vector load sizes. These are captured
by the `VecStrategy` enumeration in the codegen rules.

The problem with the rule based configuration selection is that we "over
generate" configurations. The old JSON configurations compose
approximately 25% of all configuration that the `full` rule set creates.
The additional configurations are valid, but they many not provide any
performance benefits. Hence, we keep the `profiler` and `tests` rule set
for now to avoid building an excessive amount configurations by default.
The `full` rule set can be taken into use by specifying CMake
configuration flag `-D DISPATCHER_RULE_SET=full`. By default, the
`tests` rule set is used, i.e., we don't change the existing bahaviour.

## Test Plan

Added a new stage in the CI/CD pipeline that ensures the Dispatcher
codegen rules are up to date. Otherwise the functionality is covered by
the existing CI/CD tests. There are no functional changes to the
convolution kernels. Only how the different instances are generated.

## Test Result

If the CK Tile conv instances build without errors, the Dispatcher
codegen is generating valid code. If all tests in CI/CD pipeline are
passing, the Dispatcher codegen generates valid instances.

[CK] [CK_Tile] Add FMHA scaffolding to CK kernel dispatcher (#5260)

## Motivation

The CK Tile dispatcher currently supports GEMM and Grouped Convolution
but has no support for Fused Multi-Head Attention (FMHA). The
example/ck_tile/01_fmha folder contains a comprehensive FMHA
implementation with forward, backward, split-KV, paged-KV, append-KV,
and batch-prefill kernels across multiple GPU architectures — but there
is no unified dispatch layer for it. This PR ports the FMHA stack into
the dispatcher, following the same architectural patterns established by
GEMM and Grouped Convolution, enabling runtime kernel selection, JIT
compilation from Python, and a declarative C++ example flow. Autotuning
heuristics to follow.

## Technical Details

This PR adds FMHA scaffolding to the CK dispatcher framework, mirroring
GEMM's layered architecture. Seven new C++ runtime headers provide type
definitions (coexisting with upstream headers via __has_include,
requiring zero modifications to example/ck_tile/01_fmha/), a problem
builder with 18+ setters, Signature + Algorithm kernel key matching, a
virtual kernel instance, a DECL_FMHA_KERNEL_SET macro with wildcard
support and named tile/wave/warp setters, arch-aware registry with JSON
export, and a dispatcher with seqtune-aware selection, configurable
timing, and multi-stage execution plans for split-KV (two-stage) and
backward (three-stage). The codegen pipeline is driven by a
fmha_arch_specs.json capturing per-arch tile tables and pipeline
constraints for five architectures (gfx90a/942/950/1100/1201), migrated
from hardcoded logic in 01_fmha/codegen/, with supporting modules for
C++ symbol mappings, validation rules, and named receipt profiles
(ck_default, flash, pytorch, aiter, fp32, fp8). Python integration
(fmha_utils.py) mirrors the C++ layer with JIT compilation, parallel
multi-kernel builds, HIP memory management via ctypes, tolerance-based
validation, and a NumPy CPU reference with GQA support. Twenty-seven C++
and thirty-two Python examples cover the full feature surface — forward,
split-KV, masks, bias, dropout, GQA, backward, append-KV, batch prefill,
fp8, logits soft cap, sink tokens, and parameter sweeps — all
JIT-compiled on the fly.

## Test Plan

Seven test files cover the runtime types, codegen, and end-to-end
correctness. C++ unit tests validate the problem builder, dispatcher
planning (single-stage for forward/paged-KV/append-KV; multi-stage for
split-KV and backward), registry operations, and the kernel-set
declaration macro. Python unit tests verify codegen emission, profile
filtering, and 15 validation rules for masks, hdim constraints, and
pipeline requirements. GPU execution validation in 01_basic_fmha
--validate reports zero errors across 65,536 elements with max absolute
error of 7.29e-05. A gold-standard parity suite (test_fmha_parity.py)
runs 14 configurations through both the upstream tile_example_fmha_fwd
and the dispatcher, comparing exit codes to confirm behavioral parity —
all 14 match.

## Test Result

The C++ smoke test builds and passes all 9 compiled examples, and a
Python JIT sweep (29_sweep_seqlen.py) passes 7/7 configurations reaching
up to 375 TFLOPS at seqlen 2048.

eb7cb6302d [rocm-libraries] ROCm/rocm-libraries#6528 (commit aa81df5)
[CK][CK_TILE] Fix dispatcher cpp tests - registry key mismatch and string assertions (#6528)

## Motivation

CPP tests in dispatcher were failing due to a mismatch in registry key
and string representation.

## Technical Details
Bug 1 - Registry key mismatch: The registry stored kernels using
get_name() but lookups used encode_identifier(), causing all registry
lookups to fail. Fixed by changing registry.cpp:58 to use
encode_identifier() for storage.
Bug 2 - String representation changes: Tests checked for
"persist"/"nopers" substrings, but the code emits "True"/"False". Fixed
by replacing brittle substring checks with comparison-based assertions
in test_kernel_key.cpp and test_kernel_key_extended.cpp.

## Test Plan

Tested with CPP tests in dispatcher

## Test Result

Validation: All three core cpp tests now pass:
  - test_kernel_key - 6/6 tests passing
  - test_kernel_key_extended - 25/25 tests passing
  - test_registry - 8/8 tests passing

[CK][CK_TILE] Fix library caching bug in gemm dispatcher (#6445)

## Motivation

setup_gemm_dispatcher() was rebuilding libraries on every call instead
of reusing cached libraries.

**Root Cause**:
1. Library names only included dtype+layout, causing different
tile/wave/warp configs to overwrite each other
2. No cache checking - always loaded default library, detected mismatch,
then rebuilt

## Technical Details

**Solution**:
1. Complete library naming with all distinguishing parameters:
libdispatcher_gemm_{dtype}_{layout}_{tile}_{wave}_{warp}_{pipeline}_{epilogue}_{scheduler}.so

2. Cache checking before rebuild:
   - Check if library for exact config already exists
   - Reuse if found (500x faster: 0.02s vs 10s)
   - Only rebuild when no cached library exists

3. Better error handling for kernel generation failures

Files Changed:
- dispatcher/python/ctypes_utils.py
- dispatcher/tests/test_library_caching.py (new unit test)

## Test Plan

Use `dispatcher/tests/test_library_caching.py ` to ensure that libraries
are cached and only rebuilt if they are not present in build directory

1. **test_01_unique_library_naming** - Library names include all
parameters (dtype, layout, tile, wave, warp, pipeline, epilogue,
scheduler)
2. **test_02_library_build_and_cache** - Libraries are built once and
then cached for reuse
3. **test_03_different_configs_different_libraries** - Different configs
create different library files
4. **test_04_cache_message_verification** - Cache hit messages are
logged correctly
5. **test_05_code_fix_verification** - Code changes are present in
ctypes_utils.py

## Test Result
All the test above passed.

[CK] [CK_Tile] Add GroupConv to Kernel Dispatcher (#5168)

## Motivation

This PR adds CK Tile group convolution (forward, backward-data,
backward-weight) support to the kernel dispatcher, matching and unifying
with the existing dispatcher GEMM infrastructure in architecture and
usability. The dispatcher provides a unified kernel dispatch system with
both C++ and Python frontends, and until now only supported GEMM
operations. This PR enables framework integrators to use the same
declarative kernel workflow for convolutions as they do for GEMM:
declare kernels, build a registry JIT, select kernels within the
registry at runtime, and dispatch to GPU. Future PRs will include
runtime kernel selection heuristics for autotuning of kernel parameters
based on (problem, hardware arch).

## Technical Details

Grouped convolution support has been added to the CK Tile Dispatcher
with generated_conv_backend.hpp enabling dispatcher.run(in, wei, out,
problem) for all 6 conv variants (fwd/bwdd/bwdw x 2D/3D), runtime
heuristic kernel selection, and GroupedConvKernelKey with full
ConvConfigBase fields. Python side adds parallel JIT via
registry.build(max_workers) and heuristic registry.select(). Includes 7
C++ and 6 Python examples covering all directions with CPU reference
validation, and shared infrastructure improvements (BaseRegistry CRTP,
structured exceptions). As a sanity check, JIT compile times for a
single kernel remains the same and for multiple kernels there is better
parallelism:
Kernels | 1 worker | 8 workers
1 | 7.7 s | 7.7 s
2 | 15.9 s | 8.2 s
4 | 33.4 s | 9.7 s
6 | 52.3 s | 10.2 s

## Test Plan

145 ephemeral unit tests have been added to test basic functionality.
All 30 examples/integration tests run end-to-end on gfx950 (MI350): 7
C++ conv, 7 C++ GEMM, 6 Python conv, 10 Python GEMM. CPU reference
validation for forward, backward-data, and backward-weight (2D) in both
C++ and Python examples pass.

## Test Result

30 examples pass. Peak performance: 132 TFLOPS (Batch-32 forward 56x56),
53 TFLOPS (pointwise 1x1). CPU reference accuracy: max_abs_diff < 0.002
for all directions (fp16 vs fp32 reference).
