[CK_TILE] Stream-K XCD remapping (#4279)

## Proposed changes

This PR adds support for XCD remapping as detailed in this
[document](https://amdcloud.sharepoint.com/:w:/r/sites/ComposableKernels/Shared%20Documents/Stream-K/Design%20Docs/XCD%20Mapping.docx?d=w2df1b0737dc54614970d99a2e26022d1&csf=1&web=1&e=mLVN4A).
On gfx942, workgroups are typically scheduled round-robin across XCDs,
which can lead to poor locality. We will use a remapping to assign
workgroups to contiguous tiles in the XCDs improving the locality and
the cache hit rate. This is done through a function that computes this
contiguous mapping from this
[PR](https://github.com/ROCm/composable_kernel/pull/3161), which we have
added to the StreamKTilePartitioner. This will require minimal changes
to the Stream-K algorithm, only requiring a remap at the time the
workgroups are partitioned. Through this approach we can improve the
data locality by improving cache hits therefore closing performance gaps
that are seen with the default scheduling. There have been unit tests
added to verify the function in isolation. This is an optimization that
is not specialized to just Stream-K GEMM and can be applied across GEMM.

Note: This only applies to the gfx942 as they introduce the XCDs.

e02c566795 [rocm-libraries] ROCm/rocm-libraries#7612 (commit 5427d24)
[CK] upgrade CI to rocm7.13 as default compiler (#7612)

## Motivation

Upgrade the default docker and compiler version in CI to rocm7.13.
In order to pass all the checks I had to also clean up a lot of
non-ascii characters in the source code comments and modify a couple of
tests that were affected by a new compiler logic.

d219484b46 [rocm-libraries] ROCm/rocm-libraries#5393 (commit d51b649)
[CK Tile] StreamK support for Bwd Weight grouped convolutions (#5393)

## Motivation

Add StreamK work distribution to the CK Tile grouped convolution
backward weight kernel. Split-K divides the K-dimension uniformly across
a fixed `k_batch`, which causes load imbalance when the number of output
tiles doesn't evenly fill the GPU. StreamK distributes total
K-iterations evenly across workgroups, improving utilization on these
shapes.

## Technical Details

StreamK is added as an `if constexpr` branch in the existing kernel,
selected by the `TilePartitioner_` template parameter. Two reduction
strategies are supported:
- **Linear**: tile-starter sequentially accumulates partials from
contributing CTAs
- **Tree**: pairwise binary tree reduction (O(log n) depth, faster for
many contributors)

Both persistent and non-persistent data-parallel (DP) sections are
supported.

Key changes:
- `grouped_convolution_backward_weight_kernel.hpp`: StreamK execution
path with `RunStreamK`/`RunStreamKLoop`, partial store/load via
workspace, flag-based cross-CTA synchronization,
`GridSize`/`MakeKernelArgs`/`GetWorkSpaceSize` extensions
- `streamk_common.hpp`: Shared `StreamKReductionOps` (reduction helpers)
and `StreamKDispatch` (persistent/non-persistent DP dispatch), used by
both GEMM and Conv StreamK kernels
- `streamk_gemm_kernel.hpp`: Refactored to use shared helpers
- Merged split-K and StreamK example invokers via `PartitionerPolicy`
template parameter
- StreamK example binary with `--streamk_reduction=linear|tree` and
`--streamk_persistent=0|1`
- CK Builder integration: `SpecifiesStreamK` concept,
`TilePartitionerType` factory helper, `InstanceTraits` with StreamK
fields
- 30 tests: host-side, GPU end-to-end (Linear + Tree + Persistent DP),
negative, builder regression

### Performance (MI355X, gfx950)

Speedup relative to best split-K (sweep over k_batch={1,2,4,8,16,32}):

| Shape | 16x64 tiles | | 128x128 tiles | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| | Split-K | StreamK | Split-K | StreamK |
| 1x1 128x128 N=32 28x28 | 1.00x | 0.54x | 1.00x | 0.81x |
| 3x3 128x128 N=32 14x14 | 1.00x | 0.59x | 1.00x | 0.62x |
| 1x1 256x64 N=32 56x56 | 1.00x | 0.83x | 1.00x | 1.83x |
| 3x3 512x512 N=2 7x7 | 1.00x | 1.12x | 1.00x | 0.62x |
| 1x1 1024x1024 N=4 7x7 | 1.00x | 1.09x | 1.00x | 0.60x |
| 3x3 128x128 N=32 28x28 | 1.00x | 0.44x | 1.00x | 0.96x |
| 3x3 256x256 N=32 14x14 | 1.00x | 0.67x | 1.00x | 0.93x |
| 3x3 512x512 N=32 7x7 | 1.00x | 0.98x | 1.00x | 1.16x |

StreamK's value depends on tile config: with larger tiles (fewer output
tiles), StreamK delivers up to 1.83x speedup on bottleneck shapes and up
to 1.16x on typical large-channel convolutions. Tree reduction
consistently outperforms Linear when multiple CTAs contribute to the
same tile (up to 2.87x faster), due to O(log n) reduction depth vs O(n)
sequential accumulation. The table reports the best of Linear and Tree
for each shape.

## Test Plan

```bash
ninja -C build test_ck_tile_grouped_conv_bwd_weight_streamk
./build/bin/test_ck_tile_grouped_conv_bwd_weight_streamk

# Builder tests (requires CK_EXPERIMENTAL_BUILDER=ON)
ninja -C build check-builder
```

30 tests covering:
- Host-side: type traits, kernel args construction, grid size, workspace
size
- GPU end-to-end (Linear + Tree): small/medium shapes, multi-group,
stride>1, pure-DP degeneration, single-tile all-SK, large GemmK, higher
occupancy
- Persistent DP: Linear + Tree with persistent data-parallel dispatch
- Negative: `IsSupportedArgument` rejects unaligned K and C
- Builder: Create (instance string validation) + Execution (reference
comparison) + instance string regression

## Test Result

All 30 conv StreamK tests pass on MI355X (gfx950). 64/64 GEMM StreamK
tests pass. Full `check-builder` suite passes. Tolerances computed
dynamically using `calculate_rtol_atol` pattern (fp16 ULP-aware).

40552f0ec6 [rocm-libraries] ROCm/rocm-libraries#4756 (commit 79bc2ca)
[CK_TILE] Update Stream-K Reduction Strategy Enum (#4756)

## Motivation

Currently, Stream-K has 3 reduction options: 1) atomics, 2) The
reduction described in the Stream-K paper, and 3) a tree reduction. The
reduction strategy described in the original Stream-K paper has the
starting workgroup of each tile sequentially accumulating partial
results of other contributing workgroups in the tile, which requires a
linear number of steps. Hence, for clarity, this works updates the
naming of the `StreamKReductionStrategy` enum members to better describe
the existing reduction strategy options.

## Technical Details

Prior to this change, the enum is as follows:
```cpp
enum StreamKReductionStrategy : uint32_t
{
    Atomic        = 0u,
    Reduction     = 1u,
    TreeReduction = 2u
};
```
But, the distinction between `Reduction` and `TreeReduction` is not very
clear and has some redundancy.
Hence, the updated enum is as follows:
```cpp
enum StreamKReductionStrategy : uint32_t
{
    Atomic = 0u,
    Linear = 1u,
    Tree   = 2u
};
```
All references to `StreamKReductionStrategy` were updated to reflect
this change.
## Test Plan

No new functionality was added, so no new tests were added; I just
validated existing tests and examples.

## Test Result

All tests passed locally.

22b945e06e [CK_TILE] Stream-K Tree Reduction and Cache Skipping Integration (#3371)
* CK Tile Stream-K Tree Reduction

This change adds the first implementation of the Stream-K tree reduction
strategy into CK Tile. The tree reduction reduces the the number of
steps for accumulating results for a tile from O(N) to O(logN) where N
is the number of workgroups contributing to a C tile.

Additionally, in the original non-atomic reduction strategy, atomics
were used to set the flags buffer and to read from the flags buffer.
Howeover, through investigation with the tree reduciton, atomics with
default (relaxed) semantics were not enough to guarantee workgroups
would not read stale data, leading to incorrect results. Stronger
acquire/release memory orderings are too expensive. So, this change
also eliminates the use of atomics for setting the flags. Instead, we
leverage cache modifiers (e.g., GLC) to avoid writing to cache, thereby
avoiding the use of atomics.

Prelimiary tests were also added for the normal reduction and tree
reduction. More will be added in a future PR via tile engine.

* Move Stream-K kernel files to a subdirectory

* Cleanup Code Style & Handle Unsupported Reductions

This change makes the following small changes:
- Add an explicit else block for unimplemented reduction strategies
- Clarify type of sk_flags_ptr via auto*
- Add description for extra_iters_before_me variable

* Run new copyright script on new files

2e4b8a8fc4 [CK_TILE] Remove Old CK Tile Stream-K Artifacts (#3202)
* Remove old CK Tile Stream-K implementation

The original CK Stream-K implementation was based on old CK's Stream-K
block to C tile map. However, this implementation did not align with the
original Stream-K paper. Thus, we implemented a new tile partitioner and
associated Stream-K kernel, which was placed in the reboot namespace.

Now that the new Stream-K implementation is ready, this change removes
all artifacts of the old implementation. Specifically, the following
changes were made:
- Removes old Stream-K tile partitioner from CK Tile
- Removes the reboot namespace such that the new implementation resides
  in the ck_tile namespace only.
- Adds tests for bf8 and fp8 using the new implementation
- Removes tests for the old implementation
- Remove the v2 suffix from the new CK Tile Tile Partitioner
derived classes.
- Updates Stream-K Kernel ops file to use /** commenting style.

* Remove v2 from tile partitioner validation function names

352dee5225 Fix CK Tile Stream-K BF16 Validation Errors (#3039)
Prior to this change, the number of accumulations passed into
calculate_rtol_atol was 1. That said, in most cases, this is not correct
when there are multiple workgroups contributing to the same macro tile
in C.

This change ensures uses the function estimate_num_wgs_per_tile, which
was extracted into a common file and generalized, to estimate the number
of workgroups per macro tile. This estimate is passed into
calculate_rtol_atol to ensure we get a better relative and absolute
tolerance.
