[ck] Enforce ASCII-only C/C++ sources for hipRTC
compatibility (#7829)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
## Summary
CK source files must be compilable via **hipRTC (HIP runtime
compilation)**, whose preprocessor does not accept non-ASCII bytes
anywhere in a translation unit — **including in comments**. Bytes that
are harmless under `hipcc` (em-dashes, smart quotes, multiplication
signs, Greek letters, box-drawing glyphs, etc.) cause hipRTC to fail at
preprocessing time. These regularly leak in via LLM-assisted authoring
or copy/paste from formatted documents and silently break hipRTC paths
that are not exercised by the default `hipcc`-based build matrix.
This PR (a) cleans every existing violation (53 files) and (b) adds a
pre-checkin gate so new violations are rejected before merge.
## File extensions covered
Both the cleanup scan and the new Jenkins enforcement stage use the same
predicate:
```
*.h *.hpp *.cpp *.h.in *.hpp.in *.cpp.in *.inc *.cl
```
(excluding `*/build/*` and `*/include/rapidjson/*`). This is a strict
superset of the existing `Clang Format` stage's predicate — `*.inc` is
added so test-fixture include files are also gated. The local pre-commit
hook's `c++/inc` type filter covers the same set.
## Why no enforcement today
CK is opted out of the rocm-libraries root `.pre-commit-config.yaml`, so
the existing `pre-commit` workflow doesn't touch CK. The local CK
`.pre-commit-config.yaml` only runs for developers who installed hooks.
The **authoritative gate is therefore the new Jenkins stage** in this
PR; the local hook is convenience.
## Commit layout (bisect-friendly)
1. `79798aa6261` — **`[ck] Convert reflect/ rendering to ASCII for
hipRTC compatibility`**
Behavior change, isolated. `TreeFormatter` swaps `├─ / └─ / │ ` for `|-
/ +- / | ` (3-col width preserved so alignment is unchanged).
`conv_description.hpp` swaps `×` for `x` as the dimension separator.
`test_conv_description.cpp` expected strings updated in lockstep so the
snapshot test stays green. This is the only commit in the series with
observable runtime impact.
2. `738fdb0d81c` — **`[ck] Strip non-ASCII bytes from C++ sources for
hipRTC compatibility`**
Mechanical text cleanup across 53 files. Replacements happen in comments
or in `std::cout` strings that are not asserted on by any test. None of
the 174 `.inc` files in the tree required edits, but they were in the
scan's predicate so the enforcement stage's predicate is a superset of
what was scanned. Full replacement table in the commit message.
3. `1d7cd8ba235` — **`[ck] Enforce ASCII-only C/C++ sources for hipRTC
compatibility`**
- New `projects/composablekernel/script/check_ascii_only.sh` (modeled on
`check_copyright_year.sh`).
- New entry in `projects/composablekernel/.pre-commit-config.yaml` under
the local-hooks block (`types_or: [c++, inc]`).
- New `ASCII Only Check` parallel stage in
`projects/composablekernel/Jenkinsfile`'s `Static checks` block,
mirroring the existing `Clang Format` stage but with `*.inc` added to
the find predicate. Always-on, no `RUN_CPPCHECK` gate.
The tree is buildable at every commit boundary. Commit 1 leaves 50 known
violations; commit 2 leaves 0; commit 3 wires the gate.
## Demo
Script output on a synthesized violation:
```
$ printf '// em-dash test \xe2\x80\x94 here\n' > /tmp/bad.cpp
$ projects/composablekernel/script/check_ascii_only.sh /tmp/bad.cpp
ERROR: /tmp/bad.cpp contains non-ASCII bytes:
1:// em-dash test — here
Fix: replace with ASCII (em-dash -> --, smart quotes -> ", arrows -> ->, etc.)
$ echo $?
1
```
Full repo scan after the cleanup commits (note the `-name '*.inc'`
clause):
```
$ cd projects/composablekernel && find . -type f \( -name '*.h' -o -name '*.hpp' -o -name '*.cpp' \
-o -name '*.h.in' -o -name '*.hpp.in' -o -name '*.cpp.in' -o -name '*.inc' -o -name '*.cl' \) \
-not -path '*/build/*' -not -path '*/include/rapidjson/*' -print0 \
| xargs -0 -P 8 -n 64 script/check_ascii_only.sh
$ echo $?
0
```
## Test plan
- [ ] Jenkins PR build: confirm new `Static checks -> ASCII Only Check`
stage runs green over the full predicate (incl. `*.inc`) and existing
`Clang Format` stage is unaffected.
- [ ] `test_conv_description` passes against the ASCII tree-formatter
output (touched in commit 1).
- [ ] Local: `pre-commit run ascii-only-checker --all-files` runs
cleanly after installing CK pre-commit hooks via
`script/install_precommit.sh`.
- [ ] Manually inject a non-ASCII byte in any `.cpp/.hpp/.inc` file,
push: confirm Jenkins fails the new stage with a clear error.
- [ ] Spot-check a representative subset of touched files under hipRTC
compilation to confirm no remaining hipRTC-blocking content (optional,
since the static byte check is a sufficient condition for hipRTC
preprocessor acceptance on this dimension).

Replace nested static_for lambdas with compile-time search
helper (#6696)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
## Summary
- Add `sequence_find_value` and `find_in_tuple_of_sequences`
compile-time search helpers with O(1) template depth
- Replace nested `static_for` lambdas in
`TensorDescriptor::GetTransformAndItsUpperDimension` and
`InitializeElementSize`
- Apply same optimizations to `TensorAdaptor`
Supersedes #4287. Conflict-resolved rebase of
ROCm/composable_kernel#3600 onto current develop.
## Motivation
The `TensorDescriptor` and `TensorAdaptor` classes had excessive
template instantiation from:
1. Nested `static_for` loops with lambdas creating unique closure types
at every call site
2. `generate_tuple` with lambdas causing per-type instantiation overhead
The new helpers use constexpr array lookup and pack expansion instead of
recursive template patterns, achieving O(1) template depth.
## Results (`example_grouped_conv_fwd_xdl_fp16`, n=10, interleaved,
`-j1`, `-ftime-trace`)
| TU | Baseline (mean) | New (mean) | Delta | Wilcoxon p | Mann-Whitney
p |
|----|-----------------|------------|-------|-----------|---------------|
| `grouped_conv_fwd_xdl_fp16` (host) | 14,886 ms | 13,353 ms |
**-10.3%** | **0.002** | **0.0002** |
| `grouped_conv_fwd_xdl_fp16` (device) | 27,762 ms | 25,629 ms |
**-7.7%** | **0.002** | **0.0002** |
| **Total (all TUs)** | **57,732 ms** | **54,030 ms** | **-6.4%** | | |
Unrelated TUs (`device_memory`, `host_tensor`, `convolution_parameter`)
show no significant difference (p > 0.3), serving as negative controls.
### Methodology
- 10 interleaved runs (baseline₁, new₁, baseline₂, new₂, ...) on the
same node to eliminate ordering/warmup bias
- Wilcoxon signed-rank test (paired, non-parametric) and Mann-Whitney U
test (unpaired)
- Built with patched clang (LLVM 22) on ctr2-alola-compile-11, `-j1` for
accurate per-TU timing
- Raw data available in Slurm job 275230 results
## Test plan
- [x] 11 unit tests added (5 for `sequence_find_value`, 6 for
`find_in_tuple_of_sequences`)
- [x] Compile-time benchmark with statistical significance (p < 0.01)
- [ ] Full CI
Tracking issue: #4229
Add generate_identity_sequences helper and replace lambdas with named functors (#4828)
## Summary
- Add `generate_identity_sequences<N>()` helper that returns
`Tuple<Sequence<0>, Sequence<1>, ..., Sequence<N-1>>`
- Replace lambdas with named functors in `transform_tensor_descriptor`
- Add `unpack_and_merge_sequences` helper functor
- Reduces `transform_tensor_descriptor` instantiations from 388 to 32
(92% reduction)
## Motivation
Multiple call sites use `generate_tuple([](auto i) { return
Sequence<i>{}; }, Number<N>{})` pattern. A named helper reduces lambda
instantiations.
Additionally, each lambda in `transform_tensor_descriptor` creates a
unique closure type, causing the function to be instantiated separately
for every call site. Named functors share a single type, so the compiler
reuses the same instantiation.
## Changes
### Part 1: generate_identity_sequences helper
- Replaces common lambda pattern for generating identity sequences
- Each lambda expression creates a unique closure type, causing separate
template instantiations at every call site
- Named helper shares a single type across all uses
### Part 2: Named functors in transform_tensor_descriptor
- Add `unpack_and_merge_sequences` helper to replace lambda in
`GetNumOfHiddenDimension`
- Use `generate_identity_sequences` in `matrix_padder.hpp`
## Test Plan
- [x] Added 7 unit tests:
- 4 tests for `generate_identity_sequences`
- 3 tests for `unpack_and_merge_sequences`
- [ ] Waiting for full CI
