## Summary
- PR #4837 added `MmaOpFamily OpFamily_` as a new template parameter to
`amdgcn_mma` and `MmaDefaultSelector`, but the MMA layout test (PR
#4495) was not updated to include it
- Add the missing `OpFamily_` parameter to all three `RegisterMapTraits`
partial specializations (gfx9, gfx11, gfx12) and all
`MmaDefaultSelector` usages
- Fixes build failure: `template argument for non-type template
parameter must be an expression`
## Test plan
- [x] Verified test compiles cleanly with ROCm 7.1.1 clang++ targeting
gfx90a
- [x] `test_amdgcn_mma_layout` gfx90a (MFMA): PASSED
- [x] `test_amdgcn_mma_layout` gfx1201 (WMMA): SKIPPED (no device)
- [x] `test_amdgcn_mma_layout` gfx1100 (WMMA): SKIPPED (no device)
- [x] CI validation on all GPU targets

## Motivation
Profiling with `-ftime-trace` on representative translation units (e.g.,
`device_grouped_conv2d_fwd_xdl_nhwgc_gkyxc_nhwgk_f16_comp_instance.cpp`)
revealed
that **92% of frontend time was spent in template instantiation**. The
primary
bottleneck was redundant instantiation of identical helper logic across
multiple
threadwise transfer class variants.
Each `ThreadwiseTensorSliceTransfer_v*` class independently contained
its own
copy of the same helper computations — serpentine traversal, coordinate
stepping, thread scratch descriptors, lambda-like functors, and
compile-time
constants — duplicated across 13 header files. When a typical GEMM or
convolution kernel TU includes blockwise operations (e.g.,
`blockwise_gemm_xdlops.hpp`), it pulls in multiple transfer variants
simultaneously, causing the compiler to instantiate the same helper
logic
multiple times with the same template arguments.
This was compounded by the helpers being defined as members of the outer
`ThreadwiseTensorSliceTransfer_v*` classes, which carry 14+ template
parameters.
Functions like `ComputeForwardSweep` depend only on their two argument
types,
but as inline members of the outer class, the compiler was forced to
create
separate instantiations for every unique combination of all outer
parameters
(data types, descriptors, vector widths, etc.) — even when most of those
parameters had no effect on the helper's output.
## Technical Details
### The Fix: Shared Helper Struct Hierarchy
Duplicated logic was extracted into a standalone helper hierarchy in
`threadwise_tensor_slice_transfer_util.hpp`:
```
ThreadwiseTransferHelper_Base (I0..I16, MoveSliceWindow, ComputeThreadScratchDescriptor,
| ComputeForwardSteps, ComputeBackwardSteps, MakeVectorContainerTuple)
+-- ThreadwiseTransferHelper_Serpentine (ComputeForwardSweep, ComputeMoveOnDim, ComputeDataIndex,
| ComputeCoordinateResetStep, VectorSizeLookupTable, VectorOffsetsLookupTable)
+-- ThreadwiseTransferHelper_SFC (ComputeSFCCoordinateResetStep)
```
Each helper method is now parameterized **only by what it actually
uses**:
- `ComputeForwardSweep(idx, lengths)` — parameterized only by the two
argument
types, not by `SrcData`, `DstData`, `SrcDesc`, etc.
- `ComputeForwardSteps(desc, scalar_per_access)` — parameterized only by
the
descriptor and access sequence types.
- `ComputeCoordinateResetStep<SliceLengths, VectorDim, ScalarPerVector,
DimAccessOrder>()` — parameterized only by the four values it actually
needs.
This reduces template instantiation work in two ways:
1. **Across different transfer variants** (v3r1 vs v3r2 vs v3r1_gather):
the
compiler reuses a single instantiation instead of creating one per
variant.
2. **Across different outer class instantiations** (fp16 vs bf16 vs
int8): the
compiler reuses the helper instantiation because the helper doesn't
depend
on the data type at all.
### Refactored Headers
**13 headers** now delegate to the shared helpers instead of duplicating
logic:
- Serpentine family: v3r1, v3r2, v3r1_gather, v3r1_dequant
- SFC family: v6r1, v6r1r2, v6r2, v6r3, v7r2, v7r3, v7r3_scatter
- Dead code removed: v4r1, v5r1
### Additional Fixes Found During Refactoring
- Two latent bugs in v3r2 (`forward_sweep` indexing,
`GetDstCoordinateResetStep` extraction)
- Dead `SrcCoordStep` variables in v4r1 and v5r1
- Unused `scale_element_op_` member in v3r1_dequant (restored with note)
### Net Code Change
+1,428 / -2,297 lines (~870 lines removed).
## Test Plan
### Unit Tests
28 host-side gtests in
`test/threadwise_transfer_helper/test_threadwise_transfer_helper.cpp`
covering the full helper hierarchy:
| Suite | Tests | What is verified |
|-------|-------|------------------|
| ThreadwiseTransferHelperBase | 6 | Compile-time constants,
inheritance, `MoveSliceWindow` with `ResetCoordinateAfterRun` true/false
in 2D and 3D |
| ThreadwiseTransferHelperSerpentine | 9 | `ComputeForwardSweep`
(even/odd row, 1D), `ComputeMoveOnDim` (inner complete/incomplete),
`ComputeDataIndex`, `ComputeCoordinateResetStep`,
`VectorSizeLookupTable`, `VectorOffsetsLookupTable` |
| ThreadwiseTransferHelperSFC | 6 | `ComputeSFCCoordinateResetStep` —
single access, 2D row-major, 2D column-major, 3D batch, even/odd inner
access counts |
| ThreadwiseTransferHelperInheritance | 3 | Serpentine and SFC derive
from Base, are not related to each other |
| DetailFunctors | 4 | `lambda_scalar_per_access`,
`lambda_scalar_step_in_vector`,
`lambda_scalar_per_access_for_src_and_dst` (same dim, different dims) |
### Semantic Equivalence
GPU ISA comparison using `--cuda-device-only -S` confirmed identical
assembly
output (modulo `__hip_cuid_*` metadata) between baseline and refactored
code.
## Test Results
All measurements on a 384-core machine, `-j64`, freshly rebooted,
near-idle.
### Targeted Builds (affected targets only)
| Target | Baseline | Refactored | Wall-clock Delta | CPU Delta |
|--------|----------|------------|-----------------|-----------|
| `device_grouped_conv2d_fwd_instance` (160 TUs) | 7m 37s / 189m CPU |
6m 53s / 161m CPU | **-9.7%** | **-14.9%** |
| `device_grouped_conv3d_fwd_instance` (185 TUs) | 9m 49s / 202m CPU |
6m 42s / 182m CPU | **-31.8%** | **-10.0%** |
| **Combined** | **17m 27s / 392m CPU** | **13m 35s / 344m CPU** |
**-22.2%** | **-12.4%** |
### Full Project Build (8,243 targets)
| Metric | Baseline | Refactored | Delta |
|--------|----------|------------|-------|
| Wall-clock | 103m 38s | 111m 56s | +8.0%* |
| CPU time | 4705m 7s | 4648m 17s | **-1.2%** |
\*Wall-clock inflated by external load spike during refactored build
(load 90 vs 66). CPU time is the reliable metric.
### Context
~15% of all build targets (1,262 / 8,243) transitively include the
modified
headers. These are primarily GEMM and convolution kernel instantiations
— the
core compute workloads. The 12-15% CPU savings on affected targets is
diluted
to 1.2% across the full project because 85% of targets are unaffected.

## Motivation
Currently, the test suite for `amdgcn_mma` focuses on the design (e.g.
choosing the correct specialization based on SFINAE) and a single live
test that checks if selected MmaOp runs. This PR adds a simplified GEMM
test kernel that checks the exact layout of the selected MmaOp.
## Technical Details
The test in `test_amdgcn_mma_layout.cpp` launches MxKxN test cases (one
per block), where each case:
1. Constructs A and B tensors on a device with a single 1 at A(m,k) and
B(k,n) (rest is all 0s)
2. Executes the MMA intrinsic.
3. Checks if C has the "1" on the excpeted position.
For the MMA instrinsic, it pulls a Mma op from amdgcn_mma specialization
based on a given input (tile dimension, data types).
Note 1: As a helper, in `test_amdgcn_mma_layout_util.hpp` we add
register map for a given amdgcn_mma specialization. Register mapping is
currently based on the `tile_distribution_encoding`.
Note 2: Everything is added to the test suite, no additions to the
actual `amdgcn_mma` structs. All the extra information that is needed,
but not yet provided by `amdgcn_mma` structs, is added as a boilerplate
to the header. TODO: Rebase this PR on top of the `amdgcn_mma` refactor
or clean it up after merge.
## Test Plan
This PR solely adds a new test to the existing code.
## Test Result
Tests pass.

## Motivation
The existing unification work supports DENSE intrinsics. In this PR we
enable support for SPARSE as well as SCALE intrinsics and add an example
SPARSE implementation.
## Technical Details
Mostly trivial changes. One framework change is that the desired
`MmaOpFamily` is passed to the `MmaDefaultSelector`. As my relevant
commit explains, we do not support a fallback family at the moment, but
it is something we can consider.
## Test Plan
Added a new test for the relevant sparse specializations.
## Test Result
Test should pass.

## Motivation
Still addressing errors that are blocking the merge of TheRock PR:
https://github.com/ROCm/TheRock/actions/runs/22545831304/job/65308264096?pr=3382
## Technical Details
1. There are multiple fmha python scripts that are writing native paths
which are confusing cmake. I addressed one of these in an earlier PR
https://github.com/ROCm/rocm-libraries/pull/4812 and now I'm addressing
more that are exposed with gfx1200 target:
```

2. In the following compiler error we see gemm_prec_str<ADataType,
BDataType> being passed as a function to concat(...), instead of being
evaluated with the parenthesis operator(), i.e.,
gemm_prec_str<ADataType, BDataType>(). There are multiples instances of
this, I wonder what non-msvc compilers do here:
```

```
There are plenty of other places where we use gemm_prec_str with the
operator(), so I'm pretty sure these were just typos...but I'd like some
eyes on it.
3. There are 2 tests that fail to build on Windows, which I've excluded
from the build but will open bug tickets for:
1. gemm_weight_preshuffle
2. grouped_gemm_preshuffle

## Proposed changes
Adds operation-specific umbrella test targets for CK Tile to enable
running all tests for a specific operation without running the entire
test suite. This improves the development workflow by allowing faster
iteration when working on specific operations.
## Motivation
Previously, developers working on CK Tile operations could only:
- Run individual test executables one at a time
- Run global labels (, , ) which test the entire codebase
- Build all tests for an operation but had no simple way to run them all
This made it cumbersome to validate changes to a specific operation
(e.g., GEMM quantization) without either running tests individually or
running the entire test suite.
### Documentation
- - Comprehensive testing guide with usage examples and implementation
details
## Usage Examples

## Motivation
In CK Tile Stream-K, kernels using one of two non-atomic reduction
strategies (i.e., linear, tree) have high register spill count, with the
tree reduction generally being worse. These changes act a first step to
help decrease the register spill count.
## Technical Details
### Problem 1: Unvectorized access to partials
In both the linear and tree reductions, workgroups write partials
results to a global buffer; another workgroup will later read this data.
When the initial logic to support reading and writing to the partials
buffer was added (see
https://github.com/ROCm/composable_kernel/pull/3107), the tile
distribution encoding used to read from and write to partials matches
the register layout for the accumulator of the mfma instruction used for
the kernel. Since we do not currently use the transposed register layout
for the accumulator, we end with an encoding that is not optimized for
writing to HBM.
For example: Consider the register layout of the
`v_mfma_f32_16x16x32_fp8_fp8` instruction.
```bash
./matrix_calculator.py --architecture gfx942 --instruction v_mfma_f32_16x16x32_fp8_fp8 --register-layout --C-matrix
```
<img width="1113" height="537" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/afc8f556-08cc-4224-a6e5-b5edabc5fc02"
/>
The above shows that threads are responsible for consecutive elements
down a column of the C tile. If we use this distribution to read and
write to partials with C in row major, then threads are unable to
perform vectorized reads and writes. Note: thread 0 is shown in red and
thread 1 is shown in green.
Since the C-shuffle Epilogue only supports C in row major, reading and
writing to partials is highly unoptimized.
### Problem 2: Missed opportunity for SPGR use in tree reduction loop
Since the reduction occurs between workgroups, all threads in the
workgroup follow the same execution paths in the tree reduction logic,
hence various variables should be using SGPRs, but they are not.
### Implemented Solutions
1. Add a new tile distribution encoding that is optimized for accessing
partials in HBM. This encoding does not change the data assignment to
threads, it merely changes the addresses to which they write/read in the
partials buffer. For example, continuing with the
`v_mfma_f32_16x16x32_fp8_fp8` instruction, the new encoding would result
in threads writing in the following layout:
<img width="517" height="342" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/93b5e0ea-bafc-47b8-89bb-c40ba75cb202"
/>
This layout ensures that each thread writes along a row, enabling
`buffer_{store|load}_dwordx4` instructions (i.e., vectorized accesses).
This helps reduce register usage due to requiring fewer offset
calculations.
2. To force SGPR usage in the tree reduction loop, I make use of CK
Tile's `amd_wave_read_first_lane` which is a wrapper around
`__builtin_amdgcn_readfirstlane`. This helps reduce VGPR spills in the
tree reduction.
_These changes do not fully eliminate register spills. Future work will
aim to further reduce spills. But these changes make good progress._
## Test Plan
Added tests for different warp tile sizes to validate that the new
encoding works with different `WarpGemm` variants.
## Test Result
All tests pass locally on all gfx9 architectures.
Some results for decreases in register spills on gfx942: (BL = baseline)

## Summary
The test was using LDS distribution to create the accumulator tile, but
CShuffleEpilogue expects the GEMM accumulator distribution that
BlockGemm produces. This mismatch caused incorrect data permutation.
## Changes
- Use WarpGemmDispatcher to get correct accumulator distribution
encoding
- Load test input from host-initialized global memory for deterministic
verification
- Shard tests by data type (FP16, FP8) with gfx950-specific FP8 tests
- Extract scale tests into separate target for better organization
- Implement exact permutation verification (all unique values appear
once)
- Reduce tile size from 256x256 to 128x128 to fit in unique fp16 range
- Add parameterized test configurations for various warp layouts and
MFMA types
## Test plan
- [x] Run new cshuffle epilogue tests

## 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
## Related PRs
This PR merges the functionality from:

## Changes
### Split-K support in `gemm_quant_kernel.hpp`
- **`SplitKBatchOffset`**: Added `aq_group_offset` and
`aq_k_split_offset` fields (mirroring the existing `bq_*` fields for B)
to track each split-K batch's position within the AQ scale tensor. For
`ABQuantGrouped`, both offsets are computed from `k_id * KRead` divided
by `AQuantGroupSize::kK`.
- **`MakeAQBlockWindow`**: Added an `aq_group_offset` parameter
(defaulting to 0 for non-split-K paths) so the AQ tensor view's K-group
dimension reflects only the remaining K-groups from the split-K offset,
consistent with how `MakeBQBlockWindow` handles the BQ tensor.
- **`RunGemm`**: Threads the `aq_k_split_offset` through to
`MakeAQBlockWindow` when in split-K mode.
### Constraints in `IsSupportedArgument()`
Four constraints gate split-K (`k_batch > 1`) for ABQuantGrouped:
1. **Mode check** — split-K is only allowed for `BQuantGrouped` (no
preshuffle) or `ABQuantGrouped` (no `APreshuffleQuant`). Any other quant
mode with `k_batch > 1` returns `false`.
2. **B quant group alignment** — `KRead` (per-batch K slice) must be
divisible by `BQuantGroupSize::kK`. Each batch must operate on complete
B quantization groups; a partial group would require splitting a scale
value across batches.
3. **A quant group alignment** (new, ABQuantGrouped only) — `KRead` must
also be divisible by `AQuantGroupSize::kK` for the same reason applied
to the AQ scale tensor.
4. **Minimum 2 K-tile iterations per batch** (new) — The
software-pipelined GEMM kernels (CompV3 family) prefetch one tile ahead,
so they require `per_batch_num_loop = KRead / KPerBlock >= 2`. When
`KRead == KPerBlock` (i.e. each batch is exactly one tile), the prefetch
reads into the next batch's memory region and produces incorrect
results. Configurations where `K == k_batch * KPerBlock` are therefore
rejected.
### Example update (`run_gemm_quant_example.inc`)
Updated the comment above the `IsSupportedArgument` call to document
that split-K is now supported for both `BQuantGrouped` (no preshuffle)
and `ABQuantGrouped` (no `APreshuffleQuant`).
## Unit Tests
Two new test files covering decode and prefill tile shapes across a
range of `k_batch` values (2–8), data types (FP8, BF8), and quantization
group sizes (1×1×128 and 1×128×128 for B):
- `test_gemm_quant_abquant_splitk_decode.cpp` — uses the decode tile
shape (M=16, N=64, K_tile=256)
- `test_gemm_quant_abquant_splitk_prefill.cpp` — uses the prefill tile
shape (M=128, N=128, K_tile=128)
Each test calls `run_test_with_validation` which runs the kernel and
checks correctness against a CPU reference. Configurations excluded from
tests are annotated with comments explaining which constraint they
violate (typically the `per_batch_num_loop >= 2` requirement).

## Motivation
When we started the RDNA4 support, the XDL instances were not supporting
WMMA instructions, so we duplicated some tests.
In this issue, we simplified most of the duplicated test files into
common test files.
## Technical Details
The following tests were unified:
- `batched_gemm`
- `batched_gemm_gemm`
- `gemm_add`
- `gemm_universal`
- `grouped_convnd_bwd_data`
The following tests were duplicated exactly, and copied into two files
with `_xdl` and `_wmma` suffixes. Now they are unified in one single
file without suffix:
- `gemm_multi_abd`
- `gemm_b_scale`
There is still an apparent duplication which is a special case, namely
`test_grouped_convnd_bwd_weight_interface_{suffix}` where `{suffix}` is
`xdl` or `wmma`.
However, the WMMA code relies on an old implementation, and is expected
to be removed in the future. In addition, it differs from the XDL
implementation significantly.
Therefore, it was decided to keep both files separate instead of
attempting any unification.
## Test Plan
`CMakeLists.txt` files were modified to support the new, unified tests.
In particular, testing was done for `gfx90a`, `gfx1201` and `gfx11`
architectures.
## Test Result
All tests passed successfully on all three tested architectures.

## Motivation
Add support for grouped gemm multi ABD fixed NK. MR
## Technical Details
Changes from the reverted PR:
- Device struct for grouped gemm with multiple ABD and fixed NK
(DeviceGroupedGemm_Wmma_Multi_ABD_Fixed_NK).
- Wmma versions of existing example codes: 59_grouped_gemm_multi_ABD
- Unit tests for both new wmma implementation and the reference xdl code
(previously missing)
- Note: Some Xdl instances were commented out because of unit test
failures. As mentioned apparently for xdl this feature was missing tests
so our assumption is either there is an implemenetation bug or these
instances were not set up correctly. Has the potential for a follow-up
issue.
- Generic ck profiler interface with the purpose of calling unit tests.
- Gemm instances with specific elementwise operations for gemm bias gelu
calculations.
- Added class for grouped gemm multi ABD reference calculations.
Fix epilogue selection in device implementation that caused unit test
failures

## Proposed changes
Supported types combinations using BQuant=e8m0:
- A=bf16
- B=bf16,bf8,fp4
Summary:
- remove usage of `pk_fp4_raw_t`: consistent with other implementations
and avoid taking into account of the packed size explicitly. In general,
the raw type should not be used because CK Tile internally takes care of
the PackedSize, so using the raw type adds unnecessary complexity to the
implementation
- handle microscaling by checking for `e8m0` type for BQuant (previous
implementation was inconsistent)
- add support for scaling instructions in `DequantPack8`
- mx pipeline:
- extend existing pipeline to support different B types
- add support to scale and cast before writing to LDS or after reading
from LDS (this can be defined in the `Problem` by the user)
- block gemm:
- mx pipeline is now using block gemm BQuant
- block gemm BQuant can now load from LDS and apply scale and then call
block gemm universal operator. This adds new functionalities and remove
code duplication
- warp gemm:
- add case to support 128bit ds_read/write for both A and B when A=16bit
and B=8bit
- add examples and tests: note that some tests for bf16/fp4 already
existed but were removed during previous tests refactoring. I added them
again and other relevant tests for new types combinations

## 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.

## Proposed changes
Refactor ck tile `sequence_reverse_inclusive_scan` from recursive to
for-loop.
Tracking issue: #4229
This pull request introduces a new lightweight array type,
`static_array`, and refactors the sequence utilities to use it for
improved constexpr support and simplicity. The changes also include
updates to the build system to add container-related tests.
**Core Library Improvements:**
* Added a new header `static_array.hpp` that defines the `static_array`
type, a constexpr-friendly array with basic accessors and no custom
constructors.
* Updated includes in `core.hpp` and `sequence.hpp` to import
`static_array`.

**Refactoring to Use `static_array`:**
* Refactored sequence utilities in `sequence.hpp` to use `static_array`
instead of the previously forward-declared `array` type, including in
histogram and array generation logic.
[[1]](diffhunk://#diff-5042e5b47bb2ba78bbab2d284338cf0503bc8fb76a7d631cc2684ad6ca832a76L1108-R1133)

* Rewrote the implementation of `sequence_reverse_inclusive_scan` to use
`static_array` for intermediate storage, improving constexpr evaluation
and clarity.
**Build System and Testing:**
* Added a new test subdirectory for container tests and a GoogleTest
executable for `unit_sequence.cpp` to the CMake build configuration.

## Motivation
Add support of gfx11 architectures (RDNA3) to FMHA.
## Technical Details
Distributions (matrix elements to lane registers mapping) of gfx11 WMMA
are completely different from distributions of gfx9 MFMA and gfx12 WMMA.
There are two cases in FMHA where this difference matters:
* usage of results (matrix C) of one GEMM as input (matrix A) of another
GEMM.
* random number generation for dropout (implementation for gfx9 MFMA,
gfx12 WMMA and host validation produce the same results).
Both cases are solved by a special remapping implemented using
`__builtin_amdgcn_permlanex16` and `__builtin_amdgcn_perm`.
Additional changes:
* FMHA tests are now build and run only for those types for which
instances exist (gfx11 supports only fp16 and bf16).
* Two fixes for uninitialized values (`mask.sink` and
`do_fp8_static_quant`): they may contain garbage resulting in incorrect
dispatching logic, sometimes tests report that there are no instance
available for current parameters.
* Small fix to remove expcnt(0) from s_waitcnt instruction on gfx11 when
they are not requested (i.e. every time), likely has no effect on
performance but makes disassembly a bit clearer.
## Test Plan
```
ninja test_ck_tile_fmha
bin/test_ck_tile_fmha_fwd_fp16
bin/test_ck_tile_fmha_fwd_bf16
bin/test_ck_tile_fmha_bwd_fp16
bin/test_ck_tile_fmha_bwd_bf16
```
## Test Result
All tests must pass (some tests may be skipped).

## Proposed changes
This PR adds an RDNA4 implementation of the device_grouped_gemm_fixed_nk
instance library using for WMMA.
The implementation is based on the existing
DeviceGroupedGemm_Xdl_Fixed_NK design and reuses the same high-level
structure, but replaces the XDL kernel with a WMMA-based one. It uses
the GridwiseGemm_wmma_cshuffle_v3 kernel.
At this stage, the focus is functional correctness and compatibility,
not performance tuning.
## Technical Details
- Device struct for grouped gemm fixed NK
- Example code for the WMMA version
- Unit tests for both new wmma implementation and the reference XDL code
(previously missing)
- Generic ck profiler interface with the purpose of calling unit tests.

## Motivation
Recursive template implementations might initially seem attractive to
minimize necessary coding.
Unfortunately, this style is often affects readability and requires
significant resources from the compiler to generate instantiation
chains. In "high-traffic" code (e.g., used in many places + compilation
units), this generally does not scale well and can bloat the overall
compile times to unnecessary lengths.
The aim of this PR is to take some of most high-traffic utility code and
try our best to eliminate recursive templates in favor of fold
expansions and constexpr function helpers.
In local tests with clang build analyzer,
device_grouped_conv2d_fwd_xdl_ngchw_gkcyx_ngkhw_f16_16x16_instance.cpp
showed high hit-rates on slow template instantiations in static_for,
dimensional static_for (static_ford), which are subsequently affected by
implementation of the Sequence class and associated transforms.
Example:
**** Templates that took longest to instantiate:
70111 ms: ck::detail::applier<int, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11,
12, 1... (372 times, avg 188 ms) // **70 seconds!**
The above is part of the implementation of static_for which uses
Sequence classes..
## Technical Details
### Summary of Optimization Techniques
| Technique | Used In | Benefit |
|-----------|---------|---------|
| __Constexpr for-loop computation__ | sequence_reverse_inclusive_scan,
sequence_map_inverse | Moves O(N) work from template instantiation to
constexpr evaluation |
| __Pack expansion with indexing__ | sequence_reverse, Sequence::Modify
| Single template instantiation instead of recursive |
| __Flat iteration + decomposition__ | ford, static_ford | O(1) template
depth instead of O(N^D) |
| __Pre-computed strides__ | index_decomposer | Enables O(1)
linear-to-multi-index conversion |
### Impact on Compile Time
These optimizations reduce template instantiation depth from O(N) or
O(N^D) to O(1), which:
1. Reduces compiler memory usage
2. Reduces compile time exponentially for deep instantiation chains
3. Enables larger iteration spaces without hitting template depth limits
## Test Plan
* Existing tests for Sequence are re-used to affirm correctness
* Unit tests for ford and static_ford are added (dimensional looping)
* 8 new regression tests specifically verify the fixes for the PR
feedback:
- `NonTrivialOrder3D_201` - Tests Orders<2,0,1> for static_ford
- `NonTrivialOrder3D_201_Runtime` - Tests Orders<2,0,1> for ford
- `ConsistencyWithNonTrivialOrder_201` - Verifies static_ford and ford
consistency

This pull request introduces several improvements and fixes related to
quantized grouped GEMM (General Matrix Multiply) pipelines and their
supporting utilities.
# The numerical issue
## Steps to reproduce
```bash
Run
./bin/tile_example_gemm_weight_preshuffle -prec=fp8
./bin/tile_example_gemm_weight_preshuffle -prec=int4
```
# Solution
The main changes address type correctness, improve data layout and
shuffling logic, and expand test coverage to better validate different
GEMM configurations.
**Key changes include:**
### Data layout and shuffling logic
* Refactored the logic in `shuffle_b_permuteN` to use `constexpr`
variables for `KLane` and `ItemsPerAccess`, simplifying tile view
construction and correcting the permutation order for improved
efficiency and correctness (`tensor_shuffle_utils.hpp`).
* Fixed the calculation of `KLaneBytes` in weight preshuffle pipeline
policies to account for internal data type conversion (e.g., from
`pk_int4_t` to `fp8`), ensuring accurate memory access and alignment in
quantized GEMM policies (`wp_pipeline_agmem_bgmem_creg_base_policy.hpp`,
`gemm_wp_abquant_pipeline_ag_bg_cr_base_policy.hpp`).

### Test infrastructure enhancements
* Unit tests did not catch this issue since there were no tests for fp8.
Added new configuration structs (`config_mn_16x16`, `config_mn_32x32`)
to support additional GEMM tile shapes and updated tests to run with
these configurations for broader coverage
(`test_gemm_pipeline_util.hpp`).

AICK-130
…unding
Three tests were failing intermittently with small errors (0.01-1.5%)
due to non-deterministic FP16 accumulation order from GPU thread
scheduling:
- test_ck_tile_batched_gemm
- test_ck_tile_grouped_gemm_preshuffle
- test_ck_tile_grouped_gemm_multi_d
These tests use kbatch=1 (no split-K), so errors are from
order-dependent rounding, not atomics. Increased tolerances from 1e-3 to
2e-3 (0.2%) to account for FP16 precision limits while still catching
real bugs.

* Stream-K smoke test config file generation
This change converts the stream-k smoke tests to use tile engine. Since
the m, n, and k values dependent on the CU count of a device, the
configs are generated during the Configuration Phase.
* Compute GEMM reference on GPU
* Remove redundant Stream-K tests
Removing redundant tests that are now run via tile engine.
* Fix relative and absolute tolerance calculation
This change updates the Stream-K tile engine interface to ensure that
num_wgs_per_tile is propaged and passed into the compare_results
function to calculate the rel and abs tolerance. Before, split-k was
used, which is incorrect for Stream-K since the split-k value is
always 1.
* Cleanup imports, types, and other misc items
This commit makes the following changes:
- Uses Typing module for nested type hints
- Uses quotes around cu_count_arg argument in generate_configs.cmake in
if statements
- Adds explicit include for tuple in test_gemm_streamk_simple.cpp
- Adds a type for the tiles argument in argparser to check argument
validity
* Use CU count as return value for better parsing
* Add reduction tests for bf16, fp8, and bf8
[ROCm/composable_kernel commit: 8cbd09c84a]
* [Compiler] Addressing new compiler warnings
Clang enables new lifetime warnings in production and we see build
errors due to this with the staging compiler.
The attributes added in this PR are suggested by the compiler. However,
I'm not very familiar with the code base, so the changes may be
incorrect.
* Update some more instances
* Adds file-level ignores via clang diagnostic pragma
The number of instances was large, so I decided to use file-level scope
to disable the warning via pragma clang diagnostic ignored.
It also showed this warning coming from the gtest dependency. For that,
I did add the respective command line flag to the CMake variables. I
don't know if this is acceptable or not.
* This adds the remaining instances
For a build on gfx90a.
* fix clang format
* Adding couple more instances from gfx1200 build
* Fixed another few instances

* Fix incomplete parsing of types from source names in add_instance_library() cmakelists function so we don't build f8 on RDNA3.
* Do not build f8 / bf8 only flavor tests on RDNA3
* Make sure we have proper generic instances for all instance lists related to the post-ces extra flavors, with scalarPerVector = 1. Then disable all but one generic instance per instance list to reduce compile time.
* Post rebase fix: Template parameters for Grouped Conv Fwd Device Impl got tweaked upstream.
* adding int8 and fp16 overloads to the elementwise operations
* fixed copilot nits
* Addressing review comments:
- removed unnecessary examples for dynamic op
- removed unnecessary conv specalizations for all the flavors
- removed spurious bilinear and scale source files
* clang-format
* reduced no of tests

* ck-builder: tensor copy function
This function copies one tensor to another, so that the memory
layout can be changed between them.
* ck-builder: fix ck::bhalf literals
These types don't work properly.
* ck-builder: abstract compare_elements in gpu_verification.hpp and make builder use it
This reduces the amount of duplicated code a bit.
* ck-builder: add flat tensor iterator
This "iterator" type pretends to be a pointer, useful for passing
tensors to functions expecting pointer-like types.
* ck-builder: integrate validation with ck gpu verification
By templating the gpu_verify function over iterators, we can use
the new FlatTensorIterator to adapt the function to multi-
dimensional tensors without changing either implementation
too much.
* ck-builder: add check_by_accumulations
This changes the gpu_verification.hpp code to also accept "iterator"
types for the relevant gpu_verify and gpu_reduce_max functions.
* ck: fix test_gpu_verification GenerateRandomData for bhalf
is_integer_it<bhalf_t> yields true, but it is not actually
an integer.
* ck: make gpu_verification kernels be proper persistent kernels
Previously these were using a hardcoded value for the grid size. This
commit changes that so that the grid size is automatically derived
from the kernel's occupancy and the number of multiprocessors on
the GPU.
* ck: clean up gpu_verification.hpp using block_reduce
This implements a small generic block reduce function, and rewrites
the rest of gpu_verification.hpp using that function to clean it up
a bit.
* ck-builder: doc typos
* ck-builder: update testing readme with validation interface.
* ck-builder: rebase fixes + review comments
* ck-builder: fix device integer generation with float types
Passing bfloat here causes a nans due to type_convert performing
a bitcast.
* ck: another bhalf_t bug
CK expects that int-generation with ck::bhalf_t yields bhalf integers,
not unsigned integers. This makes the logic of FillUniformRandInteger
compatible with GeneratorTensor_2<InDataType>, however idiotic that
may be.
[ROCm/composable_kernel commit: 42048bdb7d]
* ck-builder: restructure testing conv
In order to prepare for bwd of conv testing, this commit moves some
files and types around so that we can reuse ckt::Args for both forward
and backwards convolution.
* ck-builder: decouple fwd_ck.hpp and fwd_reference.hpp from fwd.hpp
This will allow us to more easily include fwd.hpp from backwards
definitions, which is required for initializing bwd values.
* ck-builder: fix layout of test_ckb_conv_bwd_weight_xdl_cshuffle_v3
Turns out that the supplied layout isn't actually supported...
* ck-builder: ck and reference conv integration for bwd weight
* ck-builder: ck bwd weight execution test
* ck-builder: ckt::run support for ck-tile bwd weight
* ck-builder: ck tile bwd weight execution test
* ck-builder: extra debug printing in MatchesReference
* ck-builder: make ckt::run return RunResult
This type is more convenient than std::tuple, as it will allow us to
use google test matchers with this in the future.
* ck-builder: RunResult matcher
Using EXPECT_THAT(..., SuccessfulRun()) will generate a check and a nice error
message about how and why running an algorithm failed.
* ck-builder: doc fixes
* ck-builder: add missing headers

[ROCm/composable_kernel commit: 834642202c]
This change significantly improves compile-time performance by reducing template
instantiation depth for sequence generation and merging operations:
Optimizations:
- sequence_gen: Reduce instantiation depth from O(log N) to O(1) by using
__make_integer_seq to generate indices in a single step, then applying the
functor via pack expansion
- uniform_sequence_gen: Similarly optimized to O(1) depth using __make_integer_seq
with a helper that applies a constant value via pack expansion
- sequence_merge: Reduce depth from O(N) to O(log N) using binary tree reduction
strategy. Added direct concatenation specializations for 1-4 sequences to
avoid recursion in common cases, falling back to binary tree merging for 5+
sequences
Documentation:
- Added extensive inline comments explaining why sequence_merge cannot achieve
O(1) depth like sequence_gen (requires computing cumulative sequence lengths
from heterogeneous inputs, inherently requiring recursion)
- Documented the binary tree reduction approach and why it's superior to fold
expressions for this use case
Testing:
- Added comprehensive unit tests for uniform_sequence_gen with different values,
sizes, and edge cases
- Added tests for sequence_gen with custom functors (double, square, identity,
constant) to verify the new implementation works with arbitrary functors
- Added tests for sequence_merge with 4, 5, and many sequences to verify both
the direct concatenation path and binary tree reduction path
- Added tests for empty sequence edge cases
[ROCm/composable_kernel commit: de59c0716c]
* Fix alignment issue in Stream-K workspace buffer
In CK Tile Stream-K, the workspace buffer is used to hold flags and
partials, where the first i bytes holds the flags and the remaining
bytes hold partials. This change adds padding to the flags prefix of the
workspace buffer to ensure the number of bytes is 128B-aligned. Without
this alignment, since workgroups do not skip cache when reading from
partials, they may read stale partials data in cache, leading to
incorrect results. The added padding avoids the stale data reading.
This change also re-enables the test_ck_tile_streamk_reduction tests.
* Compute reference GEMM on GPU for test verification to decrease testing time
