# CK Tile Dispatcher Examples

Comprehensive examples for GEMM operations with GPU execution.

> **Note**: Convolution examples have been moved to `ck-2/conv_archive/` for reference.

## Quick Start

### Step 1: Build

```bash
cd /path/to/composable_kernel/dispatcher
mkdir -p build && cd build

cmake .. \
  -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/opt/rocm \
  -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/opt/rocm/bin/hipcc \
  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
  -DGPU_TARGETS="gfx942" \
  -DBUILD_DISPATCHER_EXAMPLES=ON

# Build everything (C++ examples + Python libraries)
make -j$(nproc)

# Or build ONLY Python libraries (faster)
make python_libs -j$(nproc)
```

### Step 2: Run C++ Examples

```bash
cd build/examples

# GEMM
./gemm_01_basic
./gemm_02_multi_size
./gemm_03_benchmark_validation
./gemm_04_heuristics
./gemm_05_json_export
./gemm_06_multi_registry
```

### Step 3: Run Python Examples

```bash
cd /path/to/composable_kernel/dispatcher

# GEMM
python3 examples/gemm/python/01_basic_gemm.py
python3 examples/gemm/python/04_validation.py
python3 examples/gemm/python/07_stress_test.py
python3 examples/gemm/python/08_heuristics.py
```

## Key Features

### Declarative Kernel API

Both C++ and Python examples use a declarative approach:

**C++ (DECL_KERNEL_SET macro):**
```cpp
DECL_KERNEL_SET(my_kernels,
    .add(
        Signature().dtype("fp16").layout("rcr"),
        Algorithm().tile(256, 256, 32).wave(2, 2, 1).warp(32, 32, 16)
                   .pipeline("compv4").scheduler("intrawave"),
        "gfx942"
    )
);
```

**Python (KernelConfig):**
```python
config = KernelConfig(
    tile_m=256, tile_n=256, tile_k=32,
    wave_m=2, wave_n=2, wave_k=1,
    warp_tile_m=32, warp_tile_n=32, warp_tile_k=16,
    pipeline="compv4", scheduler="intrawave"
)
```

### Autofill and Autocorrect

The build system automatically:
- **Autofills** missing parameters with sensible defaults
- **Autocorrects** invalid parameters based on architecture constraints
- **Expands** wildcards (`*`, `-1`, `ANY_INT`) to all valid configurations

### Architecture Filtering

Kernel configurations are validated against GPU architecture constraints:
- Tile divisibility requirements
- Warp tile constraints
- Pipeline compatibility

Invalid configurations are automatically pruned during code generation.

## Validation Examples

### C++ Validation

```bash
./gemm_03_benchmark_validation --verify 1    # GEMM with CPU reference
./gemm_03_benchmark_validation --verify 2    # GEMM with GPU reference
```

### Python Validation

```bash
python3 examples/gemm/python/04_validation.py
python3 examples/gemm/python/07_stress_test.py   # Multi-kernel validation
```

---

## Troubleshooting

### Python: Library not found

```bash
# Run from dispatcher directory
cd /path/to/composable_kernel/dispatcher
python3 examples/gemm/python/01_basic_gemm.py
```

### C++: Executables not found

```bash
# Build with examples enabled
cmake .. -DBUILD_DISPATCHER_EXAMPLES=ON
make -j$(nproc)

# Run from build/examples
cd build/examples
./gemm_01_basic
```

### GPU not detected

```bash
rocminfo | grep "Name:"
# Should show: gfx942, gfx90a, etc.
```
