ck_tile: add gtest unit tests for MX flatmm (gfx950)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

- Add correctness unit tests for the MX-format flatmm kernel
(`example/ck_tile/18_flatmm/mxgemm`) under `test/ck_tile/flatmm/`
- Tests cover all five dtype combinations: FP4×FP4, FP8×FP8, FP6×FP6,
FP8×FP4, FP4×FP8
- Tests cover all four kernel dispatch paths (the `has_hot_loop` ×
`tail_num` product):
  - `has_hot_loop=false, tail=ODD` (K=256, num_loop=1)
  - `has_hot_loop=false, tail=EVEN` (K=512, num_loop=2)
  - `has_hot_loop=true, tail=ODD` (K=768, num_loop=3)
  - `has_hot_loop=true, tail=EVEN` (K=1024, num_loop=4)
- Remove unsupported `-split_k` CLI option from
`tile_example_mx_flatmm`; the pre-shuffled B layout is incompatible with
K-splitting and the option silently produced wrong results

## Changes

**New files (`test/ck_tile/flatmm/`):**
- `CMakeLists.txt` — builds 40 kernel instances as a shared OBJECT
library, links into 5 per-dtype test executables; forwards
`-DCK_TILE_USE_OCP_FP8` when `CK_USE_OCP_FP8` is ON
- `test_mx_flatmm_base.hpp` — base test fixture with
`run_test_with_validation(M, N, K, kbatch=1)`
- `test_mx_flatmm_fixtures.hpp` — concrete `TestMXFlatmm` typed test
class and type aliases
- `test_mx_flatmm_fp{4fp4,8fp8,6fp6,8fp4,4fp8}.cpp` — per-dtype
`TYPED_TEST_SUITE` files

**Modified files:**
- `example/ck_tile/18_flatmm/mxgemm/mx_flatmm_arch_traits.hpp` — moved
`preShuffleWeight` here (was in `mx_flatmm.cpp`) so it is includeable by
both the example and the tests
- `example/ck_tile/18_flatmm/mxgemm/mx_flatmm.cpp` / `run_mx_flatmm.inc`
— removed `-split_k` CLI arg, hardcoded `k_batch=1`, fixed `k_split`
formula, updated call sites after `preShuffleWeight` move
- `test/ck_tile/CMakeLists.txt` — added `add_subdirectory(flatmm)`

FLATMM Matrix Multiplication with CK Tile

This example demonstrates FLATMM (flattened matrix multiplication) using the CK Tile programming model. FLATMM is a variant of GEMM optimized for certain memory layouts and batch processing patterns. Currently, it only supports the basic feature of the CK Tile FLATMM, but creates the placeholders for the future support on different FLATMM pipeline and different FLATMM modules. In the near future, we will gradually migrate all the FLATMM features from old CK to CK Tile.


Algorithm and Math

Given:

  • A: [\text{batch}, M, K]
  • B: [\text{batch}, K, N]
  • C: [\text{batch}, M, N]

For each batch b:


C^{(b)} = A^{(b)} \times B^{(b)}
  • FLATMM: An alternative solution as the Preshuffled GEMM in /03_gemm

Build & Run

# in the root of ck_tile
mkdir build && cd build
# you can replace <arch> with the appropriate architecture (for example gfx90a or gfx942) or leave it blank
../script/cmake-ck-dev.sh  ../ <arch>
# The basic pipeline method on the flatmm calculation
make tile_example_flatmm_basic -j

This will result in an executable build/bin/tile_example_flatmm_basic
