At the point where the WarpGemm is invoked, an arbitrary number of template parameters can be passed, and these are passed down all the way to the lowest level intrinsics wrappers. Here `WarpGemmParamsParser<>` is used to extract flags for the intrinsics. In this MR we adapt the the unification framework (amdgcn_mma struct and MmaPipelines) to work in the same way. By doing this, there is no longer a point in our custom intrinsic Flag structs, so these are removed. Unrelated but I also tried removing the MmaPipeline flags because they arn't used for anything except CTranspose, which is already available. This also make test_amdgcn_mma_pipeline completely redundant so removed that as well.
CK Tile Example Suite
This directory contains a comprehensive suite of examples demonstrating the CK Tile programming model for high-performance GPU kernels. Each example illustrates a key deep learning or HPC operation, implemented using tile-based parallelism, modular pipelines, and data movement policy.
What is CK Tile?
CK Tile is a composable GPU programming API that expresses kernels as a composition of "tiles"—rectangular blocks of computation and data movement. The pipeline & policy orchestrates data movement (global <-> LDS <-> registers), computation, and synchronization, enabling high efficiency and flexibility.

Technical Highlights
- Tile Distribution: See
include/ck_tile/tile_program/tile_distribution/for mapping tiles to thread blocks. - Block Tile Pipelines: See
include/ck_tile/tile_program/block_tile_pipeline/for memory/computation pipelines. - Policies and Utilities: Many examples use custom policies for tile/block size and memory access.
How to Build & Run
mkdir build && cd build
sh ../script/cmake-ck-dev.sh ../ <arch>
make -j
Each example produces its own executable in build/bin/.
Learning and Extending
- Start Simple: Try 03_gemm or 36_copy to learn tile basics.
- Explore Fusion: See 11_add_rmsnorm2d_rdquant, 15_fused_moe, or 14_moe_smoothquant for advanced fusion.
- Experiment: Modify tile sizes, layouts, or pipelines to explore performance and flexibility.
