Client Example: GEMM with Add and Multiply Fusion
Theory
This client example demonstrates GEMM fused with addition and multiplication operations. This pattern is used in neural networks for bias addition, scaling, gating, and other elementwise transformations after a linear layer.
Mathematical Formulation:
- GEMM:
Y = A \times B - Add:
Z = Y + D_0 - Multiply:
E = Z \odot D_1D_0,D_1: auxiliary tensors (e.g., bias, scale, gate)
Algorithmic Background:
- The GEMM result is kept in registers, addition and multiplication are fused in the epilogue.
- No intermediate results are written to global memory.
- Used for bias+scale, gating, and other fused epilogue patterns.

Key Functions
- main() (in
gemm_add_multiply.cpp):
Sets up input matrices, configures GEMM and epilogue parameters, launches the fused kernel, and verifies the result. - Fused kernel invocation:
Uses the Composable Kernel device API to launch the GEMM with fused addition and multiplication.
Additional Details
- Supports fusion of multiple elementwise operations with GEMM.
- Example parameters can be adjusted in the source for different workloads.
