[ck] Enforce ASCII-only C/C++ sources for hipRTC compatibility (#7829) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit ## Summary CK source files must be compilable via **hipRTC (HIP runtime compilation)**, whose preprocessor does not accept non-ASCII bytes anywhere in a translation unit — **including in comments**. Bytes that are harmless under `hipcc` (em-dashes, smart quotes, multiplication signs, Greek letters, box-drawing glyphs, etc.) cause hipRTC to fail at preprocessing time. These regularly leak in via LLM-assisted authoring or copy/paste from formatted documents and silently break hipRTC paths that are not exercised by the default `hipcc`-based build matrix. This PR (a) cleans every existing violation (53 files) and (b) adds a pre-checkin gate so new violations are rejected before merge. ## File extensions covered Both the cleanup scan and the new Jenkins enforcement stage use the same predicate: ``` *.h *.hpp *.cpp *.h.in *.hpp.in *.cpp.in *.inc *.cl ``` (excluding `*/build/*` and `*/include/rapidjson/*`). This is a strict superset of the existing `Clang Format` stage's predicate — `*.inc` is added so test-fixture include files are also gated. The local pre-commit hook's `c++/inc` type filter covers the same set. ## Why no enforcement today CK is opted out of the rocm-libraries root `.pre-commit-config.yaml`, so the existing `pre-commit` workflow doesn't touch CK. The local CK `.pre-commit-config.yaml` only runs for developers who installed hooks. The **authoritative gate is therefore the new Jenkins stage** in this PR; the local hook is convenience. ## Commit layout (bisect-friendly) 1. `79798aa6261` — **`[ck] Convert reflect/ rendering to ASCII for hipRTC compatibility`** Behavior change, isolated. `TreeFormatter` swaps `├─ / └─ / │ ` for `|- / +- / | ` (3-col width preserved so alignment is unchanged). `conv_description.hpp` swaps `×` for `x` as the dimension separator. `test_conv_description.cpp` expected strings updated in lockstep so the snapshot test stays green. This is the only commit in the series with observable runtime impact. 2. `738fdb0d81c` — **`[ck] Strip non-ASCII bytes from C++ sources for hipRTC compatibility`** Mechanical text cleanup across 53 files. Replacements happen in comments or in `std::cout` strings that are not asserted on by any test. None of the 174 `.inc` files in the tree required edits, but they were in the scan's predicate so the enforcement stage's predicate is a superset of what was scanned. Full replacement table in the commit message. 3. `1d7cd8ba235` — **`[ck] Enforce ASCII-only C/C++ sources for hipRTC compatibility`** - New `projects/composablekernel/script/check_ascii_only.sh` (modeled on `check_copyright_year.sh`). - New entry in `projects/composablekernel/.pre-commit-config.yaml` under the local-hooks block (`types_or: [c++, inc]`). - New `ASCII Only Check` parallel stage in `projects/composablekernel/Jenkinsfile`'s `Static checks` block, mirroring the existing `Clang Format` stage but with `*.inc` added to the find predicate. Always-on, no `RUN_CPPCHECK` gate. The tree is buildable at every commit boundary. Commit 1 leaves 50 known violations; commit 2 leaves 0; commit 3 wires the gate. ## Demo Script output on a synthesized violation: ``` $ printf '// em-dash test \xe2\x80\x94 here\n' > /tmp/bad.cpp $ projects/composablekernel/script/check_ascii_only.sh /tmp/bad.cpp ERROR: /tmp/bad.cpp contains non-ASCII bytes: 1:// em-dash test — here Fix: replace with ASCII (em-dash -> --, smart quotes -> ", arrows -> ->, etc.) $ echo $? 1 ``` Full repo scan after the cleanup commits (note the `-name '*.inc'` clause): ``` $ cd projects/composablekernel && find . -type f \( -name '*.h' -o -name '*.hpp' -o -name '*.cpp' \ -o -name '*.h.in' -o -name '*.hpp.in' -o -name '*.cpp.in' -o -name '*.inc' -o -name '*.cl' \) \ -not -path '*/build/*' -not -path '*/include/rapidjson/*' -print0 \ | xargs -0 -P 8 -n 64 script/check_ascii_only.sh $ echo $? 0 ``` ## Test plan - [ ] Jenkins PR build: confirm new `Static checks -> ASCII Only Check` stage runs green over the full predicate (incl. `*.inc`) and existing `Clang Format` stage is unaffected. - [ ] `test_conv_description` passes against the ASCII tree-formatter output (touched in commit 1). - [ ] Local: `pre-commit run ascii-only-checker --all-files` runs cleanly after installing CK pre-commit hooks via `script/install_precommit.sh`. - [ ] Manually inject a non-ASCII byte in any `.cpp/.hpp/.inc` file, push: confirm Jenkins fails the new stage with a clear error. - [ ] Spot-check a representative subset of touched files under hipRTC compilation to confirm no remaining hipRTC-blocking content (optional, since the static byte check is a sufficient condition for hipRTC preprocessor acceptance on this dimension). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)
Composable Kernel Tile
concept
ck_tile provides a programming model with templated abstractions to enable users to implement performance-critical kernels for machine learning workloads. introduces following basic concepts to help users building your own operator
- tensor coordinate transformation, this is the core concept of layout/index transform abstraction in both compiler time and run time.
- tile-based programming model, including tile-level api and the concept of distributed tensor.
ck_tile is independently from the old ck, located under /include/ck_tile. You don't need to include anything from old CK, ck_tile has similiar (indeed almost the same) implementations for users to build operators. We will have a transition period to pull everything from old ck into ck_tile, stay tuned.
component
ck_tile is splitted into several componenets including core, host, ops/gemm, ops/fmha... each component you only need to include a single header (e.g #include "ck_tile/core.hpp", #include "ck_tile/ops/fmha.hpp") then you are able to use the function/structure inside (different from old ck)
[core]
ck_tile/core contains all the basic data structure and function to build the kernel, you can only include this header and build your own operators that utilizing all the basic building blocks introduced in ck.
core/container
- array, store runtime variables with fixed length (tensor index, register buffer, etc...)
- tuple, same as std::tuple, hold different type of data, and one of the solution to achieve multiple buffer.
- sequence, compile time integer sequence used to build various internal structures, or to describe tile size
- other convenient structure build on top of above 3
core/numeric
- gpu data type like
fp16_t,bf16_t,fp8_t... and the conversion between each other - constexpr integer similiar to std::integral_constant to be used as compile time integer.
- math functions and numeric utilities
core/algorithm
- coordinate transformation system, used to build tensor transform and compile time indexing. This is the core idea introduced in old
ckto describe how a tensor is build by several basic transform primitives likemerge/unmerge/embedetc... and how we indexing into a ND tensor that finally mapped to 1D memory offset.
core/tensor
- tensor descriptor, to describe how a ND tensor
- distributed tensor, describe the storage of this tensor, and the distribution of how a collection of threads collaborately work for this tensor.
- tile level API, including
load_tile,store_tile,shuffle_tile,slice_tile, etc...
[host]
ck_tile/host contains all the host side utilities to launch a kernel, create the device buffer, and some reference implementations. This can be used to create examples (like that under ck_tile example folder) and simple executable to invoke this kernel, so if you only need ck_tile to build your own device library then it's OK to not include this. Based on this, it is recommended to include the specific header you needed under this folder to avoid including unwanted headers (e.g, only include ck_tile/host/kernel_launch.hpp), unless you are writing a host executable.
[ops/gemm, ops/fmha, ops/reduce...]
our implementation of different device operators.
- warp, warp tile level operator
- block, block tile level operator
- pipeline, pipeline that can achieve a customized tile level mainloop (or epilogue). By switching different pipeline to the kernel template you can have different kind of pipeline optimizations.
- kernel, template interface for users to instantiate a particular kernel
[ops/epilogue]
epilogue part of our kernel. We may extend this epilogue part to let users to build their own cutomized epilogues.
[ref]
reference implementation of cpu or gpu. This folder is supposed to include a specific header on demand.
examples
currently we put all ck_tile related example under /example/ck_tile folder. Please check each example's subfolder.
