[CK Tile] Eight Waves pipeline GEMM ## Motivation Eight waves pipeline was added for ABQuant. The goal of this PR is to enable it also for GEMM ## Technical Details Summary: - Block: - Create block struct for GEMM using eight warps specific distribution encodings - Use this block struct in ABQuant for encodings - Pipeline: - Create impl pipeline for eight waves which can be used by GEMM and ABQuant as base (and for AQuant and BQuant in the future) - Create eight waves pipeline for GEMM (this can not be easily integrated in the existing async pipeline) - Pipeline policy: - Extract GEMM specific parts in the ABQuant policy to define GEMM policy (then ABQuant use it as base and add Quant specific methods) - Minor: naming was inconsistent between warp/wave, everything is now referred to as eight waves So overall we have: - block struct directly used by GEMM -> ABQuant derived struct to implement operator - Impl base pipeline with general implementation -> GEMM and ABQuant pipelines use it to avoid code duplication but still define their own pipelines - pipeline policy struct directly used by GEMM -> ABQuant derived policy struct for Quant specific parts ## Test Plan Added new tests for GEMM pipeline: `test_ck_tile_gemm_pipeline_comp_async_eight_waves` (only gfx950 supports it). Note: K padding test is disabled for this pipeline because it's not implemented yet ## Submission Checklist - [x] Look over the contributing guidelines at https://github.com/ROCm/ROCm/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md#pull-requests.
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.
