SDFG Dialect

Dialect for the construction of static data flow graphs A dialect for the construction of static data flow graphs. The data flow graph is composed of a set of processes, connected through data streams. Special streams allow for data to be injected into and to be retrieved from the data flow graph.

Operation definition

SDFG.get (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::Get)

Retrieves a data element from a stream

Retrieves a single data element from the specified stream (i.e., an instance of the element type of the stream).

Example:

"SDFG.get" (%stream) : (!SDFG.stream<1024xi64>) -> (tensor<1024xi64>)

Operands:

Operand	Description
stream	An SDFG data stream

Results:

Result	Description
data	any type

SDFG.init (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::Init)

Initializes the streaming framework

Initializes the streaming framework. This operation must be performed before control reaches any other operation from the dialect.

Example:

"SDFG.init" : () -> !SDFG.dfg

Results:

Result	Description
«unnamed»	An SDFG data flow graph

SDFG.make_process (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::MakeProcess)

Creates a new SDFG process

Creates a new SDFG process and connects it to the input and output streams.

Example:

%in0 = "SDFG.make_stream" { type = #SDFG.stream_kind<host_to_device> }(%dfg) : (!SDFG.dfg) -> !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>
%in1 = "SDFG.make_stream" { type = #SDFG.stream_kind<host_to_device> }(%dfg) : (!SDFG.dfg) -> !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>
%out = "SDFG.make_stream" { type = #SDFG.stream_kind<device_to_host> }(%dfg) : (!SDFG.dfg) -> !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>
"SDFG.make_process" { type = #SDFG.process_kind<add_eint> }(%dfg, %in0, %in1, %out) :
  (!SDFG.dfg, !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>, !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>, !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>) -> ()

Attributes:

Attribute	MLIR Type	Description
type	::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::ProcessKindAttr	Process kind

Operands:

Operand	Description
dfg	An SDFG data flow graph
streams	An SDFG data stream

SDFG.make_stream (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::MakeStream)

Returns a new SDFG stream

Returns a new SDFG stream, transporting data either between processes on the device, from the host to the device or from the device to the host. All streams are typed, allowing data to be read / written through SDFG.get and SDFG.put only using the stream's type.

Example:

"SDFG.make_stream" { name = "stream", type = #SDFG.stream_kind<host_to_device> }(%dfg)
  : (!SDFG.dfg) -> !SDFG.stream<tensor<1024xi64>>

Attributes:

Attribute	MLIR Type	Description
name	::mlir::StringAttr	string attribute
type	::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::StreamKindAttr	Stream kind

Operands:

Operand	Description
dfg	An SDFG data flow graph

Results:

Result	Description
«unnamed»	An SDFG data stream

SDFG.put (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::Put)

Writes a data element to a stream

Writes the input operand to the specified stream. The operand's type must meet the element type of the stream.

Example:

"SDFG.put" (%stream, %data) : (!SDFG.stream<1024xi64>, tensor<1024xi64>) -> ()

Operands:

Operand	Description
stream	An SDFG data stream
data	any type

SDFG.shutdown (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::Shutdown)

Shuts down the streaming framework

Shuts down the streaming framework. This operation must be performed after any other operation from the dialect.

Example:

"SDFG.shutdown" (%dfg) : !SDFG.dfg

Operands:

Operand	Description
dfg	An SDFG data flow graph

SDFG.start (::mlir::concretelang::SDFG::Start)

Finalizes the creation of an SDFG and starts execution of its processes

Finalizes the creation of an SDFG and starts execution of its processes. Any creation of streams and processes must take place before control reaches this operation.

Example:

"SDFG.start"(%dfg) : !SDFG.dfg

Operands:

Operand	Description
dfg	An SDFG data flow graph
