Introduction
============

To support GPU programming, the NVPTX back-end supports a subset of LLVM IR
along with a defined set of conventions used to represent GPU programming
concepts. This document provides an overview of the general usage of the back-
end, including a description of the conventions used and the set of accepted
LLVM IR.

.. note::

   This document assumes a basic familiarity with CUDA and the PTX
   assembly language. Information about the CUDA Driver API and the PTX assembly
   language can be found in the `CUDA documentation
   <http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/index.html>`_.


Conventions
===========

Marking Functions as Kernels
----------------------------

In PTX, there are two types of functions: *device functions*, which are only
callable by device code, and *kernel functions*, which are callable by host
code. By default, the back-end will emit device functions. The ``ptx_kernel``
calling convention is used to declare a function as a kernel function.

The following example shows a kernel function calling a device function in LLVM
IR. The function ``@my_kernel`` is callable from host code, but ``@my_fmad`` is
not.

.. code-block:: llvm

    define float @my_fmad(float %x, float %y, float %z) {
      %mul = fmul float %x, %y
      %add = fadd float %mul, %z
      ret float %add
    }

    define ptx_kernel void @my_kernel(ptr %ptr) {
      %val = load float, ptr %ptr
      %ret = call float @my_fmad(float %val, float %val, float %val)
      store float %ret, ptr %ptr
      ret void
    }

When compiled, the PTX kernel functions are callable by host-side code.


Parameter Attributes
--------------------

``"nvvm.grid_constant"``
    This attribute may be attached to a ``byval`` parameter of a kernel function
    to indicate that the parameter should be lowered as a direct reference to
    the grid-constant memory of the parameter, as opposed to a copy of the
    parameter in local memory. Writing to a grid-constant parameter is
    undefined behavior. Unlike a normal ``byval`` parameter, the address of a
    grid-constant parameter is not unique to a given function invocation but
    instead is shared by all kernels in the grid.

.. _nvptx_fnattrs:

Function Attributes
-------------------

``"nvvm.maxclusterrank"="<n>"``
    This attribute specifies the maximum number of blocks per cluster. Must be 
    non-zero. Only supported for Hopper+.

``"nvvm.minctasm"="<n>"``
    This indicates a hint/directive to the compiler/driver, asking it to put at
    least these many CTAs on an SM.

``"nvvm.maxnreg"="<n>"``
    This attribute indicates the maximum number of registers to be used for the
    kernel function.

``"nvvm.maxntid"="<x>[,<y>[,<z>]]"``
    This attribute declares the maximum number of threads in the thread block
    (CTA). The maximum number of threads is the product of the maximum extent in
    each dimension. Exceeding the maximum number of threads results in a runtime
    error or kernel launch failure.

``"nvvm.reqntid"="<x>[,<y>[,<z>]]"``
    This attribute declares the exact number of threads in the thread block
    (CTA). The number of threads is the product of the value in each dimension.
    Specifying a different CTA dimension at launch will result in a runtime 
    error or kernel launch failure.

``"nvvm.cluster_dim"="<x>[,<y>[,<z>]]"``
    This attribute declares the number of thread blocks (CTAs) in the cluster.
    The total number of CTAs is the product of the number of CTAs in each 
    dimension. Specifying a different cluster dimension at launch will result in
    a runtime error or kernel launch failure. Only supported for Hopper+.

``"nvvm.blocksareclusters"``
    This attribute implies that the grid launch configuration for the corresponding
    kernel function is specifying the number of clusters instead of the number of thread
    blocks. This attribute is only allowed for kernel functions and requires
    ``nvvm.reqntid`` and ``nvvm.cluster_dim`` attributes.

.. _address_spaces:

Address Spaces
--------------

The NVPTX back-end uses the following address space mapping:

   ============= ======================
   Address Space Memory Space
   ============= ======================
   0             Generic
   1             Global
   2             Internal Use
   3             Shared
   4             Constant
   5             Local
   7             Shared Cluster
   ============= ======================

Every global variable and pointer type is assigned to one of these address
spaces, with 0 being the default address space. Intrinsics are provided which
can be used to convert pointers between the generic and non-generic address
spaces.

As an example, the following IR will define an array ``@g`` that resides in
global device memory.

.. code-block:: llvm

    @g = internal addrspace(1) global [4 x i32] [ i32 0, i32 1, i32 2, i32 3 ]

LLVM IR functions can read and write to this array, and host-side code can
copy data to it by name with the CUDA Driver API.

Note that since address space 0 is the generic space, it is illegal to have
global variables in address space 0.  Address space 0 is the default address
space in LLVM, so the ``addrspace(N)`` annotation is *required* for global
variables.


Triples
-------

The NVPTX target uses the module triple to select between 32/64-bit code
generation and the driver-compiler interface to use. The triple architecture
can be one of ``nvptx`` (32-bit PTX) or ``nvptx64`` (64-bit PTX). The
operating system should be one of ``cuda`` or ``nvcl``, which determines the
interface used by the generated code to communicate with the driver.  Most
users will want to use ``cuda`` as the operating system, which makes the
generated PTX compatible with the CUDA Driver API.

Example: 32-bit PTX for CUDA Driver API: ``nvptx-nvidia-cuda``

Example: 64-bit PTX for CUDA Driver API: ``nvptx64-nvidia-cuda``

.. _nvptx_arch_hierarchy:

NVPTX Architecture Hierarchy and Ordering
=========================================

GPU architectures: sm_2Y/sm_3Y/sm_5Y/sm_6Y/sm_7Y/sm_8Y/sm_9Y/sm_10Y/sm_12Y
('Y' represents version within the architecture)
The architectures have name of form ``sm_XYz`` where ``X`` represent the generation
number, ``Y`` represents the version within the architecture, and ``z`` represents
the optional feature suffix.
If ``X1Y1 <= X2Y2``, then GPU capabilities of ``sm_X1Y1`` are included in ``sm_X2Y2``.
For example, take ``sm_90`` (9 represents ``X``, 0 represents ``Y``, and no feature
suffix) and ``sm_103`` architectures (10 represents ``X``, 3 represents ``Y``, and no
feature suffix). Since 90 <= 103, ``sm_90`` is compatible with ``sm_103``.

The family-specific variants have ``f`` feature suffix and they follow
following order:
``sm_X{Y2}f > sm_X{Y1}f`` iff ``Y2 > Y1``
``sm_XY{f} > sm_{XY}{}``

For example, take ``sm_100f`` (10 represents ``X``, 0 represents ``Y``, and ``f``
represents ``z``) and ``sm_103f`` (10 represents ``X``, 3 represents ``Y``, and ``f``
represents ``z``) architecture variants. Since ``Y1 < Y2``, ``sm_100f`` is compatible with
``sm_103f``. Similarly based on the second rule, ``sm_90`` is compatible with ``sm_103f``.

Some counter examples, take ``sm_100f`` and ``sm_120f`` (12 represents ``X``, 0
represents ``Y``, and ``f`` represents ``z``) architecture variants. Since both
belongs to different family i.e. ``X1 != X2``, ``sm_100f`` is not compatible with
``sm_120f``.

The architecture-specific variants have ``a`` feature suffix and they follow
following order:
``sm_XY{a} > sm_XY{f} > sm_{XY}{}``

For example, take ``sm_103a`` (10 represents ``X``, 3 represents ``Y``, and ``a``
represents ``z``), ``sm_103f``, and ``sm_103`` architecture variants. The ``sm_103`` is
compatible with ``sm_103a`` and ``sm_103f``, and ``sm_103f`` is compatible with ``sm_103a``.

Encoding := Arch * 10 + 2 (for 'f') + 1 (for 'a')
Arch := X * 10 + Y

For example, ``sm_103f`` is encoded as 1032 (103 * 10 + 2) and ``sm_103a`` is
encoded as 1033 (103 * 10 + 2 + 1).

This encoding allows simple partial ordering of the architectures.

* Compare Family and Arch by dividing FullSMVersion by 100 and 10
  respectively before the comparison.
* Compare within the family by comparing FullSMVersion, given both belongs to
  the same family.
* Detect ``a`` variants by checking FullSMVersion & 1.

"""""""""

The '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.*``' family of intrinsics perform barrier
synchronization and communication within a CTA. They can be used by the threads
within the CTA for synchronization and communication.

Semantics:
""""""""""

Operand %id specifies a logical barrier resource and must fall within the range
0 through 15. When present, operand %n specifies the number of threads
participating in the barrier. When specifying a thread count, the value must be
a multiple of the warp size. With the '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.sync.*``'
variants, the '``.all``' suffix indicates that all threads in the CTA should
participate in the barrier while the '``.count``' suffix indicates that only
the threads specified by the %n operand should participate in the barrier.

All forms of the '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.*``' intrinsic cause the executing
thread to wait for all non-exited threads from its warp and then marks the
warp's arrival at the barrier. In addition to signaling its arrival at the 
barrier, the '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.sync.*``' intrinsics cause the executing
thread to wait for non-exited threads of all other warps participating in the
barrier to arrive. On the other hand, the '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.arrive.*``'
intrinsic does not cause the executing thread to wait for threads of other
participating warps.

When a barrier completes, the waiting threads are restarted without delay,
and the barrier is reinitialized so that it can be immediately reused.

The '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.*``' intrinsic has an optional '``.aligned``'
modifier to indicate textual alignment of the barrier. When specified, it
indicates that all threads in the CTA will execute the same
'``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.*``' instruction. In conditionally executed code, an
aligned '``@llvm.nvvm.barrier.cta.*``' instruction should only be used if it is
known that all threads in the CTA evaluate the condition identically, otherwise
behavior is undefined.

Electing a thread

The '``@llvm.nvvm.elect.sync``' intrinsic generates the ``elect.sync``
PTX instruction, which elects one predicated active leader thread from
a set of threads specified by ``membermask``. The behavior is undefined
if the executing thread is not in ``membermask``. The laneid of the
elected thread is captured in the i32 return value. The i1 return
value is set to ``True`` for the leader thread and ``False`` for all
the other threads. Election of a leader thread happens deterministically,
i.e. the same leader thread is elected for the same ``membermask``
every time. For more information, refer PTX ISA

The ``@llvm.nvvm.fence.proxy.tensormap_generic.*`` is a uni-directional fence used to establish ordering between a prior memory access performed via the generic `proxy<https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/parallel-thread-execution/index.html#proxies>_` and a subsequent memory access performed via the tensormap proxy. ``nvvm.fence.proxy.tensormap_generic.release`` can form a release sequence that synchronizes with an acquire sequence that contains the ``nvvm.fence.proxy.tensormap_generic.acquire`` proxy fence. The following table describes the mapping between LLVM Intrinsic and the PTX instruction:

  ====================================================== =========================================================

The address operand ``addr`` and the operand ``size`` together specify the memory range ``[addr, addr+size)`` on which the ordering guarantees on the memory accesses across the proxies is to be provided. The only supported value for the ``size`` operand is ``128`` and must be an immediate. Generic Addressing is used unconditionally, and the address specified by the operand addr must fall within the ``.global`` state space. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined.

The '``llvm.nvvm.flo.s``' family of intrinsics returns the bit position of the
most significant 0 for negative inputs and the most significant 1 for 
non-negative inputs. If %shiftamt is true, The result is the shift amount needed
to left-shift the found bit into the most-significant bit position, otherwise
the result is the shift amount needed to right-shift the found bit into the
least-significant bit position. 0xffffffff is returned if no 1 bit is found.

four rows in a 2D tensor are combined to form a single 2D destination

followed by four coordinates indicating the four row-indices.
So, this mode takes a total of 5 coordinates as input arguments.

The '``@llvm.nvvm.cp.async.bulk.tensor.g2s.im2col.[3-5]d``' intrinsics
correspond to the ``cp.async.bulk.tensor.[1-5]d.*`` set of PTX instructions.
These instructions initiate an asynchronous copy of tensor data from
global memory to shared::cluster memory (indicated by the ``g2s`` prefix)
in ``im2col`` mode. In im2col mode, some dimensions of the source tensor
are unrolled into a single dimensional column at the destination. In this
mode, the tensor has to be at least three-dimensional. Along with the tensor
coordinates, im2col offsets are also specified (denoted by
``i16 im2col0...i16 %im2col2``). For the ``im2col`` mode, the number of offsets
is two less than the number of dimensions of the tensor operation. For the
``im2col.w`` and ``im2col.w.128`` mode, the number of offsets is always 2,
denoted by ``i16 %wHalo`` and ``i16 %wOffset`` arguments. For more information
on ``im2col.w`` and ``im2col.w.128`` modes, refer PTX ISA
`<https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/parallel-thread-execution/#tensor-im2col-w-w128-modes>`_.

The last three arguments to these intrinsics are flags, with the same functionality
as described in the ``tile`` mode intrinsics above.

The ``llvm.nvvm.clusterlaunchcontrol.query_cancel.is_canceled`` intrinsic decodes the opaque response written by the
``llvm.nvvm.clusterlaunchcontrol.try_cancel`` operation.

The intrinsic returns ``0`` (false) if the request failed. If the request succeeded,
it returns ``1`` (true). A true result indicates that:

- the thread block cluster whose first CTA id matches that of the response
  handle will not run, and
- no other successful response of another ``try_cancel`` request in the grid will contain
  the first CTA id of that cluster

.. _libdevice:

Linking with Libdevice
======================

The CUDA Toolkit comes with an LLVM bitcode library called ``libdevice`` that
implements many common mathematical functions. This library can be used as a
high-performance math library for any compilers using the LLVM NVPTX target.
The library can be found under ``nvvm/libdevice/`` in the CUDA Toolkit and
there is a separate version for each compute architecture.

For a list of all math functions implemented in libdevice, see
`libdevice Users Guide <http://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/libdevice-users-guide/index.html>`_.

To accommodate various math-related compiler flags that can affect code
generation of libdevice code, the library code depends on a special LLVM IR
pass (``NVVMReflect``) to handle conditional compilation within LLVM IR. This
pass looks for calls to the ``@__nvvm_reflect`` function and replaces them
with constants based on the defined reflection parameters. Such conditional
code often follows a pattern:

.. code-block:: c++

  float my_function(float a) {
    if (__nvvm_reflect("FASTMATH"))
      return my_function_fast(a);
    else
      return my_function_precise(a);
  }

The default value for all unspecified reflection parameters is zero.

The ``NVVMReflect`` pass should be executed early in the optimization
pipeline, immediately after the link stage. The ``internalize`` pass is also
recommended to remove unused math functions from the resulting PTX. For an
input IR module ``module.bc``, the following compilation flow is recommended:

The ``NVVMReflect`` pass will attempt to remove dead code even without
optimizations. This allows potentially incompatible instructions to be avoided
at all optimizations levels by using the ``__CUDA_ARCH`` argument.

1. Save list of external functions in ``module.bc``
2. Link ``module.bc`` with ``libdevice.compute_XX.YY.bc``
3. Internalize all functions not in list from (1)
4. Eliminate all unused internal functions
5. Run ``NVVMReflect`` pass
6. Run standard optimization pipeline

.. note::

  ``linkonce`` and ``linkonce_odr`` linkage types are not suitable for the
  libdevice functions. It is possible to link two IR modules that have been
  linked against libdevice using different reflection variables.

Since the ``NVVMReflect`` pass replaces conditionals with constants, it will
often leave behind dead code of the form:

.. code-block:: llvm

  entry:
    ..
    br i1 true, label %foo, label %bar
  foo:
    ..
  bar:
    ; Dead code
    ..

Therefore, it is recommended that ``NVVMReflect`` is executed early in the
optimization pipeline before dead-code elimination.

The NVPTX TargetMachine knows how to schedule ``NVVMReflect`` at the beginning
of your pass manager; just use the following code when setting up your pass
manager and the PassBuilder will use ``registerPassBuilderCallbacks`` to let
NVPTXTargetMachine::registerPassBuilderCallbacks add the pass to the
pass manager:

.. code-block:: c++

    std::unique_ptr<TargetMachine> TM = ...;
    PassBuilder PB(TM);
    ModulePassManager MPM;
    PB.parsePassPipeline(MPM, ...);

Reflection Parameters
---------------------

The libdevice library currently uses the following reflection parameters to
control code generation:

==================== ======================================================
Flag                 Description
==================== ======================================================
``__CUDA_FTZ=[0,1]`` Use optimized code paths that flush subnormals to zero
==================== ======================================================

The value of this flag is determined by the "nvvm-reflect-ftz" module flag.
The following sets the ftz flag to 1.

.. code-block:: llvm

    !llvm.module.flags = !{!0}
    !0 = !{i32 4, !"nvvm-reflect-ftz", i32 1}

(``i32 4`` indicates that the value set here overrides the value in another
module we link with.  See the `LangRef <LangRef.html#module-flags-metadata>`
for details.)

Executing PTX
=============

The most common way to execute PTX assembly on a GPU device is to use the CUDA
Driver API. This API is a low-level interface to the GPU driver and allows for
JIT compilation of PTX code to native GPU machine code.

Initializing the Driver API:

.. code-block:: c++

    CUdevice device;
    CUcontext context;

    // Initialize the driver API
    cuInit(0);
    // Get a handle to the first compute device
    cuDeviceGet(&device, 0);
    // Create a compute device context
    cuCtxCreate(&context, 0, device);

JIT compiling a PTX string to a device binary:

.. code-block:: c++

    CUmodule module;
    CUfunction function;

    // JIT compile a null-terminated PTX string
    cuModuleLoadData(&module, (void*)PTXString);

    // Get a handle to the "myfunction" kernel function
    cuModuleGetFunction(&function, module, "myfunction");

For full examples of executing PTX assembly, please see the `CUDA Samples
<https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads>`_ distribution.


Common Issues
=============

ptxas complains of undefined function: __nvvm_reflect
-----------------------------------------------------

When linking with libdevice, the ``NVVMReflect`` pass must be used. See
:ref:`libdevice` for more information.


Tutorial: A Simple Compute Kernel
=================================

To start, let us take a look at a simple compute kernel written directly in
LLVM IR. The kernel implements vector addition, where each thread computes one
element of the output vector C from the input vectors A and B.  To make this
easier, we also assume that only a single CTA (thread block) will be launched,
and that it will be one dimensional.


The Kernel
----------

.. code-block:: llvm

  target datalayout = "e-p:64:64:64-i1:8:8-i8:8:8-i16:16:16-i32:32:32-i64:64:64-f32:32:32-f64:64:64-v16:16:16-v32:32:32-v64:64:64-v128:128:128-n16:32:64"
  target triple = "nvptx64-nvidia-cuda"

  ; Intrinsic to read X component of thread ID
  declare i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.tid.x() readnone nounwind

  define ptx_kernel void @kernel(ptr addrspace(1) %A,
                                 ptr addrspace(1) %B,
                                 ptr addrspace(1) %C) {
  entry:
    ; What is my ID?
    %id = tail call i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.tid.x() readnone nounwind

    ; Compute pointers into A, B, and C
    %ptrA = getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %A, i32 %id
    %ptrB = getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %B, i32 %id
    %ptrC = getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %C, i32 %id

    ; Read A, B
    %valA = load float, ptr addrspace(1) %ptrA, align 4
    %valB = load float, ptr addrspace(1) %ptrB, align 4

    ; Compute C = A + B
    %valC = fadd float %valA, %valB

    ; Store back to C
    store float %valC, ptr addrspace(1) %ptrC, align 4

    ret void
  }


We can use the LLVM ``llc`` tool to directly run the NVPTX code generator:

.. code-block:: text

  # llc -mcpu=sm_20 kernel.ll -o kernel.ptx


.. note::

  If you want to generate 32-bit code, change ``p:64:64:64`` to ``p:32:32:32``
  in the module data layout string and use ``nvptx-nvidia-cuda`` as the
  target triple.


The output we get from ``llc`` (as of LLVM 3.4):

.. code-block:: text

  //
  // Generated by LLVM NVPTX Back-End
  //

  .version 3.1
  .target sm_20

    add.s64         %rl5, %rl4, %rl2;
    ld.param.u64    %rl6, [kernel_param_2];
    add.s64         %rl7, %rl6, %rl2;
    ld.global.f32   %f1, [%rl3];
    ld.global.f32   %f2, [%rl5];
    add.f32         %f3, %f1, %f2;
    st.global.f32   [%rl7], %f3;
    ret;
  }


Dissecting the Kernel
---------------------

Now let us dissect the LLVM IR that makes up this kernel.

Data Layout
^^^^^^^^^^^

The data layout string determines the size in bits of common data types, their
ABI alignment, and their storage size.  For NVPTX, you should use one of the
following:

32-bit PTX:

.. code-block:: llvm

  target datalayout = "e-p:32:32:32-i1:8:8-i8:8:8-i16:16:16-i32:32:32-i64:64:64-f32:32:32-f64:64:64-v16:16:16-v32:32:32-v64:64:64-v128:128:128-n16:32:64"

64-bit PTX:

.. code-block:: llvm

  target datalayout = "e-p:64:64:64-i1:8:8-i8:8:8-i16:16:16-i32:32:32-i64:64:64-f32:32:32-f64:64:64-v16:16:16-v32:32:32-v64:64:64-v128:128:128-n16:32:64"


Target Intrinsics
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In this example, we use the ``@llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.tid.x`` intrinsic to
read the X component of the current thread's ID, which corresponds to a read
of register ``%tid.x`` in PTX. The NVPTX back-end supports a large set of
intrinsics.  A short list is shown below; please see
``include/llvm/IR/IntrinsicsNVVM.td`` for the full list.


================================================ ====================
Intrinsic                                        CUDA Equivalent
================================================ ====================
``i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.tid.{x,y,z}``     threadIdx.{x,y,z}
``i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.ctaid.{x,y,z}``   blockIdx.{x,y,z}
``i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.ntid.{x,y,z}``    blockDim.{x,y,z}
``i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.nctaid.{x,y,z}``  gridDim.{x,y,z}
``void @llvm.nvvm.barrier0()``                   __syncthreads()
================================================ ====================


Address Spaces
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You may have noticed that all of the pointer types in the LLVM IR example had
an explicit address space specifier. What is address space 1? NVIDIA GPU
devices (generally) have four types of memory:

- Global: Large, off-chip memory
- Shared: Small, on-chip memory shared among all threads in a CTA
- Local: Per-thread, private memory
- Constant: Read-only memory shared across all threads

These different types of memory are represented in LLVM IR as address spaces.
There is also a fifth address space used by the NVPTX code generator that
corresponds to the "generic" address space.  This address space can represent
addresses in any other address space (with a few exceptions).  This allows
users to write IR functions that can load/store memory using the same
instructions. Intrinsics are provided to convert pointers between the generic
and non-generic address spaces.

See :ref:`address_spaces` and :ref:`nvptx_intrinsics` for more information.


Running the Kernel
------------------

Generating PTX from LLVM IR is all well and good, but how do we execute it on
a real GPU device? The CUDA Driver API provides a convenient mechanism for
loading and JIT compiling PTX to a native GPU device, and launching a kernel.
The API is similar to OpenCL.  A simple example showing how to load and
execute our vector addition code is shown below. Note that for brevity this
code does not perform much error checking!

.. note::

  You can also use the ``ptxas`` tool provided by the CUDA Toolkit to offline
  compile PTX to machine code (SASS) for a specific GPU architecture. Such
  binaries can be loaded by the CUDA Driver API in the same way as PTX. This
  can be useful for reducing startup time by precompiling the PTX kernels.

You will need to link with the CUDA driver and specify the path to cuda.h.

.. code-block:: text

  # clang++ sample.cpp -o sample -O2 -g -I/usr/local/cuda-5.5/include -lcuda

We don't need to specify a path to ``libcuda.so`` since this is installed in a
system location by the driver, not the CUDA toolkit.

If everything goes as planned, you should see the following output when
running the compiled program:

.. code-block:: text

  Using CUDA Device [0]: GeForce GTX 680
  Device Compute Capability: 3.0
  Launching kernel
  Results:
  0 + 0 = 0

  13 + 26 = 39
  14 + 28 = 42
  15 + 30 = 45

.. note::

  You will likely see a different device identifier based on your hardware


Tutorial: Linking with Libdevice
================================

In this tutorial, we show a simple example of linking LLVM IR with the
libdevice library. We will use the same kernel as the previous tutorial,
except that we will compute ``C = pow(A, B)`` instead of ``C = A + B``.
Libdevice provides an ``__nv_powf`` function that we will use.

.. code-block:: llvm

  target datalayout = "e-p:64:64:64-i1:8:8-i8:8:8-i16:16:16-i32:32:32-i64:64:64-f32:32:32-f64:64:64-v16:16:16-v32:32:32-v64:64:64-v128:128:128-n16:32:64"
  target triple = "nvptx64-nvidia-cuda"

  ; Intrinsic to read X component of thread ID
  declare i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.tid.x() readnone nounwind
  ; libdevice function
  declare float @__nv_powf(float, float)

  define ptx_kernel void @kernel(ptr addrspace(1) %A,
                                 ptr addrspace(1) %B,
                                 ptr addrspace(1) %C) {
  entry:
    ; What is my ID?
    %id = tail call i32 @llvm.nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.tid.x() readnone nounwind

    ; Compute pointers into A, B, and C
    %ptrA = getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %A, i32 %id
    %ptrB = getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %B, i32 %id
    %ptrC = getelementptr float, ptr addrspace(1) %C, i32 %id

    ; Read A, B
    %valA = load float, ptr addrspace(1) %ptrA, align 4
    %valB = load float, ptr addrspace(1) %ptrB, align 4

    ; Compute C = pow(A, B)
    %valC = call float @__nv_powf(float %valA, float %valB)

    ; Store back to C
    store float %valC, ptr addrspace(1) %ptrC, align 4

    ret void
  }


To compile this kernel, we perform the following steps:

1. Link with libdevice
2. Internalize all but the public kernel function
3. Run ``NVVMReflect`` and set ``__CUDA_FTZ`` to 0
4. Optimize the linked module
5. Codegen the module


These steps can be performed by the LLVM ``llvm-link``, ``opt``, and ``llc``
tools. In a complete compiler, these steps can also be performed entirely
programmatically by setting up an appropriate pass configuration (see
:ref:`libdevice`).

.. code-block:: text

  # llvm-link t2.bc libdevice.compute_20.10.bc -o t2.linked.bc
  # opt -internalize -internalize-public-api-list=kernel -nvvm-reflect-list=__CUDA_FTZ=0 -nvvm-reflect -O3 t2.linked.bc -o t2.opt.bc
  # llc -mcpu=sm_20 t2.opt.bc -o t2.ptx

.. note::

  The ``-nvvm-reflect-list=_CUDA_FTZ=0`` is not strictly required, as any
  undefined variables will default to zero. It is shown here for evaluation
  purposes.


This gives us the following PTX (excerpt):
