[mlir][ArithToAMDGPU] Add option for saturating truncation to fp8 (#74153) Many machine-learning applications (and most software written at AMD) expect the operation that truncates floats to 8-bit floats to be saturatinng. That is, they expect `truncf 256.0 : f32 to f8E4M3FNUZ` to yield `240.0`, not `NaN`, and similarly for negative numbers. However, the underlying hardware instruction that can be used for this truncation implements overflow-to-NaN semantics. To enable handling this usecase, we add the saturate-fp8-truncf option to ArithToAMDGPU (off by default), which causes the requisite clamping code to be emitted. Said clamping code ensures that Inf and NaN are passed through exactly (and thus trancate to NaN). Per review feedback, this commit efactors createScalarOrSplatConstant() to the Arith dialect utilities and uses it in this code. It also fixes naming of existing patterns and switches from vector.extractelement/insertelement to vector.extract/insert.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
