Summary:
In the original design, gpu.launch required explicit capture of uses
and passing them as operands to the gpu.launch operation. This was
motivated by infrastructure restrictions rather than design. This
change lifts the requirement and removes the concept of kernel
arguments from gpu.launch. Instead, the kernel outlining
transformation now does the explicit capturing.
This is a breaking change for users of gpu.launch.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D73769
The current lowering of loops to GPU only supports lowering of loop
nests where the loops mapped to workgroups and workitems are perfectly
nested. Here a new lowering is added to handle lowering of imperfectly
nested loop body with the following properties
1) The loops partitioned to workgroups are perfectly nested.
2) The loop body of the inner most loop partitioned to workgroups can
contain one or more loop nests that are to be partitioned across
workitems. Each individual loops nests partitioned to workitems should
also be perfectly nested.
3) The number of workgroups and workitems are not deduced from the
loop bounds but are passed in by the caller of the lowering as values.
4) For statements within the perfectly nested loop nest partitioned
across workgroups that are not loops, it is valid to have all threads
execute that statement. This is NOT verified.
