## Motivation and context
Copy regions can retain constant-valued expressions after variable
substitution. Converting those expressions directly to Python integers
rejects valid slices even though their extents are statically known.
## Changes
- Simplify swizzled-region extents before converting them to Python
integers.
- Continue rejecting genuinely symbolic extents.
- Add a hardware-independent regression to the existing layout test
suite.
## Testing
- `python -m pytest tests/python/tirx/test_layout.py`
- Changed-files pre-commit checks
## Motivation and context
`tcgen05.ld/st` with a `.16x*b` atom accesses one 16-row half-slab from
each 32-row TMEM partition owned by a warp. Across a four-warp
warpgroup, the two physical half-slabs are:
| View | Physical TMEM lanes | PTX row immediate |
|---|---|---|
| lower half | `0..15, 32..47, 64..79, 96..111` | `0` |
| upper half | `16..31, 48..63, 80..95, 112..127` | `16` |
Layout D for an M=128 accumulator occupies both halves. Layout F exposes
an M=64 logical tile over one half, which is useful both for a native
M=64 accumulator and for reading either 64-row half of an existing
Layout D accumulator.
Before this PR, `tmem_datapath_layout("F", 64, cols)` could describe
only the lower half. The copy dispatcher classified a TMEM buffer only
as `"D"` or `"F"` and every M=64 `.16x*b` operation started at `row=0`.
As a result, there was no layout-preserving way to create a recognized
64-row view of the upper half of a Layout D accumulator: a normal Layout
F view still addressed the lower half, while a hand-written `+16@TLane`
layout was not recognized by the dispatcher.
The half-slab selection belongs in the buffer layout because layout is
the source of truth for physical placement in TIRx. It should not be an
out-of-band `copy_async` option. This PR therefore records the selection
in Layout F, carries it through datapath classification, and derives the
PTX row immediate from it.
A related invariant is that a default M=128 TMEM allocation must be
structurally identical to named Layout D. The dispatcher recognizes
datapaths structurally, so keeping a separate hand-written default
layout creates an unnecessary drift risk. This PR makes the default call
the public Layout D factory directly.
Finally, the register-side `tcgen05_atom_layout` must agree with the PTX
mapping from a logical `(row, col)` to `(laneid, wid_in_wg, register)`.
A self-consistent load/store round trip is not enough to prove that
mapping: raw PTX can move the same bits back even when the logical
layout label is wrong. Elementwise dispatch does consume that label, so
this PR adds direct mapping and elementwise compilation fences for all
`.16x*b` atom families. These are coverage additions; the production
atom-layout construction itself is unchanged here.
## Changes
- Add `sub_slab={0,1}` to `tmem_datapath_layout("F", ...)`.
- Encode the upper view as a `+16@TLane` offset and reject invalid
selectors, including nonzero selectors for Layout D.
- Classify TMEM layouts as `(datapath, sub_slab)` and emit `.16x*b` with
`row=(sub_slab + slab) * 16`.
- Preserve the existing M=128 behavior: Layout D with a 128-row `.16x*b`
fragment still emits two operations at rows `0` and `16`.
- Build the default M=128 TMEM layout through `tmem_datapath_layout("D",
...)`.
- Document the physical lane mapping and supported datapath/atom
combinations.
- Add direct atom-layout mapping coverage and a warpgroup elementwise
regression.
## Testing
- Static Layout F checks cover every logical row for both `sub_slab=0`
and `sub_slab=1`.
- B200 readback tests populate one Layout D accumulator, then verify
that lower and upper Layout F views reproduce the two corresponding
register halves for `.16x64b`, `.16x128b`, and `.16x256b`.
- Negative tests cover invalid sub-slab values and incompatible
datapath/atom pairings.
- Direct `(row, col) -> (laneid, wid_in_wg, register)` sweeps cover
supported `.16x*b` shapes and repetitions.
- Warpgroup elementwise codegen verifies that an atom-layout fragment
canonicalizes and slices correctly.
- Changed-files pre-commit checks.
## Motivation and context
A TIRx pointer carries two pieces of information that later lowering
needs: the pointee element type and the storage scope. Both must survive
when a pointer-producing expression is assigned to a Python name and
then used as the backing storage of a buffer.
A concrete example is accessing an mbarrier in another CTA through
distributed shared memory:
```python
ptr_ty = PointerType(PrimType("uint64"), "shared")
remote_ptr = T.reinterpret(
ptr_ty,
T.ptx.map_shared_rank(mbar.ptr_to([0]), T.int32(0)),
)
remote_mbar = T.decl_buffer(
[1], "uint64", data=remote_ptr, scope="shared"
)
```
`map_shared_rank` returns the raw `uint64` address produced by PTX
`mapa`, and `reinterpret` gives that address the intended
`PointerType(uint64, shared)`. Because `decl_buffer(data=...)` requires
a pointer `Var`, assigning the expression to `remote_ptr` should create
an immutable typed pointer binding.
Before this PR, an unannotated assignment such as `remote_ptr = <pointer
expression>` followed the same parser path as a numeric assignment. That
path allocates a mutable local scalar and therefore cannot represent a
`PointerType`. The pointer expression could not be carried as a
correctly typed `Var` into `decl_buffer` and CUDA lowering.
This PR makes an unannotated pointer-valued assignment emit a TIRx
`Bind`. The bound `Var` has exactly the type of the right-hand side,
including its element type and storage scope. Pointer bindings are
immutable, so reassignment in the same scope is diagnosed; shadowing a
name supplied through `extra_vars` remains valid. Numeric assignments
keep their existing mutable-local behavior.
## Type propagation fixes
The parser fix exposed several other boundaries where pointer type
information must remain consistent:
| Boundary | Previous behavior | Behavior after this PR |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Unannotated pointer assignment | Tried to materialize the value as a
local scalar | Emits an immutable `Bind` with the RHS `PointerType` |
| `address_of(buffer)` / `buffer.ptr_to(...)` | Reused the raw backing
pointer type | Returns a pointer to `buffer.dtype` while preserving the
backing pointer storage scope |
| `tvm_access_ptr` / `ptr_byte_offset` | Accepted strings or annotation
expressions, but not a `PrimType` object directly | Accepts `PrimType`
and produces the corresponding typed pointer |
| Printed `T.ptx.mapa` call | The printer emits all intrinsic attributes
positionally, but the Python helper required keyword-only arguments |
Accepts the canonical printed form so pointer code round-trips through
TVMScript |
The `address_of` distinction matters for typed views over byte-addressed
storage. For example, if a `float32` buffer is backed by a `uint8*`
allocation in `shared.dyn`, the address of a buffer element must be
`PointerType(float32, shared.dyn)`, not `PointerType(uint8,
shared.dyn)`.
With these changes, the DSMEM example above round-trips through
TVMScript and CUDA codegen declares the remote buffer pointer as
`uint64_t*`.
## TMA dtype normalization
This PR also contains a small, separate type-representation fix in TMA
descriptor construction. `TmaPlan.elem_dtype` is a string consumed by
the host-side `runtime.cuTensorMapEncodeTiled` packed call, but
`_assemble_plan` stored `g_buf.dtype`, which is a `PrimType`. Converting
it with `str(g_buf.dtype)` ensures that the generated packed-call
argument is `StringImm("float16")` rather than an IR type object. This
does not change the pointer-binding semantics described above.
## Testing
- Verify that an unannotated pointer expression creates a `Bind` whose
`Var` type matches the RHS type.
- Verify that pointer reassignment is rejected while shadowing an
`extra_vars` name is allowed.
- Verify parser/printer structural round-tripping for the pointer
binding and canonical `T.ptx.mapa` call.
- Verify that `address_of` uses the logical buffer element type and
preserves the storage scope for byte-backed buffer views.
- Verify that `tvm_access_ptr` and `ptr_byte_offset` accept `PrimType`
inputs.
- Compile the DSMEM `map_shared_rank` example through the CUDA TIRx
pipeline and check for a typed `uint64_t*` remote buffer pointer.
- Verify that the TMA host initialization passes the descriptor dtype as
a `StringImm`.
## Motivation and context
`TilePrimitiveCallNode` participates in FFI reflection but did not
provide the unsafe-init constructor required to reconstruct an object
during deserialization.
## Changes
- Add the reflection unsafe-init constructor to `TilePrimitiveCallNode`.
- Add a pickle round-trip regression that preserves arguments,
workspace, config, dispatch, and execution scope.
## Testing
- `python -m pytest tests/python/tirx/test_op.py`
- Changed-files pre-commit checks
## Motivation and context
`MBarrier.remote_view(rank)` represents an mbarrier owned by another CTA
in the same cluster. The existing view kept only a buffer whose pointer
had been mapped to the remote CTA with PTX `mapa`. Calling
`remote_bar.arrive(...)` then followed the inherited local-arrive path
and emitted the local `mbarrier.arrive.shared.b64` form against that
mapped remote address.
A remote arrival must instead use the `shared::cluster` instruction
form. TIRx models that form with the owner-local barrier pointer plus
the destination CTA rank and predicate. Using the local instruction with
a remote address is not equivalent and is reported by synccheck as a
local arrival on a remote mbarrier address.
## Changes
- Keep the owner-local buffer and target CTA rank when constructing a
remote mbarrier view.
- Route `MBarrier` remote arrivals through the cluster helper using the
local barrier pointer and stored CTA rank.
- Apply the same routing to `TMABar`, including
`mbarrier.arrive.expect_tx`.
- Keep a typed `PointerType(uint64, shared)` mapped buffer on the view
so `ptr_to` remains available to operations that explicitly consume a
remote shared-memory pointer.
- Reject operations with ambiguous or invalid ownership semantics:
- initializing or waiting on a remote view,
- supplying another `cta_id` to a view that already fixes its target,
- creating a remote view from another remote view.
- Preserve the existing local-CTA behavior for ordinary barriers.
## Testing
- Verify the typed `mapa` binding and remote buffer in TIRx IR.
- Verify CUDA codegen for plain and counted
`mbarrier.arrive.shared::cluster.b64` forms.
- Verify CUDA codegen for remote
`mbarrier.arrive.expect_tx.shared::cluster.b64`.
- Verify that the corresponding local instruction forms are not emitted
for remote views.
- Verify diagnostics for remote init, wait, nested views, and
conflicting `cta_id` arguments.
- Run changed-files pre-commit checks.
Focused result: 3 tests passed.
This PR fixes invalid pointer arithmetic emitted by C-family codegen for
vector-typed `tvm_access_ptr`.
A vector access pointer is lowered to `address_of(BufferLoad(...))` with
a `Ramp` index describing its lane indices. For example, `Ramp(4, 1, 2)`
represents scalar elements `[4, 5]`, so its address should be the
address of the first lane, `&A[4]`.
LLVM codegen already extracts `Ramp::base` in this case. However,
`CodeGenC` previously passed the complete ramp to pointer arithmetic,
which could generate invalid CUDA code such as:
```cpp
(float*)A + make_int2(4, 5)
```
This PR makes `CodeGenC` use `Ramp::base` when generating the address of
a vector `BufferLoad`. The normalized index is applied to both the
direct pointer-offset path and the general `GetBufferRef` path.
The existing scalar-buffer plus `Ramp` lowering is preserved. This
avoids regressions for padded vector types such as `float32x3` and
packed vector types such as `int4x4`, while making C-family codegen
consistent with LLVM codegen.
Regression tests cover:
- `float32x2` C codegen.
- Padded `float32x3` LLVM codegen.
- Packed `int4x4` CUDA codegen.
Return is control flow, but TIRx currently represents it as an
Evaluate-wrapped intrinsic call. This prevents return values from
participating naturally in statement traversal and requires special-case
handling across the pipeline.
This change introduces a reflected tirx.Return statement carrying an
Expr, wires it through TVMScript, statement visitors and mutators,
lowering, storage planning, and C/LLVM code generation, and removes the
legacy tirx.ret and T.ret surfaces.
## Summary
Compiler Targets can carry device-type semantics that runtime
device-name parsing does not preserve.
- add `tvm.device_from_target` for canonical Target-to-Device
translation
- use explicit runtime constructors where the device kind is fixed
- update target-derived utilities, tests, and documentation to use the
explicit boundary
This PR removes the suite-wide TIRx compute-capability gate and
localizes hardware skips to CUDA codegen and tile-primitive tests. It
keeps the original test parameterization unchanged, allowing parser,
printer, IR, transform, and other non-hardware TIRx tests to run in
regular CI while device-dependent cases are skipped when SM100 hardware
is unavailable. CUDA codegen helpers use explicit target architectures
where needed, and the run-only benchmark utility tests retain a local
SM100 gate.
This intentionally avoids adding separate compile/run parameter cases. A
follow-up PR can audit slow frontend execution tests and define a
focused runtime regression budget for real TIRx kernels.
Local validation:
- `pytest -n auto -m "not gpu" tests/python/tirx`: 486 passed, 79
skipped.
- `pytest -n auto -m gpu tests/python/tirx` without matching hardware:
1509 skipped.
- Pre-commit passed on all changed files.
## Summary
- Keep the Python test launcher close to plain `pytest -n auto`, move
nightly tests under `tests/nightly/python`, remove obsolete launchers
and collection bookkeeping, and partition CPU/GPU jobs with explicit
`gpu` marker expressions.
- Repair exact-pointer regressions at their owning boundaries: packed
raw-string ABI values, CUDA/Metal matrix intrinsic pointers, internal TE
extern offsets, MetaSchedule scalar annotations, localized
auto-tensorization scope matching, and typed DLTensor fixture fields.
- Preserve typed workspace calls in TIR and cast pointer-returning
external calls in CodeGenC, covered by a plain-TIRx 1024-byte global
workspace that is compiled as C++.
- Finish phasing out value-bearing Relax `R.Prim` annotations by
requiring an explicit dtype, removing obsolete value-based contracts,
and expressing the DISCO rank-dependent slices as explicit scalar
`call_tir` inputs.
- Gate the distributed callback on the optional DISCO runtime, NCCL, and
at least two GPUs so capability-limited jobs skip instead of failing.
- Remove the non-demonstrating pointer probe, use direct TVMScript
comparison for packed strings, and remove the four designated legacy
testing modules.
The seven repaired CPU categories cover packed raw strings (7 failures),
CUDA/Metal matrix access-pointer types (7), internal TE extern offsets
(1), a typed DLTensor fixture (1), MetaSchedule scalar annotations (1),
CodeGenC workspace return casts (12), and localized auto-tensorization
storage-scope matching (19).

sketch pass unchanged.
- The compiler rebuild, branch-wide pre-commit hooks, and full-range
whitespace checks pass.

No merge is included in this change.
Add tvm.testing.run_with_gpu_lock backed by the existing
tvm_ffi.utils.FileLock. Migrate live local GPU tests to acquire the
machine-local lock around device execution, synchronization, host
transfer, and checks while leaving target construction and compilation
outside the critical section.
Replace the custom xdist scheduler with standard xdist_group placement
for the order-dependent test family. RPC tests retain dynamic port
allocation and per-test process isolation rather than gaining a broad
category lock.
## Rationale
`SizeVar` encodes nonnegativity in runtime subtype identity, which is
fragile under cloning and remapping. Symbolic integer values should use
one `Var` representation, with nonnegative facts recorded in the
analyzer at the use sites that establish them.
## Changes
- Remove `SizeVar` from the C++, Python, TE, TVMScript, FFI, visitor,
and serialization surfaces, and migrate callers to `Var`.
- Preserve the existing Relax constraint ownership model and use
`MarkGlobalNonNegValue` as the canonical path for global nonnegative
facts.
- Preserve `T.handle()` as the normal opaque-handle form. An optional
dtype constructs a typed pointer, with `T.handle("void")` reserved for
an explicit pointer-to-void.
## Summary
- Make `PrimExpr` a typed C++ view over `Expr` values whose
`ExprNode::ty` is `PrimType`, instead of using a separate runtime node
class as the proof of primitive-ness.
- Use the shared `ir::Call` node for Relax, TIRX, and primitive-valued
calls, while keeping primitive-only APIs explicit at their semantic
boundaries.
- Keep Python on the general `Expr` surface for primitive-typed values
so `isinstance` behavior does not imply a nominal primitive-expression
subclass.
## Design Rationale
The main advantage of this change is that common expression nodes such
as `Call` can be unified without specializing each one to `PrimType`. A
single `ir::Call` can represent a Relax tensor call, a Relax scalar
call, or a primitive-valued intrinsic call; the result type stored in
`ExprNode::ty` determines whether that particular value can be viewed as
`PrimExpr`.
This keeps the IR node hierarchy focused on expression structure rather
than result-type categories. Nodes that are intrinsically primitive,
such as integer and floating-point literals or TIRX primitive operators,
still have strongly typed C++ APIs and data structures. General nodes
whose result type may vary, such as `Call`, remain general `Expr` nodes
and are narrowed to `PrimExpr` only where primitive-only semantics are
required.
The PR also keeps the compatibility surface practical: C++
primitive-only APIs continue to accept `PrimExpr`, Python exposes a
compatibility predicate for checking the primitive typed category, and
visitors/printers use one natural `Call` path rather than duplicating
Relax and primitive call handling. Missing expression types are
represented explicitly with `Type::Missing()` so constructors can leave
type inference to later analysis without relying on nullable `Type`
values.
## Why
BufferReplacer passed strides and elem_offset through unchanged, so vars
in them were never substituted
## How
- Visit and rewrite each strides `expr` and `elem_offset` when
rebuilding the buffer.
- Add test covering the fix.

## Summary
Backend loading is easier to maintain when native backend library
discovery, in-tree backend Python hook loading, and out-of-tree entry
point autoload are owned by the backend namespace. This PR consolidates
those paths under `tvm.backend._autoload_backends` while preserving
compatibility routes from the previous top-level helper and
`tvm.base.load_backend_libs`.
- Move backend runtime DSO loading into `tvm.backend._autoload_backends`
- Route `backend.load_all()` through the backend autoload helper
- Keep the previous top-level `_autoload_backends` module as a thin
compatibility import
This PR batches several post-bringup TIRx follow-ups, rebased onto
current `main`.
### Changes
- **op-dispatch**: per-call exec scope via `Tx.<scope>.op`; remove
`ExecScopeStmt`
- **namespaces**: split TIRx op namespaces; remove tile-primitive kind
attrs
- **codegen**: support explicit CUDA launch bounds
- **gemm-async**: support contiguous-axis (K-major) operand slicing
- **backend reorg**: move in-tree GPU backends out of core into
`src/backend/<target>/` and `python/tvm/backend/<target>/`
(codegen/runtime/op), with the corresponding `CMakeLists.txt` /
`cmake/modules` and include-path updates
### Testing
- Builds with `USE_CUDA=ON` / `USE_LLVM=ON`
- The TIRx Python test suite (`tests/python/tirx/`) passes locally
Validating the apache-tvm wheel in a minimal environment (no torch,
scipy, cloudpickle, or tornado installed) produced 33 pytest collection
errors from module-level imports of optional packages. Add
pytest.importorskip guards so these modules are reported as skipped
instead of erroring during collection.
Indirect import chains guarded:
- tvm.topi.testing imports scipy
- tvm.s_tir.meta_schedule.testing.local_rpc (tvm.rpc.tracker) requires
tornado
- tvm.s_tir.dlight.benchmark imports cloudpickle
Also remove a stray pre-license-header `import pytest` in
test_runtime_builtin_paged_attention_kv_cache_flashinfer.py.
## Summary
Follow-up work on top of the TIRx infrastructure bring-up (#19581). It
extends the TIRx operator-dispatch, codegen, and TVMScript surfaces with
the next batch of low-level programming features for Blackwell-class
GPUs, while keeping `s_tir` script support intact.
## Main Changes
- **op-dispatch**: warp `ldmatrix`/`stmatrix` copy dispatch; split CUDA
copy into register / gmem-smem / `ldgsts` paths; `tcgen05.ld/st`
`.16x{64,128,256}b` dispatch with a factory and M=128 layout;
element-wise broadcast at the layout level with a copy vec-alignment
fix.
- **gemm**: CUDA synchronous `mma.sync` tensor-core dispatch; accept a
Layout F C operand for M=64 MMAs.
- **op**: add the `permute_layout` primitive (replaces `permute_dims`).
- **tvmscript**: add the `Tx.jit` decorator, `Tx.constexpr` compile-time
params, and `Tx.wg_reg_tile`.
- **lower-tirx**: introduce the `Tx.device_entry()` marker (replacing
`ScopeKind::kKernel`); canonical thread filters that drop the
`Tx.filter` wrapper.
- **codegen**: add a typed-pointer byte-offset intrinsic; remove the
`entry_cluster_sync` codegen attribute.

## Local CI Notes
Several full CI-equivalent jobs are not locally reproducible because
this machine is missing parts of the Apache TVM CI environment (e.g.,
specific `llvm-config` versions, Vulkan, ROCm, ARM/QEMU cross-toolchain,
and web/wasm components). The Blackwell/Trainium kernel tests are
maintained downstream and are intentionally not part of this PR.
test_transform_lower_tirx.py imports and calls Simplify, but the pass is
named StmtSimplify (the only simplify pass exported from
tvm.tirx.transform). The stale name makes the module fail to import at
collection time. Use StmtSimplify so the test collects and runs.
## Background
The `tvm::ir` layer previously had a reverse dependency on
`tvm::script`, injected via the `TVM_OBJECT_ENABLE_SCRIPT_PRINTER()`
macro that added a `Script()` member method to IR node types (IRModule,
PrimExpr, Buffer, PrimFunc, Stmt). This violated the intended one-way
dependency: `script` should depend on `ir`, never the other way around.
Additionally, `PrinterConfigNode` accumulated dialect-specific fields
(`tir_prefix`, `tir_import_module`, `tirx_prefix`, `relax_prefix`) that
created leakage between the generic printer infrastructure and dialect
internals.
## Changes
This PR restores the clean dependency direction and encapsulates dialect
config properly, in 5 commits:
1. **Lift TVMScript entry point into `script/printer/printer.h`**: New
header `include/tvm/script/printer/printer.h` introduces:
- `tvm::Script()` free function replacing `TVMScriptPrinter::Script()`
static method
- `TVMScriptPrinter` class with vtable (`NodeFunctor<std::string(...)>`)
- `TVM_REGISTER_SCRIPT_AS_REPR` macro for registering per-type repr
callbacks
2. **Drop `TVM_OBJECT_ENABLE_SCRIPT_PRINTER` macro**: Remove the macro
from all IR headers (`ir/expr.h`, `ir/module.h`, `tirx/buffer.h`,
`tirx/function.h`, `tirx/stmt.h`), eliminating the reverse `ir` →
`script` dependency. All call sites of `.Script()` member methods
updated to use `tvm::Script()`.
3. **Move dialect-specific `PrinterConfig` fields to `extra_config`**:
Remove `tir_prefix`, `tir_import_module`, `tirx_prefix`, `relax_prefix`
from `PrinterConfigNode`. Dialect internals now read their config via
`GetExtraConfig<T>(key, fallback)` with dotted keys (e.g.,
`"tirx.prefix"`). `buffer_dtype` is kept as a top-level field alongside
`int_dtype`/`float_dtype` since it is a shared scalar-literal default,
not a dialect-specific knob.
4. **Python: drop dialect kwargs, expose `extra_config`**: Update
`PrinterConfig`, `Scriptable.script()`, `Scriptable.show()`,
`Scriptable._relax_script()`, and `BasePyModule.script()` to use
`extra_config: dict | None = None` instead of individual dialect kwargs.
The tirx auto-switch logic is preserved.
5. **Fix transitive include breakage**: Explicitly add direct includes
for `config.h` and `node_functor.h` where headers previously relied on
transitive paths through `expr.h`/`module.h`.

## Summary
Lifts 10 host-toolchain / CLI / process / utility modules from
`python/tvm/contrib/` to a new `python/tvm/support/` package, and
deletes two dead contrib shims.
`tvm.support` is the home for Python helpers that integrate TVM with
external CLIs and host-side tools — compilers, archivers, subprocess
pools, and build-info queries. These are load-bearing internal pieces
that TVM's compile/link/run paths depend on. `tvm.contrib` is reserved
for optional vendor SDK integrations and experimental features. The
distinction is documented in the `tvm.support` package docstring.

- `tvm.contrib.tar` → `tvm.support.tar`
Deleted:
- `tvm.contrib.spirv` — single `optimize()` wrapping `spirv-opt`; zero
importers.
- `tvm.contrib.rpc` — self-deprecation shim with "removed in 0.5"
banner; honoring it.
Package conversion:
- `python/tvm/support.py` → `python/tvm/support/__init__.py` with
inclusion-rule docstring.
- `libinfo()` extracted into `python/tvm/support/libinfo.py`.
- `FrontendTestModule` dropped (audit confirmed zero callers outside its
own definition).
## Compatibility
Hard break — no `tvm.contrib.<mod>` re-export shims. All callers updated
in this PR.
C++-side FFI registry keys (`tvm.contrib.nvcc.*`, etc.) are unchanged —
only the Python module path moves. Renaming the FFI keys is a separate
follow-up.
## Summary
This PR cleans up technical debt in the TIR simplification machinery via
two commits:
**Commit 1: Phase out ControlFlowGraph and NarrowPredicateExpression**
- Remove `ControlFlowGraph` (~2360 lines) from `src/tirx/analysis/` —
used only in
non-default config paths that are no longer maintained
- Remove `NarrowPredicateExpression` from `src/arith/` — sole non-test
caller was `ControlFlowGraph`
- Remove gated config fields `propagate_knowns_to_prove_conditional` and
`propagate_knowns_to_simplify_expressions` from `SimplifyConfig`
- Remove `use_dataflow_analysis` from `RemoveNoOpConfig`
- Delete the associated test files and test cases that tested the
now-removed paths
- ~3800 lines deleted
**Commit 2: Rename Simplify → StmtSimplify**
- Rename `src/tirx/transform/simplify.{h,cc}` → `stmt_simplify.{h,cc}`
- Rename C++ identifiers: `Simplify` → `StmtSimplify`, `SimplifyConfig`
→ `StmtSimplifyConfig`
- Rename FFI keys: `"tirx.Simplify"` → `"tirx.StmtSimplify"`,
`"tirx.transform.Simplify"` → `"tirx.transform.StmtSimplify"`
- Update Python wrappers and all call sites (~40 files)
- Clarifies that this pass operates on statements (distinct from
expression-level `arith::Analyzer::Simplify()`)
## Test plan
- [x] `tests/python/tirx-transform/test_tir_transform_simplify.py` — 52
tests pass
- [x] `tests/python/tirx-transform/test_tir_transform_remove_no_op.py` —
18 pass, 5 xfail
- [x] `tests/python/arith/` — full arith test suite passes
- [x] `tests/python/tirx-transform/` — full suite: 315 passed, 8
xfailed, 1 xpassed (pre-existing vectorize failure unrelated to this
change)
- [x] `pre-commit run --all-files` — all hooks pass
## Summary
This PR adds the initial TIRx support needed for low-level programming
of Blackwell-class GPU architectures. As part of the ongoing TIRx
refactor, it introduces TVMScript support for directly scripting
advanced hardware features without relying on scheduling as the primary
programming interface.
The change keeps existing `s_tir` script support intact while making
direct scripting a first-class path for TIRx programs.
## Main Changes
- Add TIRx operator dispatch and layout infrastructure.
- Add TVMScript support for new low-level TIRx operations.
- Add analysis, transform, and lowering support for TIRx IR nodes.
- Add CUDA/Blackwell-oriented codegen and intrinsic coverage.
- Add Python and C++ integration points for TIRx scripting and runtime
support.
## Validation
- `pre-commit run --all-files`
- `ninja -C build -j32`
- `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=2 pytest tests/python/tirx/ -n 16`
- `1723 passed, 47 skipped, 32 warnings`
- `CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=2 python -m pytest -v
tests/python/all-platform-minimal-test`
- `37 passed, 105 skipped`
- `TVM_TEST_TARGETS=llvm python -m pytest -v tests/python/tirx-analysis
tests/python/tirx-base tests/python/tirx-transform -n 16`
- `664 passed, 25 skipped, 9 xfailed, 1 xpassed`
## Local CI Notes
Some full CI-equivalent jobs were not locally reproducible because this
machine is missing parts of the Apache TVM CI environment, including
`llvm-config-15/17`, Vulkan, ROCm, Maven, Sphinx, Doxygen, Emscripten,
and ARM/QEMU cross-toolchain components. Metal-specific tests were
skipped locally because no Metal runtime is available.
