## 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.
This PR brings up the tirx namespace. We have been spliting out the
original tir namespace to include high-level component s_tir and this PR
updates the remaining low-level part as tirx namespace
This PR renames tir.Block to SBlock. This clearly indicate the
scheduable property of the block and is a prereq for followup stir
passes refactor.
Main changes:
- Data structure change from Block to SBlock
- Syntax change from T.block to T.sblock
This PR starts the step 0 to phase out relay from the current
development main branch. This PR focuses on the python
components of relay, autotvm, auto_scheduler. To make the change
manageable, we will also do followup steps on te.Schedule and
c++ components in followup PRs.
To continue support community members who depends on
legacy flows, the [v0.19.0](https://github.com/apache/tvm/tree/v0.19.0)
branch will continue contain these components.
As noted in [discussion on phasing out legacy components](https://discuss.tvm.apache.org/t/phasing-out-legacy-components/17703/30),
this would help us to do two purposes:
- By removing outdated or redundant elements, we can significantly
reduce complexity and improve maintainability.
- Unify our focus: Concentrating our efforts on the new unity flow
will allow for more efficient development and innovation.
It is also a good opportunity for us to revisit and reduce CI time.
The past relay legacy flow contains a lot of end to end tests that
requires hardware resources to run and causing long CI time.
Moving onwards, we can focus more on unit-tests that focuses
on structural equality and runs within seconds, while be mindful
about tests that requires hardware resources (by restricting them
to specific folders and CI nightly in some cases).

* [TVMScript] Avoid segfault from invalid TVMScript
Prior to this commit, after the `DiagnosticContext` prints its error,
it overwrites the `DiagnosticRenderer` with a NULL renderer. If a
second call to `DiagnosticContext::Render` occurs, it will segfault.
This appears to be intended to prevent double-printing of error
messages, but double-printing error messages is much worse than a
segfault.
In addition, `DiagnosticContext::Render` should only be called once.
There's a common pattern in the parser where it will wrap exceptions
in `DiagnosticError`, but re-raise exceptions that are already a
`DiagnosticError`. This requires every such location to include
`except DiagnosticError: raise`, and can easily be missed.
This PR makes two changes: First, the `DiagnosticRenderer` is updated
to have a no-op callback rather than a NULL callback. Second, the
re-raising of `DiagnosticError` is moved to `Parser.report_error`, so
that it does not need to be handled separately at several independent
locations in the TVMScript parser.
The current unittest folder is too large and contains too many files and
too many components. This PR refactors the unittest folder by moving the
files to the corresponding folders.
