Julian Gross 06b03800f3 [mlir] Introduce CloneOp and adapt test cases in BufferDeallocation.
Add a new clone operation to the memref dialect. This operation implicitly
copies data from a source buffer to a new buffer. In contrast to the linalg.copy
operation, this operation does not accept a target buffer as an argument.
Instead, this operation performs a conceptual allocation which does not need to
be performed manually.

Furthermore, this operation resolves the dependency from the linalg-dialect
in the BufferDeallocation pass. In addition, we also extended the canonicalization
patterns to fold clone operations. The copy removal pass has been removed.

Mehdi Amini 973ddb7d6e Define a `NoTerminator` traits that allows operations with a single block region to not provide a terminator
In particular for Graph Regions, the terminator needs is just a
historical artifact of the generalization of MLIR from CFG region.
Operations like Module don't need a terminator, and before Module
migrated to be an operation with region there wasn't any needed.

To validate the feature, the ModuleOp is migrated to use this trait and
the ModuleTerminator operation is deleted.

This patch is likely to break clients, if you're in this case:

- you may iterate on a ModuleOp with `getBody()->without_terminator()`,
  the solution is simple: just remove the ->without_terminator!
- you created a builder with `Builder::atBlockTerminator(module_body)`,
  just use `Builder::atBlockEnd(module_body)` instead.
- you were handling ModuleTerminator: it isn't needed anymore.
- for generic code, a `Block::mayNotHaveTerminator()` may be used.

Alex Zinenko b3386a734e [mlir] introduce data layout entry for index type
Index type is an integer type of target-specific bitwidth present in many MLIR
operations (loops, memory accesses). Converting values of this type to
fixed-size integers has always been problematic. Introduce a data layout entry
to specify the bitwidth of `index` in a given layout scope, defaulting to 64
bits, which is a commonly used assumption, e.g., in constants.

Port builtin-to-LLVM type conversion to use this data layout entry when
converting `index` type and untie it from pointer size. This is particularly
relevant for GPU targets. Keep a possibility to forcibly override the index
type in lowerings.

Alex Zinenko 1916b0e098 [mlir] support data layout specs on ModuleOp
ModuleOp is a natural place to provide scoped data layout information. However,
it is undesirable for ModuleOp to implement the entirety of
DataLayoutOpInterface because that would require either pushing the interface
inside the IR library instead of a separate library, or putting the default
implementation of the interface as inline functions in headers leading to
binary bloat. Instead, ModuleOp accepts an arbitrary data layout spec attribute
and has a dedicated hook to extract it, and DataLayout is modified to know
about ModuleOp particularities.

Mehdi Amini d905c10353 Add a mechanism for Dialects to provide a fallback for OpInterface
This mechanism makes it possible for a dialect to not register all
operations but still answer interface-based queries.
This can useful for dialects that are "open" or connected to an external
system and still interoperate with the compiler. It can also open up the
possibility to have a more extensible compiler at runtime: the compiler
does not need a pre-registration for each operation and the dialect can

Alex Zinenko 3ba14fa0ce [mlir] Introduce data layout modeling subsystem
Data layout information allows to answer questions about the size and alignment
properties of a type. It enables, among others, the generation of various
linear memory addressing schemes for containers of abstract types and deeper
reasoning about vectors. This introduces the subsystem for modeling data
layouts in MLIR.

The data layout subsystem is designed to scale to MLIR's open type and
operation system. At the top level, it consists of attribute interfaces that
can be implemented by concrete data layout specifications; type interfaces that
should be implemented by types subject to data layout; operation interfaces
that must be implemented by operations that can serve as data layout scopes
(e.g., modules); and dialect interfaces for data layout properties unrelated to
specific types. Built-in types are handled specially to decrease the overall
query cost.

A concrete default implementation of these interfaces is provided in the new
Target dialect. Defaults for built-in types that match the current behavior are
also provided.

Vladislav Vinogradov f3bf5c053b [mlir] Model MemRef memory space as Attribute
Based on the following discussion:
https://llvm.discourse.group/t/rfc-memref-memory-shape-as-attribute/2229

The goal of the change is to make memory space property to have more
expressive representation, rather then "magic" integer values.

It will allow to have more clean ASM form:

```
gpu.func @test(%arg0: memref<100xf32, "workgroup">)

// instead of

gpu.func @test(%arg0: memref<100xf32, 3>)
```

Explanation for `Attribute` choice instead of plain `string`:

* `Attribute` classes allow to use more type safe API based on RTTI.
* `Attribute` classes provides faster comparison operator based on
  pointer comparison in contrast to generic string comparison.
* `Attribute` allows to store more complex things, like structs or dictionaries.
  It will allows to have more complex memory space hierarchy.

This commit preserve old integer-based API and implements it on top
of the new one.

Stella Laurenzo e31c77b182 [mlir][python] Reorganize MLIR python into namespace packages.
* Only leaf packages are non-namespace packages. This allows most of the top levels to be split into different directories or deployment packages. In the previous state, the presence of __init__.py files at each level meant that the entire tree could only ever exist in one physical directory on the path.
* This changes the API usage slightly: `import mlir` will no longer do a deep import of `mlir.ir`, etc. This may necessitate some client code changes.
* Dialect gen code was restructured so that the user is responsible for providing the `my_dialect.py` file, which then must import its peer `_my_dialect_ops_gen`. This gives complete control of the dialect namespace to the user instead of to tablegen code, allowing further dialect-specific python APIs.
* Correspondingly, the previous extension modules `_my_dialect.py` are now `_my_dialect_ops_ext.py`.
* Now that the `linalg` namespace is open, moved the `linalg_opdsl` tool into it.
* This may require some corresponding downstream adjustments to npcomp, circt, et al:
  * Probably some shallow imports need to be converted to deep imports (i.e. not `import mlir` brings in the world).
  * Each tablegen generated dialect now needs an explicit `foo.py` which does a `from ._foo_ops_gen import *`. This is similar to the way that generated code operates in the C++ world.
  * If providing dialect op extensions, those need to be moved from `_foo.py` -> `_foo_ops_ext.py`.

River Riddle dc6a84fce6 [mlir] Add support for DebugCounters using the new DebugAction infrastructure
DebugCounters allow for selectively enabling the execution of a debug action based upon a "counter". This counter is comprised of two components that are used in the control of execution of an action, a "skip" value and a "count" value. The "skip" value is used to skip a certain number of initial executions of a debug action. The "count" value is used to prevent a debug action from executing after it has executed for a set number of times (not including any executions that have been skipped). For example, a counter for a debug action with `skip=47` and `count=2`, would skip the first 47 executions, then execute twice, and finally prevent any further executions.

This is effectively the same as the DebugCounter infrastructure in LLVM, but using the DebugAction infrastructure in MLIR. We can't simply reuse the DebugCounter support already present in LLVM due to its heavy reliance on global constructors (which are not allowed in MLIR). The DebugAction infrastructure already nicely supports the debug counter use case, and promotes the separation of policy and mechanism design philosophy.

River Riddle 72d5afa4ac [mlir] Add a new debug action framework.
This revision adds the infrastructure for `Debug Actions`. This is a DEBUG only
API that allows for external entities to control various aspects of compiler
execution. This is conceptually similar to something like DebugCounters in LLVM, but at a lower level. This framework doesn't make any assumptions about how the higher level driver is controlling the execution, it merely provides a framework for connecting the two together. This means that on top of DebugCounter functionality, we could also provide more interesting drivers such as interactive execution. A high level overview of the workflow surrounding debug actions is
shown below:

*   Compiler developer defines an `action` that is taken by the a pass,
    transformation, utility that they are developing.
*   Depending on the needs, the developer dispatches various queries, pertaining
    to this action, to an `action manager` that will provide an answer as to
    what behavior the action should do.
*   An external entity registers an `action handler` with the action manager,
    and provides the logic to resolve queries on actions.

The exact definition of an `external entity` is left opaque, to allow for more
interesting handlers.

This framework was proposed here: https://llvm.discourse.group/t/rfc-debug-actions-in-mlir-debug-counters-for-the-modern-world

River Riddle 06e25d5645 [mlir][IR] Refactor the `getChecked` and `verifyConstructionInvariants` methods on Attributes/Types
`verifyConstructionInvariants` is intended to allow for verifying the invariants of an attribute/type on construction, and `getChecked` is intended to enable more graceful error handling aside from an assert. There are a few problems with the current implementation of these methods:
* `verifyConstructionInvariants` requires an mlir::Location for emitting errors, which is prohibitively costly in the situations that would most likely use them, e.g. the parser.
This creates an unfortunate code duplication between the verifier code and the parser code, given that the parser operates on llvm::SMLoc and it is an undesirable overhead to pre-emptively convert from that to an mlir::Location.
* `getChecked` effectively requires duplicating the definition of the `get` method, creating a quite clunky workflow due to the subtle different in its signature.

This revision aims to talk the above problems by refactoring the implementation to use a callback for error emission. Using a callback allows for deferring the costly part of error emission until it is actually necessary.

Due to the necessary signature change in each instance of these methods, this revision also takes this opportunity to cleanup the definition of these methods by:
* restructuring the signature of `getChecked` such that it can be generated from the same code block as the `get` method.
* renaming `verifyConstructionInvariants` to `verify` to match the naming scheme of the rest of the compiler.

* It was decided that this was the end of the line for the existing custom tc parser/generator, and this is the first step to replacing it with a declarative format that maps well to mathy source languages.
* One such source language is implemented here: https://github.com/stellaraccident/mlir-linalgpy/blob/main/samples/mm.py
  * In fact, this is the exact source of the declarative `polymorphic_matmul` in this change.
  * I am working separately to clean this python implementation up and add it to MLIR (probably as `mlir.tools.linalg_opgen` or equiv). The scope of the python side is greater than just generating named ops: the ops are callable and directly emit `linalg.generic` ops fully dynamically, and this is intended to be a feature for frontends like npcomp to define custom linear algebra ops at runtime.
* There is more work required to handle full type polymorphism, especially with respect to integer formulations, since they require more specificity wrt types.
* Followups to this change will bring the new generator to feature parity with the current one and delete the current. Roughly, this involves adding support for interface declarations and attribute symbol bindings.

Rationale:

- discardable: good. discourages use for stable data.
- inherent: good
- annotation: redundant and doesn't convey difference
- intrinsic: confusable with "compiler intrinsics".
- definitional: too much of a mounthful
- extrinsic: too exotic of a word and hard to say
- acquired: doesn't convey the relationship to the semantics
- internal/external: not immediately obvious: what is internal to what?

- innate: similar to intrinsic but worse
- acquired: we don't typically think of an op as "acquiring" things
- known/unknown: by who?
- local/global: to what?
- native/foreign: to where?
- advisory: confusing distinction: is the attribute itself advisory or
  is the information it provides advisory?
- essential: an intrinsic attribute need not be present.
- expected: same issue as essential
- unexpected: by who/what?
- closed/open: whether the set is open or closed doesn't seem essential
  to the attribute being intrinsic. Also, in theory an op can have an
  unbounded set of intrinsic attributes (e.g. `arg<N>` for func).
- characteristic: unless you have a math background this probably
  doesn't make as much sense

River Riddle 6e3292b0b7 [mlir][OpFormatGen] Refactor `type_ref` into a more general `ref` directive
This allows for referencing nearly every component of an operation from within a custom directive.

It also fixes a bug with the current type_ref implementation, PR48478

Sean Silva 042db54b26 [mlir] Small touchups to LangRef attribute section
- attribute-dict production is redundant with dictionary-attribute
- definitions of attribute aliases were part of the same production as
  uses of attribute aliases
- `std.dim` now accepts the dimension number as an operand, so the
  example is out of date. Use the predicate of std.cmpi as a better
  example.
