Detailed Description

Buffer is a symbolic n-darray structure. It is a composition of primitive symbolic types, used to specify the memory layout of the Tensor used in program input.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Buffer()

tvm::tir::Buffer::Buffer	(	Var	data,
		DataType	dtype,
		Array< PrimExpr >	shape,
		Array< PrimExpr >	strides,
		PrimExpr	elem_offset,
		String	name,
		int	data_alignment,
		int	offset_factor,
		BufferType	buffer_type,
		Array< IntImm >	axis_separators = `{}`,
		Span	span = `Span()`
	)

Member Function Documentation

◆ access_ptr()

PrimExpr tvm::tir::Buffer::access_ptr	(	int	access_mask,
		DataType	ptr_type = `DataType::Handle()`,
		int	content_lanes = `1`,
		PrimExpr	offset = `IntImm(DataType::Int(32), 0)`,
		Optional< PrimExpr >	input_extent = `NullOpt`
	)		const

Get access ptr to the entire buffer.

Parameters

access_mask	The access mask
ptr_type	The type of the pointer.
content_lanes	The number of lanes for the (data) type.
offset	The offset of ptr.
input_extent	The extent of ptr.

◆ GetFlattenedBuffer()

Buffer tvm::tir::Buffer::GetFlattenedBuffer ( ) const

Get a flattened version of the buffer.

◆ MakeSlice()

Buffer tvm::tir::Buffer::MakeSlice	(	Array< PrimExpr >	begins,
		Array< PrimExpr >	extents
	)		const

Make a new symbolic buffer representing a slice of the buffer.

Parameters

begins	The beginning position of each dimension.
extents	The extent of each dimension.

Note: This function will make target buffer as compact as possible. If stride is not needed in the slice, it won't be presented

Returns: the result buffer.

◆ MakeStrideView()

Buffer tvm::tir::Buffer::MakeStrideView ( ) const

Return a new buffer that is equivalent with current one but always add stride field.

Returns: The strided version of the buffer.

◆ OffsetOf()

Array<PrimExpr> tvm::tir::Buffer::OffsetOf ( Array< PrimExpr > index ) const

Determine the offset in the buffer of the given index.

Returns the buffer offset, in number of elements of type dtype, without adjusting for number of lanes. (e.g. The number of float16x4 elements in a buffer of type float16x4.)

◆ scope()

String tvm::tir::Buffer::scope ( ) const

Return the storage scope associated with this buffer.

◆ TVM_DEFINE_OBJECT_REF_COW_METHOD()

tvm::tir::Buffer::TVM_DEFINE_OBJECT_REF_COW_METHOD ( BufferNode )

◆ TVM_DEFINE_OBJECT_REF_METHODS()

tvm::tir::Buffer::TVM_DEFINE_OBJECT_REF_METHODS	(	Buffer	,
		ObjectRef	,
		BufferNode
	)

◆ vload()

PrimExpr tvm::tir::Buffer::vload	(	Array< PrimExpr >	begin,
		DataType	dtype
	)		const

Create an Expr that does a vector load at begin index.

Parameters

begin	The beginning index
dtype	The data type to be loaded.

◆ vstore()

Stmt tvm::tir::Buffer::vstore	(	Array< PrimExpr >	begin,
		PrimExpr	value
	)		const

Create a Stmt that does a vector store at begin index.

Parameters

begin	The beginning index
value	The value to be stored.
