Detailed Description

Attributes for the "on_device" special operator.

The Relay call (aka 'annotation'):

on_device(sub_expr, device_type=2)

constrains sub_expr to execute and store its result on a device with DLDeviceType 2 (i.e. a kDLCuda device). However the annotation itself may appear in an expression to be executed and stored on a different device. If so the compiler will automatically insert a "device_copy" call to mediate the transition between devices.

E.g.: Assuming x and y reside on the GPU and z on the CPU then:

multiply(on_device(add(%x, %y), device_type=2), %z)

indicates the add should execute on the GPU but the multiply should execute on the CPU. The compiler will rewrite this to:

multiply(device_copy(add(%x, %y), src_dev_type=2, dst_dev_type=1), %z)

The Relay call

on_device(sub_expr, device_type=2, is_fixed=True)

is similar to the above, however the annotation itself must appear in an expression on the same device. The compiler will check the devices are consistent, and will not insert any "device_copy" call. This form of annotation shouldn't be necessary in user programs. However it is needed by the PlanDevices pass to fully specify the results of device planning so that the pass is idempotent.

E.g.: The following program is equivalent to the above:

let %a = on_device(add(%x, %y), device_type=2, is_fixed=True)
multiply(device_copy(%a, src_dev_type=2, dst_dev_type=1), %z)

The "on_device" annotation with is_fixed=True indicates unambiguously that a is stored on the GPU.

Member Data Documentation

◆ device_type

int tvm::relay::OnDeviceAttrs::device_type = kInvalidDeviceType

Device type on which argument expression should be evaluated.

◆ is_fixed

bool tvm::relay::OnDeviceAttrs::is_fixed = false

If true, the result device must also be device_type and device planning should not insert any "device_copy" calls to respect this annotation.

This is used by the device planning pass itself when annotating the planned program.
