26Introduction
27============
28
29The AMDGPU backend provides ISA code generation for AMD GPUs, starting with the
30R600 family up until the current GCN families. It lives in the
31``llvm/lib/Target/AMDGPU`` directory.

273Target Features
274---------------
275
276Target features control how code is generated to support certain
277processor specific features. Not all target features are supported by
278all processors. The runtime must ensure that the features supported by
279the device used to execute the code match the features enabled when
280generating the code. A mismatch of features may result in incorrect
281execution, or a reduction in performance.
282
283The target features supported by each processor, and the default value
284used if not specified explicitly, is listed in
285:ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`.
286
287Use the ``clang -m[no-]<TargetFeature>`` option to specify the AMDGPU
288target features.
289
290For example:
291
292``-mxnack``
293  Enable the ``xnack`` feature.
294``-mno-xnack``
295  Disable the ``xnack`` feature.

310                            the code may execute incorrectly if the

315                            be less performant than code with the

367**Generic**
368  The generic address space uses the hardware flat address support available in
369  GFX7-GFX10. This uses two fixed ranges of virtual addresses (the private and
370  local apertures), that are outside the range of addressable global memory, to
371  map from a flat address to a private or local address.
372
373  FLAT instructions can take a flat address and access global, private
374  (scratch), and group (LDS) memory depending on if the address is within one
375  of the aperture ranges. Flat access to scratch requires hardware aperture
376  setup and setup in the kernel prologue (see
377  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`). Flat access to LDS requires
378  hardware aperture setup and M0 (GFX7-GFX8) register setup (see
379  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`).
380
381  To convert between a private or group address space address (termed a segment
382  address) and a flat address the base address of the corresponding aperture
383  can be used. For GFX7-GFX8 these are available in the
384  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-hsa-aql-queue` the address of which can be obtained with
385  Queue Ptr SGPR (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). For
386  GFX9-GFX10 the aperture base addresses are directly available as inline
387  constant registers ``SRC_SHARED_BASE/LIMIT`` and ``SRC_PRIVATE_BASE/LIMIT``.
388  In 64-bit address mode the aperture sizes are 2^32 bytes and the base is
389  aligned to 2^32 which makes it easier to convert from flat to segment or
390  segment to flat.
391
392  A global address space address has the same value when used as a flat address
393  so no conversion is needed.
394
395**Global and Constant**
396  The global and constant address spaces both use global virtual addresses,
397  which are the same virtual address space used by the CPU. However, some
398  virtual addresses may only be accessible to the CPU, some only accessible
399  by the GPU, and some by both.
400
401  Using the constant address space indicates that the data will not change
402  during the execution of the kernel. This allows scalar read instructions to
403  be used. The vector and scalar L1 caches are invalidated of volatile data
404  before each kernel dispatch execution to allow constant memory to change
405  values between kernel dispatches.
406
407**Region**
408  The region address space uses the hardware Global Data Store (GDS). All
409  wavefronts executing on the same device will access the same memory for any
410  given region address. However, the same region address accessed by wavefronts
411  executing on different devices will access different memory. It is higher
412  performance than global memory. It is allocated by the runtime. The data
413  store (DS) instructions can be used to access it.
414
415**Local**
416  The local address space uses the hardware Local Data Store (LDS) which is
417  automatically allocated when the hardware creates the wavefronts of a
418  work-group, and freed when all the wavefronts of a work-group have
419  terminated. All wavefronts belonging to the same work-group will access the
420  same memory for any given local address. However, the same local address
421  accessed by wavefronts belonging to different work-groups will access
422  different memory. It is higher performance than global memory. The data store
423  (DS) instructions can be used to access it.
424
425**Private**
426  The private address space uses the hardware scratch memory support which
427  automatically allocates memory when it creates a wavefront and frees it when
428  a wavefronts terminates. The memory accessed by a lane of a wavefront for any
429  given private address will be different to the memory accessed by another lane
430  of the same or different wavefront for the same private address.
431
432  If a kernel dispatch uses scratch, then the hardware allocates memory from a
433  pool of backing memory allocated by the runtime for each wavefront. The lanes
434  of the wavefront access this using dword (4 byte) interleaving. The mapping
435  used from private address to backing memory address is:
436
437    ``wavefront-scratch-base +
438    ((private-address / 4) * wavefront-size * 4) +
439    (wavefront-lane-id * 4) + (private-address % 4)``
440
441  If each lane of a wavefront accesses the same private address, the
442  interleaving results in adjacent dwords being accessed and hence requires
443  fewer cache lines to be fetched.
444
445  There are different ways that the wavefront scratch base address is
446  determined by a wavefront (see
447  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`).
448
449  Scratch memory can be accessed in an interleaved manner using buffer
450  instructions with the scratch buffer descriptor and per wavefront scratch
451  offset, by the scratch instructions, or by flat instructions. Multi-dword
452  access is not supported except by flat and scratch instructions in
453  GFX9-GFX10.
454
455**Constant 32-bit**
456  *TODO*
457
458**Buffer Fat Pointer**
459  The buffer fat pointer is an experimental address space that is currently
460  unsupported in the backend. It exposes a non-integral pointer that is in
461  the future intended to support the modelling of 128-bit buffer descriptors
462  plus a 32-bit offset into the buffer (in total encapsulating a 160-bit
463  *pointer*), allowing normal LLVM load/store/atomic operations to be used to
464  model the buffer descriptors used heavily in graphics workloads targeting
465  the backend.

469Memory Scopes
470-------------
471
472This section provides LLVM memory synchronization scopes supported by the AMDGPU
473backend memory model when the target triple OS is ``amdhsa`` (see
474:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model` and :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
475
476The memory model supported is based on the HSA memory model [HSA]_ which is
477based in turn on HRF-indirect with scope inclusion [HRF]_. The happens-before
478relation is transitive over the synchronizes-with relation independent of scope
479and synchronizes-with allows the memory scope instances to be inclusive (see
480table :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-llvm-sync-scopes-table`).
481
482This is different to the OpenCL [OpenCL]_ memory model which does not have scope
483inclusion and requires the memory scopes to exactly match. However, this
484is conservatively correct for OpenCL.

876Note Records
877------------
878
879The AMDGPU backend code object contains ELF note records in the ``.note``
880section. The set of generated notes and their semantics depend on the code
881object version; see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2` and
882:ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3`.
883
884As required by ``ELFCLASS32`` and ``ELFCLASS64``, minimal zero-byte padding
885must be generated after the ``name`` field to ensure the ``desc`` field is 4
886byte aligned. In addition, minimal zero-byte padding must be generated to
887ensure the ``desc`` field size is a multiple of 4 bytes. The ``sh_addralign``
888field of the ``.note`` section must be at least 4 to indicate at least 8 byte
889alignment.

1032``word32``
1033  This specifies a 32-bit field occupying 4 bytes with arbitrary byte
1034  alignment. These values use the same byte order as other word values in the
1035  AMDGPU architecture.
1036
1037``word64``
1038  This specifies a 64-bit field occupying 8 bytes with arbitrary byte

1040  AMDGPU architecture.
1041
1042Following notations are used for specifying relocation calculations:
1043
1044**A**
1045  Represents the addend used to compute the value of the relocatable field.
1046
1047**G**
1048  Represents the offset into the global offset table at which the relocation
1049  entry's symbol will reside during execution.
1050
1051**GOT**
1052  Represents the address of the global offset table.
1053
1054**P**
1055  Represents the place (section offset for ``et_rel`` or address for ``et_dyn``)
1056  of the storage unit being relocated (computed using ``r_offset``).
1057
1058**S**
1059  Represents the value of the symbol whose index resides in the relocation
1060  entry. Relocations not using this must specify a symbol index of
1061  ``STN_UNDEF``.
1062
1063**B**
1064  Represents the base address of a loaded executable or shared object which is
1065  the difference between the ELF address and the actual load address.
1066  Relocations using this are only valid in executable or shared objects.
1067
1068The following relocation types are supported:

1104Loaded Code Object Path Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
1105---------------------------------------------------------
1106
1107The AMD GPU code object loader represents the path of the ELF shared object from
1108which the code object was loaded as a textual Unifom Resource Identifier (URI).
1109Note that the code object is the in memory loaded relocated form of the ELF
1110shared object.  Multiple code objects may be loaded at different memory
1111addresses in the same process from the same ELF shared object.
1112
1113The loaded code object path URI syntax is defined by the following BNF syntax:
1114
1115.. code::
1116
1117  code_object_uri ::== file_uri | memory_uri
1118  file_uri        ::== "file://" file_path [ range_specifier ]
1119  memory_uri      ::== "memory://" process_id range_specifier
1120  range_specifier ::== [ "#" | "?" ] "offset=" number "&" "size=" number
1121  file_path       ::== URI_ENCODED_OS_FILE_PATH
1122  process_id      ::== DECIMAL_NUMBER
1123  number          ::== HEX_NUMBER | DECIMAL_NUMBER | OCTAL_NUMBER
1124
1125**number**
1126  Is a C integral literal where hexadecimal values are prefixed by "0x" or "0X",
1127  and octal values by "0".
1128
1129**file_path**
1130  Is the file's path specified as a URI encoded UTF-8 string. In URI encoding,
1131  every character that is not in the regular expression ``[a-zA-Z0-9/_.~-]`` is
1132  encoded as two uppercase hexidecimal digits proceeded by "%".  Directories in
1133  the path are separated by "/".
1134
1135**offset**
1136  Is a 0-based byte offset to the start of the code object.  For a file URI, it
1137  is from the start of the file specified by the ``file_path``, and if omitted
1138  defaults to 0. For a memory URI, it is the memory address and is required.
1139
1140**size**
1141  Is the number of bytes in the code object.  For a file URI, if omitted it
1142  defaults to the size of the file.  It is required for a memory URI.
1143
1144**process_id**
1145  Is the identity of the process owning the memory.  For Linux it is the C
1146  unsigned integral decimal literal for the process ID (PID).
1147
1148For example:
1149
1150.. code::
1151
1152  file:///dir1/dir2/file1
1153  file:///dir3/dir4/file2#offset=0x2000&size=3000
1154  memory://1234#offset=0x20000&size=3000

1159=======================

1161.. warning::
1162
1163   This section describes **provisional support** for AMDGPU DWARF [DWARF]_ that
1164   is not currently fully implemented and is subject to change.
1165
1166AMDGPU generates DWARF [DWARF]_ debugging information ELF sections (see
1167:ref:`amdgpu-elf-code-object`) which contain information that maps the code
1168object executable code and data to the source language constructs. It can be
1169used by tools such as debuggers and profilers. It uses features defined in
1170:doc:`AMDGPUDwarfExtensionsForHeterogeneousDebugging` that are made available in
1171DWARF Version 4 and DWARF Version 5 as an LLVM vendor extension.
1172
1173This section defines the AMDGPU target architecture specific DWARF mappings.
1174
1175.. _amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier:
1176
1177Register Identifier
1178-------------------
1179
1180This section defines the AMDGPU target architecture register numbers used in
1181DWARF operation expressions (see DWARF Version 5 section 2.5 and
1182:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`) and Call Frame Information
1183instructions (see DWARF Version 5 section 6.4 and
1184:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`).
1185
1186A single code object can contain code for kernels that have different wavefront
1187sizes. The vector registers and some scalar registers are based on the wavefront
1188size. AMDGPU defines distinct DWARF registers for each wavefront size. This
1189simplifies the consumer of the DWARF so that each register has a fixed size,
1190rather than being dynamic according to the wavefront size mode. Similarly,
1191distinct DWARF registers are defined for those registers that vary in size
1192according to the process address size. This allows a consumer to treat a
1193specific AMDGPU processor as a single architecture regardless of how it is
1194configured at run time. The compiler explicitly specifies the DWARF registers
1195that match the mode in which the code it is generating will be executed.
1196
1197DWARF registers are encoded as numbers, which are mapped to architecture
1198registers. The mapping for AMDGPU is defined in
1199:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-mapping-table`. All AMDGPU targets use the same
1200mapping.

1275The vector registers are represented as the full size for the wavefront. They
1276are organized as consecutive dwords (32-bits), one per lane, with the dword at
1277the least significant bit position corresponding to lane 0 and so forth. DWARF
1278location expressions involving the ``DW_OP_LLVM_offset`` and
1279``DW_OP_LLVM_push_lane`` operations are used to select the part of the vector
1280register corresponding to the lane that is executing the current thread of
1281execution in languages that are implemented using a SIMD or SIMT execution
1282model.
1283
1284If the wavefront size is 32 lanes then the wavefront 32 mode register
1285definitions are used. If the wavefront size is 64 lanes then the wavefront 64
1286mode register definitions are used. Some AMDGPU targets support executing in
1287both wavefront 32 and wavefront 64 mode. The register definitions corresponding
1288to the wavefront mode of the generated code will be used.
1289
1290If code is generated to execute in a 32-bit process address space, then the
129132-bit process address space register definitions are used. If code is generated
1292to execute in a 64-bit process address space, then the 64-bit process address
1293space register definitions are used. The ``amdgcn`` target only supports the
129464-bit process address space.

1373including address size and NULL value.
1374
1375The ``DW_ASPACE_none`` address space is the default target architecture address
1376space used in DWARF operations that do not specify an address space. It
1377therefore has to map to the global address space so that the ``DW_OP_addr*`` and
1378related operations can refer to addresses in the program code.
1379
1380The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_generic`` address space allows location expressions to
1381specify the flat address space. If the address corresponds to an address in the
1382local address space, then it corresponds to the wavefront that is executing the
1383focused thread of execution. If the address corresponds to an address in the
1384private address space, then it corresponds to the lane that is executing the
1385focused thread of execution for languages that are implemented using a SIMD or
1386SIMT execution model.
1387
1388.. note::
1389
1390  CUDA-like languages such as HIP that do not have address spaces in the
1391  language type system, but do allow variables to be allocated in different
1392  address spaces, need to explicitly specify the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_generic``
1393  address space in the DWARF expression operations as the default address space
1394  is the global address space.
1395
1396The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_local`` address space allows location expressions to
1397specify the local address space corresponding to the wavefront that is executing
1398the focused thread of execution.
1399
1400The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address space allows location expressions
1401to specify the private address space corresponding to the lane that is executing
1402the focused thread of execution for languages that are implemented using a SIMD
1403or SIMT execution model.
1404
1405The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address space allows location expressions
1406to specify the unswizzled private address space corresponding to the wavefront
1407that is executing the focused thread of execution. The wavefront view of private
1408memory is the per wavefront unswizzled backing memory layout defined in
1409:ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`, such that address 0 corresponds to the first
1410location for the backing memory of the wavefront (namely the address is not
1411offset by ``wavefront-scratch-base``). The following formula can be used to
1412convert from a ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address to a
1413``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address:
1414
1415::
1416
1417  private-address-wavefront =
1418    ((private-address-lane / 4) * wavefront-size * 4) +
1419    (wavefront-lane-id * 4) + (private-address-lane % 4)
1420
1421If the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address is dword aligned, and the start
1422of the dwords for each lane starting with lane 0 is required, then this
1423simplifies to:
1424
1425::
1426
1427  private-address-wavefront =
1428    private-address-lane * wavefront-size
1429
1430A compiler can use the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address space to read a
1431complete spilled vector register back into a complete vector register in the
1432CFI. The frame pointer can be a private lane address which is dword aligned,
1433which can be shifted to multiply by the wavefront size, and then used to form a
1434private wavefront address that gives a location for a contiguous set of dwords,
1435one per lane, where the vector register dwords are spilled. The compiler knows
1436the wavefront size since it generates the code. Note that the type of the
1437address may have to be converted as the size of a
1438``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address may be smaller than the size of a
1439``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address.
1440
1441.. _amdgpu-dwarf-lane-identifier:
1442
1443Lane identifier
1444---------------
1445
1446DWARF lane identifies specify a target architecture lane position for hardware
1447that executes in a SIMD or SIMT manner, and on which a source language maps its
1448threads of execution onto those lanes. The DWARF lane identifier is pushed by
1449the ``DW_OP_LLVM_push_lane`` DWARF expression operation. See DWARF Version 5
1450section 2.5 which is updated by *DWARF Extensions For Heterogeneous Debugging*
1451section :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`.
1452
1453For AMDGPU, the lane identifier corresponds to the hardware lane ID of a
1454wavefront. It is numbered from 0 to the wavefront size minus 1.
1455
1456Operation Expressions
1457---------------------
1458
1459DWARF expressions are used to compute program values and the locations of
1460program objects. See DWARF Version 5 section 2.5 and
1461:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`.
1462
1463DWARF location descriptions describe how to access storage which includes memory
1464and registers. When accessing storage on AMDGPU, bytes are ordered with least
1465significant bytes first, and bits are ordered within bytes with least
1466significant bits first.
1467
1468For AMDGPU CFI expressions, ``DW_OP_LLVM_select_bit_piece`` is used to describe
1469unwinding vector registers that are spilled under the execution mask to memory:
1470the zero-single location description is the vector register, and the one-single
1471location description is the spilled memory location description. The
1472``DW_OP_LLVM_form_aspace_address`` is used to specify the address space of the
1473memory location description.
1474
1475In AMDGPU expressions, ``DW_OP_LLVM_select_bit_piece`` is used by the
1476``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute expression where divergent control flow is
1477controlled by the execution mask. An undefined location description together
1478with ``DW_OP_LLVM_extend`` is used to indicate the lane was not active on entry
1479to the subprogram. See :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-dw-at-llvm-lane-pc` for an example.
1480
1481Debugger Information Entry Attributes
1482-------------------------------------
1483
1484This section describes how certain debugger information entry attributes are
1485used by AMDGPU. See the sections in DWARF Version 5 section 2 which are updated
1486by *DWARF Extensions For Heterogeneous Debugging* section
1487:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-debugging-information-entry-attributes`.
1488
1489.. _amdgpu-dwarf-dw-at-llvm-lane-pc:
1490
1491``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc``
1492~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1493
1494For AMDGPU, the ``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute is used to specify the program
1495location of the separate lanes of a SIMT thread.
1496
1497If the lane is an active lane then this will be the same as the current program
1498location.
1499
1500If the lane is inactive, but was active on entry to the subprogram, then this is
1501the program location in the subprogram at which execution of the lane is
1502conceptual positioned.
1503
1504If the lane was not active on entry to the subprogram, then this will be the
1505undefined location. A client debugger can check if the lane is part of a valid
1506work-group by checking that the lane is in the range of the associated
1507work-group within the grid, accounting for partial work-groups. If it is not,
1508then the debugger can omit any information for the lane. Otherwise, the debugger
1509may repeatedly unwind the stack and inspect the ``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` of the
1510calling subprogram until it finds a non-undefined location. Conceptually the
1511lane only has the call frames that it has a non-undefined
1512``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc``.
1513
1514The following example illustrates how the AMDGPU backend can generate a DWARF
1515location list expression for the nested ``IF/THEN/ELSE`` structures of the
1516following subprogram pseudo code for a target with 64 lanes per wavefront.
1517
1518.. code::
1519  :number-lines:
1520
1521  SUBPROGRAM X
1522  BEGIN
1523    a;
1524    IF (c1) THEN
1525      b;
1526      IF (c2) THEN
1527        c;
1528      ELSE
1529        d;
1530      ENDIF
1531      e;
1532    ELSE
1533      f;
1534    ENDIF
1535    g;
1536  END
1537
1538The AMDGPU backend may generate the following pseudo LLVM MIR to manipulate the
1539execution mask (``EXEC``) to linearize the control flow. The condition is
1540evaluated to make a mask of the lanes for which the condition evaluates to true.
1541First the ``THEN`` region is executed by setting the ``EXEC`` mask to the
1542logical ``AND`` of the current ``EXEC`` mask with the condition mask. Then the
1543``ELSE`` region is executed by negating the ``EXEC`` mask and logical ``AND`` of
1544the saved ``EXEC`` mask at the start of the region. After the ``IF/THEN/ELSE``
1545region the ``EXEC`` mask is restored to the value it had at the beginning of the
1546region. This is shown below. Other approaches are possible, but the basic
1547concept is the same.

1580To create the DWARF location list expression that defines the location
1581description of a vector of lane program locations, the LLVM MIR ``DBG_VALUE``
1582pseudo instruction can be used to annotate the linearized control flow. This can
1583be done by defining an artificial variable for the lane PC. The DWARF location
1584list expression created for it is used as the value of the
1585``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute on the subprogram's debugger information entry.
1586
1587A DWARF procedure is defined for each well nested structured control flow region
1588which provides the conceptual lane program location for a lane if it is not
1589active (namely it is divergent). The DWARF operation expression for each region
1590conceptually inherits the value of the immediately enclosing region and modifies
1591it according to the semantics of the region.
1592
1593For an ``IF/THEN/ELSE`` region the divergent program location is at the start of
1594the region for the ``THEN`` region since it is executed first. For the ``ELSE``
1595region the divergent program location is at the end of the ``IF/THEN/ELSE``
1596region since the ``THEN`` region has completed.
1597
1598The lane PC artificial variable is assigned at each region transition. It uses
1599the immediately enclosing region's DWARF procedure to compute the program
1600location for each lane assuming they are divergent, and then modifies the result
1601by inserting the current program location for each lane that the ``EXEC`` mask
1602indicates is active.
1603
1604By having separate DWARF procedures for each region, they can be reused to
1605define the value for any nested region. This reduces the total size of the DWARF
1606operation expressions.
1607
1608The following provides an example using pseudo LLVM MIR.

1737    g;
1738  $lex_end:
1739
1740The DWARF procedure ``%__active_lane_pc`` is used to update the lane pc elements
1741that are active, with the current program location.
1742
1743Artificial variables %__lex_1_save_exec and %__lex_1_1_save_exec are created for
1744the execution masks saved on entry to a region. Using the ``DBG_VALUE`` pseudo
1745instruction, location list entries will be created that describe where the
1746artificial variables are allocated at any given program location. The compiler
1747may allocate them to registers or spill them to memory.
1748
1749The DWARF procedures for each region use the values of the saved execution mask
1750artificial variables to only update the lanes that are active on entry to the
1751region. All other lanes retain the value of the enclosing region where they were
1752last active. If they were not active on entry to the subprogram, then will have
1753the undefined location description.
1754
1755Other structured control flow regions can be handled similarly. For example,
1756loops would set the divergent program location for the region at the end of the
1757loop. Any lanes active will be in the loop, and any lanes not active must have
1758exited the loop.
1759
1760An ``IF/THEN/ELSEIF/ELSEIF/...`` region can be treated as a nest of
1761``IF/THEN/ELSE`` regions.
1762
1763The DWARF procedures can use the active lane artificial variable described in
1764:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-amdgpu-dw-at-llvm-active-lane` rather than the actual
1765``EXEC`` mask in order to support whole or quad wavefront mode.
1766
1767.. _amdgpu-dwarf-amdgpu-dw-at-llvm-active-lane:
1768
1769``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane``
1770~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1771
1772The ``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane`` attribute on a subprogram debugger information
1773entry is used to specify the lanes that are conceptually active for a SIMT
1774thread.
1775
1776The execution mask may be modified to implement whole or quad wavefront mode
1777operations. For example, all lanes may need to temporarily be made active to
1778execute a whole wavefront operation. Such regions would save the ``EXEC`` mask,
1779update it to enable the necessary lanes, perform the operations, and then
1780restore the ``EXEC`` mask from the saved value. While executing the whole
1781wavefront region, the conceptual execution mask is the saved value, not the
1782``EXEC`` value.
1783
1784This is handled by defining an artificial variable for the active lane mask. The
1785active lane mask artificial variable would be the actual ``EXEC`` mask for
1786normal regions, and the saved execution mask for regions where the mask is
1787temporarily updated. The location list expression created for this artificial
1788variable is used to define the value of the ``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane``
1789attribute.
1790
1791``DW_AT_LLVM_augmentation``
1792~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1793
1794For AMDGPU, the ``DW_AT_LLVM_augmentation`` attribute of a compilation unit
1795debugger information entry has the following value for the augmentation string:
1796
1797::
1798
1799  [amdgpu:v0.0]
1800
1801The "vX.Y" specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
1802extensions used in the DWARF of the compilation unit. The version number
1803conforms to [SEMVER]_.
1804
1805Call Frame Information
1806----------------------
1807
1808DWARF Call Frame Information (CFI) describes how a consumer can virtually
1809*unwind* call frames in a running process or core dump. See DWARF Version 5
1810section 6.4 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`.
1811
1812For AMDGPU, the Common Information Entry (CIE) fields have the following values:
1813
18141.  ``augmentation`` string contains the following null-terminated UTF-8 string:
1815
1816    ::
1817
1818      [amd:v0.0]
1819
1820    The ``vX.Y`` specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
1821    extensions used in this CIE or to the FDEs that use it. The version number
1822    conforms to [SEMVER]_.
1823
18242.  ``address_size`` for the ``Global`` address space is defined in
1825    :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
1826
18273.  ``segment_selector_size`` is 0 as AMDGPU does not use a segment selector.
1828
18294.  ``code_alignment_factor`` is 4 bytes.
1830
1831    .. TODO::
1832
1833       Add to :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` table.
1834
18355.  ``data_alignment_factor`` is 4 bytes.
1836
1837    .. TODO::
1838
1839       Add to :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` table.
1840
18416.  ``return_address_register`` is ``PC_32`` for 32-bit processes and ``PC_64``
1842    for 64-bit processes defined in :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier`.
1843
18447.  ``initial_instructions`` Since a subprogram X with fewer registers can be
1845    called from subprogram Y that has more allocated, X will not change any of
1846    the extra registers as it cannot access them. Therefore, the default rule
1847    for all columns is ``same value``.
1848
1849For AMDGPU the register number follows the numbering defined in
1850:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier`.
1851
1852For AMDGPU the instructions are variable size. A consumer can subtract 1 from
1853the return address to get the address of a byte within the call site
1854instructions. See DWARF Version 5 section 6.4.4.

1862~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1863
1864See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.1.4.1 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-lookup-by-name`.
1865
1866For AMDGPU the lookup by name section header table:
1867
1868``augmentation_string_size`` (uword)
1869
1870  Set to the length of the ``augmentation_string`` value which is always a
1871  multiple of 4.
1872
1873``augmentation_string`` (sequence of UTF-8 characters)
1874
1875  Contains the following UTF-8 string null padded to a multiple of 4 bytes:
1876
1877  ::
1878
1879    [amdgpu:v0.0]
1880
1881  The "vX.Y" specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
1882  extensions used in the DWARF of this index. The version number conforms to
1883  [SEMVER]_.
1884
1885  .. note::
1886
1887    This is different to the DWARF Version 5 definition that requires the first
1888    4 characters to be the vendor ID. But this is consistent with the other
1889    augmentation strings and does allow multiple vendor contributions. However,
1890    backwards compatibility may be more desirable.
1891
1892Lookup By Address Section Header
1893~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1894
1895See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.2.
1896
1897For AMDGPU the lookup by address section header table:
1898
1899``address_size`` (ubyte)
1900
1901  Match the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
1902  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
1903
1904``segment_selector_size`` (ubyte)
1905
1906  AMDGPU does not use a segment selector so this is 0. The entries in the
1907  ``.debug_aranges`` do not have a segment selector.
1908
1909Line Number Information
1910-----------------------
1911
1912See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-line-number-information`.
1913
1914AMDGPU does not use the ``isa`` state machine registers and always sets it to 0.
1915The instruction set must be obtained from the ELF file header ``e_flags`` field
1916in the ``EF_AMDGPU_MACH`` bit position (see :ref:`ELF Header
1917<amdgpu-elf-header>`). See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.2.
1918
1919.. TODO::
1920
1921  Should the ``isa`` state machine register be used to indicate if the code is
1922  in wavefront32 or wavefront64 mode? Or used to specify the architecture ISA?
1923
1924For AMDGPU the line number program header fields have the following values (see
1925DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.4):
1926
1927``address_size`` (ubyte)
1928  Matches the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
1929  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
1930
1931``segment_selector_size`` (ubyte)
1932  AMDGPU does not use a segment selector so this is 0.
1933
1934``minimum_instruction_length`` (ubyte)
1935  For GFX9-GFX10 this is 4.
1936
1937``maximum_operations_per_instruction`` (ubyte)
1938  For GFX9-GFX10 this is 1.
1939
1940Source text for online-compiled programs (for example, those compiled by the
1941OpenCL language runtime) may be embedded into the DWARF Version 5 line table.
1942See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.4.1 which is updated by *DWARF Extensions For

1974
1975For AMDGPU:
1976
1977* For the ``amdgcn`` target architecture only the 64-bit process address space
1978  is supported.
1979
1980* The producer can generate either 32-bit or 64-bit DWARF format. LLVM generates
1981  the 32-bit DWARF format.
1982
1983Unit Headers

1999(see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
2000
2001AMDHSA
2002------
2003
2004This section provides code conventions used when the target triple OS is

2007.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-target-identification:
2008
2009Code Object Target Identification
2010~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2011
2012The AMDHSA OS uses the following syntax to specify the code object
2013target as a single string:
2014
2015  ``<Architecture>-<Vendor>-<OS>-<Environment>-<Processor><Target Features>``
2016
2017Where:
2018
2019  - ``<Architecture>``, ``<Vendor>``, ``<OS>`` and ``<Environment>``
2020    are the same as the *Target Triple* (see
2021    :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
2022
2023  - ``<Processor>`` is the same as the *Processor* (see
2024    :ref:`amdgpu-processors`).
2025
2026  - ``<Target Features>`` is a list of the enabled *Target Features*
2027    (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-features`), each prefixed by a plus, that
2028    apply to *Processor*. The list must be in the same order as listed
2029    in the table :ref:`amdgpu-target-feature-table`. Note that *Target
2030    Features* must be included in the list if they are enabled even if
2031    that is the default for *Processor*.

2038
2039Code Object Metadata
2040~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2041
2042The code object metadata specifies extensible metadata associated with the code
2043objects executed on HSA [HSA]_ compatible runtimes such as AMD's ROCm
2044[AMD-ROCm]_. The encoding and semantics of this metadata depends on the code
2045object version; see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v2` and
2046:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v3`.
2047
2048Code object metadata is specified in a note record (see
2049:ref:`amdgpu-note-records`) and is required when the target triple OS is
2050``amdhsa`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`). It must contain the minimum
2051information necessary to support the ROCM kernel queries. For example, the
2052segment sizes needed in a dispatch packet. In addition, a high-level language
2053runtime may require other information to be included. For example, the AMD
2054OpenCL runtime records kernel argument information.

2064  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v3`.
2065
2066Code object V2 metadata is specified by the ``NT_AMD_AMDGPU_METADATA`` note
2067record (see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2`).
2068
2069The metadata is specified as a YAML formatted string (see [YAML]_ and
2070:doc:`YamlIO`).
2071
2072.. TODO::
2073
2074  Is the string null terminated? It probably should not if YAML allows it to
2075  contain null characters, otherwise it should be.
2076
2077The metadata is represented as a single YAML document comprised of the mapping
2078defined in table :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-map-table-v2` and
2079referenced tables.
2080
2081For boolean values, the string values of ``false`` and ``true`` are used for
2082false and true respectively.

2481
2482Code object V3 metadata is specified by the ``NT_AMDGPU_METADATA`` note record
2483(see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3`).
2484
2485The metadata is represented as Message Pack formatted binary data (see
2486[MsgPack]_). The top level is a Message Pack map that includes the
2487keys defined in table
2488:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-map-table-v3` and referenced
2489tables.
2490
2491Additional information can be added to the maps. To avoid conflicts,
2492any key names should be prefixed by "*vendor-name*." where
2493``vendor-name`` can be the name of the vendor and specific vendor
2494tool that generates the information. The prefix is abbreviated to
2495simply "." when it appears within a map that has been added by the
2496same *vendor-name*.

2877Kernel Dispatch
2878~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2879
2880The HSA architected queuing language (AQL) defines a user space memory
2881interface that can be used to control the dispatch of kernels, in an agent
2882independent way. An agent can have zero or more AQL queues created for it using
2883the ROCm runtime, in which AQL packets (all of which are 64 bytes) can be
2884placed. See the *HSA Platform System Architecture Specification* [HSA]_ for the
2885AQL queue mechanics and packet layouts.
2886
2887The packet processor of a kernel agent is responsible for detecting and
2888dispatching HSA kernels from the AQL queues associated with it. For AMD GPUs the
2889packet processor is implemented by the hardware command processor (CP),
2890asynchronous dispatch controller (ADC) and shader processor input controller
2891(SPI).
2892
2893The ROCm runtime can be used to allocate an AQL queue object. It uses the kernel
2894mode driver to initialize and register the AQL queue with CP.
2895
2896To dispatch a kernel the following actions are performed. This can occur in the
2897CPU host program, or from an HSA kernel executing on a GPU.
2898
28991. A pointer to an AQL queue for the kernel agent on which the kernel is to be
2900   executed is obtained.
29012. A pointer to the kernel descriptor (see
2902   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`) of the kernel to execute is obtained.
2903   It must be for a kernel that is contained in a code object that that was
2904   loaded by the ROCm runtime on the kernel agent with which the AQL queue is
2905   associated.
29063. Space is allocated for the kernel arguments using the ROCm runtime allocator
2907   for a memory region with the kernarg property for the kernel agent that will
2908   execute the kernel. It must be at least 16-byte aligned.
29094. Kernel argument values are assigned to the kernel argument memory
2910   allocation. The layout is defined in the *HSA Programmer's Language
2911   Reference* [HSA]_. For AMDGPU the kernel execution directly accesses the
2912   kernel argument memory in the same way constant memory is accessed. (Note
2913   that the HSA specification allows an implementation to copy the kernel
2914   argument contents to another location that is accessed by the kernel.)
29155. An AQL kernel dispatch packet is created on the AQL queue. The ROCm runtime
2916   api uses 64-bit atomic operations to reserve space in the AQL queue for the
2917   packet. The packet must be set up, and the final write must use an atomic
2918   store release to set the packet kind to ensure the packet contents are
2919   visible to the kernel agent. AQL defines a doorbell signal mechanism to
2920   notify the kernel agent that the AQL queue has been updated. These rules, and
2921   the layout of the AQL queue and kernel dispatch packet is defined in the *HSA
2922   System Architecture Specification* [HSA]_.
29236. A kernel dispatch packet includes information about the actual dispatch,
2924   such as grid and work-group size, together with information from the code
2925   object about the kernel, such as segment sizes. The ROCm runtime queries on
2926   the kernel symbol can be used to obtain the code object values which are
2927   recorded in the :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata`.
29287. CP executes micro-code and is responsible for detecting and setting up the
2929   GPU to execute the wavefronts of a kernel dispatch.
29308. CP ensures that when the a wavefront starts executing the kernel machine
2931   code, the scalar general purpose registers (SGPR) and vector general purpose
2932   registers (VGPR) are set up as required by the machine code. The required
2933   setup is defined in the :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`. The initial
2934   register state is defined in
2935   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`.
29369. The prolog of the kernel machine code (see
2937   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog`) sets up the machine state as necessary
2938   before continuing executing the machine code that corresponds to the kernel.
293910. When the kernel dispatch has completed execution, CP signals the completion
2940    signal specified in the kernel dispatch packet if not 0.

2942Image and Samplers
2943~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2944
2945Image and sample handles created by the ROCm runtime are 64-bit addresses of a
2946hardware 32-byte V# and 48 byte S# object respectively. In order to support the
2947HSA ``query_sampler`` operations two extra dwords are used to store the HSA BRIG
2948enumeration values for the queries that are not trivially deducible from the S#
2949representation.
2950
2951HSA Signals
2952~~~~~~~~~~~
2953
2954HSA signal handles created by the ROCm runtime are 64-bit addresses of a
2955structure allocated in memory accessible from both the CPU and GPU. The
2956structure is defined by the ROCm runtime and subject to change between releases
2957(see [AMD-ROCm-github]_).
2958

2960
2961HSA AQL Queue
2962~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2963
2964The HSA AQL queue structure is defined by the ROCm runtime and subject to change
2965between releases (see [AMD-ROCm-github]_). For some processors it contains
2966fields needed to implement certain language features such as the flat address
2967aperture bases. It also contains fields used by CP such as managing the
2968allocation of scratch memory.

2970.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor:
2971
2972Kernel Descriptor
2973~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2974
2975A kernel descriptor consists of the information needed by CP to initiate the
2976execution of a kernel, including the entry point address of the machine code
2977that implements the kernel.

3577Initial Kernel Execution State
3578~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3579
3580This section defines the register state that will be set up by the packet
3581processor prior to the start of execution of every wavefront. This is limited by
3582the constraints of the hardware controllers of CP/ADC/SPI.
3583
3584The order of the SGPR registers is defined, but the compiler can specify which
3585ones are actually setup in the kernel descriptor using the ``enable_sgpr_*`` bit
3586fields (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`). The register numbers used
3587for enabled registers are dense starting at SGPR0: the first enabled register is
3588SGPR0, the next enabled register is SGPR1 etc.; disabled registers do not have
3589an SGPR number.
3590
3591The initial SGPRs comprise up to 16 User SRGPs that are set by CP and apply to
3592all wavefronts of the grid. It is possible to specify more than 16 User SGPRs

3797for enabled registers are dense starting at VGPR0: the first enabled register is

3822
3823The setting of registers is done by GPU CP/ADC/SPI hardware as follows:
3824
38251. SGPRs before the Work-Group Ids are set by CP using the 16 User Data
3826   registers.
38272. Work-group Id registers X, Y, Z are set by ADC which supports any
3828   combination including none.
38293. Scratch Wavefront Offset is set by SPI in a per wavefront basis which is why
3830   its value cannot be included with the flat scratch init value which is per
3831   queue.
38324. The VGPRs are set by SPI which only supports specifying either (X), (X, Y)
3833   or (X, Y, Z).
3834
3835Flat Scratch register pair are adjacent SGPRs so they can be moved as a 64-bit
3836value to the hardware required SGPRn-3 and SGPRn-4 respectively.
3837
3838The global segment can be accessed either using buffer instructions (GFX6 which
3839has V# 64-bit address support), flat instructions (GFX7-GFX10), or global
3840instructions (GFX9-GFX10).
3841
3842If buffer operations are used, then the compiler can generate a V# with the
3843following properties:
3844
3845* base address of 0
3846* no swizzle
3847* ATC: 1 if IOMMU present (such as APU)
3848* ptr64: 1
3849* MTYPE set to support memory coherence that matches the runtime (such as CC for
3850  APU and NC for dGPU).

3854Kernel Prolog
3855~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3856
3857The compiler performs initialization in the kernel prologue depending on the
3858target and information about things like stack usage in the kernel and called
3859functions. Some of this initialization requires the compiler to request certain
3860User and System SGPRs be present in the
3861:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state` via the
3862:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`.

3870
38712.  The CFI CFA is defined using an expression which evaluates to a location

3881  The M0 register must be initialized with a value at least the total LDS size
3882  if the kernel may access LDS via DS or flat operations. Total LDS size is
3883  available in dispatch packet. For M0, it is also possible to use maximum
3884  possible value of LDS for given target (0x7FFF for GFX6 and 0xFFFF for
3885  GFX7-GFX8).
3886GFX9-GFX10
3887  The M0 register is not used for range checking LDS accesses and so does not
3888  need to be initialized in the prolog.

3892Stack Pointer

3894
3895If the kernel has function calls it must set up the ABI stack pointer described
3896in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-function-call-convention-non-kernel-functions` by setting
3897SGPR32 to the unswizzled scratch offset of the address past the last local

3903+++++++++++++
3904
3905If the kernel needs a frame pointer for the reasons defined in
3906``SIFrameLowering`` then SGPR33 is used and is always set to ``0`` in the
3907kernel prolog. If a frame pointer is not required then all uses of the frame
3908pointer are replaced with immediate ``0`` offsets.

3912Flat Scratch
3913++++++++++++
3914
3915If the kernel or any function it calls may use flat operations to access
3916scratch memory, the prolog code must set up the FLAT_SCRATCH register pair
3917(FLAT_SCRATCH_LO/FLAT_SCRATCH_HI which are in SGPRn-4/SGPRn-3). Initialization
3918uses Flat Scratch Init and Scratch Wavefront Offset SGPR registers (see
3919:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`):
3920
3921GFX6
3922  Flat scratch is not supported.
3923
3924GFX7-GFX8
3925
3926  1. The low word of Flat Scratch Init is 32-bit byte offset from
3927     ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` to the base of scratch backing memory
3928     being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel dispatch. This is
3929     the same value used in the Scratch Segment Buffer V# base address. The
3930     prolog must add the value of Scratch Wavefront Offset to get the
3931     wavefront's byte scratch backing memory offset from
3932     ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID``. Since FLAT_SCRATCH_LO is in units of 256
3933     bytes, the offset must be right shifted by 8 before moving into
3934     FLAT_SCRATCH_LO.
3935  2. The second word of Flat Scratch Init is 32-bit byte size of a single
3936     work-items scratch memory usage. This is directly loaded from the kernel
3937     dispatch packet Private Segment Byte Size and rounded up to a multiple of
3938     DWORD. Having CP load it once avoids loading it at the beginning of every
3939     wavefront. The prolog must move it to FLAT_SCRATCH_LO for use as FLAT
3940     SCRATCH SIZE.
3941
3942GFX9-GFX10
3943  The Flat Scratch Init is the 64-bit address of the base of scratch backing
3944  memory being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel dispatch. The
3945  prolog must add the value of Scratch Wavefront Offset and moved to the
3946  FLAT_SCRATCH pair for use as the flat scratch base in flat memory
3947  instructions.
3948
3949.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer:
3950
3951Private Segment Buffer
3952++++++++++++++++++++++
3953
3954A set of four SGPRs beginning at a four-aligned SGPR index are always selected
3955to serve as the scratch V# for the kernel as follows:
3956
3957  - If it is known during instruction selection that there is stack usage,
3958    SGPR0-3 is reserved for use as the scratch V#.  Stack usage is assumed if
3959    optimizations are disabled (``-O0``), if stack objects already exist (for
3960    locals, etc.), or if there are any function calls.
3961
3962  - Otherwise, four high numbered SGPRs beginning at a four-aligned SGPR index
3963    are reserved for the tentative scratch V#. These will be used if it is
3964    determined that spilling is needed.
3965
3966    - If no use is made of the tentative scratch V#, then it is unreserved,
3967      and the register count is determined ignoring it.
3968    - If use is made of the tentative scratch V#, then its register numbers
3969      are shifted to the first four-aligned SGPR index after the highest one
3970      allocated by the register allocator, and all uses are updated. The
3971      register count includes them in the shifted location.
3972    - In either case, if the processor has the SGPR allocation bug, the
3973      tentative allocation is not shifted or unreserved in order to ensure
3974      the register count is higher to workaround the bug.
3975
3976    .. note::
3977
3978      This approach of using a tentative scratch V# and shifting the register
3979      numbers if used avoids having to perform register allocation a second
3980      time if the tentative V# is eliminated. This is more efficient and
3981      avoids the problem that the second register allocation may perform
3982      spilling which will fail as there is no longer a scratch V#.
3983
3984When the kernel prolog code is being emitted it is known whether the scratch V#
3985described above is actually used. If it is, the prolog code must set it up by
3986copying the Private Segment Buffer to the scratch V# registers and then adding
3987the Private Segment Wavefront Offset to the queue base address in the V#. The
3988result is a V# with a base address pointing to the beginning of the wavefront
3989scratch backing memory.
3990
3991The Private Segment Buffer is always requested, but the Private Segment
3992Wavefront Offset is only requested if it is used (see
3993:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`).
3994
3995.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model:
3996
3997Memory Model
3998~~~~~~~~~~~~
3999
4000This section describes the mapping of LLVM memory model onto AMDGPU machine code
4001(see :ref:`memmodel`).
4002
4003The AMDGPU backend supports the memory synchronization scopes specified in
4004:ref:`amdgpu-memory-scopes`.
4005
4006The code sequences used to implement the memory model are defined in table
4007:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model-code-sequences-gfx6-gfx10-table`.
4008
4009The sequences specify the order of instructions that a single thread must
4010execute. The ``s_waitcnt`` and ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` are defined with respect
4011to other memory instructions executed by the same thread. This allows them to be
4012moved earlier or later which can allow them to be combined with other instances
4013of the same instruction, or hoisted/sunk out of loops to improve
4014performance. Only the instructions related to the memory model are given;
4015additional ``s_waitcnt`` instructions are required to ensure registers are
4016defined before being used. These may be able to be combined with the memory
4017model ``s_waitcnt`` instructions as described above.
4018
4019The AMDGPU backend supports the following memory models:
4020
4021  HSA Memory Model [HSA]_
4022    The HSA memory model uses a single happens-before relation for all address
4023    spaces (see :ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`).
4024  OpenCL Memory Model [OpenCL]_
4025    The OpenCL memory model which has separate happens-before relations for the
4026    global and local address spaces. Only a fence specifying both global and
4027    local address space, and seq_cst instructions join the relationships. Since
4028    the LLVM ``memfence`` instruction does not allow an address space to be
4029    specified the OpenCL fence has to conservatively assume both local and
4030    global address space was specified. However, optimizations can often be
4031    done to eliminate the additional ``s_waitcnt`` instructions when there are
4032    no intervening memory instructions which access the corresponding address
4033    space. The code sequences in the table indicate what can be omitted for the
4034    OpenCL memory. The target triple environment is used to determine if the
4035    source language is OpenCL (see :ref:`amdgpu-opencl`).
4036
4037``ds/flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions to local memory are termed LDS
4038operations.
4039
4040``buffer/global/flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions to global memory are
4041termed vector memory operations.
4042
4043For GFX6-GFX9:
4044
4045* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
4046* Each SA has multiple compute units (CU).
4047* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
4048* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same CU but may be
4049  executed by different SIMDs.
4050* Each CU has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
4051  executing on it.
4052* All LDS operations of a CU are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
4053  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
4054  execution order.
4055* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
4056  CU. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
4057  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
4058  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
4059  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
4060  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
4061  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
4062  operations performed by the same wavefront.
4063* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations and
4064  completion is reported to a wavefront in execution order. The exception is
4065  that for GFX7-GFX9 ``flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions can report out of
4066  vector memory order if they access LDS memory, and out of LDS operation order
4067  if they access global memory.
4068* The vector memory operations access a single vector L1 cache shared by all
4069  SIMDs a CU. Therefore, no special action is required for coherence between the
4070  lanes of a single wavefront, or for coherence between wavefronts in the same
4071  work-group. A ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required for coherence between
4072  wavefronts executing in different work-groups as they may be executing on
4073  different CUs.
4074* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L1 cache shared by all wavefronts
4075  on a group of CUs. The scalar and vector L1 caches are not coherent. However,
4076  scalar operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory
4077  model. See :ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`.
4078* The vector and scalar memory operations use an L2 cache shared by all CUs on
4079  the same agent.
4080* The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
4081  addresses.
4082* Each CU has a separate request queue per channel. Therefore, the vector and
4083  scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
4084  work-groups (which may be executing on different CUs) of an agent can be
4085  reordered relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0)`` is required to
4086  ensure synchronization between vector memory operations of different CUs. It
4087  ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
4088  subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
4089  requirements of acquire and release.
4090* The L2 cache can be kept coherent with other agents on some targets, or ranges
4091  of virtual addresses can be set up to bypass it to ensure system coherence.
4092
4093For GFX10:
4094
4095* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
4096* Each SA has multiple work-group processors (WGP).
4097* Each WGP has multiple compute units (CU).
4098* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
4099* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same
4100  WGP. In CU wavefront execution mode the wavefronts may be executed by
4101  different SIMDs in the same CU. In WGP wavefront execution mode the
4102  wavefronts may be executed by different SIMDs in different CUs in the same
4103  WGP.
4104* Each WGP has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
4105  executing on it.
4106* All LDS operations of a WGP are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
4107  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
4108  execution order.
4109* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
4110  WGP. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
4111  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
4112  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
4113  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
4114  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
4115  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
4116  operations performed by the same wavefront.
4117* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations.
4118  Completion of load/store/sample operations are reported to a wavefront in
4119  execution order of other load/store/sample operations performed by that
4120  wavefront.
4121* The vector memory operations access a vector L0 cache. There is a single L0
4122  cache per CU. Each SIMD of a CU accesses the same L0 cache. Therefore, no
4123  special action is required for coherence between the lanes of a single
4124  wavefront. However, a ``BUFFER_GL0_INV`` is required for coherence between
4125  wavefronts executing in the same work-group as they may be executing on SIMDs
4126  of different CUs that access different L0s. A ``BUFFER_GL0_INV`` is also
4127  required for coherence between wavefronts executing in different work-groups
4128  as they may be executing on different WGPs.
4129* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L0 cache shared by all wavefronts
4130  on a WGP. The scalar and vector L0 caches are not coherent. However, scalar
4131  operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory model. See
4132  :ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`.
4133* The vector and scalar memory L0 caches use an L1 cache shared by all WGPs on
4134  the same SA. Therefore, no special action is required for coherence between
4135  the wavefronts of a single work-group. However, a ``BUFFER_GL1_INV`` is
4136  required for coherence between wavefronts executing in different work-groups
4137  as they may be executing on different SAs that access different L1s.
4138* The L1 caches have independent quadrants to service disjoint ranges of virtual
4139  addresses.
4140* Each L0 cache has a separate request queue per L1 quadrant. Therefore, the
4141  vector and scalar memory operations performed by different wavefronts, whether
4142  executing in the same or different work-groups (which may be executing on
4143  different CUs accessing different L0s), can be reordered relative to each
4144  other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0) & vscnt(0)`` is required to ensure
4145  synchronization between vector memory operations of different wavefronts. It
4146  ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
4147  subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
4148  requirements of acquire, release and sequential consistency.
4149* The L1 caches use an L2 cache shared by all SAs on the same agent.
4150* The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
4151  addresses.
4152* Each L1 quadrant of a single SA accesses a different L2 channel. Each L1
4153  quadrant has a separate request queue per L2 channel. Therefore, the vector
4154  and scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
4155  work-groups (which may be executing on different SAs) of an agent can be
4156  reordered relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0) & vscnt(0)`` is
4157  required to ensure synchronization between vector memory operations of
4158  different SAs. It ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed
4159  before executing a subsequent vector memory and so can be used to meet the
4160  requirements of acquire, release and sequential consistency.
4161* The L2 cache can be kept coherent with other agents on some targets, or ranges
4162  of virtual addresses can be set up to bypass it to ensure system coherence.
4163
4164Private address space uses ``buffer_load/store`` using the scratch V#
4165(GFX6-GFX8), or ``scratch_load/store`` (GFX9-GFX10). Since only a single thread
4166is accessing the memory, atomic memory orderings are not meaningful, and all
4167accesses are treated as non-atomic.
4168
4169Constant address space uses ``buffer/global_load`` instructions (or equivalent
4170scalar memory instructions). Since the constant address space contents do not
4171change during the execution of a kernel dispatch it is not legal to perform
4172stores, and atomic memory orderings are not meaningful, and all access are
4173treated as non-atomic.
4174
4175A memory synchronization scope wider than work-group is not meaningful for the
4176group (LDS) address space and is treated as work-group.
4177
4178The memory model does not support the region address space which is treated as
4179non-atomic.
4180
4181Acquire memory ordering is not meaningful on store atomic instructions and is
4182treated as non-atomic.
4183
4184Release memory ordering is not meaningful on load atomic instructions and is
4185treated a non-atomic.
4186
4187Acquire-release memory ordering is not meaningful on load or store atomic
4188instructions and is treated as acquire and release respectively.
4189
4190AMDGPU backend only uses scalar memory operations to access memory that is
4191proven to not change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes
4192constant address space and global address space for program scope const
4193variables. Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the
4194scalar L1 cache to ensure it is coherent with the vector L1 cache. The scalar
4195and vector L1 caches are invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since
4196constant address space data may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
4197:ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`.
4198
4199The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
4200case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
4201accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
4202then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
4203return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
4204future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
4205creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
4206``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
4207
4208For GFX6-GFX9, scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address
4209space) is accessed with MTYPE NC_NV (non-coherent non-volatile). Since the
4210private address space is only accessed by a single thread, and is always
4211write-before-read, there is never a need to invalidate these entries from the L1
4212cache. Hence all cache invalidates are done as ``*_vol`` to only invalidate the
4213volatile cache lines.
4214
4215For GFX10, scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space)
4216is accessed with MTYPE NC (non-coherent). Since the private address space is
4217only accessed by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is
4218never a need to invalidate these entries from the L0 or L1 caches.
4219
4220For GFX10, wavefronts are executed in native mode with in-order reporting of
4221loads and sample instructions. In this mode vmcnt reports completion of load,
4222atomic with return and sample instructions in order, and the vscnt reports the
4223completion of store and atomic without return in order. See ``MEM_ORDERED``
4224field in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-compute_pgm_rsrc1-gfx6-gfx10-table`.
4225
4226In GFX10, wavefronts can be executed in WGP or CU wavefront execution mode:
4227
4228* In WGP wavefront execution mode the wavefronts of a work-group are executed
4229  on the SIMDs of both CUs of the WGP. Therefore, explicit management of the per
4230  CU L0 caches is required for work-group synchronization. Also accesses to L1
4231  at work-group scope need to be explicitly ordered as the accesses from
4232  different CUs are not ordered.
4233* In CU wavefront execution mode the wavefronts of a work-group are executed on
4234  the SIMDs of a single CU of the WGP. Therefore, all global memory access by
4235  the work-group access the same L0 which in turn ensures L1 accesses are
4236  ordered and so do not require explicit management of the caches for
4237  work-group synchronization.
4238
4239See ``WGP_MODE`` field in
4240:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-compute_pgm_rsrc1-gfx6-gfx10-table` and
4241:ref:`amdgpu-target-features`.
4242
4243On dGPU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as UC (uncached) to avoid needing
4244to invalidate the L2 cache. For GFX6-GFX9, this also causes it to be treated as
4245non-volatile and so is not invalidated by ``*_vol``. On APU it is accessed as CC
4246(cache coherent) and so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other
4247agents.

6441
6442See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state` for the kernel call
6443convention.
6444
6445The following is not part of the AMDGPU kernel calling convention but describes
6446how the AMDGPU implements function calls:
6447
64481.  Clang decides the kernarg layout to match the *HSA Programmer's Language
6449    Reference* [HSA]_.
6450
6451    - All structs are passed directly.
6452    - Lambda values are passed *TBA*.
6453
6454    .. TODO::
6455
6456      - Does this really follow HSA rules? Or are structs >16 bytes passed
6457        by-value struct?
6458      - What is ABI for lambda values?

6464
6465Non-Kernel Functions
6466++++++++++++++++++++
6467
6468This section describes the call convention ABI for functions other than the
6469outer kernel function.
6470
6471If a kernel has function calls then scratch is always allocated and used for
6472the call stack which grows from low address to high address using the swizzled
6473scratch address space.
6474
6475On entry to a function:
6476
64771.  SGPR0-3 contain a V# with the following properties (see
6478    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer`):
6479
6480    * Base address pointing to the beginning of the wavefront scratch backing
6481      memory.
6482    * Swizzled with dword element size and stride of wavefront size elements.
6483
64842.  The FLAT_SCRATCH register pair is setup. See
6485    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`.
64863.  GFX6-8: M0 register set to the size of LDS in bytes. See
6487    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`.
64884.  The EXEC register is set to the lanes active on entry to the function.
64895.  MODE register: *TBD*
64906.  VGPR0-31 and SGPR4-29 are used to pass function input arguments as described
6491    below.
64927.  SGPR30-31 return address (RA). The code address that the function must
6493    return to when it completes. The value is undefined if the function is *no
6494    return*.
64958.  SGPR32 is used for the stack pointer (SP). It is an unswizzled scratch
6496    offset relative to the beginning of the wavefront scratch backing memory.
6497
6498    The unswizzled SP can be used with buffer instructions as an unswizzled SGPR
6499    offset with the scratch V# in SGPR0-3 to access the stack in a swizzled
6500    manner.
6501
6502    The unswizzled SP value can be converted into the swizzled SP value by:
6503
6504      | swizzled SP = unswizzled SP / wavefront size
6505
6506    This may be used to obtain the private address space address of stack
6507    objects and to convert this address to a flat address by adding the flat
6508    scratch aperture base address.
6509
6510    The swizzled SP value is always 4 bytes aligned for the ``r600``
6511    architecture and 16 byte aligned for the ``amdgcn`` architecture.
6512
6513    .. note::
6514
6515      The ``amdgcn`` value is selected to avoid dynamic stack alignment for the
6516      OpenCL language which has the largest base type defined as 16 bytes.
6517
6518    On entry, the swizzled SP value is the address of the first function
6519    argument passed on the stack. Other stack passed arguments are positive
6520    offsets from the entry swizzled SP value.
6521
6522    The function may use positive offsets beyond the last stack passed argument
6523    for stack allocated local variables and register spill slots. If necessary,
6524    the function may align these to greater alignment than 16 bytes. After these
6525    the function may dynamically allocate space for such things as runtime sized
6526    ``alloca`` local allocations.
6527
6528    If the function calls another function, it will place any stack allocated
6529    arguments after the last local allocation and adjust SGPR32 to the address
6530    after the last local allocation.
6531
65329.  All other registers are unspecified.
653310. Any necessary ``waitcnt`` has been performed to ensure memory is available
6534    to the function.
6535
6536On exit from a function:
6537
65381.  VGPR0-31 and SGPR4-29 are used to pass function result arguments as
6539    described below. Any registers used are considered clobbered registers.
65402.  The following registers are preserved and have the same value as on entry:
6541
6542    * FLAT_SCRATCH
6543    * EXEC
6544    * GFX6-8: M0
6545    * All SGPR registers except the clobbered registers of SGPR4-31.
6546    * VGPR40-47
6547      VGPR56-63
6548      VGPR72-79
6549      VGPR88-95
6550      VGPR104-111
6551      VGPR120-127
6552      VGPR136-143
6553      VGPR152-159
6554      VGPR168-175
6555      VGPR184-191
6556      VGPR200-207
6557      VGPR216-223
6558      VGPR232-239
6559      VGPR248-255
6560
6561        *Except the argument registers, the VGPR cloberred and the preserved
6562        registers are intermixed at regular intervals in order to
6563        get a better occupancy.*
6564
6565      For the AMDGPU backend, an inter-procedural register allocation (IPRA)
6566      optimization may mark some of clobbered SGPR and VGPR registers as
6567      preserved if it can be determined that the called function does not change
6568      their value.
6569
65702.  The PC is set to the RA provided on entry.
65713.  MODE register: *TBD*.
65724.  All other registers are clobbered.
65735.  Any necessary ``waitcnt`` has been performed to ensure memory accessed by
6574    function is available to the caller.
6575
6576.. TODO::
6577
6578  - On gfx908 are all ACC registers clobbered?
6579
6580  - How are function results returned? The address of structured types is passed
6581    by reference, but what about other types?
6582
6583The function input arguments are made up of the formal arguments explicitly
6584declared by the source language function plus the implicit input arguments used
6585by the implementation.
6586
6587The source language input arguments are:
6588
65891. Any source language implicit ``this`` or ``self`` argument comes first as a
6590   pointer type.
65912. Followed by the function formal arguments in left to right source order.
6592
6593The source language result arguments are:
6594
65951. The function result argument.
6596
6597The source language input or result struct type arguments that are less than or
6598equal to 16 bytes, are decomposed recursively into their base type fields, and
6599each field is passed as if a separate argument. For input arguments, if the
6600called function requires the struct to be in memory, for example because its
6601address is taken, then the function body is responsible for allocating a stack
6602location and copying the field arguments into it. Clang terms this *direct
6603struct*.
6604
6605The source language input struct type arguments that are greater than 16 bytes,
6606are passed by reference. The caller is responsible for allocating a stack
6607location to make a copy of the struct value and pass the address as the input
6608argument. The called function is responsible to perform the dereference when
6609accessing the input argument. Clang terms this *by-value struct*.
6610
6611A source language result struct type argument that is greater than 16 bytes, is
6612returned by reference. The caller is responsible for allocating a stack location
6613to hold the result value and passes the address as the last input argument
6614(before the implicit input arguments). In this case there are no result
6615arguments. The called function is responsible to perform the dereference when
6616storing the result value. Clang terms this *structured return (sret)*.
6617
6618*TODO: correct the ``sret`` definition.*
6619
6620.. TODO::
6621
6622  Is this definition correct? Or is ``sret`` only used if passing in registers, and
6623  pass as non-decomposed struct as stack argument? Or something else? Is the
6624  memory location in the caller stack frame, or a stack memory argument and so
6625  no address is passed as the caller can directly write to the argument stack
6626  location? But then the stack location is still live after return. If an
6627  argument stack location is it the first stack argument or the last one?
6628
6629Lambda argument types are treated as struct types with an implementation defined
6630set of fields.
6631
6632.. TODO::
6633
6634  Need to specify the ABI for lambda types for AMDGPU.
6635
6636For AMDGPU backend all source language arguments (including the decomposed
6637struct type arguments) are passed in VGPRs unless marked ``inreg`` in which case
6638they are passed in SGPRs.
6639
6640The AMDGPU backend walks the function call graph from the leaves to determine
6641which implicit input arguments are used, propagating to each caller of the
6642function. The used implicit arguments are appended to the function arguments
6643after the source language arguments in the following order:

6723  VGPR31.
6724
6725  If there are more arguments than will fit in these registers, the remaining

6736  If there are more arguments than will fit in these registers, the remaining
6737  arguments are allocated on the stack in order on naturally aligned

6739
6740Note that decomposed struct type arguments may have some fields passed in
6741registers and some in memory.
6742
6743.. TODO::
6744
6745  So, a struct which can pass some fields as decomposed register arguments, will
6746  pass the rest as decomposed stack elements? But an argument that will not start
6747  in registers will not be decomposed and will be passed as a non-decomposed
6748  stack value?
6749
6750The following is not part of the AMDGPU function calling convention but
6751describes how the AMDGPU implements function calls:
6752
67531.  SGPR33 is used as a frame pointer (FP) if necessary. Like the SP it is an
6754    unswizzled scratch address. It is only needed if runtime sized ``alloca``
6755    are used, or for the reasons defined in ``SIFrameLowering``.
67562.  Runtime stack alignment is supported. SGPR34 is used as a base pointer (BP)
6757    to access the incoming stack arguments in the function. The BP is needed
6758    only when the function requires the runtime stack alignment.
6759
67603.  Allocating SGPR arguments on the stack are not supported.
6761
67624.  No CFI is currently generated. See
6763    :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`.
6764
6765    .. note::
6766
6767      CFI will be generated that defines the CFA as the unswizzled address
6768      relative to the wave scratch base in the unswizzled private address space
6769      of the lowest address stack allocated local variable.
6770
6771      ``DW_AT_frame_base`` will be defined as the swizzled address in the
6772      swizzled private address space by dividing the CFA by the wavefront size
6773      (since CFA is always at least dword aligned which matches the scratch
6774      swizzle element size).
6775
6776      If no dynamic stack alignment was performed, the stack allocated arguments
6777      are accessed as negative offsets relative to ``DW_AT_frame_base``, and the
6778      local variables and register spill slots are accessed as positive offsets
6779      relative to ``DW_AT_frame_base``.
6780
67815.  Function argument passing is implemented by copying the input physical
6782    registers to virtual registers on entry. The register allocator can spill if
6783    necessary. These are copied back to physical registers at call sites. The
6784    net effect is that each function call can have these values in entirely
6785    distinct locations. The IPRA can help avoid shuffling argument registers.
67866.  Call sites are implemented by setting up the arguments at positive offsets
6787    from SP. Then SP is incremented to account for the known frame size before
6788    the call and decremented after the call.
6789
6790    .. note::
6791
6792      The CFI will reflect the changed calculation needed to compute the CFA
6793      from SP.
6794
67957.  4 byte spill slots are used in the stack frame. One slot is allocated for an
6796    emergency spill slot. Buffer instructions are used for stack accesses and
6797    not the ``flat_scratch`` instruction.
6798
6799    .. TODO::
6800
6801      Explain when the emergency spill slot is used.
6802
6803.. TODO::
6804
6805  Possible broken issues:
6806
6807  - Stack arguments must be aligned to required alignment.
6808  - Stack is aligned to max(16, max formal argument alignment)
6809  - Direct argument < 64 bits should check register budget.
6810  - Register budget calculation should respect ``inreg`` for SGPR.
6811  - SGPR overflow is not handled.
6812  - struct with 1 member unpeeling is not checking size of member.
6813  - ``sret`` is after ``this`` pointer.
6814  - Caller is not implementing stack realignment: need an extra pointer.
6815  - Should say AMDGPU passes FP rather than SP.
6816  - Should CFI define CFA as address of locals or arguments. Difference is
6817    apparent when have implemented dynamic alignment.
6818  - If ``SCRATCH`` instruction could allow negative offsets, then can make FP be
6819    highest address of stack frame and use negative offset for locals. Would
6820    allow SP to be the same as FP and could support signal-handler-like as now
6821    have a real SP for the top of the stack.
6822  - How is ``sret`` passed on the stack? In argument stack area? Can it overlay
6823    arguments?

6825AMDPAL
6826------
6827
6828This section provides code conventions used when the target triple OS is
6829``amdpal`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`) for passing runtime parameters
6830from the application/runtime to each invocation of a hardware shader. These
6831parameters include both generic, application-controlled parameters called
6832*user data* as well as system-generated parameters that are a product of the
6833draw or dispatch execution.
6834
6835User Data
6836~~~~~~~~~
6837
6838Each hardware stage has a set of 32-bit *user data registers* which can be
6839written from a command buffer and then loaded into SGPRs when waves are launched
6840via a subsequent dispatch or draw operation. This is the way most arguments are
6841passed from the application/runtime to a hardware shader.
6842
6843Compute User Data
6844~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6845
6846Compute shader user data mappings are simpler than graphics shaders and have a
6847fixed mapping.
6848
6849Note that there are always 10 available *user data entries* in registers -
6850entries beyond that limit must be fetched from memory (via the spill table
6851pointer) by the shader.

6880     + 1-15        Application Controlled User Data

6885     +             Instance Offset (First Stage Only)
6886     ============= ================================
6887
6888  The placement of the global internal table remains fixed in the first *user
6889  data SGPR register*. Otherwise all parameters are optional, and can be mapped
6890  to any desired *user data SGPR register*, with the following restrictions:
6891
6892  * Draw Index, Vertex Offset, and Instance Offset can only be used by the first
6893    active hardware stage in a graphics pipeline (i.e. where the API vertex
6894    shader runs).
6895
6896  * Application-controlled user data must be mapped into a contiguous range of
6897    user data registers.
6898
6899  * The application-controlled user data range supports compaction remapping, so
6900    only *entries* that are actually consumed by the shader must be assigned to
6901    corresponding *registers*. Note that in order to support an efficient runtime
6902    implementation, the remapping must pack *registers* in the same order as
6903    *entries*, with unused *entries* removed.
6904
6905.. _pal_global_internal_table:
6906
6907Global Internal Table
6908~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6909
6910The global internal table is a table of *shader resource descriptors* (SRDs)
6911that define how certain engine-wide, runtime-managed resources should be
6912accessed from a shader. The majority of these resources have HW-defined formats,
6913and it is up to the compiler to write/read data as required by the target
6914hardware.
6915
6916The following table illustrates the required format:

6939
6940  The pointer to the global internal table passed to the shader as user data
6941  is a 32-bit pointer. The top 32 bits should be assumed to be the same as
6942  the top 32 bits of the pipeline, so the shader may use the program
6943  counter's top 32 bits.

7213the assembler will automatically use optimal encoding based on its operands. To
7214force specific encoding, one can add a suffix to the opcode of the instruction:
7215
7216* _e32 for 32-bit VOP1/VOP2/VOPC
7217* _e64 for 64-bit VOP3

7334AMDGPU ABI defines auxiliary data in output code object. In assembly source,
7335one can specify them with assembler directives.
7336
7337.hsa_code_object_version major, minor
7338+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
7339
7340*major* and *minor* are integers that specify the version of the HSA code
7341object that will be generated by the assembler.
7342
7343.hsa_code_object_isa [major, minor, stepping, vendor, arch]
7344+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
7345
7346
7347*major*, *minor*, and *stepping* are all integers that describe the instruction
7348set architecture (ISA) version of the assembly program.
7349
7350*vendor* and *arch* are quoted strings. *vendor* should always be equal to
7351"AMD" and *arch* should always be equal to "AMDGPU".
7352
7353By default, the assembler will derive the ISA version, *vendor*, and *arch*
7354from the value of the -mcpu option that is passed to the assembler.

7357
7358.amdgpu_hsa_kernel (name)
7359+++++++++++++++++++++++++
7360
7361This directives specifies that the symbol with given name is a kernel entry
7362point (label) and the object should contain corresponding symbol of type
7363STT_AMDGPU_HSA_KERNEL.
7364
7365.amd_kernel_code_t
7366++++++++++++++++++
7367
7368This directive marks the beginning of a list of key / value pairs that are used
7369to specify the amd_kernel_code_t object that will be emitted by the assembler.
7370The list must be terminated by the *.end_amd_kernel_code_t* directive. For any
7371amd_kernel_code_t values that are unspecified a default value will be used. The
7372default value for all keys is 0, with the following exceptions:
7373
7374- *amd_code_version_major* defaults to 1.
7375- *amd_kernel_code_version_minor* defaults to 2.
7376- *amd_machine_kind* defaults to 1.
7377- *amd_machine_version_major*, *machine_version_minor*, and
7378  *amd_machine_version_stepping* are derived from the value of the -mcpu option
7379  that is passed to the assembler.
7380- *kernel_code_entry_byte_offset* defaults to 256.
7381- *wavefront_size* defaults 6 for all targets before GFX10. For GFX10 onwards
7382  defaults to 6 if target feature ``wavefrontsize64`` is enabled, otherwise 5.
7383  Note that wavefront size is specified as a power of two, so a value of **n**
7384  means a size of 2^ **n**.
7385- *call_convention* defaults to -1.
7386- *kernarg_segment_alignment*, *group_segment_alignment*, and
7387  *private_segment_alignment* default to 4. Note that alignments are specified
7388  as a power of 2, so a value of **n** means an alignment of 2^ **n**.
7389- *enable_wgp_mode* defaults to 1 if target feature ``cumode`` is disabled for
7390  GFX10 onwards.
7391- *enable_mem_ordered* defaults to 1 for GFX10 onwards.
7392
7393The *.amd_kernel_code_t* directive must be placed immediately after the
7394function label and before any instructions.

7509Code Object V3 Directives (-mattr=+code-object-v3)
7510~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7511
7512Directives which begin with ``.amdgcn`` are valid for all ``amdgcn``
7513architecture processors, and are not OS-specific. Directives which begin with
7514``.amdhsa`` are specific to ``amdgcn`` architecture processors when the
7515``amdhsa`` OS is specified. See :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples` and
7516:ref:`amdgpu-processors`.
7517
7518.amdgcn_target <target>
7519+++++++++++++++++++++++
7520
7521Optional directive which declares the target supported by the containing
7522assembler source file. Valid values are described in
7523:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-target-identification`. Used by the assembler
7524to validate command-line options such as ``-triple``, ``-mcpu``, and those
7525which specify target features.
7526
7527.amdhsa_kernel <name>
7528+++++++++++++++++++++
7529
7530Creates a correctly aligned AMDHSA kernel descriptor and a symbol,
7531``<name>.kd``, in the current location of the current section. Only valid when
7532the OS is ``amdhsa``. ``<name>`` must be a symbol that labels the first
7533instruction to execute, and does not need to be previously defined.
7534
7535Marks the beginning of a list of directives used to generate the bytes of a
7536kernel descriptor, as described in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`.
7537Directives which may appear in this list are described in
7538:ref:`amdhsa-kernel-directives-table`. Directives may appear in any order, must
7539be valid for the target being assembled for, and cannot be repeated. Directives
7540support the range of values specified by the field they reference in
7541:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`. If a directive is not specified, it is
7542assumed to have its default value, unless it is marked as "Required", in which
7543case it is an error to omit the directive. This list of directives is
7544terminated by an ``.end_amdhsa_kernel`` directive.

7716If an assembly source file contains multiple kernels and/or functions, the
7717:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-assembler-symbol-next_free_vgpr` and
7718:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-assembler-symbol-next_free_sgpr` symbols may be reset using
7719the ``.set <symbol>, <expression>`` directive. For example, in the case of two
7720kernels, where ``function1`` is only called from ``kernel1`` it is sufficient
7721to group the function with the kernel that calls it and reset the symbols
7722between the two connected components:

7786These symbols cannot identify connected components in order to automatically
7787track the usage for each kernel. However, in some cases careful organization of
7788the kernels and functions in the source file means there is minimal additional
7789effort required to accurately calculate GPR usage.
