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

103Use the Clang options ``-mcpu=<target-id>`` or ``--offload-arch=<target-id>`` to
104specify the AMDGPU processor together with optional target features. See
105:ref:`amdgpu-target-id` and :ref:`amdgpu-target-features` for AMD GPU target
106specific information.
107
108Every processor supports every OS ABI (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`) with the following exceptions:
109
110* ``amdhsa`` is not supported in ``r600`` architecture (see :ref:`amdgpu-architecture-table`).

434Target Features
435---------------
436
437Target features control how code is generated to support certain
438processor specific features. Not all target features are supported by
439all processors. The runtime must ensure that the features supported by
440the device used to execute the code match the features enabled when
441generating the code. A mismatch of features may result in incorrect
442execution, or a reduction in performance.
443
444The target features supported by each processor is listed in
445:ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`.
446
447Target features are controlled by exactly one of the following Clang
448options:
449
450``-mcpu=<target-id>`` or ``--offload-arch=<target-id>``
451
452  The ``-mcpu`` and ``--offload-arch`` can specify the target feature as
453  optional components of the target ID. If omitted, the target feature has the
454  ``any`` value. See :ref:`amdgpu-target-id`.
455
456``-m[no-]<target-feature>``
457
458  Target features not specified by the target ID are specified using a
459  separate option. These target features can have an ``on`` or ``off``
460  value.  ``on`` is specified by omitting the ``no-`` prefix, and
461  ``off`` is specified by including the ``no-`` prefix. The default
462  if not specified is ``off``.
463
464For example:
465
466``-mcpu=gfx908:xnack+``
467  Enable the ``xnack`` feature.
468``-mcpu=gfx908:xnack-``
469  Disable the ``xnack`` feature.
470``-mcumode``
471  Enable the ``cumode`` feature.
472``-mno-cumode``
473  Disable the ``cumode`` feature.

538Target ID
539---------
540
541AMDGPU supports target IDs. See `Clang Offload Bundler
542<https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_ for a general
543description. The AMDGPU target specific information is:
544
545**processor**
546  Is an AMDGPU processor or alternative processor name specified in
547  :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`. The non-canonical form target ID allows both
548  the primary processor and alternative processor names. The canonical form
549  target ID only allow the primary processor name.
550
551**target-feature**
552  Is a target feature name specified in :ref:`amdgpu-target-features-table` that
553  is supported by the processor. The target features supported by each processor
554  is specified in :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`. Those that can be specified in
555  a target ID are marked as being controlled by ``-mcpu`` and
556  ``--offload-arch``. Each target feature must appear at most once in a target
557  ID. The non-canonical form target ID allows the target features to be
558  specified in any order. The canonical form target ID requires the target
559  features to be specified in alphabetic order.
560
561.. _amdgpu-target-id-v2-v3:
562
563Code Object V2 to V3 Target ID
564~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
565
566The target ID syntax for code object V2 to V3 is the same as defined in `Clang
567Offload Bundler <https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_ except
568when used in the :ref:`amdgpu-assembler-directive-amdgcn-target` assembler
569directive and the bundle entry ID. In those cases it has the following BNF
570syntax:
571
572.. code::
573
574  <target-id> ::== <processor> ( "+" <target-feature> )*
575
576Where a target feature is omitted if *Off* and present if *On* or *Any*.
577
578.. note::
579
580  The code object V2 to V3 cannot represent *Any* and treats it the same as
581  *On*.
582
583.. _amdgpu-embedding-bundled-objects:
584
585Embedding Bundled Code Objects
586------------------------------
587
588AMDGPU supports the HIP and OpenMP languages that perform code object embedding
589as described in `Clang Offload Bundler
590<https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_.
591
592.. note::
593
594  The target ID syntax used for code object V2 to V3 for a bundle entry ID
595  differs from that used elsewhere. See :ref:`amdgpu-target-id-v2-v3`.
596
597.. _amdgpu-address-spaces:
598
599Address Spaces
600--------------
601
602The AMDGPU architecture supports a number of memory address spaces. The address
603space names use the OpenCL standard names, with some additions.
604
605The AMDGPU address spaces correspond to target architecture specific LLVM
606address space numbers used in LLVM IR.
607
608The AMDGPU address spaces are described in
609:ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces-table`. Only 64-bit process address spaces are
610supported for the ``amdgcn`` target.

629     ================================= =============== =========== ================ ======= ============================
630
631**Generic**
632  The generic address space is supported unless the *Target Properties* column
633  of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` specifies *Does not support generic address
634  space*.
635
636  The generic address space uses the hardware flat address support for two fixed
637  ranges of virtual addresses (the private and local apertures), that are
638  outside the range of addressable global memory, to map from a flat address to
639  a private or local address. This uses FLAT instructions that can take a flat
640  address and access global, private (scratch), and group (LDS) memory depending
641  on if the address is within one of the aperture ranges.
642
643  Flat access to scratch requires hardware aperture setup and setup in the
644  kernel prologue (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`). Flat
645  access to LDS requires hardware aperture setup and M0 (GFX7-GFX8) register
646  setup (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`).
647
648  To convert between a private or group address space address (termed a segment
649  address) and a flat address the base address of the corresponding aperture
650  can be used. For GFX7-GFX8 these are available in the
651  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-hsa-aql-queue` the address of which can be obtained with
652  Queue Ptr SGPR (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). For
653  GFX9-GFX10 the aperture base addresses are directly available as inline
654  constant registers ``SRC_SHARED_BASE/LIMIT`` and ``SRC_PRIVATE_BASE/LIMIT``.
655  In 64-bit address mode the aperture sizes are 2^32 bytes and the base is
656  aligned to 2^32 which makes it easier to convert from flat to segment or
657  segment to flat.
658
659  A global address space address has the same value when used as a flat address
660  so no conversion is needed.
661
662**Global and Constant**
663  The global and constant address spaces both use global virtual addresses,
664  which are the same virtual address space used by the CPU. However, some
665  virtual addresses may only be accessible to the CPU, some only accessible
666  by the GPU, and some by both.
667
668  Using the constant address space indicates that the data will not change
669  during the execution of the kernel. This allows scalar read instructions to
670  be used. As the constant address space could only be modified on the host
671  side, a generic pointer loaded from the constant address space is safe to be
672  assumed as a global pointer since only the device global memory is visible
673  and managed on the host side. The vector and scalar L1 caches are invalidated
674  of volatile data before each kernel dispatch execution to allow constant
675  memory to change values between kernel dispatches.
676
677**Region**
678  The region address space uses the hardware Global Data Store (GDS). All
679  wavefronts executing on the same device will access the same memory for any
680  given region address. However, the same region address accessed by wavefronts
681  executing on different devices will access different memory. It is higher
682  performance than global memory. It is allocated by the runtime. The data
683  store (DS) instructions can be used to access it.
684
685**Local**
686  The local address space uses the hardware Local Data Store (LDS) which is
687  automatically allocated when the hardware creates the wavefronts of a
688  work-group, and freed when all the wavefronts of a work-group have
689  terminated. All wavefronts belonging to the same work-group will access the
690  same memory for any given local address. However, the same local address
691  accessed by wavefronts belonging to different work-groups will access
692  different memory. It is higher performance than global memory. The data store
693  (DS) instructions can be used to access it.
694
695**Private**
696  The private address space uses the hardware scratch memory support which
697  automatically allocates memory when it creates a wavefront and frees it when
698  a wavefronts terminates. The memory accessed by a lane of a wavefront for any
699  given private address will be different to the memory accessed by another lane
700  of the same or different wavefront for the same private address.
701
702  If a kernel dispatch uses scratch, then the hardware allocates memory from a
703  pool of backing memory allocated by the runtime for each wavefront. The lanes
704  of the wavefront access this using dword (4 byte) interleaving. The mapping
705  used from private address to backing memory address is:
706
707    ``wavefront-scratch-base +
708    ((private-address / 4) * wavefront-size * 4) +
709    (wavefront-lane-id * 4) + (private-address % 4)``
710
711  If each lane of a wavefront accesses the same private address, the
712  interleaving results in adjacent dwords being accessed and hence requires
713  fewer cache lines to be fetched.
714
715  There are different ways that the wavefront scratch base address is
716  determined by a wavefront (see
717  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`).
718
719  Scratch memory can be accessed in an interleaved manner using buffer
720  instructions with the scratch buffer descriptor and per wavefront scratch
721  offset, by the scratch instructions, or by flat instructions. Multi-dword
722  access is not supported except by flat and scratch instructions in
723  GFX9-GFX10.
724
725**Constant 32-bit**
726  *TODO*
727
728**Buffer Fat Pointer**
729  The buffer fat pointer is an experimental address space that is currently
730  unsupported in the backend. It exposes a non-integral pointer that is in
731  the future intended to support the modelling of 128-bit buffer descriptors
732  plus a 32-bit offset into the buffer (in total encapsulating a 160-bit
733  *pointer*), allowing normal LLVM load/store/atomic operations to be used to
734  model the buffer descriptors used heavily in graphics workloads targeting
735  the backend.

739Memory Scopes
740-------------
741
742This section provides LLVM memory synchronization scopes supported by the AMDGPU
743backend memory model when the target triple OS is ``amdhsa`` (see
744:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model` and :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
745
746The memory model supported is based on the HSA memory model [HSA]_ which is
747based in turn on HRF-indirect with scope inclusion [HRF]_. The happens-before
748relation is transitive over the synchronizes-with relation independent of scope
749and synchronizes-with allows the memory scope instances to be inclusive (see
750table :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-llvm-sync-scopes-table`).
751
752This is different to the OpenCL [OpenCL]_ memory model which does not have scope
753inclusion and requires the memory scopes to exactly match. However, this
754is conservatively correct for OpenCL.

980``e_ident[EI_CLASS]``
981  The ELF class is:
982
983  * ``ELFCLASS32`` for ``r600`` architecture.
984
985  * ``ELFCLASS64`` for ``amdgcn`` architecture which only supports 64-bit
986    process address space applications.
987
988``e_ident[EI_DATA]``
989  All AMDGPU targets use ``ELFDATA2LSB`` for little-endian byte ordering.
990
991``e_ident[EI_OSABI]``
992  One of the following AMDGPU target architecture specific OS ABIs
993  (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`):
994
995  * ``ELFOSABI_NONE`` for *unknown* OS.
996
997  * ``ELFOSABI_AMDGPU_HSA`` for ``amdhsa`` OS.
998
999  * ``ELFOSABI_AMDGPU_PAL`` for ``amdpal`` OS.
1000
1001  * ``ELFOSABI_AMDGPU_MESA3D`` for ``mesa3D`` OS.
1002
1003``e_ident[EI_ABIVERSION]``
1004  The ABI version of the AMDGPU target architecture specific OS ABI to which the code
1005  object conforms:
1006
1007  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_HSA_V2`` is used to specify the version of AMD HSA
1008    runtime ABI for code object V2. Specify using the Clang option
1009    ``-mcode-object-version=2``.
1010
1011  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_HSA_V3`` is used to specify the version of AMD HSA
1012    runtime ABI for code object V3. Specify using the Clang option
1013    ``-mcode-object-version=3``. This is the default code object
1014    version if not specified.
1015
1016  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_HSA_V4`` is used to specify the version of AMD HSA
1017    runtime ABI for code object V4. Specify using the Clang option
1018    ``-mcode-object-version=4``.
1019
1020  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_PAL`` is used to specify the version of AMD PAL
1021    runtime ABI.
1022
1023  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_MESA3D`` is used to specify the version of AMD MESA
1024    3D runtime ABI.
1025
1026``e_type``
1027  Can be one of the following values:
1028
1029
1030  ``ET_REL``
1031    The type produced by the AMDGPU backend compiler as it is relocatable code
1032    object.
1033
1034  ``ET_DYN``
1035    The type produced by the linker as it is a shared code object.
1036
1037  The AMD HSA runtime loader requires a ``ET_DYN`` code object.
1038
1039``e_machine``
1040  The value ``EM_AMDGPU`` is used for the machine for all processors supported
1041  by the ``r600`` and ``amdgcn`` architectures (see
1042  :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`). The specific processor is specified in the
1043  ``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_VERSION`` note record for code object V2 (see
1044  :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2`) and in the ``EF_AMDGPU_MACH`` bit field of the
1045  ``e_flags`` for code object V3 to V4 (see
1046  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-header-e_flags-table-v3` and
1047  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-header-e_flags-table-v4`).
1048
1049``e_entry``
1050  The entry point is 0 as the entry points for individual kernels must be
1051  selected in order to invoke them through AQL packets.
1052
1053``e_flags``
1054  The AMDGPU backend uses the following ELF header flags:

1242
1243``.debug``\ *\**
1244  The standard DWARF sections. See :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-debug-information` for
1245  information on the DWARF produced by the AMDGPU backend.
1246
1247``.dynamic``, ``.dynstr``, ``.dynsym``, ``.hash``
1248  The standard sections used by a dynamic loader.

1253
1254``.rela``\ *name*, ``.rela.dyn``
1255  For relocatable code objects, *name* is the name of the section that the
1256  relocation records apply. For example, ``.rela.text`` is the section name for
1257  relocation records associated with the ``.text`` section.
1258
1259  For linked shared code objects, ``.rela.dyn`` contains all the relocation
1260  records from each of the relocatable code object's ``.rela``\ *name* sections.

1272Note Records
1273------------
1274
1275The AMDGPU backend code object contains ELF note records in the ``.note``
1276section. The set of generated notes and their semantics depend on the code
1277object version; see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2` and
1278:ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3-v4`.
1279
1280As required by ``ELFCLASS32`` and ``ELFCLASS64``, minimal zero-byte padding
1281must be generated after the ``name`` field to ensure the ``desc`` field is 4
1282byte aligned. In addition, minimal zero-byte padding must be generated to
1283ensure the ``desc`` field size is a multiple of 4 bytes. The ``sh_addralign``
1284field of the ``.note`` section must be at least 4 to indicate at least 8 byte
1285alignment.

1334
1335``NT_AMD_HSA_CODE_OBJECT_VERSION``
1336  Specifies the code object version number. The description field has the
1337  following layout:
1338
1339  .. code:: c
1340
1341    struct amdgpu_hsa_note_code_object_version_s {
1342      uint32_t major_version;
1343      uint32_t minor_version;
1344    };
1345
1346  The ``major_version`` has a value less than or equal to 2.
1347
1348``NT_AMD_HSA_HSAIL``
1349  Specifies the HSAIL properties used by the HSAIL Finalizer. The description
1350  field has the following layout:
1351
1352  .. code:: c
1353
1354    struct amdgpu_hsa_note_hsail_s {
1355      uint32_t hsail_major_version;
1356      uint32_t hsail_minor_version;
1357      uint8_t profile;
1358      uint8_t machine_model;
1359      uint8_t default_float_round;
1360    };
1361
1362``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_VERSION``
1363  Specifies the target ISA version. The description field has the following layout:
1364
1365  .. code:: c
1366
1367    struct amdgpu_hsa_note_isa_s {
1368      uint16_t vendor_name_size;
1369      uint16_t architecture_name_size;
1370      uint32_t major;
1371      uint32_t minor;
1372      uint32_t stepping;
1373      char vendor_and_architecture_name[1];
1374    };
1375
1376  ``vendor_name_size`` and ``architecture_name_size`` are the length of the
1377  vendor and architecture names respectively, including the NUL character.
1378
1379  ``vendor_and_architecture_name`` contains the NUL terminates string for the
1380  vendor, immediately followed by the NUL terminated string for the
1381  architecture.
1382
1383  This note record is used by the HSA runtime loader.
1384
1385  Code object V2 only supports a limited number of processors and has fixed
1386  settings for target features. See
1387  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-note-record-supported_processors-v2-table` for a list of
1388  processors and the corresponding target ID. In the table the note record ISA
1389  name is a concatenation of the vendor name, architecture name, major, minor,
1390  and stepping separated by a ":".
1391
1392  The target ID column shows the processor name and fixed target features used
1393  by the LLVM compiler. The LLVM compiler does not generate a
1394  ``NT_AMD_HSA_HSAIL`` note record.
1395
1396  A code object generated by the Finalizer also uses code object V2 and always
1397  generates a ``NT_AMD_HSA_HSAIL`` note record. The processor name and
1398  ``sramecc`` target feature is as shown in
1399  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-note-record-supported_processors-v2-table` but the ``xnack``
1400  target feature is specified by the ``EF_AMDGPU_FEATURE_XNACK_V2`` ``e_flags``
1401  bit.
1402
1403``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_NAME``
1404  Specifies the target ISA name as a non-NUL terminated string.
1405
1406  This note record is not used by the HSA runtime loader.
1407
1408  See the ``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_VERSION`` note record description of the code object
1409  V2's limited support of processors and fixed settings for target features.
1410
1411  See :ref:`amdgpu-elf-note-record-supported_processors-v2-table` for a mapping
1412  from the string to the corresponding target ID. If the ``xnack`` target
1413  feature is supported and enabled, the string produced by the LLVM compiler
1414  will may have a ``+xnack`` appended. The Finlizer did not do the appending and
1415  instead used the ``EF_AMDGPU_FEATURE_XNACK_V2`` ``e_flags`` bit.
1416
1417``NT_AMD_HSA_METADATA``
1418  Specifies extensible metadata associated with the code objects executed on HSA
1419  [HSA]_ compatible runtimes (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`). It is required when the
1420  target triple OS is ``amdhsa`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`). See
1421  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v2` for the syntax of the code object
1422  metadata string.

1520Global variable
1521  Global variables both used and defined by the compilation unit.

1523  If the symbol is defined in the compilation unit then it is allocated in the
1524  appropriate section according to if it has initialized data or is readonly.
1525
1526  If the symbol is external then its section is ``STN_UNDEF`` and the loader
1527  will resolve relocations using the definition provided by another code object
1528  or explicitly defined by the runtime.
1529
1530  If the symbol resides in local/group memory (LDS) then its section is the
1531  special processor specific section name ``SHN_AMDGPU_LDS``, and the
1532  ``st_value`` field describes alignment requirements as it does for common

1549.. _amdgpu-relocation-records:
1550
1551Relocation Records
1552------------------
1553
1554AMDGPU backend generates ``Elf64_Rela`` relocation records. Supported
1555relocatable fields are:
1556
1557``word32``
1558  This specifies a 32-bit field occupying 4 bytes with arbitrary byte
1559  alignment. These values use the same byte order as other word values in the
1560  AMDGPU architecture.
1561
1562``word64``
1563  This specifies a 64-bit field occupying 8 bytes with arbitrary byte
1564  alignment. These values use the same byte order as other word values in the
1565  AMDGPU architecture.
1566
1567Following notations are used for specifying relocation calculations:
1568
1569**A**
1570  Represents the addend used to compute the value of the relocatable field.
1571
1572**G**
1573  Represents the offset into the global offset table at which the relocation
1574  entry's symbol will reside during execution.
1575
1576**GOT**
1577  Represents the address of the global offset table.
1578
1579**P**
1580  Represents the place (section offset for ``et_rel`` or address for ``et_dyn``)
1581  of the storage unit being relocated (computed using ``r_offset``).
1582
1583**S**
1584  Represents the value of the symbol whose index resides in the relocation
1585  entry. Relocations not using this must specify a symbol index of
1586  ``STN_UNDEF``.
1587
1588**B**
1589  Represents the base address of a loaded executable or shared object which is
1590  the difference between the ELF address and the actual load address.
1591  Relocations using this are only valid in executable or shared objects.
1592
1593The following relocation types are supported:

1629
1630Loaded Code Object Path Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
1631---------------------------------------------------------
1632
1633The AMD GPU code object loader represents the path of the ELF shared object from
1634which the code object was loaded as a textual Uniform Resource Identifier (URI).
1635Note that the code object is the in memory loaded relocated form of the ELF
1636shared object.  Multiple code objects may be loaded at different memory
1637addresses in the same process from the same ELF shared object.
1638
1639The loaded code object path URI syntax is defined by the following BNF syntax:
1640
1641.. code::
1642
1643  code_object_uri ::== file_uri | memory_uri
1644  file_uri        ::== "file://" file_path [ range_specifier ]
1645  memory_uri      ::== "memory://" process_id range_specifier
1646  range_specifier ::== [ "#" | "?" ] "offset=" number "&" "size=" number
1647  file_path       ::== URI_ENCODED_OS_FILE_PATH
1648  process_id      ::== DECIMAL_NUMBER
1649  number          ::== HEX_NUMBER | DECIMAL_NUMBER | OCTAL_NUMBER
1650
1651**number**
1652  Is a C integral literal where hexadecimal values are prefixed by "0x" or "0X",
1653  and octal values by "0".
1654
1655**file_path**
1656  Is the file's path specified as a URI encoded UTF-8 string. In URI encoding,
1657  every character that is not in the regular expression ``[a-zA-Z0-9/_.~-]`` is
1658  encoded as two uppercase hexadecimal digits proceeded by "%".  Directories in
1659  the path are separated by "/".
1660
1661**offset**
1662  Is a 0-based byte offset to the start of the code object.  For a file URI, it
1663  is from the start of the file specified by the ``file_path``, and if omitted
1664  defaults to 0. For a memory URI, it is the memory address and is required.
1665
1666**size**
1667  Is the number of bytes in the code object.  For a file URI, if omitted it
1668  defaults to the size of the file.  It is required for a memory URI.
1669
1670**process_id**
1671  Is the identity of the process owning the memory.  For Linux it is the C
1672  unsigned integral decimal literal for the process ID (PID).
1673
1674For example:
1675
1676.. code::
1677
1678  file:///dir1/dir2/file1
1679  file:///dir3/dir4/file2#offset=0x2000&size=3000

1685=======================
1686
1687.. warning::
1688
1689   This section describes **provisional support** for AMDGPU DWARF [DWARF]_ that
1690   is not currently fully implemented and is subject to change.
1691
1692AMDGPU generates DWARF [DWARF]_ debugging information ELF sections (see
1693:ref:`amdgpu-elf-code-object`) which contain information that maps the code
1694object executable code and data to the source language constructs. It can be
1695used by tools such as debuggers and profilers. It uses features defined in
1696:doc:`AMDGPUDwarfExtensionsForHeterogeneousDebugging` that are made available in
1697DWARF Version 4 and DWARF Version 5 as an LLVM vendor extension.
1698
1699This section defines the AMDGPU target architecture specific DWARF mappings.
1700
1701.. _amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier:
1702
1703Register Identifier
1704-------------------
1705
1706This section defines the AMDGPU target architecture register numbers used in
1707DWARF operation expressions (see DWARF Version 5 section 2.5 and
1708:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`) and Call Frame Information
1709instructions (see DWARF Version 5 section 6.4 and
1710:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`).
1711
1712A single code object can contain code for kernels that have different wavefront
1713sizes. The vector registers and some scalar registers are based on the wavefront
1714size. AMDGPU defines distinct DWARF registers for each wavefront size. This
1715simplifies the consumer of the DWARF so that each register has a fixed size,
1716rather than being dynamic according to the wavefront size mode. Similarly,
1717distinct DWARF registers are defined for those registers that vary in size
1718according to the process address size. This allows a consumer to treat a
1719specific AMDGPU processor as a single architecture regardless of how it is
1720configured at run time. The compiler explicitly specifies the DWARF registers
1721that match the mode in which the code it is generating will be executed.
1722
1723DWARF registers are encoded as numbers, which are mapped to architecture
1724registers. The mapping for AMDGPU is defined in
1725:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-mapping-table`. All AMDGPU targets use the same
1726mapping.

1801The vector registers are represented as the full size for the wavefront. They
1802are organized as consecutive dwords (32-bits), one per lane, with the dword at
1803the least significant bit position corresponding to lane 0 and so forth. DWARF
1804location expressions involving the ``DW_OP_LLVM_offset`` and
1805``DW_OP_LLVM_push_lane`` operations are used to select the part of the vector
1806register corresponding to the lane that is executing the current thread of
1807execution in languages that are implemented using a SIMD or SIMT execution
1808model.
1809
1810If the wavefront size is 32 lanes then the wavefront 32 mode register
1811definitions are used. If the wavefront size is 64 lanes then the wavefront 64
1812mode register definitions are used. Some AMDGPU targets support executing in
1813both wavefront 32 and wavefront 64 mode. The register definitions corresponding
1814to the wavefront mode of the generated code will be used.
1815
1816If code is generated to execute in a 32-bit process address space, then the
181732-bit process address space register definitions are used. If code is generated
1818to execute in a 64-bit process address space, then the 64-bit process address
1819space register definitions are used. The ``amdgcn`` target only supports the
182064-bit process address space.

1901The ``DW_ASPACE_none`` address space is the default target architecture address
1902space used in DWARF operations that do not specify an address space. It
1903therefore has to map to the global address space so that the ``DW_OP_addr*`` and
1904related operations can refer to addresses in the program code.
1905
1906The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_generic`` address space allows location expressions to
1907specify the flat address space. If the address corresponds to an address in the
1908local address space, then it corresponds to the wavefront that is executing the
1909focused thread of execution. If the address corresponds to an address in the
1910private address space, then it corresponds to the lane that is executing the
1911focused thread of execution for languages that are implemented using a SIMD or
1912SIMT execution model.
1913
1914.. note::
1915
1916  CUDA-like languages such as HIP that do not have address spaces in the
1917  language type system, but do allow variables to be allocated in different
1918  address spaces, need to explicitly specify the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_generic``
1919  address space in the DWARF expression operations as the default address space
1920  is the global address space.
1921
1922The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_local`` address space allows location expressions to
1923specify the local address space corresponding to the wavefront that is executing
1924the focused thread of execution.
1925
1926The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address space allows location expressions
1927to specify the private address space corresponding to the lane that is executing
1928the focused thread of execution for languages that are implemented using a SIMD
1929or SIMT execution model.
1930
1931The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address space allows location expressions
1932to specify the unswizzled private address space corresponding to the wavefront
1933that is executing the focused thread of execution. The wavefront view of private
1934memory is the per wavefront unswizzled backing memory layout defined in
1935:ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`, such that address 0 corresponds to the first
1936location for the backing memory of the wavefront (namely the address is not
1937offset by ``wavefront-scratch-base``). The following formula can be used to
1938convert from a ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address to a
1939``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address:
1940
1941::
1942
1943  private-address-wavefront =
1944    ((private-address-lane / 4) * wavefront-size * 4) +
1945    (wavefront-lane-id * 4) + (private-address-lane % 4)
1946
1947If the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address is dword aligned, and the start
1948of the dwords for each lane starting with lane 0 is required, then this
1949simplifies to:
1950
1951::
1952
1953  private-address-wavefront =
1954    private-address-lane * wavefront-size
1955
1956A compiler can use the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address space to read a
1957complete spilled vector register back into a complete vector register in the
1958CFI. The frame pointer can be a private lane address which is dword aligned,
1959which can be shifted to multiply by the wavefront size, and then used to form a
1960private wavefront address that gives a location for a contiguous set of dwords,
1961one per lane, where the vector register dwords are spilled. The compiler knows
1962the wavefront size since it generates the code. Note that the type of the
1963address may have to be converted as the size of a
1964``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address may be smaller than the size of a
1965``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address.

1967.. _amdgpu-dwarf-lane-identifier:
1968
1969Lane identifier
1970---------------
1971
1972DWARF lane identifies specify a target architecture lane position for hardware
1973that executes in a SIMD or SIMT manner, and on which a source language maps its
1974threads of execution onto those lanes. The DWARF lane identifier is pushed by
1975the ``DW_OP_LLVM_push_lane`` DWARF expression operation. See DWARF Version 5
1976section 2.5 which is updated by *DWARF Extensions For Heterogeneous Debugging*
1977section :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`.
1978
1979For AMDGPU, the lane identifier corresponds to the hardware lane ID of a
1980wavefront. It is numbered from 0 to the wavefront size minus 1.
1981
1982Operation Expressions
1983---------------------
1984
1985DWARF expressions are used to compute program values and the locations of
1986program objects. See DWARF Version 5 section 2.5 and
1987:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`.
1988
1989DWARF location descriptions describe how to access storage which includes memory
1990and registers. When accessing storage on AMDGPU, bytes are ordered with least
1991significant bytes first, and bits are ordered within bytes with least
1992significant bits first.
1993
1994For AMDGPU CFI expressions, ``DW_OP_LLVM_select_bit_piece`` is used to describe
1995unwinding vector registers that are spilled under the execution mask to memory:
1996the zero-single location description is the vector register, and the one-single
1997location description is the spilled memory location description. The
1998``DW_OP_LLVM_form_aspace_address`` is used to specify the address space of the
1999memory location description.
2000
2001In AMDGPU expressions, ``DW_OP_LLVM_select_bit_piece`` is used by the
2002``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute expression where divergent control flow is
2003controlled by the execution mask. An undefined location description together
2004with ``DW_OP_LLVM_extend`` is used to indicate the lane was not active on entry
2005to the subprogram. See :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-dw-at-llvm-lane-pc` for an example.
2006
2007Debugger Information Entry Attributes
2008-------------------------------------
2009
2010This section describes how certain debugger information entry attributes are
2011used by AMDGPU. See the sections in DWARF Version 5 section 2 which are updated
2012by *DWARF Extensions For Heterogeneous Debugging* section
2013:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-debugging-information-entry-attributes`.
2014
2015.. _amdgpu-dwarf-dw-at-llvm-lane-pc:
2016
2017``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc``
2018~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2019
2020For AMDGPU, the ``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute is used to specify the program
2021location of the separate lanes of a SIMT thread.
2022
2023If the lane is an active lane then this will be the same as the current program
2024location.
2025
2026If the lane is inactive, but was active on entry to the subprogram, then this is
2027the program location in the subprogram at which execution of the lane is
2028conceptual positioned.
2029
2030If the lane was not active on entry to the subprogram, then this will be the
2031undefined location. A client debugger can check if the lane is part of a valid
2032work-group by checking that the lane is in the range of the associated
2033work-group within the grid, accounting for partial work-groups. If it is not,
2034then the debugger can omit any information for the lane. Otherwise, the debugger
2035may repeatedly unwind the stack and inspect the ``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` of the
2036calling subprogram until it finds a non-undefined location. Conceptually the
2037lane only has the call frames that it has a non-undefined
2038``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc``.
2039
2040The following example illustrates how the AMDGPU backend can generate a DWARF
2041location list expression for the nested ``IF/THEN/ELSE`` structures of the
2042following subprogram pseudo code for a target with 64 lanes per wavefront.
2043
2044.. code::
2045  :number-lines:
2046
2047  SUBPROGRAM X
2048  BEGIN
2049    a;
2050    IF (c1) THEN
2051      b;
2052      IF (c2) THEN
2053        c;
2054      ELSE
2055        d;
2056      ENDIF
2057      e;
2058    ELSE
2059      f;
2060    ENDIF
2061    g;
2062  END
2063
2064The AMDGPU backend may generate the following pseudo LLVM MIR to manipulate the
2065execution mask (``EXEC``) to linearize the control flow. The condition is
2066evaluated to make a mask of the lanes for which the condition evaluates to true.
2067First the ``THEN`` region is executed by setting the ``EXEC`` mask to the
2068logical ``AND`` of the current ``EXEC`` mask with the condition mask. Then the
2069``ELSE`` region is executed by negating the ``EXEC`` mask and logical ``AND`` of
2070the saved ``EXEC`` mask at the start of the region. After the ``IF/THEN/ELSE``
2071region the ``EXEC`` mask is restored to the value it had at the beginning of the
2072region. This is shown below. Other approaches are possible, but the basic
2073concept is the same.

2106To create the DWARF location list expression that defines the location
2107description of a vector of lane program locations, the LLVM MIR ``DBG_VALUE``
2108pseudo instruction can be used to annotate the linearized control flow. This can
2109be done by defining an artificial variable for the lane PC. The DWARF location
2110list expression created for it is used as the value of the
2111``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute on the subprogram's debugger information entry.
2112
2113A DWARF procedure is defined for each well nested structured control flow region
2114which provides the conceptual lane program location for a lane if it is not
2115active (namely it is divergent). The DWARF operation expression for each region
2116conceptually inherits the value of the immediately enclosing region and modifies
2117it according to the semantics of the region.
2118
2119For an ``IF/THEN/ELSE`` region the divergent program location is at the start of
2120the region for the ``THEN`` region since it is executed first. For the ``ELSE``
2121region the divergent program location is at the end of the ``IF/THEN/ELSE``
2122region since the ``THEN`` region has completed.
2123
2124The lane PC artificial variable is assigned at each region transition. It uses
2125the immediately enclosing region's DWARF procedure to compute the program
2126location for each lane assuming they are divergent, and then modifies the result
2127by inserting the current program location for each lane that the ``EXEC`` mask
2128indicates is active.
2129
2130By having separate DWARF procedures for each region, they can be reused to
2131define the value for any nested region. This reduces the total size of the DWARF
2132operation expressions.
2133

2265
2266The DWARF procedure ``%__active_lane_pc`` is used to update the lane pc elements
2267that are active, with the current program location.
2268
2269Artificial variables %__lex_1_save_exec and %__lex_1_1_save_exec are created for
2270the execution masks saved on entry to a region. Using the ``DBG_VALUE`` pseudo
2271instruction, location list entries will be created that describe where the
2272artificial variables are allocated at any given program location. The compiler
2273may allocate them to registers or spill them to memory.
2274
2275The DWARF procedures for each region use the values of the saved execution mask
2276artificial variables to only update the lanes that are active on entry to the
2277region. All other lanes retain the value of the enclosing region where they were
2278last active. If they were not active on entry to the subprogram, then will have
2279the undefined location description.
2280
2281Other structured control flow regions can be handled similarly. For example,
2282loops would set the divergent program location for the region at the end of the
2283loop. Any lanes active will be in the loop, and any lanes not active must have
2284exited the loop.
2285
2286An ``IF/THEN/ELSEIF/ELSEIF/...`` region can be treated as a nest of
2287``IF/THEN/ELSE`` regions.
2288
2289The DWARF procedures can use the active lane artificial variable described in
2290:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-amdgpu-dw-at-llvm-active-lane` rather than the actual
2291``EXEC`` mask in order to support whole or quad wavefront mode.
2292
2293.. _amdgpu-dwarf-amdgpu-dw-at-llvm-active-lane:
2294
2295``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane``
2296~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2297
2298The ``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane`` attribute on a subprogram debugger information
2299entry is used to specify the lanes that are conceptually active for a SIMT
2300thread.
2301
2302The execution mask may be modified to implement whole or quad wavefront mode
2303operations. For example, all lanes may need to temporarily be made active to
2304execute a whole wavefront operation. Such regions would save the ``EXEC`` mask,
2305update it to enable the necessary lanes, perform the operations, and then
2306restore the ``EXEC`` mask from the saved value. While executing the whole
2307wavefront region, the conceptual execution mask is the saved value, not the
2308``EXEC`` value.
2309
2310This is handled by defining an artificial variable for the active lane mask. The
2311active lane mask artificial variable would be the actual ``EXEC`` mask for
2312normal regions, and the saved execution mask for regions where the mask is
2313temporarily updated. The location list expression created for this artificial
2314variable is used to define the value of the ``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane``
2315attribute.
2316
2317``DW_AT_LLVM_augmentation``
2318~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2319
2320For AMDGPU, the ``DW_AT_LLVM_augmentation`` attribute of a compilation unit
2321debugger information entry has the following value for the augmentation string:
2322
2323::
2324
2325  [amdgpu:v0.0]
2326
2327The "vX.Y" specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
2328extensions used in the DWARF of the compilation unit. The version number
2329conforms to [SEMVER]_.
2330
2331Call Frame Information
2332----------------------
2333
2334DWARF Call Frame Information (CFI) describes how a consumer can virtually
2335*unwind* call frames in a running process or core dump. See DWARF Version 5
2336section 6.4 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`.
2337
2338For AMDGPU, the Common Information Entry (CIE) fields have the following values:
2339
23401.  ``augmentation`` string contains the following null-terminated UTF-8 string:
2341
2342    ::
2343
2344      [amd:v0.0]
2345
2346    The ``vX.Y`` specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
2347    extensions used in this CIE or to the FDEs that use it. The version number
2348    conforms to [SEMVER]_.
2349
23502.  ``address_size`` for the ``Global`` address space is defined in
2351    :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
2352
23533.  ``segment_selector_size`` is 0 as AMDGPU does not use a segment selector.
2354
23554.  ``code_alignment_factor`` is 4 bytes.
2356
2357    .. TODO::
2358
2359       Add to :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` table.
2360
23615.  ``data_alignment_factor`` is 4 bytes.
2362
2363    .. TODO::
2364
2365       Add to :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` table.
2366
23676.  ``return_address_register`` is ``PC_32`` for 32-bit processes and ``PC_64``
2368    for 64-bit processes defined in :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier`.
2369
23707.  ``initial_instructions`` Since a subprogram X with fewer registers can be
2371    called from subprogram Y that has more allocated, X will not change any of
2372    the extra registers as it cannot access them. Therefore, the default rule
2373    for all columns is ``same value``.
2374
2375For AMDGPU the register number follows the numbering defined in
2376:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier`.
2377
2378For AMDGPU the instructions are variable size. A consumer can subtract 1 from
2379the return address to get the address of a byte within the call site
2380instructions. See DWARF Version 5 section 6.4.4.
2381
2382Accelerated Access
2383------------------
2384
2385See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.
2386
2387Lookup By Name Section Header
2388~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2389
2390See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.1.4.1 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-lookup-by-name`.
2391
2392For AMDGPU the lookup by name section header table:
2393
2394``augmentation_string_size`` (uword)
2395
2396  Set to the length of the ``augmentation_string`` value which is always a
2397  multiple of 4.
2398
2399``augmentation_string`` (sequence of UTF-8 characters)
2400
2401  Contains the following UTF-8 string null padded to a multiple of 4 bytes:
2402
2403  ::
2404
2405    [amdgpu:v0.0]
2406
2407  The "vX.Y" specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
2408  extensions used in the DWARF of this index. The version number conforms to
2409  [SEMVER]_.
2410
2411  .. note::
2412
2413    This is different to the DWARF Version 5 definition that requires the first
2414    4 characters to be the vendor ID. But this is consistent with the other
2415    augmentation strings and does allow multiple vendor contributions. However,
2416    backwards compatibility may be more desirable.
2417
2418Lookup By Address Section Header
2419~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2420
2421See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.2.
2422
2423For AMDGPU the lookup by address section header table:
2424
2425``address_size`` (ubyte)
2426
2427  Match the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
2428  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
2429
2430``segment_selector_size`` (ubyte)
2431
2432  AMDGPU does not use a segment selector so this is 0. The entries in the
2433  ``.debug_aranges`` do not have a segment selector.
2434
2435Line Number Information
2436-----------------------
2437
2438See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-line-number-information`.
2439
2440AMDGPU does not use the ``isa`` state machine registers and always sets it to 0.
2441The instruction set must be obtained from the ELF file header ``e_flags`` field
2442in the ``EF_AMDGPU_MACH`` bit position (see :ref:`ELF Header
2443<amdgpu-elf-header>`). See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.2.
2444
2445.. TODO::
2446
2447  Should the ``isa`` state machine register be used to indicate if the code is
2448  in wavefront32 or wavefront64 mode? Or used to specify the architecture ISA?
2449
2450For AMDGPU the line number program header fields have the following values (see
2451DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.4):
2452
2453``address_size`` (ubyte)
2454  Matches the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
2455  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
2456
2457``segment_selector_size`` (ubyte)
2458  AMDGPU does not use a segment selector so this is 0.
2459
2460``minimum_instruction_length`` (ubyte)
2461  For GFX9-GFX10 this is 4.
2462
2463``maximum_operations_per_instruction`` (ubyte)
2464  For GFX9-GFX10 this is 1.
2465
2466Source text for online-compiled programs (for example, those compiled by the
2467OpenCL language runtime) may be embedded into the DWARF Version 5 line table.
2468See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.4.1 which is updated by *DWARF Extensions For
2469Heterogeneous Debugging* section :ref:`DW_LNCT_LLVM_source
2470<amdgpu-dwarf-line-number-information-dw-lnct-llvm-source>`.
2471
2472The Clang option used to control source embedding in AMDGPU is defined in
2473:ref:`amdgpu-clang-debug-options-table`.

2497
2498See DWARF Version 5 section 7.4 and
2499:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-32-bit-and-64-bit-dwarf-formats`.
2500
2501For AMDGPU:
2502
2503* For the ``amdgcn`` target architecture only the 64-bit process address space
2504  is supported.
2505
2506* The producer can generate either 32-bit or 64-bit DWARF format. LLVM generates
2507  the 32-bit DWARF format.
2508
2509Unit Headers
2510------------
2511
2512For AMDGPU the following values apply for each of the unit headers described in
2513DWARF Version 5 sections 7.5.1.1, 7.5.1.2, and 7.5.1.3:
2514
2515``address_size`` (ubyte)
2516  Matches the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
2517  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.

2520
2521Code Conventions
2522================
2523
2524This section provides code conventions used for each supported target triple OS
2525(see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
2526
2527AMDHSA
2528------
2529
2530This section provides code conventions used when the target triple OS is
2531``amdhsa`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
2532
2533.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata:
2534
2535Code Object Metadata
2536~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2537
2538The code object metadata specifies extensible metadata associated with the code
2539objects executed on HSA [HSA]_ compatible runtimes (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`). The
2540encoding and semantics of this metadata depends on the code object version; see
2541:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v2`,
2542:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v3`, and
2543:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v4`.
2544
2545Code object metadata is specified in a note record (see
2546:ref:`amdgpu-note-records`) and is required when the target triple OS is
2547``amdhsa`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`). It must contain the minimum
2548information necessary to support the HSA compatible runtime kernel queries. For
2549example, the segment sizes needed in a dispatch packet. In addition, a
2550high-level language runtime may require other information to be included. For
2551example, the AMD OpenCL runtime records kernel argument information.
2552
2553.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v2:

2558.. warning::
2559  Code object V2 is not the default code object version emitted by this version

2562Code object V2 metadata is specified by the ``NT_AMD_HSA_METADATA`` note record
2563(see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2`).
2564
2565The metadata is specified as a YAML formatted string (see [YAML]_ and
2566:doc:`YamlIO`).
2567
2568.. TODO::
2569
2570  Is the string null terminated? It probably should not if YAML allows it to
2571  contain null characters, otherwise it should be.

2573The metadata is represented as a single YAML document comprised of the mapping
2574defined in table :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-map-v2-table` and
2575referenced tables.
2576
2577For boolean values, the string values of ``false`` and ``true`` are used for

2984Code object V3 to V4 metadata is specified by the ``NT_AMDGPU_METADATA`` note
2985record (see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3-v4`).
2986
2987The metadata is represented as Message Pack formatted binary data (see
2988[MsgPack]_). The top level is a Message Pack map that includes the
2989keys defined in table
2990:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-map-table-v3` and referenced
2991tables.
2992
2993Additional information can be added to the maps. To avoid conflicts,
2994any key names should be prefixed by "*vendor-name*." where
2995``vendor-name`` can be the name of the vendor and specific vendor
2996tool that generates the information. The prefix is abbreviated to
2997simply "." when it appears within a map that has been added by the
2998same *vendor-name*.

3450Kernel Dispatch
3451~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3452
3453The HSA architected queuing language (AQL) defines a user space memory interface
3454that can be used to control the dispatch of kernels, in an agent independent
3455way. An agent can have zero or more AQL queues created for it using an HSA
3456compatible runtime (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`), in which AQL packets (all of which
3457are 64 bytes) can be placed. See the *HSA Platform System Architecture
3458Specification* [HSA]_ for the AQL queue mechanics and packet layouts.
3459
3460The packet processor of a kernel agent is responsible for detecting and
3461dispatching HSA kernels from the AQL queues associated with it. For AMD GPUs the
3462packet processor is implemented by the hardware command processor (CP),
3463asynchronous dispatch controller (ADC) and shader processor input controller
3464(SPI).
3465
3466An HSA compatible runtime can be used to allocate an AQL queue object. It uses
3467the kernel mode driver to initialize and register the AQL queue with CP.
3468
3469To dispatch a kernel the following actions are performed. This can occur in the
3470CPU host program, or from an HSA kernel executing on a GPU.
3471
34721. A pointer to an AQL queue for the kernel agent on which the kernel is to be
3473   executed is obtained.
34742. A pointer to the kernel descriptor (see
3475   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`) of the kernel to execute is obtained.
3476   It must be for a kernel that is contained in a code object that that was
3477   loaded by an HSA compatible runtime on the kernel agent with which the AQL
3478   queue is associated.
34793. Space is allocated for the kernel arguments using the HSA compatible runtime
3480   allocator for a memory region with the kernarg property for the kernel agent
3481   that will execute the kernel. It must be at least 16-byte aligned.
34824. Kernel argument values are assigned to the kernel argument memory
3483   allocation. The layout is defined in the *HSA Programmer's Language
3484   Reference* [HSA]_. For AMDGPU the kernel execution directly accesses the
3485   kernel argument memory in the same way constant memory is accessed. (Note
3486   that the HSA specification allows an implementation to copy the kernel
3487   argument contents to another location that is accessed by the kernel.)
34885. An AQL kernel dispatch packet is created on the AQL queue. The HSA compatible
3489   runtime api uses 64-bit atomic operations to reserve space in the AQL queue
3490   for the packet. The packet must be set up, and the final write must use an
3491   atomic store release to set the packet kind to ensure the packet contents are
3492   visible to the kernel agent. AQL defines a doorbell signal mechanism to
3493   notify the kernel agent that the AQL queue has been updated. These rules, and
3494   the layout of the AQL queue and kernel dispatch packet is defined in the *HSA
3495   System Architecture Specification* [HSA]_.
34966. A kernel dispatch packet includes information about the actual dispatch,
3497   such as grid and work-group size, together with information from the code
3498   object about the kernel, such as segment sizes. The HSA compatible runtime
3499   queries on the kernel symbol can be used to obtain the code object values
3500   which are recorded in the :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata`.
35017. CP executes micro-code and is responsible for detecting and setting up the
3502   GPU to execute the wavefronts of a kernel dispatch.
35038. CP ensures that when the a wavefront starts executing the kernel machine
3504   code, the scalar general purpose registers (SGPR) and vector general purpose
3505   registers (VGPR) are set up as required by the machine code. The required
3506   setup is defined in the :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`. The initial
3507   register state is defined in
3508   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`.
35099. The prolog of the kernel machine code (see
3510   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog`) sets up the machine state as necessary
3511   before continuing executing the machine code that corresponds to the kernel.
351210. When the kernel dispatch has completed execution, CP signals the completion
3513    signal specified in the kernel dispatch packet if not 0.

3537     ================= =========== ======== ======= ==================
3538
3539The global and constant memory spaces both use global virtual addresses, which
3540are the same virtual address space used by the CPU. However, some virtual
3541addresses may only be accessible to the CPU, some only accessible by the GPU,
3542and some by both.
3543
3544Using the constant memory space indicates that the data will not change during
3545the execution of the kernel. This allows scalar read instructions to be
3546used. The vector and scalar L1 caches are invalidated of volatile data before
3547each kernel dispatch execution to allow constant memory to change values between
3548kernel dispatches.
3549
3550The local memory space uses the hardware Local Data Store (LDS) which is
3551automatically allocated when the hardware creates work-groups of wavefronts, and
3552freed when all the wavefronts of a work-group have terminated. The data store
3553(DS) instructions can be used to access it.
3554
3555The private memory space uses the hardware scratch memory support. If the kernel
3556uses scratch, then the hardware allocates memory that is accessed using
3557wavefront lane dword (4 byte) interleaving. The mapping used from private
3558address to physical address is:
3559
3560  ``wavefront-scratch-base +
3561  (private-address * wavefront-size * 4) +
3562  (wavefront-lane-id * 4)``
3563
3564There are different ways that the wavefront scratch base address is determined
3565by a wavefront (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). This
3566memory can be accessed in an interleaved manner using buffer instruction with
3567the scratch buffer descriptor and per wavefront scratch offset, by the scratch
3568instructions, or by flat instructions. If each lane of a wavefront accesses the
3569same private address, the interleaving results in adjacent dwords being accessed
3570and hence requires fewer cache lines to be fetched. Multi-dword access is not
3571supported except by flat and scratch instructions in GFX9-GFX10.
3572
3573The generic address space uses the hardware flat address support available in
3574GFX7-GFX10. This uses two fixed ranges of virtual addresses (the private and
3575local apertures), that are outside the range of addressible global memory, to
3576map from a flat address to a private or local address.
3577
3578FLAT instructions can take a flat address and access global, private (scratch)
3579and group (LDS) memory depending in if the address is within one of the
3580aperture ranges. Flat access to scratch requires hardware aperture setup and
3581setup in the kernel prologue (see
3582:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`). Flat access to LDS requires
3583hardware aperture setup and M0 (GFX7-GFX8) register setup (see
3584:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`).
3585
3586To convert between a segment address and a flat address the base address of the
3587apertures address can be used. For GFX7-GFX8 these are available in the
3588:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-hsa-aql-queue` the address of which can be obtained with
3589Queue Ptr SGPR (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). For
3590GFX9-GFX10 the aperture base addresses are directly available as inline constant
3591registers ``SRC_SHARED_BASE/LIMIT`` and ``SRC_PRIVATE_BASE/LIMIT``. In 64 bit
3592address mode the aperture sizes are 2^32 bytes and the base is aligned to 2^32
3593which makes it easier to convert from flat to segment or segment to flat.
3594
3595Image and Samplers
3596~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3597
3598Image and sample handles created by an HSA compatible runtime (see
3599:ref:`amdgpu-os`) are 64-bit addresses of a hardware 32-byte V# and 48 byte S#
3600object respectively. In order to support the HSA ``query_sampler`` operations
3601two extra dwords are used to store the HSA BRIG enumeration values for the
3602queries that are not trivially deducible from the S# representation.
3603
3604HSA Signals
3605~~~~~~~~~~~
3606
3607HSA signal handles created by an HSA compatible runtime (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`)
3608are 64-bit addresses of a structure allocated in memory accessible from both the
3609CPU and GPU. The structure is defined by the runtime and subject to change
3610between releases. For example, see [AMD-ROCm-github]_.

3619[AMD-ROCm-github]_. For some processors it contains fields needed to implement
3620certain language features such as the flat address aperture bases. It also

4331Initial Kernel Execution State
4332~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4333
4334This section defines the register state that will be set up by the packet
4335processor prior to the start of execution of every wavefront. This is limited by
4336the constraints of the hardware controllers of CP/ADC/SPI.
4337
4338The order of the SGPR registers is defined, but the compiler can specify which
4339ones are actually setup in the kernel descriptor using the ``enable_sgpr_*`` bit
4340fields (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`). The register numbers used
4341for enabled registers are dense starting at SGPR0: the first enabled register is
4342SGPR0, the next enabled register is SGPR1 etc.; disabled registers do not have
4343an SGPR number.
4344
4345The initial SGPRs comprise up to 16 User SRGPs that are set by CP and apply to
4346all wavefronts of the grid. It is possible to specify more than 16 User SGPRs
4347using the ``enable_sgpr_*`` bit fields, in which case only the first 16 are
4348actually initialized. These are then immediately followed by the System SGPRs
4349that are set up by ADC/SPI and can have different values for each wavefront of
4350the grid dispatch.
4351
4352SGPR register initial state is defined in
4353:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-sgpr-register-set-up-order-table`.

4428fields (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`). The register numbers used
4429for enabled registers are dense starting at VGPR0: the first enabled register is
4430VGPR0, the next enabled register is VGPR1 etc.; disabled registers do not have a
4431VGPR number.
4432
4433There are different methods used for the VGPR initial state:
4434
4435* Unless the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4436  specifies otherwise, a separate VGPR register is used per work-item ID. The
4437  VGPR register initial state for this method is defined in
4438  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-vgpr-register-set-up-order-for-unpacked-work-item-id-method-table`.
4439* If *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4440  specifies *Packed work-item IDs*, the initial value of VGPR0 register is used
4441  for all work-item IDs. The register layout for this method is defined in
4442  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-register-layout-for-packed-work-item-id-method-table`.

4491
4492The setting of registers is done by GPU CP/ADC/SPI hardware as follows:
4493
44941. SGPRs before the Work-Group Ids are set by CP using the 16 User Data
4495   registers.
44962. Work-group Id registers X, Y, Z are set by ADC which supports any
4497   combination including none.
44983. Scratch Wavefront Offset is set by SPI in a per wavefront basis which is why
4499   its value cannot be included with the flat scratch init value which is per
4500   queue (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`).
45014. The VGPRs are set by SPI which only supports specifying either (X), (X, Y)
4502   or (X, Y, Z).
45035. Flat Scratch register pair initialization is described in
4504   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`.
4505
4506The global segment can be accessed either using buffer instructions (GFX6 which
4507has V# 64-bit address support), flat instructions (GFX7-GFX10), or global
4508instructions (GFX9-GFX10).
4509
4510If buffer operations are used, then the compiler can generate a V# with the
4511following properties:
4512
4513* base address of 0
4514* no swizzle
4515* ATC: 1 if IOMMU present (such as APU)
4516* ptr64: 1
4517* MTYPE set to support memory coherence that matches the runtime (such as CC for
4518  APU and NC for dGPU).

4522Kernel Prolog
4523~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4524
4525The compiler performs initialization in the kernel prologue depending on the
4526target and information about things like stack usage in the kernel and called
4527functions. Some of this initialization requires the compiler to request certain
4528User and System SGPRs be present in the
4529:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state` via the
4530:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`.

4538
45392.  The CFI CFA is defined using an expression which evaluates to a location
4540    description that comprises one memory location description for the
4541    ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address space address ``0``.

4549  The M0 register must be initialized with a value at least the total LDS size
4550  if the kernel may access LDS via DS or flat operations. Total LDS size is
4551  available in dispatch packet. For M0, it is also possible to use maximum
4552  possible value of LDS for given target (0x7FFF for GFX6 and 0xFFFF for
4553  GFX7-GFX8).
4554GFX9-GFX10

4560Stack Pointer

4562
4563If the kernel has function calls it must set up the ABI stack pointer described
4564in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-function-call-convention-non-kernel-functions` by setting
4565SGPR32 to the unswizzled scratch offset of the address past the last local

4574``SIFrameLowering`` then SGPR33 is used and is always set to ``0`` in the
4575kernel prolog. If a frame pointer is not required then all uses of the frame
4576pointer are replaced with immediate ``0`` offsets.
4577
4578.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch:
4579
4580Flat Scratch
4581++++++++++++
4582
4583There are different methods used for initializing flat scratch:
4584
4585* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4586  specifies *Does not support generic address space*:
4587
4588  Flat scratch is not supported and there is no flat scratch register pair.
4589
4590* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4591  specifies *Offset flat scratch*:
4592
4593  If the kernel or any function it calls may use flat operations to access
4594  scratch memory, the prolog code must set up the FLAT_SCRATCH register pair
4595  (FLAT_SCRATCH_LO/FLAT_SCRATCH_HI). Initialization uses Flat Scratch Init and
4596  Scratch Wavefront Offset SGPR registers (see
4597  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`):
4598
4599  1. The low word of Flat Scratch Init is the 32-bit byte offset from
4600     ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` to the base of scratch backing memory
4601     being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel dispatch. This is
4602     the same value used in the Scratch Segment Buffer V# base address.
4603
4604     CP obtains this from the runtime. (The Scratch Segment Buffer base address
4605     is ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` plus this offset.)
4606
4607     The prolog must add the value of Scratch Wavefront Offset to get the
4608     wavefront's byte scratch backing memory offset from
4609     ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID``.
4610
4611     The Scratch Wavefront Offset must also be used as an offset with Private
4612     segment address when using the Scratch Segment Buffer.
4613
4614     Since FLAT_SCRATCH_LO is in units of 256 bytes, the offset must be right
4615     shifted by 8 before moving into FLAT_SCRATCH_HI.
4616
4617     FLAT_SCRATCH_HI corresponds to SGPRn-4 on GFX7, and SGPRn-6 on GFX8 (where
4618     SGPRn is the highest numbered SGPR allocated to the wavefront).
4619     FLAT_SCRATCH_HI is multiplied by 256 (as it is in units of 256 bytes) and
4620     added to ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` to calculate the per wavefront
4621     FLAT SCRATCH BASE in flat memory instructions that access the scratch
4622     aperture.
4623  2. The second word of Flat Scratch Init is 32-bit byte size of a single
4624     work-items scratch memory usage.
4625
4626     CP obtains this from the runtime, and it is always a multiple of DWORD. CP
4627     checks that the value in the kernel dispatch packet Private Segment Byte
4628     Size is not larger and requests the runtime to increase the queue's scratch
4629     size if necessary.
4630
4631     CP directly loads from the kernel dispatch packet Private Segment Byte Size
4632     field and rounds up to a multiple of DWORD. Having CP load it once avoids
4633     loading it at the beginning of every wavefront.
4634
4635     The kernel prolog code must move it to FLAT_SCRATCH_LO which is SGPRn-3 on
4636     GFX7 and SGPRn-5 on GFX8. FLAT_SCRATCH_LO is used as the FLAT SCRATCH SIZE
4637     in flat memory instructions.
4638
4639* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4640  specifies *Absolute flat scratch*:
4641
4642  If the kernel or any function it calls may use flat operations to access
4643  scratch memory, the prolog code must set up the FLAT_SCRATCH register pair
4644  (FLAT_SCRATCH_LO/FLAT_SCRATCH_HI which are in SGPRn-4/SGPRn-3). Initialization
4645  uses Flat Scratch Init and Scratch Wavefront Offset SGPR registers (see
4646  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`):
4647
4648  The Flat Scratch Init is the 64-bit address of the base of scratch backing
4649  memory being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel dispatch.
4650
4651  CP obtains this from the runtime.
4652
4653  The kernel prolog must add the value of the wave's Scratch Wavefront Offset
4654  and move the result as a 64-bit value to the FLAT_SCRATCH SGPR register pair
4655  which is SGPRn-6 and SGPRn-5. It is used as the FLAT SCRATCH BASE in flat
4656  memory instructions.
4657
4658  The Scratch Wavefront Offset must also be used as an offset with Private
4659  segment address when using the Scratch Segment Buffer (see
4660  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer`).
4661
4662* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4663  specifies *Architected flat scratch*:
4664
4665  If ENABLE_PRIVATE_SEGMENT is enabled in
4666  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-compute_pgm_rsrc2-gfx6-gfx10-table` then the FLAT_SCRATCH
4667  register pair will be initialized to the 64-bit address of the base of scratch
4668  backing memory being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel
4669  dispatch plus the value of the wave's Scratch Wavefront Offset for use as the
4670  flat scratch base in flat memory instructions.
4671
4672.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer:
4673
4674Private Segment Buffer
4675++++++++++++++++++++++
4676
4677If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` specifies
4678*Architected flat scratch* then a Private Segment Buffer is not supported.
4679Instead the flat SCRATCH instructions are used.
4680
4681Otherwise, Private Segment Buffer SGPR register is used to initialize 4 SGPRs
4682that are used as a V# to access scratch. CP uses the value provided by the
4683runtime. It is used, together with Scratch Wavefront Offset as an offset, to
4684access the private memory space using a segment address. See
4685:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`.
4686
4687The scratch V# is a four-aligned SGPR and always selected for the kernel as
4688follows:
4689
4690  - If it is known during instruction selection that there is stack usage,
4691    SGPR0-3 is reserved for use as the scratch V#.  Stack usage is assumed if
4692    optimizations are disabled (``-O0``), if stack objects already exist (for
4693    locals, etc.), or if there are any function calls.
4694
4695  - Otherwise, four high numbered SGPRs beginning at a four-aligned SGPR index
4696    are reserved for the tentative scratch V#. These will be used if it is
4697    determined that spilling is needed.
4698
4699    - If no use is made of the tentative scratch V#, then it is unreserved,
4700      and the register count is determined ignoring it.
4701    - If use is made of the tentative scratch V#, then its register numbers
4702      are shifted to the first four-aligned SGPR index after the highest one
4703      allocated by the register allocator, and all uses are updated. The
4704      register count includes them in the shifted location.
4705    - In either case, if the processor has the SGPR allocation bug, the
4706      tentative allocation is not shifted or unreserved in order to ensure
4707      the register count is higher to workaround the bug.
4708
4709    .. note::
4710
4711      This approach of using a tentative scratch V# and shifting the register
4712      numbers if used avoids having to perform register allocation a second
4713      time if the tentative V# is eliminated. This is more efficient and
4714      avoids the problem that the second register allocation may perform
4715      spilling which will fail as there is no longer a scratch V#.
4716
4717When the kernel prolog code is being emitted it is known whether the scratch V#
4718described above is actually used. If it is, the prolog code must set it up by
4719copying the Private Segment Buffer to the scratch V# registers and then adding
4720the Private Segment Wavefront Offset to the queue base address in the V#. The
4721result is a V# with a base address pointing to the beginning of the wavefront
4722scratch backing memory.
4723
4724The Private Segment Buffer is always requested, but the Private Segment
4725Wavefront Offset is only requested if it is used (see
4726:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`).
4727
4728.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model:
4729
4730Memory Model
4731~~~~~~~~~~~~
4732
4733This section describes the mapping of the LLVM memory model onto AMDGPU machine
4734code (see :ref:`memmodel`).
4735
4736The AMDGPU backend supports the memory synchronization scopes specified in
4737:ref:`amdgpu-memory-scopes`.
4738
4739The code sequences used to implement the memory model specify the order of
4740instructions that a single thread must execute. The ``s_waitcnt`` and cache
4741management instructions such as ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` are defined with respect
4742to other memory instructions executed by the same thread. This allows them to be
4743moved earlier or later which can allow them to be combined with other instances
4744of the same instruction, or hoisted/sunk out of loops to improve performance.
4745Only the instructions related to the memory model are given; additional
4746``s_waitcnt`` instructions are required to ensure registers are defined before
4747being used. These may be able to be combined with the memory model ``s_waitcnt``
4748instructions as described above.
4749
4750The AMDGPU backend supports the following memory models:
4751
4752  HSA Memory Model [HSA]_
4753    The HSA memory model uses a single happens-before relation for all address
4754    spaces (see :ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`).
4755  OpenCL Memory Model [OpenCL]_
4756    The OpenCL memory model which has separate happens-before relations for the
4757    global and local address spaces. Only a fence specifying both global and
4758    local address space, and seq_cst instructions join the relationships. Since
4759    the LLVM ``memfence`` instruction does not allow an address space to be
4760    specified the OpenCL fence has to conservatively assume both local and
4761    global address space was specified. However, optimizations can often be
4762    done to eliminate the additional ``s_waitcnt`` instructions when there are
4763    no intervening memory instructions which access the corresponding address
4764    space. The code sequences in the table indicate what can be omitted for the
4765    OpenCL memory. The target triple environment is used to determine if the
4766    source language is OpenCL (see :ref:`amdgpu-opencl`).
4767
4768``ds/flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions to local memory are termed LDS
4769operations.
4770
4771``buffer/global/flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions to global memory are
4772termed vector memory operations.
4773
4774Private address space uses ``buffer_load/store`` using the scratch V#
4775(GFX6-GFX8), or ``scratch_load/store`` (GFX9-GFX10). Since only a single thread
4776is accessing the memory, atomic memory orderings are not meaningful, and all
4777accesses are treated as non-atomic.
4778
4779Constant address space uses ``buffer/global_load`` instructions (or equivalent
4780scalar memory instructions). Since the constant address space contents do not
4781change during the execution of a kernel dispatch it is not legal to perform
4782stores, and atomic memory orderings are not meaningful, and all accesses are
4783treated as non-atomic.
4784
4785A memory synchronization scope wider than work-group is not meaningful for the
4786group (LDS) address space and is treated as work-group.
4787
4788The memory model does not support the region address space which is treated as
4789non-atomic.
4790
4791Acquire memory ordering is not meaningful on store atomic instructions and is
4792treated as non-atomic.
4793
4794Release memory ordering is not meaningful on load atomic instructions and is
4795treated a non-atomic.
4796
4797Acquire-release memory ordering is not meaningful on load or store atomic
4798instructions and is treated as acquire and release respectively.
4799
4800The memory order also adds the single thread optimization constraints defined in
4801table
4802:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model-single-thread-optimization-constraints-table`.

4845Memory Model GFX6-GFX9
4846++++++++++++++++++++++
4847
4848For GFX6-GFX9:
4849
4850* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
4851* Each SA has multiple compute units (CU).
4852* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
4853* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same CU but may be
4854  executed by different SIMDs.
4855* Each CU has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
4856  executing on it.
4857* All LDS operations of a CU are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
4858  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
4859  execution order.
4860* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
4861  CU. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
4862  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
4863  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
4864  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
4865  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
4866  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
4867  operations performed by the same wavefront.
4868* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations and
4869  completion is reported to a wavefront in execution order. The exception is
4870  that for GFX7-GFX9 ``flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions can report out of
4871  vector memory order if they access LDS memory, and out of LDS operation order
4872  if they access global memory.
4873* The vector memory operations access a single vector L1 cache shared by all
4874  SIMDs a CU. Therefore, no special action is required for coherence between the
4875  lanes of a single wavefront, or for coherence between wavefronts in the same
4876  work-group. A ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required for coherence between
4877  wavefronts executing in different work-groups as they may be executing on
4878  different CUs.
4879* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L1 cache shared by all wavefronts
4880  on a group of CUs. The scalar and vector L1 caches are not coherent. However,
4881  scalar operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory
4882  model. See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
4883* The vector and scalar memory operations use an L2 cache shared by all CUs on
4884  the same agent.
4885* The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
4886  addresses.
4887* Each CU has a separate request queue per channel. Therefore, the vector and
4888  scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
4889  work-groups (which may be executing on different CUs) of an agent can be
4890  reordered relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0)`` is required to
4891  ensure synchronization between vector memory operations of different CUs. It
4892  ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
4893  subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
4894  requirements of acquire and release.
4895* The L2 cache can be kept coherent with other agents on some targets, or ranges
4896  of virtual addresses can be set up to bypass it to ensure system coherence.
4897
4898Scalar memory operations are only used to access memory that is proven to not
4899change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes constant
4900address space and global address space for program scope ``const`` variables.
4901Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the scalar cache to
4902ensure it is coherent with the vector caches. The scalar and vector caches are
4903invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since constant address space data
4904may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
4905:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
4906
4907The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
4908case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
4909accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
4910then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
4911return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
4912future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
4913creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
4914``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
4915
4916For kernarg backing memory:
4917
4918* CP invalidates the L1 cache at the start of each kernel dispatch.
4919* On dGPU the kernarg backing memory is allocated in host memory accessed as
4920  MTYPE UC (uncached) to avoid needing to invalidate the L2 cache. This also
4921  causes it to be treated as non-volatile and so is not invalidated by
4922  ``*_vol``.
4923* On APU the kernarg backing memory it is accessed as MTYPE CC (cache coherent)
4924  and so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other agents.
4925
4926Scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space) is accessed
4927with MTYPE NC_NV (non-coherent non-volatile). Since the private address space is
4928only accessed by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is
4929never a need to invalidate these entries from the L1 cache. Hence all cache
4930invalidates are done as ``*_vol`` to only invalidate the volatile cache lines.

6106Memory Model GFX90A
6107+++++++++++++++++++
6108
6109For GFX90A:
6110
6111* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
6112* Each SA has multiple compute units (CU).
6113* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
6114* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same CU but may be
6115  executed by different SIMDs. The exception is when in tgsplit execution mode
6116  when the wavefronts may be executed by different SIMDs in different CUs.
6117* Each CU has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
6118  executing on it. The exception is when in tgsplit execution mode when no LDS
6119  is allocated as wavefronts of the same work-group can be in different CUs.
6120* All LDS operations of a CU are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
6121  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
6122  execution order.
6123* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
6124  CU. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
6125  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
6126  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
6127  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
6128  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
6129  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
6130  operations performed by the same wavefront.
6131* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations and
6132  completion is reported to a wavefront in execution order. The exception is
6133  that ``flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions can report out of vector memory
6134  order if they access LDS memory, and out of LDS operation order if they access
6135  global memory.
6136* The vector memory operations access a single vector L1 cache shared by all
6137  SIMDs a CU. Therefore:
6138
6139  * No special action is required for coherence between the lanes of a single
6140    wavefront.
6141
6142  * No special action is required for coherence between wavefronts in the same
6143    work-group since they execute on the same CU. The exception is when in
6144    tgsplit execution mode as wavefronts of the same work-group can be in
6145    different CUs and so a ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required as described in
6146    the following item.
6147
6148  * A ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required for coherence between wavefronts
6149    executing in different work-groups as they may be executing on different
6150    CUs.
6151
6152* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L1 cache shared by all wavefronts
6153  on a group of CUs. The scalar and vector L1 caches are not coherent. However,
6154  scalar operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory
6155  model. See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
6156* The vector and scalar memory operations use an L2 cache shared by all CUs on
6157  the same agent.
6158
6159  * The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
6160    addresses.
6161  * Each CU has a separate request queue per channel. Therefore, the vector and
6162    scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
6163    work-groups (which may be executing on different CUs), or the same
6164    work-group if executing in tgsplit mode, of an agent can be reordered
6165    relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure
6166    synchronization between vector memory operations of different CUs. It
6167    ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
6168    subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
6169    requirements of acquire and release.
6170  * The L2 cache of one agent can be kept coherent with other agents by:
6171    using the MTYPE RW (read-write) or MTYPE CC (cache-coherent) with the PTE
6172    C-bit for memory local to the L2; and using the MTYPE NC (non-coherent) with
6173    the PTE C-bit set or MTYPE UC (uncached) for memory not local to the L2.
6174
6175    * Any local memory cache lines will be automatically invalidated by writes
6176      from CUs associated with other L2 caches, or writes from the CPU, due to
6177      the cache probe caused by coherent requests. Coherent requests are caused
6178      by GPU accesses to pages with the PTE C-bit set, by CPU accesses over
6179      XGMI, and by PCIe requests that are configured to be coherent requests.
6180    * XGMI accesses from the CPU to local memory may be cached on the CPU.
6181      Subsequent access from the GPU will automatically invalidate or writeback
6182      the CPU cache due to the L2 probe filter and and the PTE C-bit being set.
6183    * Since all work-groups on the same agent share the same L2, no L2
6184      invalidation or writeback is required for coherence.
6185    * To ensure coherence of local and remote memory writes of work-groups in
6186      different agents a ``buffer_wbl2`` is required. It will writeback dirty L2
6187      cache lines of MTYPE RW (used for local coarse grain memory) and MTYPE NC
6188      ()used for remote coarse grain memory). Note that MTYPE CC (used for local
6189      fine grain memory) causes write through to DRAM, and MTYPE UC (used for
6190      remote fine grain memory) bypasses the L2, so both will never result in
6191      dirty L2 cache lines.
6192    * To ensure coherence of local and remote memory reads of work-groups in
6193      different agents a ``buffer_invl2`` is required. It will invalidate L2
6194      cache lines with MTYPE NC (used for remote coarse grain memory). Note that
6195      MTYPE CC (used for local fine grain memory) and MTYPE RW (used for local
6196      coarse memory) cause local reads to be invalidated by remote writes with
6197      with the PTE C-bit so these cache lines are not invalidated. Note that
6198      MTYPE UC (used for remote fine grain memory) bypasses the L2, so will
6199      never result in L2 cache lines that need to be invalidated.
6200
6201  * PCIe access from the GPU to the CPU memory is kept coherent by using the
6202    MTYPE UC (uncached) which bypasses the L2.
6203
6204Scalar memory operations are only used to access memory that is proven to not
6205change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes constant
6206address space and global address space for program scope ``const`` variables.
6207Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the scalar cache to
6208ensure it is coherent with the vector caches. The scalar and vector caches are
6209invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since constant address space data
6210may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
6211:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
6212
6213The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
6214case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
6215accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
6216then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
6217return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
6218future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
6219creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
6220``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
6221
6222For kernarg backing memory:
6223
6224* CP invalidates the L1 cache at the start of each kernel dispatch.
6225* On dGPU over XGMI or PCIe the kernarg backing memory is allocated in host
6226  memory accessed as MTYPE UC (uncached) to avoid needing to invalidate the L2
6227  cache. This also causes it to be treated as non-volatile and so is not
6228  invalidated by ``*_vol``.
6229* On APU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as MTYPE CC (cache coherent) and
6230  so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other agents.
6231
6232Scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space) is accessed
6233with MTYPE NC_NV (non-coherent non-volatile). Since the private address space is
6234only accessed by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is
6235never a need to invalidate these entries from the L1 cache. Hence all cache
6236invalidates are done as ``*_vol`` to only invalidate the volatile cache lines.

8497For GFX10:
8498
8499* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
8500* Each SA has multiple work-group processors (WGP).
8501* Each WGP has multiple compute units (CU).
8502* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
8503* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same
8504  WGP. In CU wavefront execution mode the wavefronts may be executed by
8505  different SIMDs in the same CU. In WGP wavefront execution mode the
8506  wavefronts may be executed by different SIMDs in different CUs in the same
8507  WGP.
8508* Each WGP has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
8509  executing on it.
8510* All LDS operations of a WGP are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
8511  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
8512  execution order.
8513* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
8514  WGP. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
8515  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
8516  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
8517  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
8518  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
8519  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
8520  operations performed by the same wavefront.
8521* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations.
8522  Completion of load/store/sample operations are reported to a wavefront in
8523  execution order of other load/store/sample operations performed by that
8524  wavefront.
8525* The vector memory operations access a vector L0 cache. There is a single L0
8526  cache per CU. Each SIMD of a CU accesses the same L0 cache. Therefore, no
8527  special action is required for coherence between the lanes of a single
8528  wavefront. However, a ``buffer_gl0_inv`` is required for coherence between
8529  wavefronts executing in the same work-group as they may be executing on SIMDs
8530  of different CUs that access different L0s. A ``buffer_gl0_inv`` is also
8531  required for coherence between wavefronts executing in different work-groups
8532  as they may be executing on different WGPs.
8533* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L0 cache shared by all wavefronts
8534  on a WGP. The scalar and vector L0 caches are not coherent. However, scalar
8535  operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory model. See
8536  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
8537* The vector and scalar memory L0 caches use an L1 cache shared by all WGPs on
8538  the same SA. Therefore, no special action is required for coherence between
8539  the wavefronts of a single work-group. However, a ``buffer_gl1_inv`` is
8540  required for coherence between wavefronts executing in different work-groups
8541  as they may be executing on different SAs that access different L1s.
8542* The L1 caches have independent quadrants to service disjoint ranges of virtual
8543  addresses.
8544* Each L0 cache has a separate request queue per L1 quadrant. Therefore, the
8545  vector and scalar memory operations performed by different wavefronts, whether
8546  executing in the same or different work-groups (which may be executing on
8547  different CUs accessing different L0s), can be reordered relative to each
8548  other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0) & vscnt(0)`` is required to ensure
8549  synchronization between vector memory operations of different wavefronts. It
8550  ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
8551  subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
8552  requirements of acquire, release and sequential consistency.
8553* The L1 caches use an L2 cache shared by all SAs on the same agent.
8554* The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
8555  addresses.
8556* Each L1 quadrant of a single SA accesses a different L2 channel. Each L1
8557  quadrant has a separate request queue per L2 channel. Therefore, the vector
8558  and scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
8559  work-groups (which may be executing on different SAs) of an agent can be
8560  reordered relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0) & vscnt(0)`` is
8561  required to ensure synchronization between vector memory operations of
8562  different SAs. It ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed
8563  before executing a subsequent vector memory and so can be used to meet the
8564  requirements of acquire, release and sequential consistency.
8565* The L2 cache can be kept coherent with other agents on some targets, or ranges
8566  of virtual addresses can be set up to bypass it to ensure system coherence.
8567
8568Scalar memory operations are only used to access memory that is proven to not
8569change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes constant
8570address space and global address space for program scope ``const`` variables.
8571Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the scalar cache to
8572ensure it is coherent with the vector caches. The scalar and vector caches are
8573invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since constant address space data
8574may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
8575:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
8576
8577The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
8578case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
8579accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
8580then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
8581return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
8582future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
8583creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
8584``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
8585
8586For kernarg backing memory:
8587
8588* CP invalidates the L0 and L1 caches at the start of each kernel dispatch.
8589* On dGPU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as MTYPE UC (uncached) to avoid
8590  needing to invalidate the L2 cache.
8591* On APU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as MTYPE CC (cache coherent) and
8592  so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other agents.
8593
8594Scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space) is accessed
8595with MTYPE NC (non-coherent). Since the private address space is only accessed
8596by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is never a need to
8597invalidate these entries from the L0 or L1 caches.
8598
8599Wavefronts are executed in native mode with in-order reporting of loads and
8600sample instructions. In this mode vmcnt reports completion of load, atomic with
8601return and sample instructions in order, and the vscnt reports the completion of
8602store and atomic without return in order. See ``MEM_ORDERED`` field in
8603:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-compute_pgm_rsrc1-gfx6-gfx10-table`.
8604
8605Wavefronts can be executed in WGP or CU wavefront execution mode:
8606
8607* In WGP wavefront execution mode the wavefronts of a work-group are executed
8608  on the SIMDs of both CUs of the WGP. Therefore, explicit management of the per
8609  CU L0 caches is required for work-group synchronization. Also accesses to L1
8610  at work-group scope need to be explicitly ordered as the accesses from
8611  different CUs are not ordered.
8612* In CU wavefront execution mode the wavefronts of a work-group are executed on
8613  the SIMDs of a single CU of the WGP. Therefore, all global memory access by
8614  the work-group access the same L0 which in turn ensures L1 accesses are
8615  ordered and so do not require explicit management of the caches for
8616  work-group synchronization.

10699
10700  This section is currently incomplete and has inaccuracies. It is WIP that will
10701  be updated as information is determined.
10702
10703See :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier` for information on swizzled
10704addresses. Unswizzled addresses are normal linear addresses.

10712
10713See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state` for the kernel call
10714convention.
10715
10716The following is not part of the AMDGPU kernel calling convention but describes
10717how the AMDGPU implements function calls:
10718
107191.  Clang decides the kernarg layout to match the *HSA Programmer's Language
10720    Reference* [HSA]_.
10721
10722    - All structs are passed directly.
10723    - Lambda values are passed *TBA*.
10724
10725    .. TODO::
10726
10727      - Does this really follow HSA rules? Or are structs >16 bytes passed
10728        by-value struct?
10729      - What is ABI for lambda values?
10730
107314.  The kernel performs certain setup in its prolog, as described in

10736Non-Kernel Functions
10737++++++++++++++++++++
10738
10739This section describes the call convention ABI for functions other than the
10740outer kernel function.
10741
10742If a kernel has function calls then scratch is always allocated and used for
10743the call stack which grows from low address to high address using the swizzled
10744scratch address space.
10745
10746On entry to a function:
10747
107481.  SGPR0-3 contain a V# with the following properties (see
10749    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer`):
10750
10751    * Base address pointing to the beginning of the wavefront scratch backing
10752      memory.
10753    * Swizzled with dword element size and stride of wavefront size elements.
10754
107552.  The FLAT_SCRATCH register pair is setup. See
10756    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`.
107573.  GFX6-GFX8: M0 register set to the size of LDS in bytes. See
10758    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`.
107594.  The EXEC register is set to the lanes active on entry to the function.
107605.  MODE register: *TBD*
107616.  VGPR0-31 and SGPR4-29 are used to pass function input arguments as described
10762    below.
107637.  SGPR30-31 return address (RA). The code address that the function must
10764    return to when it completes. The value is undefined if the function is *no
10765    return*.
107668.  SGPR32 is used for the stack pointer (SP). It is an unswizzled scratch
10767    offset relative to the beginning of the wavefront scratch backing memory.
10768
10769    The unswizzled SP can be used with buffer instructions as an unswizzled SGPR
10770    offset with the scratch V# in SGPR0-3 to access the stack in a swizzled
10771    manner.
10772
10773    The unswizzled SP value can be converted into the swizzled SP value by:
10774
10775      | swizzled SP = unswizzled SP / wavefront size
10776
10777    This may be used to obtain the private address space address of stack
10778    objects and to convert this address to a flat address by adding the flat
10779    scratch aperture base address.
10780
10781    The swizzled SP value is always 4 bytes aligned for the ``r600``
10782    architecture and 16 byte aligned for the ``amdgcn`` architecture.
10783
10784    .. note::
10785
10786      The ``amdgcn`` value is selected to avoid dynamic stack alignment for the
10787      OpenCL language which has the largest base type defined as 16 bytes.
10788
10789    On entry, the swizzled SP value is the address of the first function
10790    argument passed on the stack. Other stack passed arguments are positive
10791    offsets from the entry swizzled SP value.
10792
10793    The function may use positive offsets beyond the last stack passed argument
10794    for stack allocated local variables and register spill slots. If necessary,

10796    the function may dynamically allocate space for such things as runtime sized
10797    ``alloca`` local allocations.
10798
10799    If the function calls another function, it will place any stack allocated
10800    arguments after the last local allocation and adjust SGPR32 to the address

10853
10854  - How are function results returned? The address of structured types is passed
10855    by reference, but what about other types?
10856
10857The function input arguments are made up of the formal arguments explicitly
10858declared by the source language function plus the implicit input arguments used
10859by the implementation.
10860
10861The source language input arguments are:
10862
108631. Any source language implicit ``this`` or ``self`` argument comes first as a
10864   pointer type.
108652. Followed by the function formal arguments in left to right source order.
10866
10867The source language result arguments are:
10868
108691. The function result argument.
10870
10871The source language input or result struct type arguments that are less than or
10872equal to 16 bytes, are decomposed recursively into their base type fields, and
10873each field is passed as if a separate argument. For input arguments, if the
10874called function requires the struct to be in memory, for example because its
10875address is taken, then the function body is responsible for allocating a stack
10876location and copying the field arguments into it. Clang terms this *direct
10877struct*.
10878
10879The source language input struct type arguments that are greater than 16 bytes,
10880are passed by reference. The caller is responsible for allocating a stack
10881location to make a copy of the struct value and pass the address as the input
10882argument. The called function is responsible to perform the dereference when
10883accessing the input argument. Clang terms this *by-value struct*.
10884
10885A source language result struct type argument that is greater than 16 bytes, is
10886returned by reference. The caller is responsible for allocating a stack location
10887to hold the result value and passes the address as the last input argument
10888(before the implicit input arguments). In this case there are no result
10889arguments. The called function is responsible to perform the dereference when
10890storing the result value. Clang terms this *structured return (sret)*.
10891
10892*TODO: correct the ``sret`` definition.*
10893
10894.. TODO::
10895
10896  Is this definition correct? Or is ``sret`` only used if passing in registers, and
10897  pass as non-decomposed struct as stack argument? Or something else? Is the
10898  memory location in the caller stack frame, or a stack memory argument and so
10899  no address is passed as the caller can directly write to the argument stack
10900  location? But then the stack location is still live after return. If an
10901  argument stack location is it the first stack argument or the last one?
10902
10903Lambda argument types are treated as struct types with an implementation defined
10904set of fields.
10905
10906.. TODO::
10907
10908  Need to specify the ABI for lambda types for AMDGPU.

10910For AMDGPU backend all source language arguments (including the decomposed
10911struct type arguments) are passed in VGPRs unless marked ``inreg`` in which case
10912they are passed in SGPRs.
10913
10914The AMDGPU backend walks the function call graph from the leaves to determine
10915which implicit input arguments are used, propagating to each caller of the
10916function. The used implicit arguments are appended to the function arguments
10917after the source language arguments in the following order:

10998

11018
11019  So, a struct which can pass some fields as decomposed register arguments, will
11020  pass the rest as decomposed stack elements? But an argument that will not start
11021  in registers will not be decomposed and will be passed as a non-decomposed
11022  stack value?
11023
11024The following is not part of the AMDGPU function calling convention but
11025describes how the AMDGPU implements function calls:
11026
110271.  SGPR33 is used as a frame pointer (FP) if necessary. Like the SP it is an
11028    unswizzled scratch address. It is only needed if runtime sized ``alloca``
11029    are used, or for the reasons defined in ``SIFrameLowering``.
110302.  Runtime stack alignment is supported. SGPR34 is used as a base pointer (BP)
11031    to access the incoming stack arguments in the function. The BP is needed
11032    only when the function requires the runtime stack alignment.
11033
110343.  Allocating SGPR arguments on the stack are not supported.
11035
110364.  No CFI is currently generated. See
11037    :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`.
11038
11039    .. note::
11040
11041      CFI will be generated that defines the CFA as the unswizzled address
11042      relative to the wave scratch base in the unswizzled private address space
11043      of the lowest address stack allocated local variable.
11044
11045      ``DW_AT_frame_base`` will be defined as the swizzled address in the
11046      swizzled private address space by dividing the CFA by the wavefront size
11047      (since CFA is always at least dword aligned which matches the scratch
11048      swizzle element size).
11049
11050      If no dynamic stack alignment was performed, the stack allocated arguments
11051      are accessed as negative offsets relative to ``DW_AT_frame_base``, and the
11052      local variables and register spill slots are accessed as positive offsets
11053      relative to ``DW_AT_frame_base``.
11054
110555.  Function argument passing is implemented by copying the input physical
11056    registers to virtual registers on entry. The register allocator can spill if
11057    necessary. These are copied back to physical registers at call sites. The
11058    net effect is that each function call can have these values in entirely
11059    distinct locations. The IPRA can help avoid shuffling argument registers.
110606.  Call sites are implemented by setting up the arguments at positive offsets
11061    from SP. Then SP is incremented to account for the known frame size before
11062    the call and decremented after the call.
11063
11064    .. note::
11065
11066      The CFI will reflect the changed calculation needed to compute the CFA
11067      from SP.
11068
110697.  4 byte spill slots are used in the stack frame. One slot is allocated for an
11070    emergency spill slot. Buffer instructions are used for stack accesses and
11071    not the ``flat_scratch`` instruction.
11072
11073    .. TODO::
11074
11075      Explain when the emergency spill slot is used.
11076
11077.. TODO::
11078
11079  Possible broken issues:
11080
11081  - Stack arguments must be aligned to required alignment.
11082  - Stack is aligned to max(16, max formal argument alignment)
11083  - Direct argument < 64 bits should check register budget.
11084  - Register budget calculation should respect ``inreg`` for SGPR.
11085  - SGPR overflow is not handled.
11086  - struct with 1 member unpeeling is not checking size of member.
11087  - ``sret`` is after ``this`` pointer.
11088  - Caller is not implementing stack realignment: need an extra pointer.
11089  - Should say AMDGPU passes FP rather than SP.
11090  - Should CFI define CFA as address of locals or arguments. Difference is
11091    apparent when have implemented dynamic alignment.
11092  - If ``SCRATCH`` instruction could allow negative offsets, then can make FP be
11093    highest address of stack frame and use negative offset for locals. Would
11094    allow SP to be the same as FP and could support signal-handler-like as now
11095    have a real SP for the top of the stack.
11096  - How is ``sret`` passed on the stack? In argument stack area? Can it overlay
11097    arguments?

11346     ``reg offset``             32-bit integer ``reg offset`` is the dword offset into the GFXIP register space of
11347                                               a GRBM register (i.e., driver accessible GPU register number, not
11348                                               shader GPR register number). The driver is required to program each
11349                                               specified register to the corresponding specified value when
11350                                               executing this pipeline. Typically, the ``reg offsets`` are the
11351                                               ``uint16_t`` offsets to each register as defined by the hardware

11361User Data
11362+++++++++
11363
11364Each hardware stage has a set of 32-bit physical SPI *user data registers*
11365(either 16 or 32 based on graphics IP and the stage) which can be
11366written from a command buffer and then loaded into SGPRs when waves are
11367launched via a subsequent dispatch or draw operation. This is the way
11368most arguments are passed from the application/runtime to a hardware
11369shader.
11370
11371PAL abstracts this functionality by exposing a set of 128 *user data
11372entries* per pipeline a client can use to pass arguments from a command
11373buffer to one or more shaders in that pipeline. The ELF code object must
11374specify a mapping from virtualized *user data entries* to physical *user
11375data registers*, and PAL is responsible for implementing that mapping,
11376including spilling overflow *user data entries* to memory if needed.
11377
11378Since the *user data registers* are GRBM-accessible SPI registers, this
11379mapping is actually embedded in the ``.registers`` metadata entry. For
11380most registers, the value in that map is a literal 32-bit value that
11381should be written to the register by the driver. However, when the
11382register is a *user data register* (any USER_DATA register e.g.,
11383SPI_SHADER_USER_DATA_PS_5), the value is instead an encoding that tells
11384the driver to write either a *user data entry* value or one of several
11385driver-internal values to the register. This encoding is described in
11386the following table:
11387
11388.. note::
11389
11390  Currently, *user data registers* 0 and 1 (e.g., SPI_SHADER_USER_DATA_PS_0,
11391  and SPI_SHADER_USER_DATA_PS_1) are reserved. *User data register* 0 must
11392  always be programmed to the address of the GlobalTable, and *user data
11393  register* 1 must always be programmed to the address of the PerShaderTable.

11469It is possible for a hardware shader to need access to more *user data
11470entries* than there are slots available in user data registers for one
11471or more hardware shader stages. In that case, the PAL runtime expects
11472the necessary *user data entries* to be spilled to GPU memory and use
11473one user data register to point to the spilled user data memory. The
11474value of the *user data entry* must then represent the location where
11475a shader expects to read the low 32-bits of the table's GPU virtual
11476address. The *spill table* itself represents a set of 32-bit values
11477managed by the PAL runtime in GPU-accessible memory that can be made
11478indirectly accessible to a hardware shader.

11900This directive marks the beginning of a list of key / value pairs that are used
11901to specify the amd_kernel_code_t object that will be emitted by the assembler.
11902The list must be terminated by the *.end_amd_kernel_code_t* directive. For any
11903amd_kernel_code_t values that are unspecified a default value will be used. The
11904default value for all keys is 0, with the following exceptions:
11905
11906- *amd_code_version_major* defaults to 1.
11907- *amd_kernel_code_version_minor* defaults to 2.
11908- *amd_machine_kind* defaults to 1.
11909- *amd_machine_version_major*, *machine_version_minor*, and
11910  *amd_machine_version_stepping* are derived from the value of the -mcpu option
11911  that is passed to the assembler.
11912- *kernel_code_entry_byte_offset* defaults to 256.
11913- *wavefront_size* defaults 6 for all targets before GFX10. For GFX10 onwards
11914  defaults to 6 if target feature ``wavefrontsize64`` is enabled, otherwise 5.
11915  Note that wavefront size is specified as a power of two, so a value of **n**
11916  means a size of 2^ **n**.
11917- *call_convention* defaults to -1.
11918- *kernarg_segment_alignment*, *group_segment_alignment*, and
11919  *private_segment_alignment* default to 4. Note that alignments are specified
11920  as a power of 2, so a value of **n** means an alignment of 2^ **n**.
11921- *enable_tg_split* defaults to 1 if target feature ``tgsplit`` is enabled for
11922  GFX90A onwards.
11923- *enable_wgp_mode* defaults to 1 if target feature ``cumode`` is disabled for
11924  GFX10 onwards.
11925- *enable_mem_ordered* defaults to 1 for GFX10 onwards.

12072the OS is ``amdhsa``. ``<name>`` must be a symbol that labels the first
12073instruction to execute, and does not need to be previously defined.
12074
12075Marks the beginning of a list of directives used to generate the bytes of a
12076kernel descriptor, as described in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`.
12077Directives which may appear in this list are described in
12078:ref:`amdhsa-kernel-directives-table`. Directives may appear in any order, must
12079be valid for the target being assembled for, and cannot be repeated. Directives
12080support the range of values specified by the field they reference in
12081:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`. If a directive is not specified, it is
12082assumed to have its default value, unless it is marked as "Required", in which
12083case it is an error to omit the directive. This list of directives is
12084terminated by an ``.end_amdhsa_kernel`` directive.

12272This kernel is equivalent to the following HIP program:
12273
12274.. code::
12275   :number-lines:
12276
12277   __global__ void hello_world(float *p) {
12278       *p = 3.14159f;
12279   }
12280
12281If an assembly source file contains multiple kernels and/or functions, the
12282:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-assembler-symbol-next_free_vgpr` and
12283:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-assembler-symbol-next_free_sgpr` symbols may be reset using
12284the ``.set <symbol>, <expression>`` directive. For example, in the case of two
12285kernels, where ``function1`` is only called from ``kernel1`` it is sufficient
12286to group the function with the kernel that calls it and reset the symbols
12287between the two connected components:
12288
12289.. code::
12290   :number-lines:
12291
12292   .amdgcn_target "amdgcn-amd-amdhsa--gfx900+xnack" // optional

12351These symbols cannot identify connected components in order to automatically
12352track the usage for each kernel. However, in some cases careful organization of
12353the kernels and functions in the source file means there is minimal additional
12354effort required to accurately calculate GPR usage.
