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`).

428Target Features
429---------------
430
431Target features control how code is generated to support certain
432processor specific features. Not all target features are supported by
433all processors. The runtime must ensure that the features supported by
434the device used to execute the code match the features enabled when
435generating the code. A mismatch of features may result in incorrect
436execution, or a reduction in performance.
437
438The target features supported by each processor is listed in
439:ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`.
440
441Target features are controlled by exactly one of the following Clang
442options:
443
444``-mcpu=<target-id>`` or ``--offload-arch=<target-id>``
445
446  The ``-mcpu`` and ``--offload-arch`` can specify the target feature as
447  optional components of the target ID. If omitted, the target feature has the
448  ``any`` value. See :ref:`amdgpu-target-id`.
449
450``-m[no-]<target-feature>``
451
452  Target features not specified by the target ID are specified using a
453  separate option. These target features can have an ``on`` or ``off``
454  value.  ``on`` is specified by omitting the ``no-`` prefix, and
455  ``off`` is specified by including the ``no-`` prefix. The default
456  if not specified is ``off``.
457
458For example:
459
460``-mcpu=gfx908:xnack+``
461  Enable the ``xnack`` feature.
462``-mcpu=gfx908:xnack-``
463  Disable the ``xnack`` feature.
464``-mcumode``
465  Enable the ``cumode`` feature.
466``-mno-cumode``
467  Disable the ``cumode`` feature.

531
532Target ID
533---------
534
535AMDGPU supports target IDs. See `Clang Offload Bundler
536<https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_ for a general
537description. The AMDGPU target specific information is:
538
539**processor**
540  Is an AMDGPU processor or alternative processor name specified in
541  :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`. The non-canonical form target ID allows both
542  the primary processor and alternative processor names. The canonical form
543  target ID only allow the primary processor name.
544
545**target-feature**
546  Is a target feature name specified in :ref:`amdgpu-target-features-table` that
547  is supported by the processor. The target features supported by each processor
548  is specified in :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`. Those that can be specified in
549  a target ID are marked as being controlled by ``-mcpu`` and
550  ``--offload-arch``. Each target feature must appear at most once in a target
551  ID. The non-canonical form target ID allows the target features to be
552  specified in any order. The canonical form target ID requires the target
553  features to be specified in alphabetic order.
554
555.. _amdgpu-target-id-v2-v3:
556
557Code Object V2 to V3 Target ID
558~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
559
560The target ID syntax for code object V2 to V3 is the same as defined in `Clang
561Offload Bundler <https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_ except
562when used in the :ref:`amdgpu-assembler-directive-amdgcn-target` assembler
563directive and the bundle entry ID. In those cases it has the following BNF
564syntax:
565
566.. code::
567
568  <target-id> ::== <processor> ( "+" <target-feature> )*
569
570Where a target feature is omitted if *Off* and present if *On* or *Any*.
571
572.. note::
573
574  The code object V2 to V3 cannot represent *Any* and treats it the same as
575  *On*.
576
577.. _amdgpu-embedding-bundled-objects:
578
579Embedding Bundled Code Objects
580------------------------------
581
582AMDGPU supports the HIP and OpenMP languages that perform code object embedding
583as described in `Clang Offload Bundler
584<https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangOffloadBundler.html>`_.
585
586.. note::
587
588  The target ID syntax used for code object V2 to V3 for a bundle entry ID
589  differs from that used elsewhere. See :ref:`amdgpu-target-id-v2-v3`.
590
591.. _amdgpu-address-spaces:
592
593Address Spaces
594--------------
595
596The AMDGPU architecture supports a number of memory address spaces. The address
597space names use the OpenCL standard names, with some additions.
598
599The AMDGPU address spaces correspond to target architecture specific LLVM
600address space numbers used in LLVM IR.
601
602The AMDGPU address spaces are described in
603:ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces-table`. Only 64-bit process address spaces are
604supported for the ``amdgcn`` target.

622     Buffer Fat Pointer (experimental) 7               *TODO*
623     ================================= =============== =========== ================ ======= ============================
624
625**Generic**
626  The generic address space is supported unless the *Target Properties* column
627  of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` specifies *Does not support generic address
628  space*.
629
630  The generic address space uses the hardware flat address support for two fixed
631  ranges of virtual addresses (the private and local apertures), that are
632  outside the range of addressable global memory, to map from a flat address to
633  a private or local address. This uses FLAT instructions that can take a flat
634  address and access global, private (scratch), and group (LDS) memory depending
635  on if the address is within one of the aperture ranges.
636
637  Flat access to scratch requires hardware aperture setup and setup in the
638  kernel prologue (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`). Flat
639  access to LDS requires hardware aperture setup and M0 (GFX7-GFX8) register
640  setup (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`).
641
642  To convert between a private or group address space address (termed a segment
643  address) and a flat address the base address of the corresponding aperture
644  can be used. For GFX7-GFX8 these are available in the
645  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-hsa-aql-queue` the address of which can be obtained with
646  Queue Ptr SGPR (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). For
647  GFX9-GFX10 the aperture base addresses are directly available as inline
648  constant registers ``SRC_SHARED_BASE/LIMIT`` and ``SRC_PRIVATE_BASE/LIMIT``.
649  In 64-bit address mode the aperture sizes are 2^32 bytes and the base is
650  aligned to 2^32 which makes it easier to convert from flat to segment or
651  segment to flat.
652
653  A global address space address has the same value when used as a flat address
654  so no conversion is needed.
655
656**Global and Constant**
657  The global and constant address spaces both use global virtual addresses,
658  which are the same virtual address space used by the CPU. However, some
659  virtual addresses may only be accessible to the CPU, some only accessible
660  by the GPU, and some by both.
661
662  Using the constant address space indicates that the data will not change
663  during the execution of the kernel. This allows scalar read instructions to
664  be used. As the constant address space could only be modified on the host
665  side, a generic pointer loaded from the constant address space is safe to be
666  assumed as a global pointer since only the device global memory is visible
667  and managed on the host side. The vector and scalar L1 caches are invalidated
668  of volatile data before each kernel dispatch execution to allow constant
669  memory to change values between kernel dispatches.
670
671**Region**
672  The region address space uses the hardware Global Data Store (GDS). All
673  wavefronts executing on the same device will access the same memory for any
674  given region address. However, the same region address accessed by wavefronts
675  executing on different devices will access different memory. It is higher
676  performance than global memory. It is allocated by the runtime. The data
677  store (DS) instructions can be used to access it.
678
679**Local**
680  The local address space uses the hardware Local Data Store (LDS) which is
681  automatically allocated when the hardware creates the wavefronts of a
682  work-group, and freed when all the wavefronts of a work-group have
683  terminated. All wavefronts belonging to the same work-group will access the
684  same memory for any given local address. However, the same local address
685  accessed by wavefronts belonging to different work-groups will access
686  different memory. It is higher performance than global memory. The data store
687  (DS) instructions can be used to access it.
688
689**Private**
690  The private address space uses the hardware scratch memory support which
691  automatically allocates memory when it creates a wavefront and frees it when
692  a wavefronts terminates. The memory accessed by a lane of a wavefront for any
693  given private address will be different to the memory accessed by another lane
694  of the same or different wavefront for the same private address.
695
696  If a kernel dispatch uses scratch, then the hardware allocates memory from a
697  pool of backing memory allocated by the runtime for each wavefront. The lanes
698  of the wavefront access this using dword (4 byte) interleaving. The mapping
699  used from private address to backing memory address is:
700
701    ``wavefront-scratch-base +
702    ((private-address / 4) * wavefront-size * 4) +
703    (wavefront-lane-id * 4) + (private-address % 4)``
704
705  If each lane of a wavefront accesses the same private address, the
706  interleaving results in adjacent dwords being accessed and hence requires
707  fewer cache lines to be fetched.
708
709  There are different ways that the wavefront scratch base address is
710  determined by a wavefront (see
711  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`).
712
713  Scratch memory can be accessed in an interleaved manner using buffer
714  instructions with the scratch buffer descriptor and per wavefront scratch
715  offset, by the scratch instructions, or by flat instructions. Multi-dword
716  access is not supported except by flat and scratch instructions in
717  GFX9-GFX10.
718
719**Constant 32-bit**
720  *TODO*
721
722**Buffer Fat Pointer**
723  The buffer fat pointer is an experimental address space that is currently
724  unsupported in the backend. It exposes a non-integral pointer that is in
725  the future intended to support the modelling of 128-bit buffer descriptors
726  plus a 32-bit offset into the buffer (in total encapsulating a 160-bit
727  *pointer*), allowing normal LLVM load/store/atomic operations to be used to
728  model the buffer descriptors used heavily in graphics workloads targeting
729  the backend.

733Memory Scopes
734-------------
735
736This section provides LLVM memory synchronization scopes supported by the AMDGPU
737backend memory model when the target triple OS is ``amdhsa`` (see
738:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model` and :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
739
740The memory model supported is based on the HSA memory model [HSA]_ which is
741based in turn on HRF-indirect with scope inclusion [HRF]_. The happens-before
742relation is transitive over the synchronizes-with relation independent of scope
743and synchronizes-with allows the memory scope instances to be inclusive (see
744table :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-llvm-sync-scopes-table`).
745
746This is different to the OpenCL [OpenCL]_ memory model which does not have scope
747inclusion and requires the memory scopes to exactly match. However, this
748is conservatively correct for OpenCL.

934``e_ident[EI_CLASS]``
935  The ELF class is:
936
937  * ``ELFCLASS32`` for ``r600`` architecture.
938
939  * ``ELFCLASS64`` for ``amdgcn`` architecture which only supports 64-bit
940    process address space applications.
941
942``e_ident[EI_DATA]``
943  All AMDGPU targets use ``ELFDATA2LSB`` for little-endian byte ordering.
944
945``e_ident[EI_OSABI]``
946  One of the following AMDGPU target architecture specific OS ABIs
947  (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`):
948
949  * ``ELFOSABI_NONE`` for *unknown* OS.
950
951  * ``ELFOSABI_AMDGPU_HSA`` for ``amdhsa`` OS.
952
953  * ``ELFOSABI_AMDGPU_PAL`` for ``amdpal`` OS.
954
955  * ``ELFOSABI_AMDGPU_MESA3D`` for ``mesa3D`` OS.
956
957``e_ident[EI_ABIVERSION]``
958  The ABI version of the AMDGPU target architecture specific OS ABI to which the code
959  object conforms:
960
961  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_HSA_V2`` is used to specify the version of AMD HSA
962    runtime ABI for code object V2. Specify using the Clang option
963    ``-mcode-object-version=2``.
964
965  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_HSA_V3`` is used to specify the version of AMD HSA
966    runtime ABI for code object V3. Specify using the Clang option
967    ``-mcode-object-version=3``. This is the default code object
968    version if not specified.
969
970  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_HSA_V4`` is used to specify the version of AMD HSA
971    runtime ABI for code object V4. Specify using the Clang option
972    ``-mcode-object-version=4``.
973
974  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_PAL`` is used to specify the version of AMD PAL
975    runtime ABI.
976
977  * ``ELFABIVERSION_AMDGPU_MESA3D`` is used to specify the version of AMD MESA
978    3D runtime ABI.
979
980``e_type``
981  Can be one of the following values:
982
983
984  ``ET_REL``
985    The type produced by the AMDGPU backend compiler as it is relocatable code
986    object.
987
988  ``ET_DYN``
989    The type produced by the linker as it is a shared code object.
990
991  The AMD HSA runtime loader requires a ``ET_DYN`` code object.
992
993``e_machine``
994  The value ``EM_AMDGPU`` is used for the machine for all processors supported
995  by the ``r600`` and ``amdgcn`` architectures (see
996  :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`). The specific processor is specified in the
997  ``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_VERSION`` note record for code object V2 (see
998  :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2`) and in the ``EF_AMDGPU_MACH`` bit field of the
999  ``e_flags`` for code object V3 to V4 (see
1000  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-header-e_flags-table-v3` and
1001  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-header-e_flags-table-v4`).
1002
1003``e_entry``
1004  The entry point is 0 as the entry points for individual kernels must be
1005  selected in order to invoke them through AQL packets.
1006
1007``e_flags``
1008  The AMDGPU backend uses the following ELF header flags:

1223Note Records
1224------------
1225
1226The AMDGPU backend code object contains ELF note records in the ``.note``
1227section. The set of generated notes and their semantics depend on the code
1228object version; see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2` and
1229:ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3-v4`.
1230
1231As required by ``ELFCLASS32`` and ``ELFCLASS64``, minimal zero-byte padding
1232must be generated after the ``name`` field to ensure the ``desc`` field is 4
1233byte aligned. In addition, minimal zero-byte padding must be generated to
1234ensure the ``desc`` field size is a multiple of 4 bytes. The ``sh_addralign``
1235field of the ``.note`` section must be at least 4 to indicate at least 8 byte
1236alignment.

1290  .. code:: c
1291
1292    struct amdgpu_hsa_note_code_object_version_s {

1296
1297  The ``major_version`` has a value less than or equal to 2.
1298
1299``NT_AMD_HSA_HSAIL``
1300  Specifies the HSAIL properties used by the HSAIL Finalizer. The description
1301  field has the following layout:
1302
1303  .. code:: c
1304
1305    struct amdgpu_hsa_note_hsail_s {

1318    struct amdgpu_hsa_note_isa_s {
1319      uint16_t vendor_name_size;

1324      char vendor_and_architecture_name[1];
1325    };
1326
1327  ``vendor_name_size`` and ``architecture_name_size`` are the length of the
1328  vendor and architecture names respectively, including the NUL character.
1329
1330  ``vendor_and_architecture_name`` contains the NUL terminates string for the
1331  vendor, immediately followed by the NUL terminated string for the
1332  architecture.
1333
1334  This note record is used by the HSA runtime loader.
1335
1336  Code object V2 only supports a limited number of processors and has fixed
1337  settings for target features. See
1338  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-note-record-supported_processors-v2-table` for a list of
1339  processors and the corresponding target ID. In the table the note record ISA
1340  name is a concatenation of the vendor name, architecture name, major, minor,
1341  and stepping separated by a ":".
1342
1343  The target ID column shows the processor name and fixed target features used
1344  by the LLVM compiler. The LLVM compiler does not generate a
1345  ``NT_AMD_HSA_HSAIL`` note record.
1346
1347  A code object generated by the Finalizer also uses code object V2 and always
1348  generates a ``NT_AMD_HSA_HSAIL`` note record. The processor name and
1349  ``sramecc`` target feature is as shown in
1350  :ref:`amdgpu-elf-note-record-supported_processors-v2-table` but the ``xnack``
1351  target feature is specified by the ``EF_AMDGPU_FEATURE_XNACK_V2`` ``e_flags``
1352  bit.
1353
1354``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_NAME``
1355  Specifies the target ISA name as a non-NUL terminated string.
1356
1357  This note record is not used by the HSA runtime loader.
1358
1359  See the ``NT_AMD_HSA_ISA_VERSION`` note record description of the code object
1360  V2's limited support of processors and fixed settings for target features.
1361
1362  See :ref:`amdgpu-elf-note-record-supported_processors-v2-table` for a mapping
1363  from the string to the corresponding target ID. If the ``xnack`` target
1364  feature is supported and enabled, the string produced by the LLVM compiler
1365  will may have a ``+xnack`` appended. The Finlizer did not do the appending and
1366  instead used the ``EF_AMDGPU_FEATURE_XNACK_V2`` ``e_flags`` bit.
1367
1368``NT_AMD_HSA_METADATA``
1369  Specifies extensible metadata associated with the code objects executed on HSA
1370  [HSA]_ compatible runtimes (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`). It is required when the
1371  target triple OS is ``amdhsa`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`). See

1517
1518Following notations are used for specifying relocation calculations:
1519
1520**A**
1521  Represents the addend used to compute the value of the relocatable field.
1522
1523**G**
1524  Represents the offset into the global offset table at which the relocation
1525  entry's symbol will reside during execution.
1526
1527**GOT**
1528  Represents the address of the global offset table.
1529
1530**P**
1531  Represents the place (section offset for ``et_rel`` or address for ``et_dyn``)
1532  of the storage unit being relocated (computed using ``r_offset``).
1533
1534**S**
1535  Represents the value of the symbol whose index resides in the relocation
1536  entry. Relocations not using this must specify a symbol index of
1537  ``STN_UNDEF``.
1538
1539**B**
1540  Represents the base address of a loaded executable or shared object which is
1541  the difference between the ELF address and the actual load address.
1542  Relocations using this are only valid in executable or shared objects.
1543
1544The following relocation types are supported:

1580Loaded Code Object Path Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
1581---------------------------------------------------------
1582
1583The AMD GPU code object loader represents the path of the ELF shared object from
1584which the code object was loaded as a textual Unifom Resource Identifier (URI).
1585Note that the code object is the in memory loaded relocated form of the ELF
1586shared object.  Multiple code objects may be loaded at different memory
1587addresses in the same process from the same ELF shared object.
1588
1589The loaded code object path URI syntax is defined by the following BNF syntax:
1590
1591.. code::
1592
1593  code_object_uri ::== file_uri | memory_uri
1594  file_uri        ::== "file://" file_path [ range_specifier ]
1595  memory_uri      ::== "memory://" process_id range_specifier
1596  range_specifier ::== [ "#" | "?" ] "offset=" number "&" "size=" number
1597  file_path       ::== URI_ENCODED_OS_FILE_PATH
1598  process_id      ::== DECIMAL_NUMBER
1599  number          ::== HEX_NUMBER | DECIMAL_NUMBER | OCTAL_NUMBER
1600
1601**number**
1602  Is a C integral literal where hexadecimal values are prefixed by "0x" or "0X",
1603  and octal values by "0".
1604
1605**file_path**
1606  Is the file's path specified as a URI encoded UTF-8 string. In URI encoding,
1607  every character that is not in the regular expression ``[a-zA-Z0-9/_.~-]`` is
1608  encoded as two uppercase hexadecimal digits proceeded by "%".  Directories in
1609  the path are separated by "/".
1610
1611**offset**
1612  Is a 0-based byte offset to the start of the code object.  For a file URI, it
1613  is from the start of the file specified by the ``file_path``, and if omitted
1614  defaults to 0. For a memory URI, it is the memory address and is required.
1615
1616**size**
1617  Is the number of bytes in the code object.  For a file URI, if omitted it
1618  defaults to the size of the file.  It is required for a memory URI.
1619
1620**process_id**
1621  Is the identity of the process owning the memory.  For Linux it is the C
1622  unsigned integral decimal literal for the process ID (PID).
1623
1624For example:
1625
1626.. code::
1627
1628  file:///dir1/dir2/file1
1629  file:///dir3/dir4/file2#offset=0x2000&size=3000
1630  memory://1234#offset=0x20000&size=3000

1637.. warning::
1638
1639   This section describes **provisional support** for AMDGPU DWARF [DWARF]_ that
1640   is not currently fully implemented and is subject to change.
1641
1642AMDGPU generates DWARF [DWARF]_ debugging information ELF sections (see
1643:ref:`amdgpu-elf-code-object`) which contain information that maps the code
1644object executable code and data to the source language constructs. It can be
1645used by tools such as debuggers and profilers. It uses features defined in
1646:doc:`AMDGPUDwarfExtensionsForHeterogeneousDebugging` that are made available in
1647DWARF Version 4 and DWARF Version 5 as an LLVM vendor extension.
1648
1649This section defines the AMDGPU target architecture specific DWARF mappings.
1650
1651.. _amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier:
1652
1653Register Identifier
1654-------------------
1655
1656This section defines the AMDGPU target architecture register numbers used in
1657DWARF operation expressions (see DWARF Version 5 section 2.5 and
1658:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`) and Call Frame Information
1659instructions (see DWARF Version 5 section 6.4 and
1660:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`).
1661
1662A single code object can contain code for kernels that have different wavefront
1663sizes. The vector registers and some scalar registers are based on the wavefront
1664size. AMDGPU defines distinct DWARF registers for each wavefront size. This
1665simplifies the consumer of the DWARF so that each register has a fixed size,
1666rather than being dynamic according to the wavefront size mode. Similarly,
1667distinct DWARF registers are defined for those registers that vary in size
1668according to the process address size. This allows a consumer to treat a
1669specific AMDGPU processor as a single architecture regardless of how it is
1670configured at run time. The compiler explicitly specifies the DWARF registers
1671that match the mode in which the code it is generating will be executed.
1672
1673DWARF registers are encoded as numbers, which are mapped to architecture
1674registers. The mapping for AMDGPU is defined in
1675:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-mapping-table`. All AMDGPU targets use the same
1676mapping.

1751The vector registers are represented as the full size for the wavefront. They
1752are organized as consecutive dwords (32-bits), one per lane, with the dword at
1753the least significant bit position corresponding to lane 0 and so forth. DWARF
1754location expressions involving the ``DW_OP_LLVM_offset`` and
1755``DW_OP_LLVM_push_lane`` operations are used to select the part of the vector
1756register corresponding to the lane that is executing the current thread of
1757execution in languages that are implemented using a SIMD or SIMT execution
1758model.
1759
1760If the wavefront size is 32 lanes then the wavefront 32 mode register
1761definitions are used. If the wavefront size is 64 lanes then the wavefront 64
1762mode register definitions are used. Some AMDGPU targets support executing in
1763both wavefront 32 and wavefront 64 mode. The register definitions corresponding
1764to the wavefront mode of the generated code will be used.
1765
1766If code is generated to execute in a 32-bit process address space, then the
176732-bit process address space register definitions are used. If code is generated
1768to execute in a 64-bit process address space, then the 64-bit process address
1769space register definitions are used. The ``amdgcn`` target only supports the
177064-bit process address space.

1850
1851The ``DW_ASPACE_none`` address space is the default target architecture address
1852space used in DWARF operations that do not specify an address space. It
1853therefore has to map to the global address space so that the ``DW_OP_addr*`` and
1854related operations can refer to addresses in the program code.
1855
1856The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_generic`` address space allows location expressions to
1857specify the flat address space. If the address corresponds to an address in the
1858local address space, then it corresponds to the wavefront that is executing the
1859focused thread of execution. If the address corresponds to an address in the
1860private address space, then it corresponds to the lane that is executing the
1861focused thread of execution for languages that are implemented using a SIMD or
1862SIMT execution model.
1863
1864.. note::
1865
1866  CUDA-like languages such as HIP that do not have address spaces in the
1867  language type system, but do allow variables to be allocated in different
1868  address spaces, need to explicitly specify the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_generic``
1869  address space in the DWARF expression operations as the default address space
1870  is the global address space.
1871
1872The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_local`` address space allows location expressions to
1873specify the local address space corresponding to the wavefront that is executing
1874the focused thread of execution.
1875
1876The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address space allows location expressions
1877to specify the private address space corresponding to the lane that is executing
1878the focused thread of execution for languages that are implemented using a SIMD
1879or SIMT execution model.
1880
1881The ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address space allows location expressions
1882to specify the unswizzled private address space corresponding to the wavefront
1883that is executing the focused thread of execution. The wavefront view of private
1884memory is the per wavefront unswizzled backing memory layout defined in
1885:ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`, such that address 0 corresponds to the first
1886location for the backing memory of the wavefront (namely the address is not
1887offset by ``wavefront-scratch-base``). The following formula can be used to
1888convert from a ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address to a
1889``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address:
1890
1891::
1892
1893  private-address-wavefront =
1894    ((private-address-lane / 4) * wavefront-size * 4) +
1895    (wavefront-lane-id * 4) + (private-address-lane % 4)
1896
1897If the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address is dword aligned, and the start
1898of the dwords for each lane starting with lane 0 is required, then this
1899simplifies to:
1900
1901::
1902
1903  private-address-wavefront =
1904    private-address-lane * wavefront-size
1905
1906A compiler can use the ``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address space to read a
1907complete spilled vector register back into a complete vector register in the
1908CFI. The frame pointer can be a private lane address which is dword aligned,
1909which can be shifted to multiply by the wavefront size, and then used to form a
1910private wavefront address that gives a location for a contiguous set of dwords,
1911one per lane, where the vector register dwords are spilled. The compiler knows
1912the wavefront size since it generates the code. Note that the type of the
1913address may have to be converted as the size of a
1914``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_lane`` address may be smaller than the size of a
1915``DW_ASPACE_AMDGPU_private_wave`` address.
1916
1917.. _amdgpu-dwarf-lane-identifier:
1918
1919Lane identifier
1920---------------
1921
1922DWARF lane identifies specify a target architecture lane position for hardware
1923that executes in a SIMD or SIMT manner, and on which a source language maps its
1924threads of execution onto those lanes. The DWARF lane identifier is pushed by
1925the ``DW_OP_LLVM_push_lane`` DWARF expression operation. See DWARF Version 5
1926section 2.5 which is updated by *DWARF Extensions For Heterogeneous Debugging*
1927section :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`.
1928
1929For AMDGPU, the lane identifier corresponds to the hardware lane ID of a
1930wavefront. It is numbered from 0 to the wavefront size minus 1.
1931
1932Operation Expressions
1933---------------------
1934
1935DWARF expressions are used to compute program values and the locations of
1936program objects. See DWARF Version 5 section 2.5 and
1937:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-operation-expressions`.
1938
1939DWARF location descriptions describe how to access storage which includes memory
1940and registers. When accessing storage on AMDGPU, bytes are ordered with least
1941significant bytes first, and bits are ordered within bytes with least
1942significant bits first.
1943
1944For AMDGPU CFI expressions, ``DW_OP_LLVM_select_bit_piece`` is used to describe
1945unwinding vector registers that are spilled under the execution mask to memory:
1946the zero-single location description is the vector register, and the one-single
1947location description is the spilled memory location description. The
1948``DW_OP_LLVM_form_aspace_address`` is used to specify the address space of the
1949memory location description.
1950
1951In AMDGPU expressions, ``DW_OP_LLVM_select_bit_piece`` is used by the
1952``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute expression where divergent control flow is
1953controlled by the execution mask. An undefined location description together
1954with ``DW_OP_LLVM_extend`` is used to indicate the lane was not active on entry
1955to the subprogram. See :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-dw-at-llvm-lane-pc` for an example.
1956
1957Debugger Information Entry Attributes
1958-------------------------------------
1959
1960This section describes how certain debugger information entry attributes are
1961used by AMDGPU. See the sections in DWARF Version 5 section 2 which are updated
1962by *DWARF Extensions For Heterogeneous Debugging* section
1963:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-debugging-information-entry-attributes`.
1964
1965.. _amdgpu-dwarf-dw-at-llvm-lane-pc:
1966
1967``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc``
1968~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1969
1970For AMDGPU, the ``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute is used to specify the program
1971location of the separate lanes of a SIMT thread.
1972
1973If the lane is an active lane then this will be the same as the current program
1974location.
1975
1976If the lane is inactive, but was active on entry to the subprogram, then this is
1977the program location in the subprogram at which execution of the lane is
1978conceptual positioned.
1979
1980If the lane was not active on entry to the subprogram, then this will be the
1981undefined location. A client debugger can check if the lane is part of a valid
1982work-group by checking that the lane is in the range of the associated
1983work-group within the grid, accounting for partial work-groups. If it is not,
1984then the debugger can omit any information for the lane. Otherwise, the debugger
1985may repeatedly unwind the stack and inspect the ``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` of the
1986calling subprogram until it finds a non-undefined location. Conceptually the
1987lane only has the call frames that it has a non-undefined
1988``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc``.
1989
1990The following example illustrates how the AMDGPU backend can generate a DWARF
1991location list expression for the nested ``IF/THEN/ELSE`` structures of the
1992following subprogram pseudo code for a target with 64 lanes per wavefront.
1993
1994.. code::
1995  :number-lines:
1996
1997  SUBPROGRAM X
1998  BEGIN
1999    a;
2000    IF (c1) THEN
2001      b;
2002      IF (c2) THEN
2003        c;
2004      ELSE
2005        d;
2006      ENDIF
2007      e;
2008    ELSE
2009      f;
2010    ENDIF
2011    g;
2012  END
2013
2014The AMDGPU backend may generate the following pseudo LLVM MIR to manipulate the
2015execution mask (``EXEC``) to linearize the control flow. The condition is
2016evaluated to make a mask of the lanes for which the condition evaluates to true.
2017First the ``THEN`` region is executed by setting the ``EXEC`` mask to the
2018logical ``AND`` of the current ``EXEC`` mask with the condition mask. Then the
2019``ELSE`` region is executed by negating the ``EXEC`` mask and logical ``AND`` of
2020the saved ``EXEC`` mask at the start of the region. After the ``IF/THEN/ELSE``
2021region the ``EXEC`` mask is restored to the value it had at the beginning of the
2022region. This is shown below. Other approaches are possible, but the basic
2023concept is the same.

2056To create the DWARF location list expression that defines the location
2057description of a vector of lane program locations, the LLVM MIR ``DBG_VALUE``
2058pseudo instruction can be used to annotate the linearized control flow. This can
2059be done by defining an artificial variable for the lane PC. The DWARF location
2060list expression created for it is used as the value of the
2061``DW_AT_LLVM_lane_pc`` attribute on the subprogram's debugger information entry.
2062
2063A DWARF procedure is defined for each well nested structured control flow region
2064which provides the conceptual lane program location for a lane if it is not
2065active (namely it is divergent). The DWARF operation expression for each region
2066conceptually inherits the value of the immediately enclosing region and modifies
2067it according to the semantics of the region.
2068
2069For an ``IF/THEN/ELSE`` region the divergent program location is at the start of
2070the region for the ``THEN`` region since it is executed first. For the ``ELSE``
2071region the divergent program location is at the end of the ``IF/THEN/ELSE``
2072region since the ``THEN`` region has completed.
2073
2074The lane PC artificial variable is assigned at each region transition. It uses
2075the immediately enclosing region's DWARF procedure to compute the program
2076location for each lane assuming they are divergent, and then modifies the result
2077by inserting the current program location for each lane that the ``EXEC`` mask
2078indicates is active.
2079
2080By having separate DWARF procedures for each region, they can be reused to
2081define the value for any nested region. This reduces the total size of the DWARF
2082operation expressions.
2083
2084The following provides an example using pseudo LLVM MIR.

2212    ];
2213    g;
2214  $lex_end:
2215
2216The DWARF procedure ``%__active_lane_pc`` is used to update the lane pc elements
2217that are active, with the current program location.
2218
2219Artificial variables %__lex_1_save_exec and %__lex_1_1_save_exec are created for
2220the execution masks saved on entry to a region. Using the ``DBG_VALUE`` pseudo
2221instruction, location list entries will be created that describe where the
2222artificial variables are allocated at any given program location. The compiler
2223may allocate them to registers or spill them to memory.
2224
2225The DWARF procedures for each region use the values of the saved execution mask
2226artificial variables to only update the lanes that are active on entry to the
2227region. All other lanes retain the value of the enclosing region where they were
2228last active. If they were not active on entry to the subprogram, then will have
2229the undefined location description.
2230
2231Other structured control flow regions can be handled similarly. For example,
2232loops would set the divergent program location for the region at the end of the
2233loop. Any lanes active will be in the loop, and any lanes not active must have
2234exited the loop.
2235
2236An ``IF/THEN/ELSEIF/ELSEIF/...`` region can be treated as a nest of
2237``IF/THEN/ELSE`` regions.
2238
2239The DWARF procedures can use the active lane artificial variable described in
2240:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-amdgpu-dw-at-llvm-active-lane` rather than the actual
2241``EXEC`` mask in order to support whole or quad wavefront mode.
2242
2243.. _amdgpu-dwarf-amdgpu-dw-at-llvm-active-lane:
2244
2245``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane``
2246~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2247
2248The ``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane`` attribute on a subprogram debugger information
2249entry is used to specify the lanes that are conceptually active for a SIMT
2250thread.
2251
2252The execution mask may be modified to implement whole or quad wavefront mode
2253operations. For example, all lanes may need to temporarily be made active to
2254execute a whole wavefront operation. Such regions would save the ``EXEC`` mask,
2255update it to enable the necessary lanes, perform the operations, and then
2256restore the ``EXEC`` mask from the saved value. While executing the whole
2257wavefront region, the conceptual execution mask is the saved value, not the
2258``EXEC`` value.
2259
2260This is handled by defining an artificial variable for the active lane mask. The
2261active lane mask artificial variable would be the actual ``EXEC`` mask for
2262normal regions, and the saved execution mask for regions where the mask is
2263temporarily updated. The location list expression created for this artificial
2264variable is used to define the value of the ``DW_AT_LLVM_active_lane``
2265attribute.
2266
2267``DW_AT_LLVM_augmentation``
2268~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2269
2270For AMDGPU, the ``DW_AT_LLVM_augmentation`` attribute of a compilation unit
2271debugger information entry has the following value for the augmentation string:
2272
2273::
2274
2275  [amdgpu:v0.0]
2276
2277The "vX.Y" specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
2278extensions used in the DWARF of the compilation unit. The version number
2279conforms to [SEMVER]_.
2280
2281Call Frame Information
2282----------------------
2283
2284DWARF Call Frame Information (CFI) describes how a consumer can virtually
2285*unwind* call frames in a running process or core dump. See DWARF Version 5
2286section 6.4 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`.
2287
2288For AMDGPU, the Common Information Entry (CIE) fields have the following values:
2289
22901.  ``augmentation`` string contains the following null-terminated UTF-8 string:
2291
2292    ::
2293
2294      [amd:v0.0]
2295
2296    The ``vX.Y`` specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
2297    extensions used in this CIE or to the FDEs that use it. The version number
2298    conforms to [SEMVER]_.
2299
23002.  ``address_size`` for the ``Global`` address space is defined in
2301    :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
2302
23033.  ``segment_selector_size`` is 0 as AMDGPU does not use a segment selector.
2304
23054.  ``code_alignment_factor`` is 4 bytes.
2306
2307    .. TODO::
2308
2309       Add to :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` table.
2310
23115.  ``data_alignment_factor`` is 4 bytes.
2312
2313    .. TODO::
2314
2315       Add to :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` table.
2316
23176.  ``return_address_register`` is ``PC_32`` for 32-bit processes and ``PC_64``
2318    for 64-bit processes defined in :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier`.
2319
23207.  ``initial_instructions`` Since a subprogram X with fewer registers can be
2321    called from subprogram Y that has more allocated, X will not change any of
2322    the extra registers as it cannot access them. Therefore, the default rule
2323    for all columns is ``same value``.
2324
2325For AMDGPU the register number follows the numbering defined in
2326:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-register-identifier`.
2327
2328For AMDGPU the instructions are variable size. A consumer can subtract 1 from
2329the return address to get the address of a byte within the call site
2330instructions. See DWARF Version 5 section 6.4.4.

2337Lookup By Name Section Header
2338~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2339
2340See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.1.4.1 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-lookup-by-name`.
2341
2342For AMDGPU the lookup by name section header table:
2343
2344``augmentation_string_size`` (uword)
2345
2346  Set to the length of the ``augmentation_string`` value which is always a
2347  multiple of 4.
2348
2349``augmentation_string`` (sequence of UTF-8 characters)
2350
2351  Contains the following UTF-8 string null padded to a multiple of 4 bytes:
2352
2353  ::
2354
2355    [amdgpu:v0.0]
2356
2357  The "vX.Y" specifies the major X and minor Y version number of the AMDGPU
2358  extensions used in the DWARF of this index. The version number conforms to
2359  [SEMVER]_.
2360
2361  .. note::
2362
2363    This is different to the DWARF Version 5 definition that requires the first
2364    4 characters to be the vendor ID. But this is consistent with the other
2365    augmentation strings and does allow multiple vendor contributions. However,
2366    backwards compatibility may be more desirable.
2367
2368Lookup By Address Section Header
2369~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2370
2371See DWARF Version 5 section 6.1.2.
2372
2373For AMDGPU the lookup by address section header table:
2374
2375``address_size`` (ubyte)
2376
2377  Match the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
2378  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
2379
2380``segment_selector_size`` (ubyte)
2381
2382  AMDGPU does not use a segment selector so this is 0. The entries in the
2383  ``.debug_aranges`` do not have a segment selector.
2384
2385Line Number Information
2386-----------------------
2387
2388See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2 and :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-line-number-information`.
2389
2390AMDGPU does not use the ``isa`` state machine registers and always sets it to 0.
2391The instruction set must be obtained from the ELF file header ``e_flags`` field
2392in the ``EF_AMDGPU_MACH`` bit position (see :ref:`ELF Header
2393<amdgpu-elf-header>`). See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.2.
2394
2395.. TODO::
2396
2397  Should the ``isa`` state machine register be used to indicate if the code is
2398  in wavefront32 or wavefront64 mode? Or used to specify the architecture ISA?
2399
2400For AMDGPU the line number program header fields have the following values (see
2401DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.4):
2402
2403``address_size`` (ubyte)
2404  Matches the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
2405  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.
2406
2407``segment_selector_size`` (ubyte)
2408  AMDGPU does not use a segment selector so this is 0.
2409
2410``minimum_instruction_length`` (ubyte)
2411  For GFX9-GFX10 this is 4.
2412
2413``maximum_operations_per_instruction`` (ubyte)
2414  For GFX9-GFX10 this is 1.
2415
2416Source text for online-compiled programs (for example, those compiled by the
2417OpenCL language runtime) may be embedded into the DWARF Version 5 line table.
2418See DWARF Version 5 section 6.2.4.1 which is updated by *DWARF Extensions For
2419Heterogeneous Debugging* section :ref:`DW_LNCT_LLVM_source

2448See DWARF Version 5 section 7.4 and
2449:ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-32-bit-and-64-bit-dwarf-formats`.
2450
2451For AMDGPU:
2452
2453* For the ``amdgcn`` target architecture only the 64-bit process address space
2454  is supported.
2455
2456* The producer can generate either 32-bit or 64-bit DWARF format. LLVM generates
2457  the 32-bit DWARF format.
2458
2459Unit Headers
2460------------
2461
2462For AMDGPU the following values apply for each of the unit headers described in

2464
2465``address_size`` (ubyte)
2466  Matches the address size for the ``Global`` address space defined in
2467  :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier`.

2474This section provides code conventions used for each supported target triple OS
2475(see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`).
2476
2477AMDHSA
2478------
2479
2480This section provides code conventions used when the target triple OS is

2482
2483.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata:
2484
2485Code Object Metadata
2486~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2487
2488The code object metadata specifies extensible metadata associated with the code
2489objects executed on HSA [HSA]_ compatible runtimes (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`). The
2490encoding and semantics of this metadata depends on the code object version; see
2491:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v2`,
2492:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v3`, and
2493:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-v4`.
2494
2495Code object metadata is specified in a note record (see
2496:ref:`amdgpu-note-records`) and is required when the target triple OS is
2497``amdhsa`` (see :ref:`amdgpu-target-triples`). It must contain the minimum
2498information necessary to support the HSA compatible runtime kernel queries. For
2499example, the segment sizes needed in a dispatch packet. In addition, a
2500high-level language runtime may require other information to be included. For
2501example, the AMD OpenCL runtime records kernel argument information.

2513(see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v2`).
2514
2515The metadata is specified as a YAML formatted string (see [YAML]_ and
2516:doc:`YamlIO`).
2517
2518.. TODO::
2519
2520  Is the string null terminated? It probably should not if YAML allows it to
2521  contain null characters, otherwise it should be.
2522
2523The metadata is represented as a single YAML document comprised of the mapping
2524defined in table :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-map-v2-table` and
2525referenced tables.
2526
2527For boolean values, the string values of ``false`` and ``true`` are used for

2933
2934Code object V3 to V4 metadata is specified by the ``NT_AMDGPU_METADATA`` note
2935record (see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3-v4`).
2936
2937The metadata is represented as Message Pack formatted binary data (see
2938[MsgPack]_). The top level is a Message Pack map that includes the
2939keys defined in table
2940:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata-map-table-v3` and referenced
2941tables.
2942
2943Additional information can be added to the maps. To avoid conflicts,
2944any key names should be prefixed by "*vendor-name*." where
2945``vendor-name`` can be the name of the vendor and specific vendor
2946tool that generates the information. The prefix is abbreviated to
2947simply "." when it appears within a map that has been added by the
2948same *vendor-name*.

3369Kernel Dispatch
3370~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3371
3372The HSA architected queuing language (AQL) defines a user space memory interface
3373that can be used to control the dispatch of kernels, in an agent independent
3374way. An agent can have zero or more AQL queues created for it using an HSA
3375compatible runtime (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`), in which AQL packets (all of which
3376are 64 bytes) can be placed. See the *HSA Platform System Architecture
3377Specification* [HSA]_ for the AQL queue mechanics and packet layouts.
3378
3379The packet processor of a kernel agent is responsible for detecting and
3380dispatching HSA kernels from the AQL queues associated with it. For AMD GPUs the
3381packet processor is implemented by the hardware command processor (CP),
3382asynchronous dispatch controller (ADC) and shader processor input controller
3383(SPI).
3384
3385An HSA compatible runtime can be used to allocate an AQL queue object. It uses
3386the kernel mode driver to initialize and register the AQL queue with CP.
3387
3388To dispatch a kernel the following actions are performed. This can occur in the
3389CPU host program, or from an HSA kernel executing on a GPU.
3390
33911. A pointer to an AQL queue for the kernel agent on which the kernel is to be
3392   executed is obtained.
33932. A pointer to the kernel descriptor (see
3394   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`) of the kernel to execute is obtained.
3395   It must be for a kernel that is contained in a code object that that was
3396   loaded by an HSA compatible runtime on the kernel agent with which the AQL
3397   queue is associated.
33983. Space is allocated for the kernel arguments using the HSA compatible runtime
3399   allocator for a memory region with the kernarg property for the kernel agent
3400   that will execute the kernel. It must be at least 16-byte aligned.
34014. Kernel argument values are assigned to the kernel argument memory
3402   allocation. The layout is defined in the *HSA Programmer's Language
3403   Reference* [HSA]_. For AMDGPU the kernel execution directly accesses the
3404   kernel argument memory in the same way constant memory is accessed. (Note
3405   that the HSA specification allows an implementation to copy the kernel
3406   argument contents to another location that is accessed by the kernel.)
34075. An AQL kernel dispatch packet is created on the AQL queue. The HSA compatible
3408   runtime api uses 64-bit atomic operations to reserve space in the AQL queue
3409   for the packet. The packet must be set up, and the final write must use an
3410   atomic store release to set the packet kind to ensure the packet contents are
3411   visible to the kernel agent. AQL defines a doorbell signal mechanism to
3412   notify the kernel agent that the AQL queue has been updated. These rules, and
3413   the layout of the AQL queue and kernel dispatch packet is defined in the *HSA
3414   System Architecture Specification* [HSA]_.
34156. A kernel dispatch packet includes information about the actual dispatch,
3416   such as grid and work-group size, together with information from the code
3417   object about the kernel, such as segment sizes. The HSA compatible runtime
3418   queries on the kernel symbol can be used to obtain the code object values
3419   which are recorded in the :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-code-object-metadata`.
34207. CP executes micro-code and is responsible for detecting and setting up the
3421   GPU to execute the wavefronts of a kernel dispatch.
34228. CP ensures that when the a wavefront starts executing the kernel machine
3423   code, the scalar general purpose registers (SGPR) and vector general purpose
3424   registers (VGPR) are set up as required by the machine code. The required
3425   setup is defined in the :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`. The initial
3426   register state is defined in
3427   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`.
34289. The prolog of the kernel machine code (see
3429   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog`) sets up the machine state as necessary
3430   before continuing executing the machine code that corresponds to the kernel.
343110. When the kernel dispatch has completed execution, CP signals the completion
3432    signal specified in the kernel dispatch packet if not 0.

3457
3458The global and constant memory spaces both use global virtual addresses, which
3459are the same virtual address space used by the CPU. However, some virtual
3460addresses may only be accessible to the CPU, some only accessible by the GPU,
3461and some by both.
3462
3463Using the constant memory space indicates that the data will not change during
3464the execution of the kernel. This allows scalar read instructions to be
3465used. The vector and scalar L1 caches are invalidated of volatile data before
3466each kernel dispatch execution to allow constant memory to change values between
3467kernel dispatches.
3468
3469The local memory space uses the hardware Local Data Store (LDS) which is
3470automatically allocated when the hardware creates work-groups of wavefronts, and
3471freed when all the wavefronts of a work-group have terminated. The data store
3472(DS) instructions can be used to access it.
3473
3474The private memory space uses the hardware scratch memory support. If the kernel
3475uses scratch, then the hardware allocates memory that is accessed using
3476wavefront lane dword (4 byte) interleaving. The mapping used from private
3477address to physical address is:
3478
3479  ``wavefront-scratch-base +
3480  (private-address * wavefront-size * 4) +
3481  (wavefront-lane-id * 4)``
3482
3483There are different ways that the wavefront scratch base address is determined
3484by a wavefront (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). This
3485memory can be accessed in an interleaved manner using buffer instruction with
3486the scratch buffer descriptor and per wavefront scratch offset, by the scratch
3487instructions, or by flat instructions. If each lane of a wavefront accesses the
3488same private address, the interleaving results in adjacent dwords being accessed
3489and hence requires fewer cache lines to be fetched. Multi-dword access is not
3490supported except by flat and scratch instructions in GFX9-GFX10.
3491
3492The generic address space uses the hardware flat address support available in
3493GFX7-GFX10. This uses two fixed ranges of virtual addresses (the private and
3494local apertures), that are outside the range of addressible global memory, to
3495map from a flat address to a private or local address.
3496
3497FLAT instructions can take a flat address and access global, private (scratch)
3498and group (LDS) memory depending in if the address is within one of the
3499aperture ranges. Flat access to scratch requires hardware aperture setup and
3500setup in the kernel prologue (see
3501:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`). Flat access to LDS requires
3502hardware aperture setup and M0 (GFX7-GFX8) register setup (see
3503:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`).
3504
3505To convert between a segment address and a flat address the base address of the
3506apertures address can be used. For GFX7-GFX8 these are available in the
3507:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-hsa-aql-queue` the address of which can be obtained with
3508Queue Ptr SGPR (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`). For
3509GFX9-GFX10 the aperture base addresses are directly available as inline constant
3510registers ``SRC_SHARED_BASE/LIMIT`` and ``SRC_PRIVATE_BASE/LIMIT``. In 64 bit
3511address mode the aperture sizes are 2^32 bytes and the base is aligned to 2^32
3512which makes it easier to convert from flat to segment or segment to flat.
3513
3514Image and Samplers
3515~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3516
3517Image and sample handles created by an HSA compatible runtime (see
3518:ref:`amdgpu-os`) are 64-bit addresses of a hardware 32-byte V# and 48 byte S#
3519object respectively. In order to support the HSA ``query_sampler`` operations
3520two extra dwords are used to store the HSA BRIG enumeration values for the
3521queries that are not trivially deducible from the S# representation.
3522
3523HSA Signals
3524~~~~~~~~~~~
3525
3526HSA signal handles created by an HSA compatible runtime (see :ref:`amdgpu-os`)
3527are 64-bit addresses of a structure allocated in memory accessible from both the
3528CPU and GPU. The structure is defined by the runtime and subject to change
3529between releases. For example, see [AMD-ROCm-github]_.

3536The HSA AQL queue structure is defined by an HSA compatible runtime (see
3537:ref:`amdgpu-os`) and subject to change between releases. For example, see
3538[AMD-ROCm-github]_. For some processors it contains fields needed to implement
3539certain language features such as the flat address aperture bases. It also
3540contains fields used by CP such as managing the allocation of scratch memory.

4250Initial Kernel Execution State
4251~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4252
4253This section defines the register state that will be set up by the packet
4254processor prior to the start of execution of every wavefront. This is limited by
4255the constraints of the hardware controllers of CP/ADC/SPI.
4256
4257The order of the SGPR registers is defined, but the compiler can specify which
4258ones are actually setup in the kernel descriptor using the ``enable_sgpr_*`` bit
4259fields (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`). The register numbers used
4260for enabled registers are dense starting at SGPR0: the first enabled register is
4261SGPR0, the next enabled register is SGPR1 etc.; disabled registers do not have
4262an SGPR number.
4263
4264The initial SGPRs comprise up to 16 User SRGPs that are set by CP and apply to
4265all wavefronts of the grid. It is possible to specify more than 16 User SGPRs
4266using the ``enable_sgpr_*`` bit fields, in which case only the first 16 are
4267actually initialized. These are then immediately followed by the System SGPRs

4345The order of the VGPR registers is defined, but the compiler can specify which
4346ones are actually setup in the kernel descriptor using the ``enable_vgpr*`` bit
4347fields (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`). The register numbers used
4348for enabled registers are dense starting at VGPR0: the first enabled register is
4349VGPR0, the next enabled register is VGPR1 etc.; disabled registers do not have a
4350VGPR number.
4351
4352There are different methods used for the VGPR initial state:
4353
4354* Unless the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4355  specifies otherwise, a separate VGPR register is used per work-item ID. The
4356  VGPR register initial state for this method is defined in
4357  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-vgpr-register-set-up-order-for-unpacked-work-item-id-method-table`.
4358* If *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4359  specifies *Packed work-item IDs*, the initial value of VGPR0 register is used
4360  for all work-item IDs. The register layout for this method is defined in

4411The setting of registers is done by GPU CP/ADC/SPI hardware as follows:
4412
44131. SGPRs before the Work-Group Ids are set by CP using the 16 User Data
4414   registers.
44152. Work-group Id registers X, Y, Z are set by ADC which supports any
4416   combination including none.
44173. Scratch Wavefront Offset is set by SPI in a per wavefront basis which is why
4418   its value cannot be included with the flat scratch init value which is per
4419   queue (see :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`).
44204. The VGPRs are set by SPI which only supports specifying either (X), (X, Y)
4421   or (X, Y, Z).
44225. Flat Scratch register pair initialization is described in
4423   :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`.
4424
4425The global segment can be accessed either using buffer instructions (GFX6 which
4426has V# 64-bit address support), flat instructions (GFX7-GFX10), or global
4427instructions (GFX9-GFX10).
4428
4429If buffer operations are used, then the compiler can generate a V# with the
4430following properties:
4431
4432* base address of 0
4433* no swizzle
4434* ATC: 1 if IOMMU present (such as APU)
4435* ptr64: 1
4436* MTYPE set to support memory coherence that matches the runtime (such as CC for
4437  APU and NC for dGPU).

4441Kernel Prolog
4442~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4443
4444The compiler performs initialization in the kernel prologue depending on the
4445target and information about things like stack usage in the kernel and called
4446functions. Some of this initialization requires the compiler to request certain
4447User and System SGPRs be present in the
4448:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state` via the
4449:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`.

4468  The M0 register must be initialized with a value at least the total LDS size
4469  if the kernel may access LDS via DS or flat operations. Total LDS size is
4470  available in dispatch packet. For M0, it is also possible to use maximum
4471  possible value of LDS for given target (0x7FFF for GFX6 and 0xFFFF for
4472  GFX7-GFX8).

4481
4482If the kernel has function calls it must set up the ABI stack pointer described
4483in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-function-call-convention-non-kernel-functions` by setting
4484SGPR32 to the unswizzled scratch offset of the address past the last local

4494kernel prolog. If a frame pointer is not required then all uses of the frame
4495pointer are replaced with immediate ``0`` offsets.
4496
4497.. _amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch:
4498
4499Flat Scratch
4500++++++++++++
4501
4502There are different methods used for initializing flat scratch:
4503
4504* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4505  specifies *Does not support generic address space*:
4506
4507  Flat scratch is not supported and there is no flat scratch register pair.
4508
4509* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4510  specifies *Offset flat scratch*:
4511
4512  If the kernel or any function it calls may use flat operations to access
4513  scratch memory, the prolog code must set up the FLAT_SCRATCH register pair
4514  (FLAT_SCRATCH_LO/FLAT_SCRATCH_HI). Initialization uses Flat Scratch Init and
4515  Scratch Wavefront Offset SGPR registers (see
4516  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`):
4517
4518  1. The low word of Flat Scratch Init is the 32-bit byte offset from
4519     ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` to the base of scratch backing memory
4520     being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel dispatch. This is
4521     the same value used in the Scratch Segment Buffer V# base address.
4522
4523     CP obtains this from the runtime. (The Scratch Segment Buffer base address
4524     is ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` plus this offset.)
4525
4526     The prolog must add the value of Scratch Wavefront Offset to get the
4527     wavefront's byte scratch backing memory offset from
4528     ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID``.
4529
4530     The Scratch Wavefront Offset must also be used as an offset with Private
4531     segment address when using the Scratch Segment Buffer.
4532
4533     Since FLAT_SCRATCH_LO is in units of 256 bytes, the offset must be right
4534     shifted by 8 before moving into FLAT_SCRATCH_HI.
4535
4536     FLAT_SCRATCH_HI corresponds to SGPRn-4 on GFX7, and SGPRn-6 on GFX8 (where
4537     SGPRn is the highest numbered SGPR allocated to the wavefront).
4538     FLAT_SCRATCH_HI is multiplied by 256 (as it is in units of 256 bytes) and
4539     added to ``SH_HIDDEN_PRIVATE_BASE_VIMID`` to calculate the per wavefront
4540     FLAT SCRATCH BASE in flat memory instructions that access the scratch
4541     aperture.
4542  2. The second word of Flat Scratch Init is 32-bit byte size of a single
4543     work-items scratch memory usage.
4544
4545     CP obtains this from the runtime, and it is always a multiple of DWORD. CP
4546     checks that the value in the kernel dispatch packet Private Segment Byte
4547     Size is not larger and requests the runtime to increase the queue's scratch
4548     size if necessary.
4549
4550     CP directly loads from the kernel dispatch packet Private Segment Byte Size
4551     field and rounds up to a multiple of DWORD. Having CP load it once avoids
4552     loading it at the beginning of every wavefront.
4553
4554     The kernel prolog code must move it to FLAT_SCRATCH_LO which is SGPRn-3 on
4555     GFX7 and SGPRn-5 on GFX8. FLAT_SCRATCH_LO is used as the FLAT SCRATCH SIZE
4556     in flat memory instructions.
4557
4558* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4559  specifies *Absolute flat scratch*:
4560
4561  If the kernel or any function it calls may use flat operations to access
4562  scratch memory, the prolog code must set up the FLAT_SCRATCH register pair
4563  (FLAT_SCRATCH_LO/FLAT_SCRATCH_HI which are in SGPRn-4/SGPRn-3). Initialization
4564  uses Flat Scratch Init and Scratch Wavefront Offset SGPR registers (see
4565  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`):
4566
4567  The Flat Scratch Init is the 64-bit address of the base of scratch backing
4568  memory being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel dispatch.
4569
4570  CP obtains this from the runtime.
4571
4572  The kernel prolog must add the value of the wave's Scratch Wavefront Offset
4573  and move the result as a 64-bit value to the FLAT_SCRATCH SGPR register pair
4574  which is SGPRn-6 and SGPRn-5. It is used as the FLAT SCRATCH BASE in flat
4575  memory instructions.
4576
4577  The Scratch Wavefront Offset must also be used as an offset with Private
4578  segment address when using the Scratch Segment Buffer (see
4579  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer`).
4580
4581* If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table`
4582  specifies *Architected flat scratch*:
4583
4584  If ENABLE_PRIVATE_SEGMENT is enabled in
4585  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-compute_pgm_rsrc2-gfx6-gfx10-table` then the FLAT_SCRATCH
4586  register pair will be initialized to the 64-bit address of the base of scratch
4587  backing memory being managed by SPI for the queue executing the kernel
4588  dispatch plus the value of the wave's Scratch Wavefront Offset for use as the
4589  flat scratch base in flat memory instructions.

4593Private Segment Buffer
4594++++++++++++++++++++++
4595
4596If the *Target Properties* column of :ref:`amdgpu-processor-table` specifies
4597*Architected flat scratch* then a Private Segment Buffer is not supported.
4598Instead the flat SCRATCH instructions are used.
4599
4600Otherwise, Private Segment Buffer SGPR register is used to initialize 4 SGPRs
4601that are used as a V# to access scratch. CP uses the value provided by the
4602runtime. It is used, together with Scratch Wavefront Offset as an offset, to
4603access the private memory space using a segment address. See
4604:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`.
4605
4606The scratch V# is a four-aligned SGPR and always selected for the kernel as
4607follows:
4608
4609  - If it is known during instruction selection that there is stack usage,
4610    SGPR0-3 is reserved for use as the scratch V#.  Stack usage is assumed if
4611    optimizations are disabled (``-O0``), if stack objects already exist (for
4612    locals, etc.), or if there are any function calls.
4613
4614  - Otherwise, four high numbered SGPRs beginning at a four-aligned SGPR index
4615    are reserved for the tentative scratch V#. These will be used if it is
4616    determined that spilling is needed.
4617
4618    - If no use is made of the tentative scratch V#, then it is unreserved,
4619      and the register count is determined ignoring it.
4620    - If use is made of the tentative scratch V#, then its register numbers
4621      are shifted to the first four-aligned SGPR index after the highest one
4622      allocated by the register allocator, and all uses are updated. The
4623      register count includes them in the shifted location.
4624    - In either case, if the processor has the SGPR allocation bug, the
4625      tentative allocation is not shifted or unreserved in order to ensure
4626      the register count is higher to workaround the bug.
4627
4628    .. note::
4629
4630      This approach of using a tentative scratch V# and shifting the register
4631      numbers if used avoids having to perform register allocation a second
4632      time if the tentative V# is eliminated. This is more efficient and
4633      avoids the problem that the second register allocation may perform
4634      spilling which will fail as there is no longer a scratch V#.
4635
4636When the kernel prolog code is being emitted it is known whether the scratch V#
4637described above is actually used. If it is, the prolog code must set it up by
4638copying the Private Segment Buffer to the scratch V# registers and then adding
4639the Private Segment Wavefront Offset to the queue base address in the V#. The
4640result is a V# with a base address pointing to the beginning of the wavefront
4641scratch backing memory.
4642
4643The Private Segment Buffer is always requested, but the Private Segment
4644Wavefront Offset is only requested if it is used (see
4645:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state`).

4648
4649Memory Model
4650~~~~~~~~~~~~
4651
4652This section describes the mapping of the LLVM memory model onto AMDGPU machine
4653code (see :ref:`memmodel`).
4654
4655The AMDGPU backend supports the memory synchronization scopes specified in
4656:ref:`amdgpu-memory-scopes`.
4657
4658The code sequences used to implement the memory model specify the order of
4659instructions that a single thread must execute. The ``s_waitcnt`` and cache
4660management instructions such as ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` are defined with respect
4661to other memory instructions executed by the same thread. This allows them to be
4662moved earlier or later which can allow them to be combined with other instances
4663of the same instruction, or hoisted/sunk out of loops to improve performance.
4664Only the instructions related to the memory model are given; additional
4665``s_waitcnt`` instructions are required to ensure registers are defined before
4666being used. These may be able to be combined with the memory model ``s_waitcnt``
4667instructions as described above.
4668
4669The AMDGPU backend supports the following memory models:
4670
4671  HSA Memory Model [HSA]_
4672    The HSA memory model uses a single happens-before relation for all address
4673    spaces (see :ref:`amdgpu-address-spaces`).
4674  OpenCL Memory Model [OpenCL]_
4675    The OpenCL memory model which has separate happens-before relations for the
4676    global and local address spaces. Only a fence specifying both global and
4677    local address space, and seq_cst instructions join the relationships. Since
4678    the LLVM ``memfence`` instruction does not allow an address space to be
4679    specified the OpenCL fence has to conservatively assume both local and
4680    global address space was specified. However, optimizations can often be
4681    done to eliminate the additional ``s_waitcnt`` instructions when there are
4682    no intervening memory instructions which access the corresponding address
4683    space. The code sequences in the table indicate what can be omitted for the
4684    OpenCL memory. The target triple environment is used to determine if the
4685    source language is OpenCL (see :ref:`amdgpu-opencl`).
4686
4687``ds/flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions to local memory are termed LDS
4688operations.
4689
4690``buffer/global/flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions to global memory are
4691termed vector memory operations.
4692
4693Private address space uses ``buffer_load/store`` using the scratch V#
4694(GFX6-GFX8), or ``scratch_load/store`` (GFX9-GFX10). Since only a single thread
4695is accessing the memory, atomic memory orderings are not meaningful, and all
4696accesses are treated as non-atomic.
4697
4698Constant address space uses ``buffer/global_load`` instructions (or equivalent
4699scalar memory instructions). Since the constant address space contents do not
4700change during the execution of a kernel dispatch it is not legal to perform
4701stores, and atomic memory orderings are not meaningful, and all accesses are
4702treated as non-atomic.
4703
4704A memory synchronization scope wider than work-group is not meaningful for the
4705group (LDS) address space and is treated as work-group.
4706
4707The memory model does not support the region address space which is treated as
4708non-atomic.
4709
4710Acquire memory ordering is not meaningful on store atomic instructions and is
4711treated as non-atomic.
4712
4713Release memory ordering is not meaningful on load atomic instructions and is
4714treated a non-atomic.
4715
4716Acquire-release memory ordering is not meaningful on load or store atomic
4717instructions and is treated as acquire and release respectively.
4718
4719The memory order also adds the single thread optimization constraints defined in
4720table
4721:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-model-single-thread-optimization-constraints-table`.

4755The code sequences used to implement the memory model are defined in the

4763
4764Memory Model GFX6-GFX9
4765++++++++++++++++++++++
4766
4767For GFX6-GFX9:
4768
4769* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
4770* Each SA has multiple compute units (CU).
4771* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
4772* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same CU but may be
4773  executed by different SIMDs.
4774* Each CU has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
4775  executing on it.
4776* All LDS operations of a CU are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
4777  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
4778  execution order.
4779* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
4780  CU. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
4781  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
4782  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
4783  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
4784  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
4785  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
4786  operations performed by the same wavefront.
4787* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations and
4788  completion is reported to a wavefront in execution order. The exception is
4789  that for GFX7-GFX9 ``flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions can report out of
4790  vector memory order if they access LDS memory, and out of LDS operation order
4791  if they access global memory.
4792* The vector memory operations access a single vector L1 cache shared by all
4793  SIMDs a CU. Therefore, no special action is required for coherence between the
4794  lanes of a single wavefront, or for coherence between wavefronts in the same
4795  work-group. A ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required for coherence between
4796  wavefronts executing in different work-groups as they may be executing on
4797  different CUs.
4798* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L1 cache shared by all wavefronts
4799  on a group of CUs. The scalar and vector L1 caches are not coherent. However,
4800  scalar operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory
4801  model. See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
4802* The vector and scalar memory operations use an L2 cache shared by all CUs on
4803  the same agent.
4804* The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
4805  addresses.
4806* Each CU has a separate request queue per channel. Therefore, the vector and
4807  scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
4808  work-groups (which may be executing on different CUs) of an agent can be
4809  reordered relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0)`` is required to
4810  ensure synchronization between vector memory operations of different CUs. It
4811  ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
4812  subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
4813  requirements of acquire and release.
4814* The L2 cache can be kept coherent with other agents on some targets, or ranges
4815  of virtual addresses can be set up to bypass it to ensure system coherence.
4816
4817Scalar memory operations are only used to access memory that is proven to not
4818change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes constant
4819address space and global address space for program scope ``const`` variables.
4820Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the scalar cache to
4821ensure it is coherent with the vector caches. The scalar and vector caches are
4822invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since constant address space data
4823may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
4824:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
4825
4826The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
4827case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
4828accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
4829then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
4830return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
4831future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
4832creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
4833``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
4834
4835For kernarg backing memory:
4836
4837* CP invalidates the L1 cache at the start of each kernel dispatch.
4838* On dGPU the kernarg backing memory is allocated in host memory accessed as
4839  MTYPE UC (uncached) to avoid needing to invalidate the L2 cache. This also
4840  causes it to be treated as non-volatile and so is not invalidated by
4841  ``*_vol``.
4842* On APU the kernarg backing memory it is accessed as MTYPE CC (cache coherent)
4843  and so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other agents.
4844
4845Scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space) is accessed
4846with MTYPE NC_NV (non-coherent non-volatile). Since the private address space is
4847only accessed by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is
4848never a need to invalidate these entries from the L1 cache. Hence all cache
4849invalidates are done as ``*_vol`` to only invalidate the volatile cache lines.

6028For GFX90A:
6029
6030* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
6031* Each SA has multiple compute units (CU).
6032* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
6033* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same CU but may be
6034  executed by different SIMDs. The exception is when in tgsplit execution mode
6035  when the wavefronts may be executed by different SIMDs in different CUs.
6036* Each CU has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
6037  executing on it. The exception is when in tgsplit execution mode when no LDS
6038  is allocated as wavefronts of the same work-group can be in different CUs.
6039* All LDS operations of a CU are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
6040  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
6041  execution order.
6042* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
6043  CU. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
6044  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
6045  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
6046  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
6047  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
6048  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
6049  operations performed by the same wavefront.
6050* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations and
6051  completion is reported to a wavefront in execution order. The exception is
6052  that ``flat_load/store/atomic`` instructions can report out of vector memory
6053  order if they access LDS memory, and out of LDS operation order if they access
6054  global memory.
6055* The vector memory operations access a single vector L1 cache shared by all
6056  SIMDs a CU. Therefore:
6057
6058  * No special action is required for coherence between the lanes of a single
6059    wavefront.
6060
6061  * No special action is required for coherence between wavefronts in the same
6062    work-group since they execute on the same CU. The exception is when in
6063    tgsplit execution mode as wavefronts of the same work-group can be in
6064    different CUs and so a ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required as described in
6065    the following item.
6066
6067  * A ``buffer_wbinvl1_vol`` is required for coherence between wavefronts
6068    executing in different work-groups as they may be executing on different
6069    CUs.
6070
6071* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L1 cache shared by all wavefronts
6072  on a group of CUs. The scalar and vector L1 caches are not coherent. However,
6073  scalar operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory
6074  model. See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
6075* The vector and scalar memory operations use an L2 cache shared by all CUs on
6076  the same agent.
6077
6078  * The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
6079    addresses.
6080  * Each CU has a separate request queue per channel. Therefore, the vector and
6081    scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
6082    work-groups (which may be executing on different CUs), or the same
6083    work-group if executing in tgsplit mode, of an agent can be reordered
6084    relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure
6085    synchronization between vector memory operations of different CUs. It
6086    ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
6087    subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
6088    requirements of acquire and release.
6089  * The L2 cache of one agent can be kept coherent with other agents by using
6090    the MTYPE CC (cache-coherent) with the PTE C-bit for memory local to the L2,
6091    and MTYPE UC (uncached) with the PTE C-bit set for memory not local to the
6092    L2.
6093
6094    * Any local memory cache lines will be automatically invalidated by writes
6095      from CUs associated with other L2 caches, or writes from the CPU, due to
6096      the cache probe caused by coherent requests. Coherent requests are caused
6097      by GPU accesses to pages with the PTE C-bit set, by CPU accesses over
6098      XGMI, and by PCIe requests that are configured to be coherent requests.
6099    * XGMI accesses from the CPU to local memory may be cached on the CPU.
6100      Subsequent access from the GPU will automatically invalidate or writeback
6101      the CPU cache due to the L2 probe filter and and the PTE C-bit being set.
6102    * Since all work-groups on the same agent share the same L2, no L2
6103      invalidation or writeback is required for coherence.
6104    * Since local memory reads and writes of work-groups in different agents
6105      access memory using MTYPE CC, no L2 invalidate or writeback is required
6106      for coherence. MTYPE CC causes write through to DRAM and local reads to be
6107      invalidated by remote writes with with the PTE C-bit.
6108    * Since remote memory reads and writes of work-groups in different agents
6109      access memory using MTYPE UC, no L2 invalidate or writeback is required
6110      for coherence. MTYPE UC causes direct accesses to DRAM.
6111
6112  * PCIe access from the GPU to the CPU memory is kept coherent by using the
6113    MTYPE UC (uncached) which bypasses the L2.
6114
6115Scalar memory operations are only used to access memory that is proven to not
6116change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes constant
6117address space and global address space for program scope ``const`` variables.
6118Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the scalar cache to
6119ensure it is coherent with the vector caches. The scalar and vector caches are
6120invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since constant address space data
6121may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
6122:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
6123
6124The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
6125case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
6126accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
6127then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
6128return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
6129future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
6130creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
6131``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
6132
6133For kernarg backing memory:
6134
6135* CP invalidates the L1 cache at the start of each kernel dispatch.
6136* On dGPU over XGMI or PCIe the kernarg backing memory is allocated in host
6137  memory accessed as MTYPE UC (uncached) to avoid needing to invalidate the L2
6138  cache. This also causes it to be treated as non-volatile and so is not
6139  invalidated by ``*_vol``.
6140* On APU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as MTYPE CC (cache coherent) and
6141  so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other agents.
6142
6143Scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space) is accessed
6144with MTYPE NC_NV (non-coherent non-volatile). Since the private address space is
6145only accessed by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is
6146never a need to invalidate these entries from the L1 cache. Hence all cache
6147invalidates are done as ``*_vol`` to only invalidate the volatile cache lines.

8313Memory Model GFX10
8314++++++++++++++++++
8315
8316For GFX10:
8317
8318* Each agent has multiple shader arrays (SA).
8319* Each SA has multiple work-group processors (WGP).
8320* Each WGP has multiple compute units (CU).
8321* Each CU has multiple SIMDs that execute wavefronts.
8322* The wavefronts for a single work-group are executed in the same
8323  WGP. In CU wavefront execution mode the wavefronts may be executed by
8324  different SIMDs in the same CU. In WGP wavefront execution mode the
8325  wavefronts may be executed by different SIMDs in different CUs in the same
8326  WGP.
8327* Each WGP has a single LDS memory shared by the wavefronts of the work-groups
8328  executing on it.
8329* All LDS operations of a WGP are performed as wavefront wide operations in a
8330  global order and involve no caching. Completion is reported to a wavefront in
8331  execution order.
8332* The LDS memory has multiple request queues shared by the SIMDs of a
8333  WGP. Therefore, the LDS operations performed by different wavefronts of a
8334  work-group can be reordered relative to each other, which can result in
8335  reordering the visibility of vector memory operations with respect to LDS
8336  operations of other wavefronts in the same work-group. A ``s_waitcnt
8337  lgkmcnt(0)`` is required to ensure synchronization between LDS operations and
8338  vector memory operations between wavefronts of a work-group, but not between
8339  operations performed by the same wavefront.
8340* The vector memory operations are performed as wavefront wide operations.
8341  Completion of load/store/sample operations are reported to a wavefront in
8342  execution order of other load/store/sample operations performed by that
8343  wavefront.
8344* The vector memory operations access a vector L0 cache. There is a single L0
8345  cache per CU. Each SIMD of a CU accesses the same L0 cache. Therefore, no
8346  special action is required for coherence between the lanes of a single
8347  wavefront. However, a ``buffer_gl0_inv`` is required for coherence between
8348  wavefronts executing in the same work-group as they may be executing on SIMDs
8349  of different CUs that access different L0s. A ``buffer_gl0_inv`` is also
8350  required for coherence between wavefronts executing in different work-groups
8351  as they may be executing on different WGPs.
8352* The scalar memory operations access a scalar L0 cache shared by all wavefronts
8353  on a WGP. The scalar and vector L0 caches are not coherent. However, scalar
8354  operations are used in a restricted way so do not impact the memory model. See
8355  :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
8356* The vector and scalar memory L0 caches use an L1 cache shared by all WGPs on
8357  the same SA. Therefore, no special action is required for coherence between
8358  the wavefronts of a single work-group. However, a ``buffer_gl1_inv`` is
8359  required for coherence between wavefronts executing in different work-groups
8360  as they may be executing on different SAs that access different L1s.
8361* The L1 caches have independent quadrants to service disjoint ranges of virtual
8362  addresses.
8363* Each L0 cache has a separate request queue per L1 quadrant. Therefore, the
8364  vector and scalar memory operations performed by different wavefronts, whether
8365  executing in the same or different work-groups (which may be executing on
8366  different CUs accessing different L0s), can be reordered relative to each
8367  other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0) & vscnt(0)`` is required to ensure
8368  synchronization between vector memory operations of different wavefronts. It
8369  ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed before executing a
8370  subsequent vector memory or LDS operation and so can be used to meet the
8371  requirements of acquire, release and sequential consistency.
8372* The L1 caches use an L2 cache shared by all SAs on the same agent.
8373* The L2 cache has independent channels to service disjoint ranges of virtual
8374  addresses.
8375* Each L1 quadrant of a single SA accesses a different L2 channel. Each L1
8376  quadrant has a separate request queue per L2 channel. Therefore, the vector
8377  and scalar memory operations performed by wavefronts executing in different
8378  work-groups (which may be executing on different SAs) of an agent can be
8379  reordered relative to each other. A ``s_waitcnt vmcnt(0) & vscnt(0)`` is
8380  required to ensure synchronization between vector memory operations of
8381  different SAs. It ensures a previous vector memory operation has completed
8382  before executing a subsequent vector memory and so can be used to meet the
8383  requirements of acquire, release and sequential consistency.
8384* The L2 cache can be kept coherent with other agents on some targets, or ranges
8385  of virtual addresses can be set up to bypass it to ensure system coherence.
8386
8387Scalar memory operations are only used to access memory that is proven to not
8388change during the execution of the kernel dispatch. This includes constant
8389address space and global address space for program scope ``const`` variables.
8390Therefore, the kernel machine code does not have to maintain the scalar cache to
8391ensure it is coherent with the vector caches. The scalar and vector caches are
8392invalidated between kernel dispatches by CP since constant address space data
8393may change between kernel dispatch executions. See
8394:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-memory-spaces`.
8395
8396The one exception is if scalar writes are used to spill SGPR registers. In this
8397case the AMDGPU backend ensures the memory location used to spill is never
8398accessed by vector memory operations at the same time. If scalar writes are used
8399then a ``s_dcache_wb`` is inserted before the ``s_endpgm`` and before a function
8400return since the locations may be used for vector memory instructions by a
8401future wavefront that uses the same scratch area, or a function call that
8402creates a frame at the same address, respectively. There is no need for a
8403``s_dcache_inv`` as all scalar writes are write-before-read in the same thread.
8404
8405For kernarg backing memory:
8406
8407* CP invalidates the L0 and L1 caches at the start of each kernel dispatch.
8408* On dGPU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as MTYPE UC (uncached) to avoid
8409  needing to invalidate the L2 cache.
8410* On APU the kernarg backing memory is accessed as MTYPE CC (cache coherent) and
8411  so the L2 cache will be coherent with the CPU and other agents.
8412
8413Scratch backing memory (which is used for the private address space) is accessed
8414with MTYPE NC (non-coherent). Since the private address space is only accessed
8415by a single thread, and is always write-before-read, there is never a need to
8416invalidate these entries from the L0 or L1 caches.
8417
8418Wavefronts are executed in native mode with in-order reporting of loads and
8419sample instructions. In this mode vmcnt reports completion of load, atomic with
8420return and sample instructions in order, and the vscnt reports the completion of
8421store and atomic without return in order. See ``MEM_ORDERED`` field in
8422:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-compute_pgm_rsrc1-gfx6-gfx10-table`.
8423
8424Wavefronts can be executed in WGP or CU wavefront execution mode:
8425
8426* In WGP wavefront execution mode the wavefronts of a work-group are executed
8427  on the SIMDs of both CUs of the WGP. Therefore, explicit management of the per
8428  CU L0 caches is required for work-group synchronization. Also accesses to L1
8429  at work-group scope need to be explicitly ordered as the accesses from
8430  different CUs are not ordered.
8431* In CU wavefront execution mode the wavefronts of a work-group are executed on
8432  the SIMDs of a single CU of the WGP. Therefore, all global memory access by
8433  the work-group access the same L0 which in turn ensures L1 accesses are
8434  ordered and so do not require explicit management of the caches for
8435  work-group synchronization.

10517.. note::
10518
10519  This section is currently incomplete and has inaccuracies. It is WIP that will
10520  be updated as information is determined.
10521
10522See :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-address-space-identifier` for information on swizzled
10523addresses. Unswizzled addresses are normal linear addresses.

10527Kernel Functions
10528++++++++++++++++
10529
10530This section describes the call convention ABI for the outer kernel function.
10531
10532See :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-initial-kernel-execution-state` for the kernel call
10533convention.
10534
10535The following is not part of the AMDGPU kernel calling convention but describes
10536how the AMDGPU implements function calls:
10537
105381.  Clang decides the kernarg layout to match the *HSA Programmer's Language
10539    Reference* [HSA]_.
10540
10541    - All structs are passed directly.
10542    - Lambda values are passed *TBA*.
10543
10544    .. TODO::
10545
10546      - Does this really follow HSA rules? Or are structs >16 bytes passed
10547        by-value struct?
10548      - What is ABI for lambda values?
10549
105504.  The kernel performs certain setup in its prolog, as described in
10551    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog`.

10554
10555Non-Kernel Functions
10556++++++++++++++++++++
10557
10558This section describes the call convention ABI for functions other than the
10559outer kernel function.
10560
10561If a kernel has function calls then scratch is always allocated and used for
10562the call stack which grows from low address to high address using the swizzled
10563scratch address space.
10564
10565On entry to a function:
10566
105671.  SGPR0-3 contain a V# with the following properties (see
10568    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-private-segment-buffer`):
10569
10570    * Base address pointing to the beginning of the wavefront scratch backing
10571      memory.
10572    * Swizzled with dword element size and stride of wavefront size elements.
10573
105742.  The FLAT_SCRATCH register pair is setup. See
10575    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-flat-scratch`.
105763.  GFX6-GFX8: M0 register set to the size of LDS in bytes. See
10577    :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-prolog-m0`.
105784.  The EXEC register is set to the lanes active on entry to the function.
105795.  MODE register: *TBD*
105806.  VGPR0-31 and SGPR4-29 are used to pass function input arguments as described
10581    below.
105827.  SGPR30-31 return address (RA). The code address that the function must
10583    return to when it completes. The value is undefined if the function is *no
10584    return*.
105858.  SGPR32 is used for the stack pointer (SP). It is an unswizzled scratch
10586    offset relative to the beginning of the wavefront scratch backing memory.
10587
10588    The unswizzled SP can be used with buffer instructions as an unswizzled SGPR
10589    offset with the scratch V# in SGPR0-3 to access the stack in a swizzled
10590    manner.
10591
10592    The unswizzled SP value can be converted into the swizzled SP value by:
10593
10594      | swizzled SP = unswizzled SP / wavefront size
10595
10596    This may be used to obtain the private address space address of stack
10597    objects and to convert this address to a flat address by adding the flat
10598    scratch aperture base address.
10599
10600    The swizzled SP value is always 4 bytes aligned for the ``r600``
10601    architecture and 16 byte aligned for the ``amdgcn`` architecture.
10602
10603    .. note::
10604
10605      The ``amdgcn`` value is selected to avoid dynamic stack alignment for the
10606      OpenCL language which has the largest base type defined as 16 bytes.
10607
10608    On entry, the swizzled SP value is the address of the first function
10609    argument passed on the stack. Other stack passed arguments are positive
10610    offsets from the entry swizzled SP value.
10611
10612    The function may use positive offsets beyond the last stack passed argument
10613    for stack allocated local variables and register spill slots. If necessary,
10614    the function may align these to greater alignment than 16 bytes. After these
10615    the function may dynamically allocate space for such things as runtime sized
10616    ``alloca`` local allocations.
10617
10618    If the function calls another function, it will place any stack allocated
10619    arguments after the last local allocation and adjust SGPR32 to the address
10620    after the last local allocation.
10621
106229.  All other registers are unspecified.
1062310. Any necessary ``s_waitcnt`` has been performed to ensure memory is available
10624    to the function.
10625
10626On exit from a function:
10627
106281.  VGPR0-31 and SGPR4-29 are used to pass function result arguments as
10629    described below. Any registers used are considered clobbered registers.
106302.  The following registers are preserved and have the same value as on entry:
10631
10632    * FLAT_SCRATCH
10633    * EXEC
10634    * GFX6-GFX8: M0
10635    * All SGPR registers except the clobbered registers of SGPR4-31.
10636    * VGPR40-47
10637    * VGPR56-63
10638    * VGPR72-79
10639    * VGPR88-95
10640    * VGPR104-111
10641    * VGPR120-127
10642    * VGPR136-143
10643    * VGPR152-159
10644    * VGPR168-175
10645    * VGPR184-191
10646    * VGPR200-207
10647    * VGPR216-223
10648    * VGPR232-239
10649    * VGPR248-255
10650
10651        .. note::
10652
10653          Except the argument registers, the VGPRs clobbered and the preserved
10654          registers are intermixed at regular intervals in order to keep a
10655          similar ratio independent of the number of allocated VGPRs.
10656
10657    * Lanes of all VGPRs that are inactive at the call site.
10658
10659      For the AMDGPU backend, an inter-procedural register allocation (IPRA)
10660      optimization may mark some of clobbered SGPR and VGPR registers as
10661      preserved if it can be determined that the called function does not change
10662      their value.
10663
106642.  The PC is set to the RA provided on entry.
106653.  MODE register: *TBD*.
106664.  All other registers are clobbered.
106675.  Any necessary ``s_waitcnt`` has been performed to ensure memory accessed by
10668    function is available to the caller.
10669
10670.. TODO::
10671
10672  - On gfx908 are all ACC registers clobbered?
10673
10674  - How are function results returned? The address of structured types is passed
10675    by reference, but what about other types?
10676
10677The function input arguments are made up of the formal arguments explicitly
10678declared by the source language function plus the implicit input arguments used
10679by the implementation.
10680
10681The source language input arguments are:
10682
106831. Any source language implicit ``this`` or ``self`` argument comes first as a
10684   pointer type.
106852. Followed by the function formal arguments in left to right source order.
10686
10687The source language result arguments are:
10688
106891. The function result argument.
10690
10691The source language input or result struct type arguments that are less than or
10692equal to 16 bytes, are decomposed recursively into their base type fields, and
10693each field is passed as if a separate argument. For input arguments, if the
10694called function requires the struct to be in memory, for example because its
10695address is taken, then the function body is responsible for allocating a stack
10696location and copying the field arguments into it. Clang terms this *direct
10697struct*.
10698
10699The source language input struct type arguments that are greater than 16 bytes,
10700are passed by reference. The caller is responsible for allocating a stack
10701location to make a copy of the struct value and pass the address as the input
10702argument. The called function is responsible to perform the dereference when
10703accessing the input argument. Clang terms this *by-value struct*.
10704
10705A source language result struct type argument that is greater than 16 bytes, is
10706returned by reference. The caller is responsible for allocating a stack location
10707to hold the result value and passes the address as the last input argument
10708(before the implicit input arguments). In this case there are no result
10709arguments. The called function is responsible to perform the dereference when
10710storing the result value. Clang terms this *structured return (sret)*.
10711
10712*TODO: correct the ``sret`` definition.*
10713
10714.. TODO::
10715
10716  Is this definition correct? Or is ``sret`` only used if passing in registers, and
10717  pass as non-decomposed struct as stack argument? Or something else? Is the
10718  memory location in the caller stack frame, or a stack memory argument and so
10719  no address is passed as the caller can directly write to the argument stack
10720  location? But then the stack location is still live after return. If an
10721  argument stack location is it the first stack argument or the last one?
10722
10723Lambda argument types are treated as struct types with an implementation defined
10724set of fields.
10725
10726.. TODO::
10727
10728  Need to specify the ABI for lambda types for AMDGPU.
10729
10730For AMDGPU backend all source language arguments (including the decomposed
10731struct type arguments) are passed in VGPRs unless marked ``inreg`` in which case
10732they are passed in SGPRs.
10733
10734The AMDGPU backend walks the function call graph from the leaves to determine
10735which implicit input arguments are used, propagating to each caller of the
10736function. The used implicit arguments are appended to the function arguments
10737after the source language arguments in the following order:
10738
10739.. TODO::
10740
10741  Is recursion or external functions supported?

107431.  Work-Item ID (1 VGPR)
10744
10745    The X, Y and Z work-item ID are packed into a single VGRP with the following
10746    layout. Only fields actually used by the function are set. The other bits
10747    are undefined.

10801    The value is computed by adding an offset to Kernarg Segment Ptr to get the

10804The input and result arguments are assigned in order in the following manner:
10805
10806.. note::
10807
10808  There are likely some errors and omissions in the following description that
10809  need correction.
10810
10811  .. TODO::
10812
10813    Check the Clang source code to decipher how function arguments and return
10814    results are handled. Also see the AMDGPU specific values used.
10815
10816* VGPR arguments are assigned to consecutive VGPRs starting at VGPR0 up to
10817  VGPR31.
10818
10819  If there are more arguments than will fit in these registers, the remaining
10820  arguments are allocated on the stack in order on naturally aligned
10821  addresses.
10822
10823  .. TODO::
10824
10825    How are overly aligned structures allocated on the stack?
10826
10827* SGPR arguments are assigned to consecutive SGPRs starting at SGPR0 up to
10828  SGPR29.
10829
10830  If there are more arguments than will fit in these registers, the remaining
10831  arguments are allocated on the stack in order on naturally aligned
10832  addresses.
10833
10834Note that decomposed struct type arguments may have some fields passed in
10835registers and some in memory.
10836
10837.. TODO::
10838
10839  So, a struct which can pass some fields as decomposed register arguments, will
10840  pass the rest as decomposed stack elements? But an argument that will not start
10841  in registers will not be decomposed and will be passed as a non-decomposed
10842  stack value?
10843
10844The following is not part of the AMDGPU function calling convention but
10845describes how the AMDGPU implements function calls:
10846
108471.  SGPR33 is used as a frame pointer (FP) if necessary. Like the SP it is an
10848    unswizzled scratch address. It is only needed if runtime sized ``alloca``
10849    are used, or for the reasons defined in ``SIFrameLowering``.
108502.  Runtime stack alignment is supported. SGPR34 is used as a base pointer (BP)
10851    to access the incoming stack arguments in the function. The BP is needed
10852    only when the function requires the runtime stack alignment.
10853
108543.  Allocating SGPR arguments on the stack are not supported.
10855
108564.  No CFI is currently generated. See
10857    :ref:`amdgpu-dwarf-call-frame-information`.
10858
10859    .. note::
10860
10861      CFI will be generated that defines the CFA as the unswizzled address
10862      relative to the wave scratch base in the unswizzled private address space
10863      of the lowest address stack allocated local variable.
10864
10865      ``DW_AT_frame_base`` will be defined as the swizzled address in the
10866      swizzled private address space by dividing the CFA by the wavefront size
10867      (since CFA is always at least dword aligned which matches the scratch
10868      swizzle element size).
10869
10870      If no dynamic stack alignment was performed, the stack allocated arguments
10871      are accessed as negative offsets relative to ``DW_AT_frame_base``, and the
10872      local variables and register spill slots are accessed as positive offsets
10873      relative to ``DW_AT_frame_base``.
10874
108755.  Function argument passing is implemented by copying the input physical
10876    registers to virtual registers on entry. The register allocator can spill if
10877    necessary. These are copied back to physical registers at call sites. The
10878    net effect is that each function call can have these values in entirely
10879    distinct locations. The IPRA can help avoid shuffling argument registers.
108806.  Call sites are implemented by setting up the arguments at positive offsets
10881    from SP. Then SP is incremented to account for the known frame size before
10882    the call and decremented after the call.
10883
10884    .. note::
10885
10886      The CFI will reflect the changed calculation needed to compute the CFA
10887      from SP.
10888
108897.  4 byte spill slots are used in the stack frame. One slot is allocated for an
10890    emergency spill slot. Buffer instructions are used for stack accesses and
10891    not the ``flat_scratch`` instruction.
10892
10893    .. TODO::
10894
10895      Explain when the emergency spill slot is used.
10896
10897.. TODO::
10898
10899  Possible broken issues:
10900
10901  - Stack arguments must be aligned to required alignment.
10902  - Stack is aligned to max(16, max formal argument alignment)
10903  - Direct argument < 64 bits should check register budget.
10904  - Register budget calculation should respect ``inreg`` for SGPR.
10905  - SGPR overflow is not handled.
10906  - struct with 1 member unpeeling is not checking size of member.
10907  - ``sret`` is after ``this`` pointer.
10908  - Caller is not implementing stack realignment: need an extra pointer.
10909  - Should say AMDGPU passes FP rather than SP.
10910  - Should CFI define CFA as address of locals or arguments. Difference is
10911    apparent when have implemented dynamic alignment.
10912  - If ``SCRATCH`` instruction could allow negative offsets, then can make FP be
10913    highest address of stack frame and use negative offset for locals. Would
10914    allow SP to be the same as FP and could support signal-handler-like as now
10915    have a real SP for the top of the stack.
10916  - How is ``sret`` passed on the stack? In argument stack area? Can it overlay
10917    arguments?

10929
10930.. note::
10931
10932  The metadata is currently in development and is subject to major
10933  changes. Only the current version is supported. *When this document
10934  was generated the version was 2.6.*
10935
10936Code object metadata is specified by the ``NT_AMDGPU_METADATA`` note
10937record (see :ref:`amdgpu-note-records-v3-v4`).
10938
10939The metadata is represented as Message Pack formatted binary data (see
10940[MsgPack]_). The top level is a Message Pack map that includes the keys
10941defined in table :ref:`amdgpu-amdpal-code-object-metadata-map-table`
10942and referenced tables.
10943
10944Additional information can be added to the maps. To avoid conflicts, any
10945key names should be prefixed by "*vendor-name*." where ``vendor-name``
10946can be the name of the vendor and specific vendor tool that generates the
10947information. The prefix is abbreviated to simply "." when it appears
10948within a map that has been added by the same *vendor-name*.

11183User Data
11184+++++++++
11185
11186Each hardware stage has a set of 32-bit physical SPI *user data registers*
11187(either 16 or 32 based on graphics IP and the stage) which can be
11188written from a command buffer and then loaded into SGPRs when waves are
11189launched via a subsequent dispatch or draw operation. This is the way
11190most arguments are passed from the application/runtime to a hardware
11191shader.
11192
11193PAL abstracts this functionality by exposing a set of 128 *user data
11194entries* per pipeline a client can use to pass arguments from a command
11195buffer to one or more shaders in that pipeline. The ELF code object must
11196specify a mapping from virtualized *user data entries* to physical *user
11197data registers*, and PAL is responsible for implementing that mapping,
11198including spilling overflow *user data entries* to memory if needed.
11199
11200Since the *user data registers* are GRBM-accessible SPI registers, this
11201mapping is actually embedded in the ``.registers`` metadata entry. For
11202most registers, the value in that map is a literal 32-bit value that
11203should be written to the register by the driver. However, when the
11204register is a *user data register* (any USER_DATA register e.g.,
11205SPI_SHADER_USER_DATA_PS_5), the value is instead an encoding that tells
11206the driver to write either a *user data entry* value or one of several
11207driver-internal values to the register. This encoding is described in
11208the following table:
11209
11210.. note::
11211
11212  Currently, *user data registers* 0 and 1 (e.g., SPI_SHADER_USER_DATA_PS_0,
11213  and SPI_SHADER_USER_DATA_PS_1) are reserved. *User data register* 0 must
11214  always be programmed to the address of the GlobalTable, and *user data
11215  register* 1 must always be programmed to the address of the PerShaderTable.

11235                                    reference the draw index in the vertex shader. Only supported by the first
11236                                    stage in a graphics pipeline.
11237     0x10000004  BaseInstance       Instance offset (32-bit unsigned integer). Only supported by the first stage in
11238                                    a graphics pipeline.
11239     0x10000005  DrawIndex          Draw index (32-bit unsigned integer). Only supported by the first stage in a
11240                                    graphics pipeline.
11241     0x10000006  Workgroup          Thread group count (32-bit unsigned integer). Low half of a 64-bit address of
11242                                    a buffer containing the grid dimensions for a Compute dispatch operation. The
11243                                    high half of the address is stored in the next sequential user-SGPR. Only
11244                                    supported by compute pipelines.
11245     0x1000000A  EsGsLdsSize        Indicates that PAL will program this user-SGPR to contain the amount of LDS
11246                                    space used for the ES/GS pseudo-ring-buffer for passing data between shader
11247                                    stages.
11248     0x1000000B  ViewId             View id (32-bit unsigned integer) identifies a view of graphic
11249                                    pipeline instancing.
11250     0x1000000C  StreamOutTable     32-bit pointer to GPU memory containing the stream out target SRD table.  This
11251                                    can only appear for one shader stage per pipeline.
11252     0x1000000D  PerShaderPerfData  32-bit pointer to GPU memory containing the per-shader performance data buffer.
11253     0x1000000F  VertexBufferTable  32-bit pointer to GPU memory containing the vertex buffer SRD table.  This can
11254                                    only appear for one shader stage per pipeline.
11255     0x10000010  UavExportTable     32-bit pointer to GPU memory containing the UAV export SRD table.  This can
11256                                    only appear for one shader stage per pipeline (PS). These replace color targets
11257                                    and are completely separate from any UAVs used by the shader. This is optional,
11258                                    and only used by the PS when UAV exports are used to replace color-target
11259                                    exports to optimize specific shaders.
11260     0x10000011  NggCullingData     64-bit pointer to GPU memory containing the hardware register data needed by
11261                                    some NGG pipelines to perform culling.  This value contains the address of the
11262                                    first of two consecutive registers which provide the full GPU address.
11263     0x10000015  FetchShaderPtr     64-bit pointer to GPU memory containing the fetch shader subroutine.

11271Low 32 bits of the GPU address for an optional buffer in the ``.data``
11272section of the ELF. The high 32 bits of the address match the high 32 bits
11273of the shader's program counter.
11274
11275The buffer can be anything the shader compiler needs it for, and
11276allows each shader to have its own region of the ``.data`` section.
11277Typically, this could be a table of buffer SRD's and the data pointed to
11278by the buffer SRD's, but it could be a flat-address region of memory as
11279well. Its layout and usage are defined by the shader compiler.
11280
11281Each shader's table in the ``.data`` section is referenced by the symbol
11282``_amdgpu_``\ *xs*\ ``_shdr_intrl_data``  where *xs* corresponds with the
11283hardware shader stage the data is for. E.g.,
11284``_amdgpu_cs_shdr_intrl_data`` for the compute shader hardware stage.

11290
11291It is possible for a hardware shader to need access to more *user data
11292entries* than there are slots available in user data registers for one
11293or more hardware shader stages. In that case, the PAL runtime expects
11294the necessary *user data entries* to be spilled to GPU memory and use
11295one user data register to point to the spilled user data memory. The
11296value of the *user data entry* must then represent the location where
11297a shader expects to read the low 32-bits of the table's GPU virtual
11298address. The *spill table* itself represents a set of 32-bit values
11299managed by the PAL runtime in GPU-accessible memory that can be made
11300indirectly accessible to a hardware shader.

11379This section describes general syntax for instructions and operands.
11380
11381Instructions
11382~~~~~~~~~~~~
11383
11384An instruction has the following :doc:`syntax<AMDGPUInstructionSyntax>`:
11385
11386  | ``<``\ *opcode*\ ``> <``\ *operand0*\ ``>, <``\ *operand1*\ ``>,...
11387    <``\ *modifier0*\ ``> <``\ *modifier1*\ ``>...``
11388
11389:doc:`Operands<AMDGPUOperandSyntax>` are comma-separated while
11390:doc:`modifiers<AMDGPUModifierSyntax>` are space-separated.
11391
11392The order of operands and modifiers is fixed.
11393Most modifiers are optional and may be omitted.

11571For vector ALU instruction opcodes (VOP1, VOP2, VOP3, VOPC, VOP_DPP, VOP_SDWA),
11572the assembler will automatically use optimal encoding based on its operands. To
11573force specific encoding, one can add a suffix to the opcode of the instruction:
11574
11575* _e32 for 32-bit VOP1/VOP2/VOPC
11576* _e64 for 64-bit VOP3

11697+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
11698
11699
11700*major*, *minor*, and *stepping* are all integers that describe the instruction
11701set architecture (ISA) version of the assembly program.
11702
11703*vendor* and *arch* are quoted strings. *vendor* should always be equal to
11704"AMD" and *arch* should always be equal to "AMDGPU".
11705
11706By default, the assembler will derive the ISA version, *vendor*, and *arch*
11707from the value of the -mcpu option that is passed to the assembler.

11716STT_AMDGPU_HSA_KERNEL.
11717
11718.amd_kernel_code_t
11719++++++++++++++++++
11720
11721This directive marks the beginning of a list of key / value pairs that are used
11722to specify the amd_kernel_code_t object that will be emitted by the assembler.
11723The list must be terminated by the *.end_amd_kernel_code_t* directive. For any
11724amd_kernel_code_t values that are unspecified a default value will be used. The
11725default value for all keys is 0, with the following exceptions:
11726
11727- *amd_code_version_major* defaults to 1.
11728- *amd_kernel_code_version_minor* defaults to 2.
11729- *amd_machine_kind* defaults to 1.
11730- *amd_machine_version_major*, *machine_version_minor*, and
11731  *amd_machine_version_stepping* are derived from the value of the -mcpu option
11732  that is passed to the assembler.
11733- *kernel_code_entry_byte_offset* defaults to 256.
11734- *wavefront_size* defaults 6 for all targets before GFX10. For GFX10 onwards
11735  defaults to 6 if target feature ``wavefrontsize64`` is enabled, otherwise 5.
11736  Note that wavefront size is specified as a power of two, so a value of **n**
11737  means a size of 2^ **n**.
11738- *call_convention* defaults to -1.
11739- *kernarg_segment_alignment*, *group_segment_alignment*, and
11740  *private_segment_alignment* default to 4. Note that alignments are specified
11741  as a power of 2, so a value of **n** means an alignment of 2^ **n**.
11742- *enable_tg_split* defaults to 1 if target feature ``tgsplit`` is enabled for
11743  GFX90A onwards.
11744- *enable_wgp_mode* defaults to 1 if target feature ``cumode`` is disabled for
11745  GFX10 onwards.
11746- *enable_mem_ordered* defaults to 1 for GFX10 onwards.
11747
11748The *.amd_kernel_code_t* directive must be placed immediately after the

11877Optional directive which declares the ``<target-triple>-<target-id>`` supported
11878by the containing assembler source file. Used by the assembler to validate
11879command-line options such as ``-triple``, ``-mcpu``, and
11880``--offload-arch=<target-id>``. A non-canonical target ID is allowed. See

11891Creates a correctly aligned AMDHSA kernel descriptor and a symbol,
11892``<name>.kd``, in the current location of the current section. Only valid when
11893the OS is ``amdhsa``. ``<name>`` must be a symbol that labels the first
11894instruction to execute, and does not need to be previously defined.
11895
11896Marks the beginning of a list of directives used to generate the bytes of a
11897kernel descriptor, as described in :ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`.
11898Directives which may appear in this list are described in
11899:ref:`amdhsa-kernel-directives-table`. Directives may appear in any order, must
11900be valid for the target being assembled for, and cannot be repeated. Directives
11901support the range of values specified by the field they reference in
11902:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-kernel-descriptor`. If a directive is not specified, it is
11903assumed to have its default value, unless it is marked as "Required", in which

12087If an assembly source file contains multiple kernels and/or functions, the
12088:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-assembler-symbol-next_free_vgpr` and
12089:ref:`amdgpu-amdhsa-assembler-symbol-next_free_sgpr` symbols may be reset using
12090the ``.set <symbol>, <expression>`` directive. For example, in the case of two
12091kernels, where ``function1`` is only called from ``kernel1`` it is sufficient
12092to group the function with the kernel that calls it and reset the symbols
12093between the two connected components:

12157These symbols cannot identify connected components in order to automatically
12158track the usage for each kernel. However, in some cases careful organization of
12159the kernels and functions in the source file means there is minimal additional
12160effort required to accurately calculate GPR usage.
