This change refines the verifier for `vector.load` and `vector.store` to disallow the use of vectors with higher rank than the source or destination memref. For example, the following is now rejected: ```mlir %0 = vector.load %src[%c0] : memref<?xi8>, vector<16x16xi8> vector.store %vec, %dest[%c0] : memref<?xi8>, vector<16x16xi8> ``` This pattern was previously used in SME end-to-end tests and "happened" to work by implicitly assuming row-major memory layout. However, there is no guarantee that such an assumption will always hold, and we should avoid relying on it unless it can be enforced deterministically. Notably, production ArmSME lowering pipelines do not rely on this behavior. Instead, the expected usage (illustrated here with scalable vector syntax) would be: ```mlir %0 = vector.load %src[%c0, %c0] : memref<?x?xi8>, vector<[16]x[16]xi8> ``` This PR updates the verifier accordingly and adjusts all affected tests. These tests are either removed (if no longer relevant) or updated to use memrefs with appropriately matching rank.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
