heterocl.tvm.module module¶
Container of compiled functions of TVM.
-
class
Module
(handle)[source]¶ Bases:
heterocl.tvm._ffi.function.ModuleBase
Module container of all TVM generated functions
-
export_library
(file_name, fcompile=None, **kwargs)[source]¶ Export the module and its imported device code one library.
This function only works on host llvm modules. It will pack all the imported modules
- Parameters
file_name (str) – The name of the shared library.
fcompile (function(target, file_list, kwargs), optional) – Compilation function to use create dynamic library. If fcompile has attribute object_format, will compile host library to that format. Otherwise, will use default format “o”.
kwargs (dict, optiona;) – Additional arguments passed to fcompile
-
imported_modules
¶ Get imported modules
- Returns
modules – The module
- Return type
list of Module
-
save
(file_name, fmt='')[source]¶ Save the module to file.
This do not save the dependent device modules. See also export_shared
See also
Module.export_library()
export the module to shared library.
-
time_evaluator
(func_name, ctx, number, repeat=1)[source]¶ Get an evaluator that measures time cost of running function.
- Parameters
func_name (str) – The name of the function in the module.
ctx (TVMContext) – The context we should run this function on.
number (int) – The number of steps used in measuring each time interval
repeat (int, optional) – Number of times to run the timer measurement If repeat equals 3, then we will get 3 numbers in the ProfileResult.
Note
The function will be invoked repeat * number + 1 times, with the first call discarded in case there is lazy initialization.
- Returns
ftimer – The function that takes same argument as func and return a float representing seconds per function call.
- Return type
Function
-
type_key
¶ Get type key of the module.
-
-
class
ProfileResult
(mean, results)¶ Bases:
tuple
-
mean
¶ Alias for field number 0
-
results
¶ Alias for field number 1
-
-
enabled
(target)[source]¶ Whether module runtime is enabled for target
- Parameters
target (str) – The target device type.
- Returns
enabled – Whether runtime is enabled.
- Return type
Examples
The following code checks if gpu is enabled.
>>> tvm.module.enabled("gpu")
-
system_lib
()[source]¶ Get system-wide library module singleton.
System lib is a global module that contains self register functions in startup. Unlike normal dso modules which need to be loaded explicitly. It is useful in environments where dynamic loading api like dlopen is banned.
To build system lib function, simply specify target option
`llvm --system-lib`
The system lib will be available as long as the result code is linked by the program.The system lib is intended to be linked and loaded during the entire life-cyle of the program. If you want dynamic loading features, use dso modules instead.
- Returns
module – The system-wide library module.
- Return type
