|
This example demonstrates the use of Programmatic Dependent Launch (PDL) using
|
|
CuTe DSL.
|
|
|
|
PDL is a mechanism which allows for overlapping execution of back-to-back kernels
|
|
within the same stream.
|
|
For example, consider the following two elementwise add operations, where the second
|
|
operation's first operand is the result of the first operation. While performing
|
|
``w = u + v`` we will load u and v, add them, and then store the result. Once we
|
|
have finished loading data, we are no longer utilizing the read bandwidth.
|
|
To effectively utilize the read bandwidth, we can start loading ``x``
|
|
immediately upon finishing reading. This is what PDL enables us to do.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
w = u + v
|
|
y = w + x
|
|
|
|
To enable PDL, we need to do two things:
|
|
|
|
1. Insert the ``griddepcontrol.launch_dependents`` and ``griddepcontrol.wait`` instructions in the kernel.
|
|
2. Set the PDL launch attribute when launching the kernel.
|
|
|
|
The ``griddepcontrol.launch_dependents`` and ``griddepcontrol.wait``
|
|
instructions enable fine-grained control over kernel execution in PDL.
|
|
Once all thread blocks execute the ``griddepcontrol.launch_dependents``
|
|
instruction, the dependent kernels can opportunistically be early-launched.
|
|
``griddepcontrol.wait`` functions as a synchronization barrier - any warp
|
|
executing this instruction will block until the previous kernel finishes
|
|
execution. This allows precise control over data dependencies between kernels.
|
|
|
|
The following diagram shows the overlapping execution of two dependent kernels.
|
|
We call the instructions before ``griddepcontrol.wait`` as prologue (``P0``),
|
|
which may include barrier initialization and loading of independent data, etc.
|
|
We call the instructions after ``griddepcontrol.launch_dependents`` as epilogue
|
|
(``P2``), which may include math operations, data stores, etc. PDL enables
|
|
these prologue and epilogue phases to execute concurrently across dependent
|
|
kernels, improving GPU resource utilization. This is particularly beneficial
|
|
when prologue and epilogue are bound by different resources (e.g., memory
|
|
bandwidth vs compute throughput).
|
|
|
|
# P0: Prologue, P1: Main compute, P2: Epilogue
|
|
|
|
P0 P1 P2
|
|
K1: |=====|+++++|-----|
|
|
|
|
<-----> K2 can start early
|
|
(K1's P2 overlaps with K2's P0)
|
|
|
|
P0 P1 P2
|
|
K2: |=====| |+++++|-----|
|
|
^
|
|
|
|
|
wait for K1 to complete
|
|
Time ------------------------------------------------------>
|
|
|
|
We could run this example with and without PDL:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
python examples/blackwell/programmatic_dependent_launch.py --benchmark
|
|
python examples/blackwell/programmatic_dependent_launch.py --benchmark --use_pdl
|
|
|
|
From the benchmark results, you can see some speedups for the PDL version in most cases, benefiting from
|
|
the overlapping execution of consecutive kernels. Moreover, you can use nsys to observe the overlapping execution.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
nsys profile python examples/blackwell/programmatic_dependent_launch.py --benchmark --use_pdl
|
|
|
|
Note, PDL feature is supported on Hopper and later GPUs.
|
|

|
