提高 GPU 利用率,就是这么简单。
简单,ThunderKittens 写起来非常简单。 可扩展性,如果用户需要 ThunderKittens 无法提供的功能,可以进行功能扩展。 速度快。
80 GB HBM3,带宽为 3 TB/s(实际上带宽会少一些); 50 MB 二级缓存,带宽 12 TB/s,在 GPU 上分成两个 25MB 的部分,通过 crossbar 连接; 132 个流多处理器 (SM,streaming multiprocessors)。
WGMMA 指令是必需的,但使用起来也非常令人恼火; 共享内存实际上并没有那么快,并且需要非常小心; 地址生成成本很高; 占用率仍然有帮助,寄存器通常是关键资源。
寄存器 tile—— 寄存器文件中的 2D 张量。 寄存器向量 —— 寄存器文件中的 1D 张量。 共享 tile—— 共享内存中的 2D 张量。 共享向量 —— 共享内存中的 1D 张量。
一元运算,如 exp 二元运算,如 mul 行 / 列操作,如 row_sum
