krnl

Safe, portable, high performance compute (GPGPU) kernels.

Developed for autograph.

  • Similar functionality to CUDA and OpenCL.
  • Supports GPU's and other Vulkan 1.2 capable devices.
  • MacOS / iOS supported via MoltenVK.
  • Kernels are written inline, entirely in Rust.
    • Simple iterator patterns can be implemented without unsafe.
    • Supports inline SPIR-V assembly.
    • DebugPrintf integration, generates backtraces for panics.
  • Buffers on the host can be accessed natively as Vecs and slices.

krnlc

Kernel compiler for krnl.

  • Built on spirv-builder.
  • Supports dependencies defined in Cargo.toml.
  • Uses spirv-tools to validate and optimize.
  • Compiles to "krnl-cache.rs", so the crate will build on stable Rust.

See the docs for installation and usage instructions.

Installing

For device functionality (kernels), install Vulkan for your platform.

  • For development, it's recomended to install the LunarG Vulkan SDK, which includes additional tools:
    • vulkaninfo
    • Validation layers
      • DebugPrintf
    • spirv-tools
      • This is used by krnlc for spirv validation and optimization.
        • krnlc builds by default without needing spirv-tools to be installed.

Test

  • Check that vulkaninfo --summary shows your devices.
    • Instance version should be >= 1.2.
  • Alternatively, check that cargo test --test integration_tests -- --exact none shows your devices.
    • You can run all the tests with cargo test --all-features.

Getting Started

See the docs or build them locally with cargo doc --all-features.

Example

use krnl::{
    macros::module,
    anyhow::Result,
    device::Device,
    buffer::{Buffer, Slice, SliceMut},
};

#[module]
mod kernels {
    #[cfg(not(target_arch = "spirv"))]
    use krnl::krnl_core;
    use krnl_core::macros::kernel;

    pub fn saxpy_impl(alpha: f32, x: f32, y: &mut f32) {
        *y += alpha * x;
    }

    // Item kernels for iterator patterns.
    #[kernel]
    pub fn saxpy(alpha: f32, #[item] x: f32, #[item] y: &mut f32) {
        saxpy_impl(alpha, x, y);
    }

    // General purpose kernels like CUDA / OpenCL.
    #[kernel]
    pub fn saxpy_global(alpha: f32, #[global] x: Slice<f32>, #[global] y: UnsafeSlice<f32>) {
        use krnl_core::buffer::UnsafeIndex;

        let global_id = kernel.global_id();
        if global_id < x.len().min(y.len()) {
            saxpy_impl(alpha, x[global_id], unsafe { y.unsafe_index_mut(global_id) });
        }
    }
}

fn saxpy(alpha: f32, x: Slice<f32>, mut y: SliceMut<f32>) -> Result<()> {
    if let Some((x, y)) = x.as_host_slice().zip(y.as_host_slice_mut()) {
        x.iter()
            .copied()
            .zip(y.iter_mut())
            .for_each(|(x, y)| kernels::saxpy_impl(alpha, x, y));
        return Ok(());
    }
    if true {
        kernels::saxpy::builder()?
            .build(y.device())?
            .dispatch(alpha, x, y)
    } else {
        // or
        kernels::saxpy_global::builder()?
            .build(y.device())?
            .with_global_threads(y.len() as u32)
            .dispatch(alpha, x, y)
    }
}

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let x = vec![1f32];
    let alpha = 2f32;
    let y = vec![0f32];
    let device = Device::builder().build().ok().unwrap_or(Device::host());
    let x = Buffer::from(x).into_device(device.clone())?;
    let mut y = Buffer::from(y).into_device(device.clone())?;
    saxpy(alpha, x.as_slice(), y.as_slice_mut())?;
    let y = y.into_vec()?;
    println!("{y:?}");
    Ok(())
}
