This provide several advantages:
- more flexibility in designing unit tests
- unit tests can be glued to speed up compilation
- unit tests are compiled with same predefined macros, which is a requirement for zapcc
The major changes are
1. Moving CUDA/PacketMath.h to GPU/PacketMath.h
2. Moving CUDA/MathFunctions.h to GPU/MathFunction.h
3. Moving CUDA/CudaSpecialFunctions.h to GPU/GpuSpecialFunctions.h
The above three changes effectively enable the Eigen "Packet" layer for the HIP platform
4. Merging the "hip_basic" and "cuda_basic" unit tests into one ("gpu_basic")
5. Updating the "EIGEN_DEVICE_FUNC" marking in some places
The change has been tested on the HIP and CUDA platforms.
There are two major changes (and a few minor ones which are not listed here...see PR discussion for details)
1. Eigen::half implementations for HIP and CUDA have been merged.
This means that
- `CUDA/Half.h` and `HIP/hcc/Half.h` got merged to a new file `GPU/Half.h`
- `CUDA/PacketMathHalf.h` and `HIP/hcc/PacketMathHalf.h` got merged to a new file `GPU/PacketMathHalf.h`
- `CUDA/TypeCasting.h` and `HIP/hcc/TypeCasting.h` got merged to a new file `GPU/TypeCasting.h`
After this change the `HIP/hcc` directory only contains one file `math_constants.h`. That will go away too once that file becomes a part of the HIP install.
2. new macros EIGEN_GPUCC, EIGEN_GPU_COMPILE_PHASE and EIGEN_HAS_GPU_FP16 have been added and the code has been updated to use them where appropriate.
- `EIGEN_GPUCC` is the same as `(EIGEN_CUDACC || EIGEN_HIPCC)`
- `EIGEN_GPU_DEVICE_COMPILE` is the same as `(EIGEN_CUDA_ARCH || EIGEN_HIP_DEVICE_COMPILE)`
- `EIGEN_HAS_GPU_FP16` is the same as `(EIGEN_HAS_CUDA_FP16 or EIGEN_HAS_HIP_FP16)`
This commit enables the use of Eigen on HIP kernels / AMD GPUs. Support has been added along the same lines as what already exists for using Eigen in CUDA kernels / NVidia GPUs.
Application code needs to explicitly define EIGEN_USE_HIP when using Eigen in HIP kernels. This is because some of the CUDA headers get picked up by default during Eigen compile (irrespective of whether or not the underlying compiler is CUDACC/NVCC, for e.g. Eigen/src/Core/arch/CUDA/Half.h). In order to maintain this behavior, the EIGEN_USE_HIP macro is used to switch to using the HIP version of those header files (see Eigen/Core and unsupported/Eigen/CXX11/Tensor)
Use the "-DEIGEN_TEST_HIP" cmake option to enable the HIP specific unit tests.
