Currently, when compiling with HIP, Eigen::half is derived from the `__half_raw` struct that is defined within the hip_fp16.h header file. This is true for both the "host" compile phase and the "device" compile phase. This was causing a very hard to detect bug in the ROCm TensorFlow build. In the ROCm Tensorflow build, * files that do not contain ant GPU code get compiled via gcc, and * files that contnain GPU code get compiled via hipcc. In certain case, we have a function that is defined in a file that is compiled by hipcc, and is called in a file that is compiled by gcc. If such a function had Eigen::half has a "pass-by-value" argument, its value was getting corrupted, when received by the function. The reason for this seems to be that for the gcc compile, Eigen::half is derived from a `__half_raw` struct that has `uint16_t` as the data-store, and for hipcc the `__half_raw` implementation uses `_Float16` as the data store. There is some ABI incompatibility between gcc / hipcc (which is essentially latest clang), which results in the Eigen::half value (which is correct at the call-site) getting randomly corrupted when passed to the function. Changing the Eigen::half argument to be "pass by reference" seems to workaround the error. In order to fix it such that we do not run into it again in TF, this commit changes the Eigne::half implementation to use the same `__half_raw` implementation as the non-GPU compile, during host compile phase of the hipcc compile. |
