2D Convolution Optimization
===========================
**Author**: `Thierry Moreau <https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~moreau/>`_
This tutorial provides an overview on how to use TVM to map a 2D convolution
workload efficiently on the VTA design.
We recommend covering the :ref:`mat-mult-opt` tutorial first.
2D convolution is dominant in most computer vision deep neural networks.
In this tutorial, we will demonstrate TVM schedule optimizations to map
2D convolution operators in NCHW layout onto VTA.
We also introduce the notion of latency hiding, which allows us to
maximize VTA's compute and memory resource utilization.

# Computation Declaration
# -----------------------
# As a first step, we need to describe our 2D convolution computation
# in NCHW format.
#
# We define the 2D convolution shape by the batch size,
# spatial dimensions, input channels, output channels, kernel dimensions,
# kernel dimensions, padding dimensions, and stride dimensions.
#
# We pick the shape of the 9th convolutional layer of the ResNet-18
# architecture as our convolution workload parameters.
#
# We've added extra operators to the 2D convolution that apply
# shifting and clipping to the output in order to mimic a fixed-point
# convolution followed by a rectified linear activation.
# We describe the TVM dataflow graph of the 2D convolution layer below:
#
# .. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uwsaml/web-data/master/vta/tutorial/conv2d_dataflow.png
# :align: center
#
# This computation is intentionally too large to fit onto VTA's on-chip
# buffers all at once. Therefore in the scheduling phase we'll
# rely on computation blocking strategies to break the computation down into
# manageable chunks.
#
# .. note::
#
# *Spatial padding*
#
# Note that we'll need to import the TOPI library to apply spatial padding
# on the input feature map tensor.
# Spatial padding facilitates blocking in the context of 2D convolutions
# due to the fact that the same (x, y) spatial location of the input
# feature map of any given layer is read more than once if the convolution
# kernel window size is greater than one.
# On CPUs, and GPUs, one way to increase efficiency of memory accesses
# when parallelizing work is spatial packing, which requires data re-layout.
# VTA load DMA engine can insert padding automatically so that the original
# input feature map does not have to be re-packed in memory.
#
# We show the effect of VTA's on the fly spatial padding when data is being
# loaded from DRAM into VTA's SRAM, following a 2D strided and padded memory
# read.

# --------------------------
# We'll look at a set of schedule transformations necessary to map the
# 2D convolution onto VTA in an efficient fashion.
# Those include:
#
# - Computation blocking
# - Virtual threading to increase compute utilization
# - Lowering to VTA hardware intrinsics
# Create TVM schedule

# Let's look at the default TVM schedule

######################################################################
# Blocking the Computation
# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# The 2D convolution is by default too large for activations or kernel weights
# to fit on VTA's on-chip buffers all at once.
# We apply blocking along input channels, output channels, and along
# the height spatial dimensions.
# We don't apply blocking along the width spatial dimension since it's
# the innermost dimension in the NCHW layout (and consequently to increase
# locality, it's best not to block along the innermost dimension).
# Let's define tiling sizes
b_block = 1 // env.BATCH
oc_block = 128 // env.BLOCK_OUT
ic_block = 16 // env.BLOCK_IN
h_block = 7
w_block = 14
# Tile the output tensor along the spatial and output channel dimensions
# (since by default we are doing single batch inference, the split along
# the batch dimension has no effect)
b, oc, y, x, b_tns, oc_tns = s[res].op.axis
b_out, b_inn = s[res].split(b, factor=b_block)
oc_out, oc_inn = s[res].split(oc, factor=oc_block)
y_out, y_inn = s[res].split(y, factor=h_block)
x_out, x_inn = s[res].split(x, factor=w_block)
s[res].reorder(b_out, oc_out, y_out, x_out, b_inn, oc_inn, y_inn, x_inn, b_tns, oc_tns)
# Move intermediate computation into each output compute tile
s[res_conv].compute_at(s[res], x_out)
s[res_shr].compute_at(s[res], x_out)
s[res_max].compute_at(s[res], x_out)

# Apply additional loop split along reduction axis (input channel)

ic_out, ic_inn = s[res_conv].split(ic, factor=ic_block)
# Reorder axes.
# 1) Group the VTA tensor axes in the inner most position: b_tns, oc_tns, ic_tns
# to allow TVM to tensorize.
# 2) We move the ic_out axis all the way out of the convolution loop to block
# along the reduction axis.
# 3) Now we re-order the block axes: b_inn, oc_inn, y_inn, x_inn, ic_inn, dy, dx.
# VTA runtime/hardware requires us to write to a different output feature map
# location for every VTA tensor operation.
# This restriction requires us to order one of oc_inn, y_inn or x_inn right
# before b_tns, since they all affect output feature map indexing.
# Therefore, we choose to bring x_inn inside as shown below.

######################################################################
# Virtual Threading
# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# Virtual threading is a mechanism that increases task-level pipeline
# parallelism in the VTA hardware design.
# Put it another way, it increases compute resource utilization by hiding
# memory access latency.
#
# In the implementation below, virtual threading distributes work across two
# threads split along the output channel axis.
# We show how work is split when computing the 2D convolution in the figure
# below.
#
# .. image:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uwsaml/web-data/master/vta/tutorial/virtual_threading.png

# VTA only supports 2 virtual threads

# Lowering Copies to DMA Transfers
# ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# Next we set the buffer scopes to the corresponding on-chip VTA SRAM buffers.
# We move the load loops into the 2D convolution computation loop to stage
# memory loads such that they fit in the on-chip SRAM buffers.
# Finally we annotate the load/store loop outer axes with the DMA copy pragma
# to perform bulk memory transfers on VTA.
