GT4Py - GT4Py v1.0.6

Summary of changes since v1.0.5

Cartesian

  • Introduced a debug backend, a plain python backend for debugging and rapid prototyping of features.
  • Refactoring of the lowering to SDFG using DaCe ScheduleTree: the current bridge OIR -> TreeIR -> SDFG is replaced with OIR -> TreeIR -> ScheduleTree, then it relies on DaCe to expand ScheduleTree to SDFG.

Development

  • GitHub Actions CI infrastructure updated with (optional) test-components exclusions loaded from a dynamically generated JSON file.

GT4Py - GT4Py v1.0.5

Summary of changes since v1.0.4

General

  • We added support for Python 3.12 and 3.13 and dropped support for Python < 3.10.
  • We moved to versioningit for versioning: each commit will now have a version following the format {major}.{minor}.{path}[.post{#commits since release}+{rev}[.dirty]], see section [tool.versioningit.format] in pyproject.toml.
  • The GridTools C++ library doesn't require Boost anymore, therefore there is no implicit dependency to Boost in GT4Py.

Cartesian

  • New feature: Allow writes with K-offsets in FORWARD and BACKWARD computations.
  • Undeprecated __INLINED as no concrete plans exist to implement an alternative.
  • Fixes cases with while-loops in conditionals.
  • Fix @gtscript.function inlining in while-loops.
  • Fixes in CuPy-ROCm storage allocation.
  • Improved test coverage for horizontal regions.
  • Improved some error messages and warnings.
  • Various style modernizations (especially related to dropped support for Python < 3.10)

DaCe support in Cartesian

  • Expose control flow elements to DaCe
  • Fixes argument validation in intersection code of DaCeIR's DomainInterval.

Development

  • Switched to uv is the standard project management tool.

Cartesian

  • Introduced a GlobalTable which is a data dimensions only Field. Access is provided via .A which also becomes a way to access data dimensions on regular Field.
  • Added an error message if a non existing backend is selected.
  • Allow setting compiler optimization level and flags on a per stencil basis
  • Added GT4PY_EXTRA_COMPILE_ARGS, GT4PY_EXTRA_LINK_ARGS and DACE_DEFAULT_BLOCK_SIZE environment variables
  • Fixes for the DaCe backend
  • Various style modernizations

Deprecation

  • The cuda backend is deprecated (enable by setting environment variable GT4PY_GTC_CUDA_USE=1), use gt:gpu or dace:gpu instead.

Development

  • Replaced flake8, black with ruff
  • Added CI plan with GH200 GPUs
