Convert memref to ptr

convert_memref_to_ptr

Implements a lowering from operations on memrefs to operations on pointers.

The default lowering of memrefs in MLIR is to a structure that carries the base pointer, an offset, and strides (See (memref.extract_strided_metadata)[https://mlir.llvm.org/docs/Dialects/MemRef/#memrefextract_strided_metadata-memrefextractstridedmetadataop]). If the offset and strides are statically known, they can be encoded in the type, but they can also be dynamic.

When lowering operations on memrefs to operations on pointers, the offset and stride information must be lowered to operations that perform the required pointer arithmetic. In order to simplify the lowering of memory accesses, this pass makes the choice to lower memrefs to a pointer to the buffer including the dynamic offset. This means that memory accesses can be a simple dot product of statically known strides and dynamic indices. On the other hand, operations that create views of memrefs from other memrefs must lower to the relevant pointer arithmetic to encode the new inner buffer offset, when possible.

ConvertSubviewPattern

Bases: RewritePattern

Converts the subview to a pointer offset.

From the subview op documentation:

In the absence of rank reductions, the resulting memref type is computed as follows:

...
result_offset = src_offset + dot_product(offset_operands, src_strides)

The pointer that the source memref is lowered to is assumed to incorporate the src_offset, so this lowering just addds the dot product.
