Meeting Minutes

Summary of Main Takeaways:

  • Agreement on RFC processes and methodologies.
  • oneMKL to be renamed to oneMath, with ongoing discussions on naming implications.
  • Introduction of a generic GPU backend for oneDNN with opportunities for vendor-specific optimizations.
  • Repository migrations scheduled for Q4 with provisional spec published.
  • Progress on CI infrastructure with new GPU resources and potential community contributions.

Key Discussion Points

  1. General RFC Processes Discussion
    • Rod Burns initiated the discussion on the RFC processes for projects involving major changes.
    • Vadim Pirogov shared experience from the oneDNN team, highlighting a maintainer-driven approach.
    • Importance of consensus and feedback from key stakeholders mentioned by Vadim and Rod.
  2. oneMKL Project Renaming (slides1)
    • Romain Biessy presented a proposal to rename the oneMKL project to oneMath.
    • Discussion on the impact of renaming on namespaces and headers, retaining compatibility with warnings.
    • Need clarity on stakeholders involved in decision-making.
    • New GitHub resources were discussed for administrative communication.
  3. oneDNN Generic GPU Backend (slides2)
    • Denis Samoilov introduced a new generic GPU backend to support various hardware.
    • The backend can work with different adoptions like Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD.
    • Emphasis on expanding coverage and optimizing implementations using vendor performance libraries.
  4. Repository Migration Update
    • Robert Cohn reaffirmed the timeline for repository migration to Q4.
    • Encouraged feedback on provisional spec published.
    • Discussions on managing existing and new repositories during the migration.
  5. CI Infrastructure Update (slides3)
    • Aaron Dron updated on the CI infrastructure progress with new GPU resources.
    • Invited discussions on hardware contributions from members.
    • Planning for private documentation and handling driver updates.

Action Items

  • Vadim Pirogov: Explore further steps for vendor-specific optimizations.
  • Romain Biessy: Send a reminder regarding the naming decision deadline.
  • Robert Cohn: Provide support for oneCCL spec updates.
  • Aaron Dron: Liaise with members interested in providing test hardware.
  • Andrew Wafaa: Assist with coordination for ARM support via GitHub Actions.

Decisions/Agreements Made

  • Agreement to proceed with oneMath renaming pending further stakeholder feedback.
  • Consensus on adopting a step-by-step approach for repository migration.
  • Approval for developing a structured CI infrastructure, leveraging new GPU testing capabilities.
