Vocabulary

Four tutorials that teach writing and extending a kernel’s own vocabulary, end to end: declaring a shared shape once for a family of kernels, growing it by ordinary Python inheritance, giving a function a derivative you supply, and a capstone that runs the whole machinery at scale and hands it to PyTorch. Two further pages round it out: the decision between a primitive, raw_device, and a native op, and the contributor path for the last of those.

• Writing a vocabulary I: a family of kernels
• Writing a vocabulary II: extend it by inheritance
• Your own function, your own derivative
• Capstone: your physics, end to end
• When hawk can’t spell it
