Runtime Overview

Overview

A typical runtime consists of the following parts:

Compiled

The Compiled class is responsible for initializing and managing a device.

::: tinygrad.device.Compiled options: members: [ "synchronize" ] show_source: false

Allocator

The Allocator class is responsible for managing memory on the device. There is also a version called the LRUAllocator, which caches allocated buffers to optimize performance.

::: tinygrad.device.Allocator options: members: true show_source: false

::: tinygrad.device.LRUAllocator options: members: true show_source: false

Program

The Program class is created for each loaded program. It is responsible for compiling and executing the program on the device. As an exmaple, here is a ClangProgram implmentation which loads program and runs it.

::: tinygrad.runtime.ops_clang.ClangProgram options: members: true

Compiler

The Compiler class compiles the output from the Renderer and produces it in a device-specific format.

::: tinygrad.device.Compiler options: members: true
