Why

The scatter_elements operator was missing FRelaxInferLayout support, which prevented proper layout transformation when used with operators like conv2d that require layout conversion.

How

  • Implement InferLayoutScatterElements function that handles layout inference for scatter_elements
  • Transform axis attribute according to the inferred layout using FindAxis
  • Handle sub-indexed layout fallback to initial layout
  • Add test case for conv2d + scatter_elements layout conversion

Summary of Changes

Hello @guan404ming, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses a critical gap in the Relax framework by integrating layout inference capabilities for the scatter_elements operator. By implementing FRelaxInferLayout, the system can now correctly handle data layout transformations for scatter_elements, ensuring seamless integration and optimized performance when this operator is part of a larger computational graph involving layout-sensitive operations.

Highlights

  • FRelaxInferLayout for scatter_elements: Added FRelaxInferLayout support for the scatter_elements operator, which was previously missing.
  • Improved Layout Transformation: This change enables proper layout transformation for scatter_elements, especially when used in conjunction with other operators like conv2d that require layout conversion.
  • Implementation Details: The implementation includes the InferLayoutScatterElements function, logic to transform the axis attribute based on the inferred layout using FindAxis, and handling for sub-indexed layout fallback to the initial layout.
  • New Test Case: A new test case (test_conv2d_scatter_elements) has been added to validate the layout conversion for conv2d followed by scatter_elements.

Code Review

This pull request adds layout inference support for the scatter_elements operator in TVM Relax, enabling proper layout transformations when used with other operators like conv2d. The implementation introduces InferLayoutScatterElements, which determines the appropriate layout for the operator's inputs and output, and updates the axis attribute accordingly. It includes a fallback mechanism for sub-indexed layouts, defaulting to the initial layout. A new test case is added to verify the functionality in a conv2d -> scatter_elements chain.

The changes are logical and well-tested. I have a couple of suggestions to improve code clarity and maintainability by making ICHECK messages more specific and adding a comment to explain the sub-indexed layout fallback logic.
