This pull request updates the way buffer layout equality is checked in the BufferUseDefCollector class within src/transform/layout_inference.cc. The change replaces the use of the general StructuralEqual function with the more specific IsEqual method for layout comparison.

Improvement to layout comparison logic:

  • Changed buffer layout equality check from using StructuralEqual() to the more precise layout->IsEqual() method in the BufferUseDefCollector class, ensuring that layout objects are compared using their specialized equality logic.

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved buffer layout validation accuracy during runtime checks.

Walkthrough

A runtime layout equality check in src/transform/layout_inference.cc has been replaced, changing from StructuralEqual() to IsEqual() when validating that a buffer's layout remains consistent in the layout_map. The modification affects only the validation logic without altering public interfaces.

Poem

🐰 A layout check, so neat and clean,
We swapped a method—quite serene!
From Structural to IsEqual's call,
Validating buffers, one and all.
Equal layouts, checked with care,
Our warren's logic, beyond compare! 🏘️

The title specifically identifies the technical modification: replacing StructuralEqual() with IsEqual() for layout comparison, which is exactly what the code change accomplishes in src/transform/layout_inference.cc. The title is concise (6 words), avoids vague language like "misc updates," and provides sufficient specificity that a teammate reviewing the git history would immediately understand the nature of the change. The [Layout] prefix appropriately contextualizes the component being modified.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

🧩 Analysis chain

Good improvement using specialized equality.

Replacing StructuralEqual() with layout->IsEqual() is appropriate here, as it leverages domain-specific equality logic for Layout objects rather than generic structural comparison.

To ensure consistency across the codebase, verify that all layout-to-layout comparisons use IsEqual() rather than StructuralEqual():

Incomplete conversion: Layout comparisons in src/op/copy.cc still use StructuralEqual().

The change at line 162 replaces StructuralEqual() with layout->IsEqual(), but this conversion was not applied consistently across the codebase. Six Layout-to-Layout comparisons in src/op/copy.cc still use the generic StructuralEqual():

  • Line 1468: shared_layout vs linear_layout
  • Lines 1477, 1481, 1486, 1491: shared_layout vs swizzle layout results (quarter/half/full bank patterns)
  • Lines 1835, 1839, 1843: similar comparisons in a second function

Update these to use shared_layout->IsEqual(other_layout.get()) for consistency with the specialized equality logic.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In src/transform/layout_inference.cc around lines 162-165 the code was updated
to use layout->IsEqual(...) but similar Layout-to-Layout comparisons in
src/op/copy.cc remain using StructuralEqual(); update each listed comparison to
call the specialized IsEqual on the shared layout. Specifically, replace
occurrences like shared_layout->StructuralEqual(linear_layout.get()) or
shared_layout->StructuralEqual(swizzle_layout.get()) with
shared_layout->IsEqual(linear_layout.get()) and
shared_layout->IsEqual(swizzle_layout.get()) respectively at the noted locations
(around lines 1468, 1477, 1481, 1486, 1491 and around 1835, 1839, 1843); ensure
you call IsEqual on the left-hand shared_layout pointer and pass the other
layout.get() as the argument to preserve semantics.

StructuralEqual is too strict for this case:

Those two layouts is fully replicated and they can have no conflicts.
