# JIT Compilation in AI Engines

## 매 한 줄
> **"매 runtime graph 의 의 의 fused / optimized kernel 의 의 의 compile"**. 매 modern: PyTorch 2.x torch.compile (TorchDynamo + Inductor), JAX (XLA), TensorRT, ONNX Runtime. 매 응용: 매 inference 의 2-5x speedup, 매 training 의 1.5-2x.

## 매 핵심

### 매 frameworks
- **PyTorch torch.compile** (2.0+): 매 TorchDynamo + Inductor.
- **JAX**: 매 XLA-based.
- **TensorRT** (NVIDIA): 매 inference-only, 매 quantization.
- **ONNX Runtime**: 매 cross-framework.
- **TVM**: 매 deep learning compiler.
- **Triton**: 매 Python kernel JIT.

### 매 optimizations
- **Kernel fusion**.
- **Constant folding**.
- **Dead code elimination**.
- **Memory planning**.
- **Quantization**.
- **Graph rewrite**.

### 매 응용
1. Inference acceleration.
2. Training speed.
3. Edge deployment.
4. Mobile.

## 💻 패턴

### torch.compile (PyTorch 2.x)
```python
import torch
model = MyModel().cuda()
compiled = torch.compile(model, mode='reduce-overhead')
out = compiled(x)  # 매 first call: compile (slow), subsequent: fast
```

### Modes
```python
# 매 default
model = torch.compile(model)

# 매 reduce overhead (small model)
model = torch.compile(model, mode='reduce-overhead')

# 매 max performance
model = torch.compile(model, mode='max-autotune')
```

### JAX jit
```python
import jax
import jax.numpy as jnp

@jax.jit
def fn(x):
    return jnp.sin(x) * jnp.cos(x)

# 매 first call: trace + compile, subsequent: fast
y = fn(jnp.ones(1000))
```

### JAX vmap + jit
```python
@jax.jit
@jax.vmap
def model_fn(x):
    return x ** 2 + 1

batch_out = model_fn(batch_x)  # 매 auto-batched
```

### TensorRT (inference)
```python
import torch
import torch_tensorrt
trt_model = torch_tensorrt.compile(model, inputs=[torch_tensorrt.Input((1, 3, 224, 224), dtype=torch.float16)],
                                    enabled_precisions={torch.float16})
out = trt_model(x.half().cuda())
```

### ONNX export + Runtime
```python
torch.onnx.export(model, x, 'model.onnx', dynamic_axes={'input': {0: 'batch'}})

import onnxruntime as ort
sess = ort.InferenceSession('model.onnx', providers=['CUDAExecutionProvider'])
out = sess.run(None, {'input': x.cpu().numpy()})
```

### Triton kernel (Python JIT)
```python
import triton
import triton.language as tl

@triton.jit
def add_kernel(x_ptr, y_ptr, out_ptr, N, BLOCK: tl.constexpr):
    pid = tl.program_id(0)
    offsets = pid * BLOCK + tl.arange(0, BLOCK)
    mask = offsets < N
    x = tl.load(x_ptr + offsets, mask=mask)
    y = tl.load(y_ptr + offsets, mask=mask)
    tl.store(out_ptr + offsets, x + y, mask=mask)
```

### Compile + flash attention
```python
# 매 PyTorch 2.x torch.compile + sdpa = Flash Attention auto
class Block(torch.nn.Module):
    def forward(self, x):
        return F.scaled_dot_product_attention(q, k, v, is_causal=True)

compiled = torch.compile(model)
# 매 internally fuses attention
```

### Graph break detection
```python
# 매 torch.compile 의 graph break 의 의 의 perf X
# 매 torch._dynamo.config.verbose = True
# 매 → log graph breaks
import torch._dynamo
torch._dynamo.config.verbose = True
out = compiled(x)  # 매 print breaks
```

### Recompilation issue (input shape change)
```python
# 매 dynamic shape 의 의 dynamic=True
compiled = torch.compile(model, dynamic=True)
# 매 매 첫 batch shape 가 fixed 매 매 의 매 recompile
```

### Benchmark
```python
import time
def benchmark(fn, x, n_warmup=10, n_iter=100):
    for _ in range(n_warmup): fn(x); torch.cuda.synchronize()
    t0 = time.perf_counter()
    for _ in range(n_iter): fn(x); torch.cuda.synchronize()
    return (time.perf_counter() - t0) / n_iter

t_eager = benchmark(model, x)
t_compiled = benchmark(compiled, x)
print(f'Speedup: {t_eager / t_compiled:.2f}x')
```

### CUDA Graph (extreme)
```python
# 매 매 fixed-shape inference 의 의 의 의 launch overhead 의 의 의 minimize
g = torch.cuda.CUDAGraph()
with torch.cuda.graph(g):
    out = model(static_input)

# 매 each iteration
def step(x):
    static_input.copy_(x)
    g.replay()
    return out.clone()
```

### Quantization (TRT)
```python
# 매 INT8 calibration
calib_data = [...]
trt_model = torch_tensorrt.compile(
    model,
    inputs=[torch_tensorrt.Input((1, 3, 224, 224), dtype=torch.int8)],
    enabled_precisions={torch.int8},
    calibrator=torch_tensorrt.ptq.DataLoaderCalibrator(calib_data),
)
```

### TVM (cross-platform)
```python
import tvm
from tvm import relay

mod, params = relay.frontend.from_pytorch(model, [('input', x.shape)])
target = 'cuda'
with tvm.transform.PassContext(opt_level=3):
    lib = relay.build(mod, target=target, params=params)
```

### Compile-time decision
```python
def should_compile(model, expected_calls):
    if expected_calls > 100: return True  # 매 amortize compile cost
    if model.is_static_shape: return True
    return False
```

## 매 결정 기준
| 상황 | Tool |
|---|---|
| Default training | torch.compile |
| JAX research | jax.jit |
| Production inference | TensorRT |
| Cross-platform | ONNX Runtime |
| Custom kernel | Triton |
| Edge | TVM / TFLite |
| Repeated inference | + CUDA Graph |

**기본값**: 매 PyTorch 2.x = torch.compile + sdpa (auto Flash). 매 production = TensorRT. 매 cross = ONNX Runtime.

## 🔗 Graph
- 변형: [[torch.compile]] · [[TensorRT]] · [[Triton]]
- 응용: [[Flash Attention]] · [[GPU-Programming-with-CUDA]] · [[LLM_Optimization_and_Deployment_Strategies|Quantization]]
- Adjacent: [[Foundation-Models]] · [[Edge-AI-and-Computing]]

## 🤖 LLM 활용
**언제**: 매 production. 매 large model. 매 inference 가속.
**언제 X**: 매 dynamic shape changes a lot. 매 prototype.

## ❌ 안티패턴
- **Compile every call**: 매 amortize 의 fail.
- **Ignore graph breaks**: 매 perf flat.
- **Recompile每次 shape change**: 매 dynamic=True 의 forget.
- **No warmup in benchmark**: 매 misleading.

## 🧪 검증 / 중복
- Verified (PyTorch 2.0 docs, JAX docs, TensorRT, Triton).
- 신뢰도 A.
