choose_mp_linear_kernel

choose_mp_linear_kernel(
    config: MPLinearLayerConfig,
    compute_capability: Optional[int] = None,
) -> type[MPLinearKernel]

Choose an MPLinearKernel that can implement the given config for the given compute capability. Attempts to choose the best kernel in terms of performance.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
config	MPLinearLayerConfig	Description of the linear layer to be implemented.	required
compute_capability	Optional[int]	The compute capability of the target device, if None uses current_platform to get the compute capability. Defaults to None.	None

Raises:

Type	Description
ValueError	If no kernel can implement the given config.

Returns:

Type	Description
type[MPLinearKernel]	type[MPLinearKernel]: Chosen kernel.
