November 2025 performance and reliability update for ROCm/jax on Mosaic TPU. Key work focused on tiling and layout optimization to reduce relayout overhead and improve throughput, extending reduction capabilities with non-neutral accumulators, and tightening test feedback through reliable OOM messaging. Delivered features and fixes: - Flexible tiling and layout optimization for Mosaic TPU: refined safe tiling during relayout insertion, enabled arbitrary tilings for packed dtypes, unified the 3-stage algorithm for both packed and unpacked cases, and added support for non-leading/non-matching batch dimensions in dot_general. - Non-neutral accumulators support in vector.multi_reduction: enabled complex fused operations like sum of two matmuls (a@b + c@d) by allowing non-neutral accumulators. - Reliable OOM message handling in Mosaic TPU tests: adjusted block sizes for double-buffered cases to ensure accurate Vmem OOM reporting in tests. Impact: Significantly improved Mosaic TPU performance and flexibility, expanded expressiveness of reductions, and increased test reliability, contributing to faster iteration cycles and more robust deployment of Mosaic TPU workloads.

October 2025 monthly summary: Implemented cross-repo enhancements to scalar input-output aliasing for Mosaic TPU, strengthening correctness and reliability in both TensorFlow and XLA pipelines. The changes focus on ShapeVerifier in TensorFlow and the HLO Verifier in XLA, ensuring robust handling of scalar operands without assigned memory space and preventing false positives in layout-sensitive checks. Accompanied by regression tests to guard against future regressions and to validate the new aliasing behavior. Overall, these efforts reduce verification risks in critical tensor operations, improve custom call handling, and lay groundwork for future performance optimizations in Mosaic TPU paths.
