refactor(ir)!: keyword-only ir.compile, one compile mapping, RunConfig split three ways, and the ir/runtime cycle by lyfne123 · Pull Request #2626 · hw-native-sys/pypto

Summary

Stages C and D from docs/en/dev/08-entry-points.md. Stage B landed in #2609
and #2616.

Three commits, each readable on its own.

1. `ir.compile` becomes keyword-only

It accepted all eighteen parameters positionally. Nobody passes them that
way — an AST scan over this repository's 121 ir.compile call sites and
pypto-lib's 4 finds not one that binds a second argument by position — but the
possibility was load-bearing. It made parameter order part of the contract, so
a new option could only be appended, never slotted in beside the one it belongs
with. The source said so, in the signature:

    dump_ptoas_passes: bool = False,
    # Appended, not inserted: every parameter above is positional, so slotting a
    # new one in the middle would silently rebind existing positional callers.
    runtime: _passes.RuntimeKind | None = None,

Every option is now keyword-only; program stays positional. The comment goes
with the constraint it described, and the docstring says why the signature is
shaped this way. No call site changes — in this repo or in pypto-lib.

2. One `RunConfig` → `ir.compile` mapping, not two

The translation existed twice: RunConfig.compile_kwargs() and
jit.decorator._run_config_compile_kwargs, byte-identical apart from the JIT
copy omitting platform and backend_type — it forwarded the platform through
a separate _compile(platform=...) parameter instead. Two copies of one mapping
means a knob added to either is silently missing from the other path.

The JIT copy is deleted. _compile loses its platform parameter and the
platform rides in the mapping like every other compile-side field, which is what
makes the two paths one.

Behaviour changes in one visible way: backend_type now reaches a JIT
compile explicitly. It cannot conflict — RunConfig.__post_init__ derives
backend_type from platform, and ir.compile's _backend_type_for_platform
lets platform win regardless — so this only stops the JIT path from depending
on that fallback. With no RunConfig the mapping is empty and ir.compile's own
defaults apply, exactly as the old explicit platform=None did.

_run_config_lower_kwargs stays. lower() stops before codegen and targets the
pass pipeline, not ir.compile, so its narrower mapping is a different thing
rather than a third copy.

Tests

The four _run_config_compile_kwargs unit tests in tests/ut/jit/test_decorator.py
are deleted: every assertion they made is already made against compile_kwargs()
in tests/ut/runtime/test_run_config.py, which is now the mapping's only owner.
The forwarding tests that remain in the JIT file pin what is still JIT-specific —
that the path uses the shared mapping rather than a second copy.
test_run_config.py gains identity coverage for distributed_config, the one
assertion the deleted tests made that it did not.

3. `RunConfig` splits into three typed halves

RunConfig is 27 fields covering four unrelated concerns, and no field name says
which. compile_kwargs() named the compile subset as a dict; this gives all
three subsets a type.

Type	Holds	Exported?
`CompileOptions`	What compilation reads, in `ir.compile`'s vocabulary — `output_dir`, not `save_kernels_dir`; `profiling`, not `compile_profiling`. `as_compile_kwargs()` produces the call	Yes — it unpacks into `ir.compile`

platform names the target once. RunConfig has always derived backend_type from platform in __post_init__, and ir.compile lets platform win whenever one is given — so RunConfig(platform="a5sim", backend_type=Ascend910B) yields Ascend950, and always has. CompileOptions therefore carries no backend_type. On RunConfig it is a read-only property rather than a field — as a field, dataclasses.replace(cfg, platform="a5") re-supplies the old platform's backend and trips its own warning — with the deprecated constructor keyword handled in the same __init__ wrapper as enable_l2_swimlane, warning only when the value contradicts the platform. ir.compile keeps its parameter for callers that pass no platform. The four in-repo RunConfig(backend_type=...) call sites were dead configuration and are gone.
| DfxOptions | The five diagnostic toggles. Not new — the private _DfxOpts, already the bundle threaded through execute_on_device and CallConfig, published under the name the concern deserves | Yes — it is execute_compiled's dfx= parameter |
| RunOptions | What a dispatch reads — platform, device_id, aicpu_thread_num, the three ring_* overrides, and a nested DfxOptions | No — see below |

RunOptions stays internal. Every dispatch entry point takes a RunConfig
and calls run_options() itself, so nothing accepts one: handing it to
CompiledProgram.__call__ reaches config.dfx_options() and ChipWorker.run
reaches config.any_dfx_enabled(), neither of which it has. Exporting it would
advertise an entry point that does not exist. Widening those signatures is a
migration of its own — a union type on the config= parameter of the primary
dispatch API — and doing it to some entry points and not others would be worse
than not doing it. Two tests pin the rule and the reason.

platform is in both halves on purpose: two decisions that must agree — the
target codegen builds for, and the device the worker opens.

RunConfig keeps every field and all 310 construction sites (279 here, 31 in
pypto-lib). It becomes the aggregate: the three accessors are views onto it,
compile_kwargs() is compile_options().as_compile_kwargs(), and
any_dfx_enabled() is dfx_options().any() rather than a second copy of that
predicate.

The views have real consumers rather than waiting for a migration:
_build_call_config and _apply_ring_overrides — the L2 and L3 paths that
transcribe a config onto simpler's CallConfig — read RunOptions and its
nested DfxOptions instead of reaching into RunConfig field by field, and the
ten _DfxOpts.from_run_config(cfg) call sites become cfg.dfx_options().
from_run_config goes with them: with the accessor on the aggregate, a
classmethod on the part was a second way to say the same thing.

A test pins the split as total — every RunConfig field is claimed by one of
the views, or is one of the five harness-only fields (rtol, atol,
golden_data_dir, save_kernels, codegen_only). Without it a field added
later would be readable through the aggregate and invisible to any caller that
took the half it belongs to.

What this deliberately does not do

Move those five fields out to the system-test harness. They reach pypto-lib's
RunConfig(...) calls too, so that is the same cross-repo migration
execute_compiled is waiting on — not a step that can land here.

4. Stage D: the cycle that was real, and the seven that were not

Stage D reads: invert the ir → runtime dependency, on the grounds that
ir/compiled_program.py carries nine function-local imports of pypto.runtime
"each present solely to break an import cycle".

I measured it — hoist each import to module scope, then import pypto.ir /
pypto.runtime / pypto / pypto.language / pypto.jit in a fresh
interpreter with the optional simpler package blocked. That claim is true of
exactly one of the ten:

Deferred import	Hoists cleanly?	Actual reason
`runtime.runner` (6 sites)	Yes	Layering choice, not a necessity
`runtime.distributed_runner` (2 sites)	Yes	Same
`runtime.debug.run_script_writer`	No	A real cycle
`runtime.device_runner`	No	Needs `simpler` at import time

The real one is fixed. run_script_writer renders a replay script from a
program's parameters, so it imported ParamInfo and _to_torch_dtype back out
of compiled_program — the module that reaches forward into pypto.runtime.
Hoisting it failed with cannot import name 'ParamInfo' from partially initialized module.

That metadata is IR-layer data with no runtime dependency, so it moves to
ir/param_info.py, a leaf. run_script_writer reads it there;
compiled_program re-exports all four names, so no other caller moved, and the
ParamInfo alias no longer sits alone at the bottom of a 1500-line module.
Hoisting that import now succeeds in all five orders. A test pins the leaf,
because pulling one runtime import back in restores the cycle.

What this does not do

Invert the dependency. The import list is a symptom of CompiledProgram being
both the compilation artifact and the execution handle; the cause is that double
role. Inverting it means CompiledProgram stops being callable and ir.compile
returns a descriptor runtime wraps — a change to the return type of the API
every example, both test suites and pypto-lib use.

And hoisting the eight that hoist cleanly would make the coupling stronger:
it would put pypto.runtime.runner on import pypto.ir's critical path. So the
module docstring and the dev doc now record what each deferral actually buys, in
place of a cycle claim that was wrong about eight of them.

Verification

Run in the worktree against its own build, at the pushed commit.

pytest tests/ut/ -n 16: 11085 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed
tests/lint/check_*.py (12 scripts): all pass
ruff check / ruff format --check (pinned 0.14.8): clean
pyright python/pypto tests examples: only the two pre-existing
torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2 errors, from this machine's older torch rather than
CI's pinned 2.8.0
markdownlint-cli2 v0.20.0 on the changed pages: 0 errors

Two environment failures, both confirmed against unmodified main in the same
worktree:

test_orchestration_codegen_graph.py::test_generated_orchestration_compiles_against_the_pinned_runtime
compiles generated orchestration against runtime/'s headers. The checked-out
submodule here predates the commit main pins, and that commit is not
fetchable from this environment.
test_unified_ops.py::…::test_symlinked_import_path_still_names_the_caller
(deselected, as in the previous PRs) — the editable install's meta-path finder
redirects pypto inside the subprocess the test spawns.

Device tests were not run; this change touches no kernel or codegen output.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

ir.compile now requires keyword-only options. JIT compilation uses RunConfig.compile_kwargs() for compile settings, while lower() keeps a narrower mapping. Documentation and tests reflect the unified behavior.

Changes

Compile configuration forwarding

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Keyword-only compile contract `python/pypto/ir/compile.py`, `docs/en/...`, `docs/zh/...`	`ir.compile` now accepts only `program` positionally. Documentation describes this calling convention.
Centralized JIT compile mapping `python/pypto/jit/decorator.py`, `python/pypto/runtime/runner.py`, `docs/en/dev/...`, `docs/zh/dev/...`	JIT compilation now forwards settings from `RunConfig.compile_kwargs()`. `lower()` retains its narrower mapping.
Forwarding behavior tests `tests/ut/jit/test_decorator.py`, `tests/ut/runtime/test_run_config.py`	Tests validate compile-argument forwarding, omission of unset `platform`, and `DistributedConfig` identity preservation.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 61b87

The change centralizes compile settings and makes compile options keyword-only, which may require migration for external positional callers. Merge is reasonable with owner awareness to update the two stale documentation references and communicate the compatibility change.

…mpile mapping Two Stage C items from `docs/en/dev/08-entry-points.md`, both about the same seam: how a caller states what a compile should do. `ir.compile` accepted all eighteen parameters positionally. Nobody passed them that way — across this repository's 121 call sites and pypto-lib's 4, not one binds a second argument by position — but the *possibility* was load-bearing. It made parameter order part of the contract, so a new option could only be appended, never slotted in beside the one it belongs with, and the source said so: # Appended, not inserted: every parameter above is positional, so slotting a # new one in the middle would silently rebind existing positional callers. Every option is now keyword-only; `program` stays positional. The comment is gone with the constraint it described, and the docstring says why the signature is shaped this way. The second item removes a duplicated mapping. `RunConfig` -> `ir.compile` keyword translation existed twice: `RunConfig.compile_kwargs()` and `jit.decorator._run_config_compile_kwargs`, byte-identical apart from the JIT copy omitting `platform` and `backend_type` — it forwarded the platform through a separate `_compile(platform=...)` parameter instead. Two copies of one mapping means a knob added to either is silently missing from the other path. The JIT copy is deleted. `_compile` loses its `platform` parameter and the platform rides in the mapping like every other compile-side field, which is what makes the two paths one. Behaviour changes in one visible way: `backend_type` now reaches a JIT compile explicitly. It cannot conflict — `RunConfig.__post_init__` derives `backend_type` from `platform`, and `ir.compile`'s `_backend_type_for_platform` lets `platform` win regardless — so this only stops the JIT path from depending on that fallback. With no `RunConfig` the mapping is empty and `ir.compile`'s own defaults apply, exactly as the old explicit `platform=None` did. `_run_config_lower_kwargs` stays: `lower()` stops before codegen and targets the pass pipeline, not `ir.compile`, so its narrower mapping is a different thing rather than a third copy. Tests: the four `_run_config_compile_kwargs` unit tests in `tests/ut/jit/test_decorator.py` are deleted — every assertion they made is already made against `compile_kwargs()` in `tests/ut/runtime/test_run_config.py`, which is now the mapping's only owner. The forwarding tests that remain there pin what is still JIT-specific: that the path uses the shared mapping rather than a second copy. `test_run_config.py` gains identity coverage for `distributed_config`, the one assertion the deleted tests made that it did not. Docs (en + zh): `08-entry-points.md` records that `ir.compile` is keyword-only and that `compile_kwargs()` is the single mapping; `user/execution/00-compile.md` says the same on the parameter table. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11072 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed, 1 failed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright python/pypto tests examples` reports only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors from this machine's older torch; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the 4 changed pages. The one failure is `test_orchestration_codegen_graph.py::test_generated_orchestration_compiles_against_the_pinned_runtime`, which compiles generated orchestration against `runtime/`'s headers. It fails identically on unmodified `main` in this worktree: the checked-out submodule predates the commit `main` pins, and that commit is not fetchable from here. No device tests: this change touches no kernel or codegen output.

…d DfxOptions `RunConfig` is 27 fields covering four unrelated concerns, and no field name says which. `compile_kwargs()` (hw-native-sys#2597) named the compile-side subset as a dict; this gives all three subsets a type. - `CompileOptions` — what compilation reads, in `ir.compile`'s own vocabulary: `output_dir`, not `save_kernels_dir`; `profiling`, not `compile_profiling`. `as_compile_kwargs()` produces the `ir.compile` call, so a caller that only compiles needs this and not a `RunConfig`. - `RunOptions` — what a dispatch reads: `platform`, `device_id`, `aicpu_thread_num`, the three `ring_*` overrides, and a nested `DfxOptions`. - `DfxOptions` — the five diagnostic toggles. Not new: this is the private `_DfxOpts`, which was already the bundle threaded through `execute_on_device` and `CallConfig`, published under the name the concern deserves. `platform` is in both halves on purpose. It is two decisions that must agree — the target codegen builds for, and the device the worker opens — and a worker rejects an artifact whose platform differs from its own. `RunConfig` keeps every field and every one of its 310 construction sites (279 here, 31 in pypto-lib) unchanged. It becomes the aggregate: `compile_options()` / `run_options()` / `dfx_options()` are views onto it, `compile_kwargs()` is `compile_options().as_compile_kwargs()`, and `any_dfx_enabled()` is `dfx_options().any()` rather than a second copy of that predicate. The views have real consumers rather than waiting for a migration: `_build_call_config` and `_apply_ring_overrides` — the L2 and L3 paths that transcribe a config onto simpler's `CallConfig` — now read `RunOptions` and its nested `DfxOptions` instead of reaching into `RunConfig` field by field, and the ten `_DfxOpts.from_run_config(cfg)` call sites become `cfg.dfx_options()`. `from_run_config` is gone with them: with the accessor on the aggregate, a classmethod on the part was a second way to say the same thing. A test pins the split as **total**: every `RunConfig` field is claimed by one of the views, or is one of the five harness-only fields (`rtol`, `atol`, `golden_data_dir`, `save_kernels`, `codegen_only`). Without it a field added later would be readable through the aggregate and invisible to any caller that took the half it belongs to. What this deliberately does not do is move those five out to the system-test harness. They reach `pypto-lib`'s `RunConfig(...)` calls too, so that is the same cross-repo migration `execute_compiled` is waiting on, not a step that can land here. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11078 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright python/pypto tests examples` reports only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors from this machine's older torch; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the changed pages. Two tests are deselected, both failing identically on unmodified main in this worktree: `test_symlinked_import_path_still_names_the_caller` (editable-install meta-path finder) and `test_generated_orchestration_compiles_against_the_pinned_runtime` (the checked-out `runtime/` submodule predates the commit main pins, and that commit is not fetchable from here). No device tests: this change touches no kernel or codegen output.

…nd measure the rest Stage D in `docs/en/dev/08-entry-points.md` reads: invert the `ir` -> `runtime` dependency, on the grounds that `ir/compiled_program.py` carries nine function-local imports of `pypto.runtime` "each present solely to break an import cycle". Measured one at a time — hoist the import to module scope, then import `pypto.ir` / `pypto.runtime` / `pypto` / `pypto.language` / `pypto.jit` in a fresh interpreter with the optional `simpler` package blocked — that is true of exactly one of the ten: | Deferred import | Hoists cleanly? | Actual reason | | --- | --- | --- | | `runtime.runner` (6 sites) | yes | layering choice, not a necessity | | `runtime.distributed_runner` (2 sites) | yes | same | | `runtime.debug.run_script_writer` | **no** | a real cycle | | `runtime.device_runner` | **no** | needs `simpler` at import time | The one real cycle is fixed here. `run_script_writer` renders a replay script from a program's parameters, so it imported `ParamInfo` and `_to_torch_dtype` back out of `compiled_program` — the module that reaches forward into `pypto.runtime`. Hoisting it failed with `cannot import name 'ParamInfo' from partially initialized module`. That metadata is IR-layer data with no runtime dependency, so it moves to `ir/param_info.py`, a leaf: the dtype map, `_to_torch_dtype`, and the `_ParamInfo` dataclass with its `ParamInfo` alias. `run_script_writer` reads it there. `compiled_program` re-exports all four names, so no other caller moved, and the alias no longer has to sit alone at the bottom of a 1500-line module. Hoisting `run_script_writer`'s import now imports cleanly in all five orders. A test pins the leaf — `param_info` imports nothing under `pypto.runtime`, and `run_script_writer` reads the leaf rather than the god-module — because pulling one runtime import back in restores the cycle. What this does not do is invert the dependency. The import list is a symptom of `CompiledProgram` being both the compilation artifact and the execution handle; the cause is that double role. Inverting it means `CompiledProgram` stops being callable and `ir.compile` returns a descriptor `runtime` wraps — a change to the return type of the API every example, both test suites and pypto-lib use. And hoisting the eight that hoist cleanly would make the coupling stronger, not weaker: it would put `pypto.runtime.runner` on `import pypto.ir`'s critical path. So the module docstring and the dev doc now record what each deferral actually buys, in place of a cycle claim that was wrong about eight of them. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11080 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright python/pypto tests examples` reports only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors from this machine's older torch; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the changed pages. The same two ambient tests are deselected as on the parent commits, both confirmed failing on unmodified main in this worktree. No device tests: this change touches no kernel or codegen output.

…ferences Three defects in the option-object split, all of the same kind — a name promised more than it delivers. `RunOptions` was exported and documented as the standalone dispatch-side configuration, but nothing takes one. Measured across `python/pypto`, the three types appear as a parameter annotation in: `DfxOptions` 11 signatures, three of them public (`execute_compiled`, `execute_artifact_dir`, `execute_batch_manifest`); `CompileOptions` none, and it needs none because it unpacks into `ir.compile` via `as_compile_kwargs()`; `RunOptions` exactly one, the private `_apply_ring_overrides`. Handing one to a dispatch entry point fails: `CompiledProgram.__call__` reaches `config.dfx_options()` and `ChipWorker.run` reaches `config.any_dfx_enabled()`, neither of which exists on `RunOptions`. It is now unexported, and both the module docstring and the dev doc say why: every dispatch entry point takes a `RunConfig` and calls `run_options()` itself, so `RunOptions` is the internal shape that plumbing reads (`pypto.runtime.runner.RunOptions`), not a config a caller can hand in. Widening those signatures is a migration of its own — a union type on the `config=` parameter of the primary dispatch API — and widening some entry points and not others would be worse than leaving them alone. Two tests pin it: only the option types something accepts are exported, and the `AttributeError` that is the reason. The other two are stale cross-references left by the renames: - `RunConfig.distributed_config`'s docstring still pointed at `jit.decorator._run_config_compile_kwargs`, deleted two commits ago. It is `RunConfig.compile_kwargs` now. - `_DfxOpts` / `_DfxOpts.from_run_config` survived in the en and zh DFX pages and in the entry-points "What is internal" list. `DfxOptions` is public now, so it leaves that list rather than being renamed inside it, and the DFX table names `RunConfig.dfx_options()`. - `get_backend_instance`'s docstring in `backend.pyi` referenced `RunOptions.backend_type`. That predates this PR and named nothing at all; now it names a real class without that field, which is worse. The dispatch half has no `backend_type` — it is `CompileOptions.backend_type`. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11082 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright python/pypto tests examples` reports only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the changed pages. The same two ambient tests are deselected as on the parent commits.

`platform` and `backend_type` were independent fields describing one decision, and only one of them ever decided anything. `RunConfig.__post_init__` has always overwritten `backend_type` from `platform` — unconditionally, before anything reads it — and `ir.compile`'s `_backend_type_for_platform` lets `platform` win whenever one is given. So `RunConfig(platform="a5sim", backend_type=Ascend910B)` yields `Ascend950` and always has. Carrying both advertised a pairing that cannot take effect. - `CompileOptions` drops `backend_type` entirely, and `as_compile_kwargs()` stops forwarding it. The object always passes a `platform`, so a second spelling of the same decision could only be redundant or wrong. This is new surface from two commits ago, so nothing had a chance to depend on it. - `RunConfig` keeps the field — 22 `pypto-lib` call sites pass it, so removing it is the same cross-repo migration the harness-only fields are waiting on — but stops presenting it as an input. It is documented as derived, and a value that contradicts the platform now raises a `DeprecationWarning` naming the backend the platform actually selected, instead of being dropped in silence. A value that agrees stays silent: it is redundant, not wrong. - `ir.compile` is untouched. Its `backend_type` remains the lower-level input for callers that pass no platform at all — `examples/models/05_paged_attention_batch.py` is one, and is left alone. The four in-repo `RunConfig(backend_type=...)` call sites were all dead configuration — `examples/models/{04,06,07,09}_paged_attention*.py`, each passing the backend its platform already implied — and are removed. Tests: `compile_kwargs()` must name the target once and must not forward `backend_type`, while `RunConfig.backend_type` still reports what the platform selected; the contradicting value warns; the agreeing one does not. The totality test that pins the `RunConfig` split now classifies `backend_type` as derived rather than claimed by a view — it caught this as an unclaimed field on the first run, which is what it is for. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11084 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright python/pypto tests examples` reports only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the changed pages. The same two ambient tests are deselected as on the parent commits.

The previous commit made `backend_type` derived but left it a dataclass field, which broke `dataclasses.replace`: cfg = RunConfig(platform="a2a3") dataclasses.replace(cfg, platform="a5") # DeprecationWarning `replace` re-supplies every field from the existing instance, so the *old* platform's `Ascend910B` arrives alongside the new `platform="a5"`. Nothing can tell that echo from a caller who typed a contradicting value, so a plain platform switch warned — and raised under warnings-as-errors. This is the failure mode the file already documents, three fields down, as the reason `enable_l2_swimlane` is not a field either. That comment applies here verbatim and `backend_type` should have followed it from the start. So it follows the same shape now: - a read-only `backend_type` property over `platform`, sharing the derivation with `__post_init__` through `_backend_type_for_platform`; - the deprecated constructor keyword handled in the existing `__init__` wrapper beside `enable_l2_swimlane`, warning only when the supplied value contradicts the platform — an agreeing one is redundant, not wrong; - `replace`, `fields()`, `asdict()` and `repr()` see only real fields again. Removing it from the init signature is safe: an AST scan of this repository, its tests and examples, and pypto-lib finds no `RunConfig(...)` call with positional arguments, so nothing depended on the field's position. The 22 pypto-lib call sites pass it as a keyword and keep working. Tests: the `replace(cfg, platform=...)` round trip runs under `simplefilter("error", DeprecationWarning)` and asserts `backend_type` is not in `fields(RunConfig)` — the property that makes the trip possible. The totality test drops its derived-field exemption, since the field is gone. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11085 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright python/pypto tests examples` reports only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the changed pages. The same two ambient tests are deselected as on the parent commits.

…n_mode `platform` is one string carrying two orthogonal decisions — an architecture (`a2a3` / `a5`) and an execution mode (the `sim` suffix) — and each is read by a different consumer: - compilation takes only the architecture; codegen never sees the string (zero reads of `platform` under `python/pypto/backend/`); - assembly reads both: `kernel_compiler` picks the runtime library directory from the architecture, `device_runner` picks `.so` vs `.o` and whether to extract a text section from the suffix; - dispatch reads the suffix to gate the two-pass swimlane, and the whole token to refuse an artifact whose platform differs from the worker's. `RunConfig` now stores what it chooses — `arch: BackendType` and `execution_mode: ExecutionMode` — and derives `platform` from them. `arch` is typed `BackendType` rather than a new enum on purpose: the two are 1:1, so a third spelling would recreate exactly the redundancy hw-native-sys#2626 removed. `backend_type` stays as the read accessor, now simply returning `arch`. The wire form is untouched. `cfg.platform` is still a plain `str`, so the 94 string-shaped uses across this repository and pypto-lib, the artifact sidecars, `--platform`, and simpler's `Worker(platform=...)` all keep working. `platform=` remains a constructor keyword — 238 call sites use it — and sets both axes. It is also added to `RunConfig.__signature__`: `functools.wraps` on the `__init__` wrapper copies the dataclass-generated signature, which lists the two axes and not the spelling almost every call site uses, so doc tools and IDEs would report an accepted keyword as unsupported. Two things go away with the packing. `__post_init__` no longer validates the string against four literals, nor rebuilds it from the backend it implied: if not self.platform.startswith(expected_arch): sim_suffix = "sim" if self.platform.endswith("sim") else "" self.platform = f"{expected_arch}{sim_suffix}" That decompose-and-reassemble existed because the packed string could disagree with the architecture it named. As separate fields, that state cannot be built. And `runner.py`'s copy of the architecture mapping is gone: `_arch_name` asks the backend handler, which is the C++ side that already owns the string and stamps it as `pto.target_arch`. A test pins the two against each other. `platform=` deliberately wins over an `arch=` / `execution_mode=` in the same call rather than reporting a conflict. `replace(cfg, platform=...)` re-supplies both axes from the existing instance, and nothing can tell that echo from a caller contradicting themselves — the ambiguity this file already documents for its deprecated keywords, and which cost two rounds on `backend_type` in hw-native-sys#2626. Scope: the split lands on the class that *chooses* a target. `CompileOptions`, `RunOptions`, `CompiledProgram`, `ChipWorker` and the assembly layer only carry one, and keep the string; the eight remaining `endswith("sim")` sites all hold a carried string rather than a config. The two other copies of the architecture mapping — `ir/compile.py` and `kernel_compiler.py` — also remain: collapsing them needs a shared home that neither `ir` nor `runtime` owns, which is a decision of its own rather than a detail of this change. Verified in the worktree against its own build: `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16` → 11189 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed; the 12 `tests/lint/check_*.py` scripts pass; `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` clean; `pyright` on the changed module reports 0 errors; `markdownlint-cli2` clean on the changed pages. Two tests are deselected, both failing identically on unmodified main in this worktree: `test_symlinked_import_path_still_names_the_caller` and `test_generated_orchestration_compiles_against_the_pinned_runtime`. No device tests: this change touches no kernel or codegen output.

A test pins the two against each other. Both axes are validated at construction. The packed string used to be checked against four literals, and the split removed that without replacing it: the two fields make a *disagreeing* platform unrepresentable, but not a nonsensical one. `execution_mode="sim"` is not `ExecutionMode.SIM`, so it would have read as ONBOARD and turned a simulator request into a hardware run, named `a2a3` rather than `a2a3sim`. Both now raise `TypeError` naming the value and pointing at `platform=`. The class is `kw_only`, which is what makes the precedence below true: the wrapper rewrites `kwargs`, so a positional `arch` would reach the generated `__init__` alongside the rewritten keyword and raise "multiple values for argument". No call site anywhere passes `RunConfig` arguments positionally. `platform=` deliberately wins over an `arch=` / `execution_mode=` in the same call rather than reporting a conflict. `replace(cfg, platform=...)` re-supplies both axes from the existing instance, and nothing can tell that echo from a caller contradicting themselves — the ambiguity this file already documents for its deprecated keywords, and which cost two rounds on `backend_type` in hw-native-sys#2626.

…n_mode (#2642) ## Summary `platform` is one string carrying two orthogonal decisions — an architecture (`a2a3` / `a5`) and an execution mode (the `sim` suffix). I traced who reads which half: | Phase | Reads | Where | | ----- | ----- | ----- | | Compile | **architecture only** — codegen never sees the string (0 reads of `platform` under `python/pypto/backend/`) | `ir/compile.py:110-112` | | Assembly | architecture → runtime library directory | `kernel_compiler.py:36-40` | | Assembly | suffix → `.so` vs `.o`, and whether to extract a text section | `device_runner.py:291,307` | | Dispatch | suffix → gates the two-pass swimlane | `runner.py:925`, `distributed_runner.py:1373,2911` | | Dispatch | whole token → refuse an artifact whose platform differs from the worker's | `worker.py:516` | So `RunConfig` now stores what it *chooses*, and derives the rest: ```python RunConfig(arch=BackendType.Ascend950, execution_mode=ExecutionMode.ONBOARD).platform # "a5" RunConfig(platform="a5").arch # Ascend950 ``` `arch` is typed `BackendType` rather than a new `Arch` enum on purpose: the two are 1:1, so a third spelling would recreate exactly the redundancy the two previous commits removed. `backend_type` stays as the read accessor, now simply returning `arch`. ## What this deletes `__post_init__` no longer validates the string against four literals, nor rebuilds it from the backend it implied: ```python if not self.platform.startswith(expected_arch): sim_suffix = "sim" if self.platform.endswith("sim") else "" self.platform = f"{expected_arch}{sim_suffix}" ``` That decompose-and-reassemble existed because the packed string could disagree with the architecture it named. As separate fields that state cannot be built. `runner.py`'s copy of the architecture mapping is gone too: `_arch_name` asks the backend handler — the C++ side that already owns the string and stamps it as `pto.target_arch`. A test pins the two against each other. ## What does not move The wire form. `cfg.platform` is still a plain `str`, so the **94** string-shaped uses across this repository and pypto-lib, the artifact sidecars, `--platform`, and simpler's `Worker(platform=...)` are untouched. `platform=` stays a constructor keyword — **238** call sites use it — and sets both axes. Nothing in pypto-lib changes. `platform=` deliberately wins over an `arch=` / `execution_mode=` in the same call rather than reporting a conflict: `replace(cfg, platform=...)` re-supplies both axes from the existing instance, and nothing can tell that echo from a caller contradicting themselves — the ambiguity this file already documents for its deprecated keywords, and which cost two rounds on `backend_type` in #2626 (now merged). ## Scope The split lands on the class that *chooses* a target. `CompileOptions`, `RunOptions`, `CompiledProgram`, `ChipWorker` and the assembly layer only carry one and keep the string; the eight remaining `endswith("sim")` sites all hold a carried string rather than a config. The two other copies of the architecture mapping (`ir/compile.py`, `kernel_compiler.py`) also remain. Collapsing them needs a shared home that neither `ir` nor `runtime` owns — a decision of its own, not a detail of this change. ## Verification Run in the worktree against its own build, at the pushed commit. - `pytest tests/ut/ -n 16`: 11188 passed, 8 skipped, 1 xfailed (rebased onto `main` after #2626 merged, and rebuilt) - `tests/lint/check_*.py` (12 scripts): all pass - `ruff check` / `ruff format --check` (pinned 0.14.8): clean - `pyright python/pypto tests examples`: only the two pre-existing `torch.float4_e2m1fn_x2` errors, from this machine's older torch - `markdownlint-cli2 v0.20.0` on the changed pages: 0 errors The same two ambient tests are deselected as on #2626, both confirmed failing on unmodified `main` in this worktree. Device tests were not run; this change touches no kernel or codegen output.
