ea-compiler 1.10.0

Eä compute kernel compiler for Python — write SIMD kernels, call from NumPy

ea-compiler

Python package wrapping the Eä compute kernel compiler. Write .ea kernel files, compile to native SIMD code, call from Python with NumPy arrays. No C toolchain, no Cython, no JIT warmup.

Install

pip install ea-compiler

Works on Linux x86_64, Linux aarch64, and Windows x86_64.

Quick start

Write a kernel (scale.ea):

export func scale(src: *f32, dst: *mut f32, factor: f32, n: i32) {
    let s: f32x8 = splat(factor)
    let mut i: i32 = 0
    while i < n {
        let v: f32x8 = load(src, i)
        store(dst, i, v .* s)
        i = i + 8
    }
}

Call it from Python:

import ea
import numpy as np

kernel = ea.load("scale.ea")

src = np.random.randn(1_000_000).astype(np.float32)
dst = np.empty_like(src)
kernel.scale(src, dst, factor=2.0)

ea.load() compiles the kernel to a native shared library, caches it in __eacache__/, and returns a callable object with ctypes bindings generated from the function signature. Subsequent calls use the cache.

API

import ea

# Compile, cache, and load — returns callable kernel module
kernel = ea.load("kernel.ea", target="native", opt_level=3)

# Compile without caching — returns Path to .so/.dll
ea.compile("kernel.ea")

# Clear cached compilations
ea.clear_cache()

# Version info
ea.__version__          # package version
ea.compiler_version()   # bundled ea binary version

How it works

1. Bundles a pre-built ea compiler binary (no Rust or LLVM needed)
2. ea.load() invokes the compiler via subprocess to produce a .so/.dll
3. Parses the generated .ea.json metadata to build ctypes bindings at runtime
4. Length parameters (n, len, count, etc.) are auto-filled from array sizes
5. Output parameters with [cap: ...] annotations are auto-allocated and returned
6. Results are cached per CPU target and compiler version
