โœจ Key Features

๐Ÿ” Visualization & Analysis

  • ๐Ÿš€ Launch Difference Analysis - Detect and visualize kernel launch parameter variations
  • ๐Ÿ“Š IR Code View - Side-by-side IR viewing with synchronized highlighting and line mapping
  • ๐Ÿ”„ File Diff View - Compare kernels across different trace files side-by-side
  • ๐Ÿ“ Multi-format IR Support - View TTGIR, TTIR, LLIR, PTX, and AMDGCN
  • ๐ŸŽฏ Interactive Code Views - Click-to-highlight corresponding lines across IR stages

๐Ÿ”ง Reproducer & Debugging Tools

  • ๐Ÿ”„ Standalone Script Generation - Extract any kernel into a self-contained Python script
  • ๐Ÿ’พ Tensor Data Reconstruction - Preserve actual tensor data or use statistical approximation
  • ๐ŸŽฏ Custom Templates - Flexible reproducer templates for different workflows
  • ๐Ÿ› Bug Isolation - Share reproducible test cases for debugging and collaboration

๐Ÿ“Š Structured Logging & Analysis

  • ๐Ÿ“ Compilation & Launch Tracing - Capture detailed events with source mapping
  • ๐Ÿ” Stack Trace Integration - Full Python stack traces for debugging
  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Metadata Extraction - Comprehensive kernel statistics

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Developer Tools

  • ๐ŸŒ Browser-based Interface - No installation required, works in your browser
  • ๐Ÿ”’ Privacy-first - All processing happens locally, no data uploaded

๐Ÿš€ Quick Start

1. Generate Traces

import tritonparse.structured_logging
import tritonparse.utils

# Initialize logging
tritonparse.structured_logging.init("./logs/", enable_trace_launch=True)

# Your Triton/PyTorch code here
# ... your kernels ...

# Parse and generate trace files
tritonparse.utils.unified_parse("./logs/", out="./parsed_output")
๐Ÿ“ Example output (click to expand)
================================================================================
๐Ÿ“ TRITONPARSE PARSING RESULTS
================================================================================
๐Ÿ“‚ Parsed files directory: /scratch/findhao/tritonparse/tests/parsed_output
๐Ÿ“Š Total files generated: 2

๐Ÿ“„ Generated files:
   1. ๐Ÿ“ dedicated_log_triton_trace_findhao__mapped.ndjson.gz (7.2KB)
   2. ๐Ÿ“ log_file_list.json (181B)
================================================================================
โœ… Parsing completed successfully!
================================================================================

2. Visualize Results

Visit https://meta-pytorch.org/tritonparse/ and open your local trace files (.ndjson.gz format).

๐Ÿ”’ Privacy Note: Your trace files are processed entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded to any server!

3. Generate Reproducers (Optional)

Extract any kernel into a standalone, executable Python script for debugging or testing:

# Generate reproducer from first launch event
tritonparse reproduce ./parsed_output/trace.ndjson.gz --line 2 --out-dir repro_output

# Run the generated reproducer
cd repro_output/<kernel_name>/
python repro_*.py

Python API:

from tritonparse.reproducer.orchestrator import reproduce

result = reproduce(
    input_path="./parsed_output/trace.ndjson.gz",
    line_index=1,           # Which launch event (1-based)
    out_dir="repro_output"
)
๐ŸŽฏ Common Reproducer Use Cases (click to expand)
  • ๐Ÿ› Bug Isolation: Extract a failing kernel into a minimal standalone script
  • โšก Performance Testing: Benchmark specific kernels without running the full application
  • ๐Ÿค Team Collaboration: Share reproducible test cases with colleagues or in bug reports
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Regression Testing: Compare kernel behavior and performance across different versions
  • ๐Ÿ” Deep Debugging: Modify and experiment with kernel parameters in isolation

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Installation

For basic usage (trace generation): Four options:

# install nightly version
pip install -U --pre tritonparse
# install stable version
pip install tritonparse
# install from source
git clone https://github.com/meta-pytorch/tritonparse.git
cd tritonparse
pip install -e .
# pip install the latest version from github
pip install git+https://github.com/meta-pytorch/tritonparse.git

Prerequisites: Python โ‰ฅ 3.10, Triton โ‰ฅ 3.4.0, GPU required (NVIDIA/AMD)

TritonParse relies on new features in Triton. Please install the latest version of Triton:

pip install triton
