MLIR distribution as (manylinux-compatible) wheel

What's this? It's a means to getting a distribution of MLIR like this:

$ pip install mlir -f https://github.com/makslevental/mlir-wheels/releases/expanded_assets/latest

This will install a thing that will let you do this:

import mlir
print(mlir.__path__[0])
>>> /home/mlevental/mambaforge/envs/nelli/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mlir

where site-packages/mlir looks like this:

$ tree -L 1 site-packages/mlir
site-packages/mlir
├── bin
├── include
├── lib
├── share
└── src

i.e., a full distribution of MLIR (and LLVM) that can be used to do out-of-tree builds i.e.,

-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$(python -c "print(__import__('mlir').__path__[0])")

What's the point of distributing a primarily binary distribution as a python wheel?

1. By building using cibuildwheel, it's guaranteed that the distro is manylinux compatible, and thus can be used a foundation for other manylinux compatible python wheels.
2. Using --extra-index-url or --find-links, you can include these wheels as a dependency in your requirements.txt, like so:

   -f https://github.com/makslevental/mlir-wheels/releases/expanded_assets/latest
   mlir==17.0.0+6c7fd723
   

   i.e., releases/expanded_assets/latest works as a suitable package index.

Versioning

I'm abusing the hell out of PEP 440 compatible version strings with things like this:

mlir-17.0.0+4a63264d-cp311-cp311-macosx_12_0_arm64.whl
mlir-17.0.0+4a63264d.vulkan.openmp-cp311-cp311-macosx_12_0_arm64.whl
mlir-17.0.0+f3059e22.cuda.vulkan.openmp-cp311-cp311-manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64.whl

Anyway the point is, if you want to pin to a particular llvm commit hash then you need to specify in your requirements.txt the full version string (everything up until the platform cp311 stuff starts).

Archs

Currently, there are wheels for {(x86_64, aarch64/arm64/ARM64) ⨯ (linux, mac, windows)} - {(linux, aarch64), (windows, ARM64)}, i.e., arm builds of both linux and windows don't work yet. It's on my todo list but both of these are vexing for their own distinct reasons so who knows 🤷.

Build frequency

This repo cuts a new build at '00 01,07,13,19 * * *', i.e., at minute 0 past hour 1, 7, 13, and 19 of every day (see https://crontab.guru). All of the artifacts are uploaded to the latest tag release page. If you want some commit that's not there just open an issue and I'll kick off a build.
