Crate symjit_bridge 

Introduction

Symjit is a lightweight just-in-time (JIT) optimizer compiler for mathematical expressions written in Rust. It was originally designed to compile SymPy (Python’s symbolic algebra package) expressions into machine code and to serve as a bridge between SymPy and numerical routines provided by NumPy and SciPy libraries. Symjit emits AMD64 (x86-64), ARM64 (aarch64), and 64-bit RISC-V (riscv64) machine codes on Linux, Windows, and macOS platforms. SIMD is supported on x86-64 CPUs with AVX instruction sets. Symbolica (https://symbolica.io/) is a fast Rust-based Computer Algebra System. Symbolica usually generate fast code using external compilers (e.g., using gcc to compile synthetic c++ code). Symjit accepts Symbolica expressions and can act as an optional code-generator for Symbolica. Symjit-bridge crate acts as a bridge between Symbolica and Symjit to ease generating JIT code for Symbolica expressions.

Workflow

The main workflow is using different Runners. A runner corresponds to a Symbolica CompiledEvaluator object. The main runners are:

• CompiledRealRunner, corresponding to CompiledRealEvaluator.
• CompiledComplexRunner, corresponding to CompiledComplexEvaluator.
• CompiledSimdRealRunner, corresponding to CompiledSimdRealEvaluator.
• CompiledSimdComplexRunner, corresponding to CompiledSimdComplexEvaluator.
• CompiledScatteredSimdRealRunner, similar to CompiledSimdRealRunner but the data layout is similar to CompiledRealRunner.
• CompiledScatteredSimdComplexRunner, similar to CompiledSimdComplexRunner but the data layout is similar to CompiledComplexRunner.
• InterpretedRealRunner, bytecode interpreter, generally similar to ExpressionEvaluator.
• InterpretedComplexRunner, bytecode interpreter, generally similar to ExpressionEvaluator.

Each runner has four main methods:

• compile(ev: &ExpressionEvaluator<T>, config: Config): the main constructor. T is either f64 or Complex<f64>, and config is an object of type Config. For most applications, the default config suffices. However, Config.use_threads(bool) is useful to enable multi-threading.
• evaluate(args, outs): similar to the corresponding method of the Evaluators.
• save(filename).
• load(filename).

use anyhow::Result;
use symjit_bridge::{compile, Config};
use symbolica::{
    atom::AtomCore,
    evaluate::{FunctionMap, OptimizationSettings},
    parse, symbol,
};

fn test_real_runner() -> Result<()> {
    let params = vec![parse!("x"), parse!("y")];
    let f = FunctionMap::new();
    let ev = parse!("x + y^3")
        .evaluator(&f, &params, OptimizationSettings::default())
        .unwrap()
        .map_coeff(&|x| x.re.to_f64());
    let mut runner = CompiledRealRunner::compile(&ev, Config::default())?;
    let mut outs: [f64; 1] = [0.0];
    runner.evaluate(&[3.0, 5.0], &mut outs);
    assert_eq!(outs[0], 128.0);
    Ok(())
}

External Functions

Symjit has a rich set of transcendental, conditional, and logical functions (refer to Symjit for details). It is possible to expose these functions to Symbolica by using add_external_function:

fn test_external() -> Result<()> {
    let params = vec![parse!("x"), parse!("y")];
    let mut f = FunctionMap::new();
    f.add_external_function(symbol!("sinh"), "sinh".to_string())
        .unwrap();
    let ev = parse!("sinh(x+y)")
        .evaluator(&f, &params, OptimizationSettings::default())
        .unwrap()
        .map_coeff(&|x| Complex::new(x.re.to_f64(), x.im.to_f64()));
    let mut runner = CompiledComplexRunner::compile(&ev, Config::default())?;
    let args = [Complex::new(1.0, 2.0), Complex::new(2.0, -1.0)];
    let mut outs = [Complex::<f64>::default(); 1];
    runner.evaluate(&args, &mut outs);
    assert_eq!(outs[0], Complex::new(3.0, 1.0).sinh());
    Ok(())
}
