[NNNN] New proposal for organizing intrinsic tickets

[kmpeng]

Related to #377.

This proposal suggests how we should reorganize our implementation and offload test tickets for intrinsics.

Added some questions.

I think we should also cover here how much detail we go into for each issue. I think we had too much for the ones we did previously, resulting in some of it being confusingly irrelevant to the actual issue itself.

My general thoughts on this is we have 4 classes of tickets we need to track for completion status.

• Completed intrinsics issue that need matrix implementations and completed or nonexistant offload tests
  • Create new llvm-project issues to track matrix implementation
  • Create new offload suite issues to track testing completion
  • Need to link tests in llvm-project issue
• Open intrinsic tickets that need matrix and Completed or nonexistant offload tests
  • Update the open ticket with the matrix requirements
  • Create the offload suite issue
  • link the offload suite issue in the llvm-project issue
• Open Intrinsic and Open offload suite test
  • Update both tickets to cover matrix testing requirement
• Completed offload tests but no intrinsic implementation in clang
  • Just update the llvm issue with the matrix requirements
  • Create a new issue for the offload suite to cover matrix requirements

Ideally we could just parent the offload test to the llvm-project issue, but I suppose if you want to track implementation and test progress seperately you could parent to a new offload test suite issue that links to all the new offload tests we created.

Delete this? We should have all questions answered at this point right?

[kmpeng]

We never answered this. I can follow up in the chat about it.

add a number before merging here and in the title of this pr

[kmpeng]

FYI Damyan and I came to the conclusion we don't actually want to merge this, just wanted it updated for documentation. I was going to close it once the reorganization is completed.

move to Accepted
