run_pytest.sh hardcoded --level core, so the only shapes ever reachable were
each operator's core_shapes entry. FlagGems merges a subclass's
set_more_shapes() on top of that at --level comprehensive, and for BLAS that
addition is where the large GEMMs live: mm goes from 5 shapes to 29, taking in
four large-K tuples plus models_shapes/*.yaml, with N/K up to 152064. The
comprehensive path also yields each shape a second time (transposed, for BLAS),
so the case count doubles. None of that was reachable without editing the driver.
BENCH_LEVEL defaults to core, so existing runs are unchanged, and rejects
anything other than core/comprehensive rather than passing it through to pytest.
The chosen level is echoed in the run header, written into the archived
shapes.yaml, and recorded in run_identity.json, because an A/B whose two sides
used different levels is not comparable and is otherwise invisible afterwards.
Sweep cost scales with the shape count, so comprehensive on a BLAS operator
wants PARALLEL_WARMUP_GPUS.

Everything about which accelerator a run targets was previously spelled CUDA:
device discovery went through nvidia-smi, pinning through CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES,
the vendor guard only recognised NVIDIA, and the -p plugin list was hardcoded in
run_pytest.sh with no way to drop the CUDA-only members. Running the same
operator corpus on another vendor's device therefore meant editing the drivers.
The selection now hangs off one ZL_BACKEND variable (cuda/musa/rocm/ascend, with
the usual aliases):
- backends/ owns per-backend device enumeration, visibility env keys and
capability flags, so nothing above it names a vendor;
- plugin_plan.py derives the -p list from those capabilities instead of a
hardcoded array, which is what lets a non-CUDA run omit the graph-capture and
cluster-fix plugins rather than watch them fail;
- _timing_plugin selects the timer from the same capabilities: CUDA keeps
graph capture with its per-shape fallback, other backends stay on upstream
do_bench and record timer=direct, because capture-then-fallback on a device
without graph support only produces noise;
- _device_setup_plugin replaces the NVIDIA-only vendor guard;
- providers/flaggems.py resolves the pytest node, so a caller may pass TEST_NODE
directly instead of the OP/OP_FILE pair, and SHAPE_MODE=upstream can defer to
FlagGems' own core_shapes;
- _run_identity.py writes run_identity.json next to each run, recording backend,
device, timer, autotune mode and the resolved test node. Two runs whose
calibers differ are otherwise indistinguishable after the fact.
run_batch gains --backend and --devices (--gpus kept as an alias) and carries
backend/device/timer into ops_status.csv. test_backends.py covers the registry,
alias resolution, visibility env and plugin planning.

Everything in this repository runs on Linux accelerator hosts, and campaign
receipts record the SHA-256 of the harness files that produced them. With Git's
default autocrlf on Windows a checkout rewrites the shell drivers with CRLF,
which breaks them outright on the target host and changes every recorded digest.
The two inventory CSVs are renormalized here because their content is unchanged;
the remaining files normalize as part of the commits that actually modify them.
