 The main bottleneck in most kernels is accessing memory. In a freshman algorithms class, you'll learn about cache aware matrix multiplication, and this is all forms of that. While the same math is run, the order in which you run it can have large impacts on the speed depending on if the data you are loading. OptOps will change this order.

-Memory, even cache, is often much slower than accessing the register file. The amount of times data is used in math is called the "arithmetic intensity". For operations like BS=1 GEMV, the arithmetic intensity is 1, but for GEMMs and convs it can be much higher. OptOps like UPCAST and UNROLL can increase this, but be careful of making them too large, as if there's too much register pressure on the GPU the warp scheduler may not be able to fit many warps, or even worse, it could be spilling to local memory.

 4090s have 1 TB/s of ram bandwidth and ~160 TFLOPS of compute, so you need to use each loaded value ~100 times. The L1 cache has around 40 TB/s of bandwidth, so in order to get full compute utilization you need to use each value ~4 times.

+# Navi31 flash tools
+
+Utilities for reading and recovering the 2 MiB SPI flash on Navi31 boards.
+Run them from the tinygrad repository root. No image is bundled; keep a verified
+full-ROM backup before performing any write.
+
+`fw_live.py` accesses BAR5 through tinygrad's `PCIDevice.map_bar()` abstraction
+and supports either the custom ASM24 USB-PCIe bridge or native PCIe. Select the
+transport before the subcommand:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/fw_live.py --transport usb probe
+python3 extra/amdflash/fw_live.py --transport pci probe
+```
+
+The default, `--transport auto`, considers USB devices first and then native
+PCI devices. Native PCI access requires the usual tinygrad PCI permissions and
+an unbound kernel driver.
+
+## Access paths and hardware state
+
+The paths are state-dependent and are not interchangeable:
+
+* **`romless.py`** drives SMUIO `ROM_SW_*` directly through the ASM24 bridge.
+  Use it only when an empty or corrupt flash has stalled the PSP PBL. Healthy
+  autonomous boot gates this engine; the usual gated status is
+  `ROM_SW_STATUS=0x04000800`.
+* **`fw_live.py probe`** queries the early PSP boot-firmware mailbox.
+* Firmware-mediated write commands are retained for protocol documentation but
+  are disabled because an exact stock reflash did not validate safely.
+* **`fw_live.py dump`** reads an exact 2 MiB raw image through
+  `ROM_INDEX/ROM_DATA`. It refuses devices where the raw SMUIO controller is
+  unavailable; the NBIO SOC15 function-ROM aperture is not a physical SPI
+  mapping and is deliberately not used as a fallback.
+
+The tools do not reset or power-cycle the board.
+
+## Raw ROM_SW recovery
+
+Identification and read-only operations:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py info
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py read 0 0x40
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py dump spi.bin
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py verify known-good.bin
+```
+
+Restore an exact 2 MiB image:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py flash known-good.bin --yes
+```
+
+If GD25 status-register bit `SR2.CMP` protects the complete array, clearing it
+requires separate authorization:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py flash known-good.bin --clear-cmp --yes
+```
+
+Programming is sector-granular. Every written 4 KiB sector is immediately read
+back and compared with the input. A range can be resumed independently:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/romless.py flash known-good.bin \
+  --start-sector 128 --sector-count 64 --yes
+```
+
+Navi31 ROM_SW details used by the implementation:
+
+* `ROM_SW_COMMAND = (address << 8) | opcode`
+* TX data uses big-endian stream dwords
+* `RETURN_DATA_EN` (bit 19) is clear for TX and set for RX
+* the RX window exposes the preceding transaction, so reads are primed once
+
+## Firmware-mediated access
+
+The read-only commands are:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/fw_live.py probe
+python3 extra/amdflash/fw_live.py dump current-spi.bin
+```
+
+`dump` produces exactly `0x200000` bytes, requires the raw IFWI magic at offset
+zero, rejects mirrored 1 MiB apertures, and restores the ROM controller/index
+state before writing output.
+
+The validated early-firmware sequence is available as:
+
+```sh
+python3 extra/amdflash/fw_live.py --transport usb ifwi-all full-ifwi.bin --yes
+```
+
+It resolves at most Navi31's configured 19 items, streams the item associated
+with terminal phase `0x2xx`, and then stops. PSP selects the destination
+partition; item `0x08` always comes from the payload referenced by the first
+ISH descriptor, matching AMDVBFlash. A hard power cycle is required afterward.
+
+A successful PSP update is not a byte-identical raw rewrite. On the validated
+stock test, both A/B payloads matched the source exactly, PSP selected and
+booted the updated B partition, and firmware changed only its update cookie,
+B descriptor counter/checksum, and generated metadata near `0x1ef000`.
+
+The `stream`, `ifwi-step`, and `live-flash` commands remain disabled. Testing
+showed that the PSP live path parses a raw stock IFWI but fails with status
+`0xC` (`PSP Write To SPI Error`) after writing an `$AMDVBFL` cookie. Use the
+verified ROM_SW path for recovery.
+
+## Safety
+
+ROM_SW erase/program and `ifwi-all` commands require `--yes`; other
+firmware-streaming commands are disabled. Read-only commands still touch controller and mailbox registers but
+do not issue SPI program/erase or PSP transfer-start commands. Preserve a
+known-good full dump outside the repository.
