- Updated stablediffusion crate path from "../stable-diffusion-burn" to "./crates/stable-diffusion-burn" for proper workspace resolution - Enhanced .gitignore to include generated model files (.mpk, .pt, .bin, .safetensors, .ckpt) and user_data directory - Added Cargo.lock to gitignore with appropriate comment - Reorganized IDE files section in gitignore for better clarity - Added newline at end of file for proper formatting

# Burn WGPU Backend
|
|
|
|
[Burn](https://github.com/tracel-ai/burn) WGPU backend
|
|
|
|
[](https://crates.io/crates/burn-wgpu)
|
|
[](https://github.com/tracel-ai/burn-wgpu/blob/master/README.md)
|
|
|
|
This crate provides a WGPU backend for [Burn](https://github.com/tracel-ai/burn) using the
|
|
[wgpu](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu).
|
|
|
|
The backend supports Vulkan, Metal, DirectX11/12, OpenGL, WebGPU.
|
|
|
|
## Usage Example
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
#[cfg(feature = "wgpu")]
|
|
mod wgpu {
|
|
use burn_autodiff::Autodiff;
|
|
use burn_wgpu::{Wgpu, WgpuDevice};
|
|
use mnist::training;
|
|
|
|
pub fn run() {
|
|
let device = WgpuDevice::default();
|
|
training::run::<Autodiff<Wgpu<f32, i32>>>(device);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> ⚠️ **Warning**
|
|
> When using one of the `wgpu` backends, you may encounter compilation errors related to recursive type evaluation. This is due to complex type nesting within the `wgpu` dependency chain.
|
|
> To resolve this issue, add the following line at the top of your `main.rs` or `lib.rs` file:
|
|
> ```rust
|
|
> #![recursion_limit = "256"]
|
|
> ```
|
|
> The default recursion limit (128) is often just below the required depth (typically 130-150) due to deeply nested associated types and trait bounds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
You can set `BURN_WGPU_MAX_TASKS` to a positive integer that determines how many computing tasks are
|
|
submitted in batches to the graphics API.
|
|
|
|
## Alternative SPIR-V backend
|
|
|
|
When targeting Vulkan, the `spirv` feature flag can be enabled to enable the SPIR-V compiler
|
|
backend, which performs significantly better than WGSL. This is especially true for matrix
|
|
multiplication, where SPIR-V can make use of TensorCores and run at `f16` precision. This isn't
|
|
currently supported by WGSL. The compiler can also be selected at runtime by setting the
|
|
corresponding generic parameter to either `SpirV` or `Wgsl`.
