GenTT: Generate Vectorized Codes for General Tensor Permutation

Tensor permutation is a fundamental operation widely applied in AI, tensor networks, and related fields. However, it is extremely complex, and different shapes and permutation maps can make a huge difference. SIMD permutation began to be studied in 2006, but the best method at that time was to split complex permutations into multiple simple permutations to do SIMD, which might increase the complexity for very complex permutations. Subsequently, as tensor contraction gained significant attention, researchers explored structured permutations associated with tensor contraction. Progress on general permutations has been limited, and with increasing SIMD bit widths, achieving efficient performance for these permutations has become increasingly challenging. We propose a SIMD permutation toolkit, \system, that generates optimized permutation code for arbitrary instruction sets, bit widths, tensor shapes, and permutation patterns, while maintaining low complexity. In our experiments, \system is able to achieve up to $38\times$ speedup for special cases and $5\times$ for general gases compared to Numpy.
