System Scheduling Instruction Set¶

System scheduling instructions describe PTO-visible runtime protocols that coordinate tile-buffer lifetime and producer-consumer flow. This set is intentionally narrow: tile aliasing, tile-scalar compute, layout packing, quantization, random generation, and histogram work belong to the tile instruction families that define their payload semantics.

Operations¶

Operation	Description	Category
pto.tfree	Release a tile or buffer resource	Resource lifetime
pto.tpop	Pop from a TPipe/TMPipe producer-consumer stream	Scheduling protocol
pto.tpush	Push into a TPipe/TMPipe producer-consumer stream	Scheduling protocol

Contract¶

System scheduling instructions are PTO ISA instructions. Their effects are visible through buffer ownership, resource lifetime, and TPipe/TMPipe ordering. A backend must preserve the documented protocol even when it lowers an operation into scalar synchronization or runtime steps.
