The primitive
pow2_decompose
is the core decomposition kernel used everywhere in AutoScale/Scalify, meaning it is worth properly formalizing it as a JAX primitive, simplifying the Jaxpr level graph and allowing proper custom kernel optimization on different HW platforms (GPU, IPU, TPU, ...).NOTE: this PR is fixing additional subnormal related bugs, due to inconsistency of
jnp.frexp
vs Numpy.See: jax-ml/jax#19689
