Pre-launch Checklist

If you need help, consider asking for advice on the #hackers-new channel on Discord.

If this change needs to override an active code freeze, provide a comment explaining why. The code freeze workflow can be overridden by code reviewers. See pinned issues for any active code freezes with guidance.

Note: The Flutter team is currently trialing the use of Gemini Code Assist for GitHub. Comments from the gemini-code-assist bot should not be taken as authoritative feedback from the Flutter team. If you find its comments useful you can update your code accordingly, but if you are unsure or disagree with the feedback, please feel free to wait for a Flutter team member's review for guidance on which automated comments should be addressed.

It looks like this pull request may not have tests. Please make sure to add tests or get an explicit test exemption before merging.

If you are not sure if you need tests, consider this rule of thumb: the purpose of a test is to make sure someone doesn't accidentally revert the fix. Ask yourself, is there anything in your PR that you feel it is important we not accidentally revert back to how it was before your fix?

Reviewers: Read the Tree Hygiene page and make sure this patch meets those guidelines before LGTMing. If you believe this PR qualifies for a test exemption, contact "@test-exemption-reviewer" in the #hackers channel in Discord (don't just cc them here, they won't see it!). The test exemption team is a small volunteer group, so all reviewers should feel empowered to ask for tests, without delegating that responsibility entirely to the test exemption group.

Should we also skip for alpha <= 0.0?

gaaclarke · 2026-09-02T17:35:14Z

@b-luk oops, i wrote up that comment but forgot to submit it. Gating for alpha == 0 actually made it slower.

@b-luk oops, i wrote up that comment but forgot to submit it. Gating for alpha == 0 actually made it slower.

That's odd. It is very surprising to me for it to behave differently when skipping 1.0 vs skipping 0.0.

gaaclarke · 2026-09-02T17:39:36Z

@b-luk sorry, having github issues so it was terse. What I tried was if (alpha < 1.0 && alpha > 0.0). That was slower.

@b-luk sorry, having github issues so it was terse. What I tried was if (alpha < 1.0 && alpha > 0.0). That was slower.

Yeah, that's how I interpreted your last comment. It's surprising to me that adding if (alpha < 1.0) would speed things up, but if (alpha < 1.0 && alpha > 0.0) would slow things down.

gaaclarke · 2026-09-02T17:51:20Z

Clarification: it was slower than just having the one op conditional. It may have been faster than unconditionally executing it. I didn't double check that.

Branching has a cost in gpus, the 2 extra ops must have changed the calculus where the saving you are getting from branching aren't as worth it.

Branching has a cost in gpus, the 2 extra ops must have changed the calculus where the saving you are getting from branching aren't as worth it.

Maybe if(abs(alpha - 0.5) < 0.5)?

autosubmit label was removed for flutter/flutter/192193, because - The status or check suite Mac_arm64_verify_binaries has failed. Please fix the issues identified (or deflake) before re-applying this label.
