+## AutoPipeline: Advanced Multi-Level Pipelining
+
+FlagTree introduces `@auto_pipeline`, a decorator that enables automatic multi-level pipelining optimization for Triton kernels. This feature provides significant performance improvements without requiring manual kernel modifications.
+
+### Features
+
+- **Global-to-Shared (G2S) Pipelining**: Multi-stage async data prefetching from global to shared memory
+- **Shared-to-Register (S2R) Pipelining**: Double-buffering optimization for shared memory to register transfers
+- **Warp Specialization**: Producer-consumer pattern with dedicated prefetch and compute warps
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```python
+import triton
+import triton.language as tl
+from triton.language import auto_pipeline, PipelineConfig, WarpSpecConfig
+
+@triton.jit
+@auto_pipeline(PipelineConfig(
+ global_to_shared_stages=4,
+ shared_to_register_stages=2,
+ enable_async_copy=True,
+ enable_swizzle=True,
+ enable_warp_specialization=True,
+ warp_spec_config=WarpSpecConfig(
+ num_producer_warps=1,
+ num_consumer_warps=3,
+ )
+))
+def matmul_kernel(A, B, C, M, N, K, ...):
+ # Standard GEMM implementation - no changes needed!
+ ...
+```
+
+### Performance Results (2048x2048x2048 GEMM on A100)
+
+| Kernel | TFLOPS | Speedup |
+|--------|--------|---------|
+| No Pipeline | 107.30 | 1.00x |
+| Default Pipeline | 167.41 | 1.56x |
+| **AutoPipeline** | **206.79** | **1.93x** |
+
+### Run Benchmark
+
+```shell
+cd python/test
+python benchmark_autopipeline.py
+```
