Triton provides an inline_asm_elementwise function that allows injecting elementwise PTX instructions into Triton kernels. The post demonstrates using the rcp.approx instruction to compute fast approximate reciprocals. The compilation pipeline lowers Triton kernels through MLIR and LLVM IR to PTX and then to CUBIN.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://blog.fal.ai/instruction-level-control-with-inline-elementwise-asm-in-triton/:

> Triton provides us with the inline_elementwise_asm function through which we can inject a PTX instruction that works in an elementwise manner on some given arguments.
