+
+  ``SYCL`` serves as the backend programming language for Intel GPUs (device label ``xpu``). For configuration details, see:
+  `Getting Started on Intel GPUs <https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/main/notes/get_start_xpu.html>`_. The Intel Compiler, which comes bundled with Intel Deep Learning Essentials, handles ``SYCL`` compilation. Ensure you install and activate the compiler environment prior to executing the code examples in this tutorial.
+
+PyTorch offers a large library of operators that work on Tensors (e.g. torch.add, torch.sum, etc).
+However, you may wish to bring a new custom operator to PyTorch. This tutorial demonstrates the
+blessed path to authoring a custom operator written in SYCL. Tutorials for C++ and CUDA operators are available in the :ref:`cpp-custom-ops-tutorial`.
+
+Follow the structure to create a custom SYCL operator:

+
+Setting up the Build System
+---------------------------
+
+If you need to compile **SYCL** code (for example, ``.sycl`` files), use `torch.utils.cpp_extension.SyclExtension <https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/stable/cpp_extension.html#torch.utils.cpp_extension.SyclExtension>`_. 
+The setup process is very similar to C++/CUDA, except the compilation arguments need to be adjusted for SYCL.
+
+Using ``sycl_extension`` is as simple as writing the following ``setup.py``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+  import os
+  import torch
+  import glob
+  from setuptools import find_packages, setup
+  from torch.utils.cpp_extension import SyclExtension, BuildExtension
+
+  library_name = "sycl_extension"
+  py_limited_api = True
+  extra_compile_args = {
+      "cxx": ["-O3",
+              "-fdiagnostics-color=always",
+              "-DPy_LIMITED_API=0x03090000"],
+      "sycl": ["-O3" ]
+  }
+
+  assert(torch.xpu.is_available()), "XPU is not available, please check your environment"
+  # Source files collection
+  this_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.curdir)
+  extensions_dir = os.path.join(this_dir, library_name)
+  sources = list(glob.glob(os.path.join(extensions_dir, "*.sycl")))
+  # Construct extension
+  ext_modules = [
+      SyclExtension(
+          f"{library_name}._C",
+          sources,
+          extra_compile_args=extra_compile_args,
+          py_limited_api=py_limited_api,
+      )
+  ]
+  setup(
+      name=library_name,
+      packages=find_packages(),
+      ext_modules=ext_modules,
+      install_requires=["torch"],
+      description="Simple Example of PyTorch Sycl extensions",
+      cmdclass={"build_ext": BuildExtension},
+      options={"bdist_wheel": {"py_limited_api": "cp39"}} if py_limited_api else {},
+  )
+
+
+Defining the custom op and adding backend implementations
+---------------------------------------------------------
+First, let's write a Sycl function that computes ``mymuladd``:
+
+In order to use this from PyTorch’s Python frontend, we need to register it
+as a PyTorch operator using the ``TORCH_LIBRARY`` API. This will automatically
+bind the operator to Python.
+
+
+If you also have a SYCL implementation of ``myaddmul``, you can also register it
+in a separate ``TORCH_LIBRARY_IMPL`` block:
+
+.. code-block:: cpp
+
+  // Copyright (c) 2025 Intel Corporation
+
+  #include <c10/xpu/XPUStream.h>
+  #include <sycl/sycl.hpp>
+  #include <ATen/Operators.h>
+  #include <torch/all.h>
+  #include <torch/library.h>
+
+  namespace sycl_extension {
+  // MulAdd Kernel: result = a * b + c
+  static void muladd_kernel(
+      int numel, const float* a, const float* b, float c, float* result,
+      const sycl::nd_item<1>& item) {
+      int idx = item.get_global_id(0);
+      if (idx < numel) {
+          result[idx] = a[idx] * b[idx] + c;
+      }
+  }
+
+  class MulAddKernelFunctor {
+  public:
+      MulAddKernelFunctor(int _numel, const float* _a, const float* _b, float _c, float* _result)
+          : numel(_numel), a(_a), b(_b), c(_c), result(_result) {}
+      void operator()(const sycl::nd_item<1>& item) const {
+          muladd_kernel(numel, a, b, c, result, item);
+      }
+
+  private:
+      int numel;
+      const float* a;
+      const float* b;
+      float c;
+      float* result;
+  };
+
+  at::Tensor mymuladd_xpu(const at::Tensor& a, const at::Tensor& b, double c) {
+      TORCH_CHECK(a.sizes() == b.sizes(), "a and b must have the same shape");
+      TORCH_CHECK(a.dtype() == at::kFloat, "a must be a float tensor");
+      TORCH_CHECK(b.dtype() == at::kFloat, "b must be a float tensor");
+      TORCH_CHECK(a.device().is_xpu(), "a must be an XPU tensor");
+      TORCH_CHECK(b.device().is_xpu(), "b must be an XPU tensor");
+
+      at::Tensor a_contig = a.contiguous();
+      at::Tensor b_contig = b.contiguous();
+      at::Tensor result = at::empty_like(a_contig);
+
+      const float* a_ptr = a_contig.data_ptr<float>();
+      const float* b_ptr = b_contig.data_ptr<float>();
+      float* res_ptr = result.data_ptr<float>();
+      int numel = a_contig.numel();
+
+      sycl::queue& queue = c10::xpu::getCurrentXPUStream().queue();
+      constexpr int threads = 256;
+      int blocks = (numel + threads - 1) / threads;
+
+      queue.submit([&](sycl::handler& cgh) {
+          cgh.parallel_for<MulAddKernelFunctor>(
+              sycl::nd_range<1>(blocks * threads, threads),
+              MulAddKernelFunctor(numel, a_ptr, b_ptr, static_cast<float>(c), res_ptr)
+          );
+      });
+
+      return result;
+  }
+  // Defines the operators
+  TORCH_LIBRARY(sycl_extension, m) {
+    m.def("mymuladd(Tensor a, Tensor b, float c) -> Tensor");
+  }
+
+  // ==================================================
+  // Register Sycl Implementations to Torch Library
+  // ==================================================
+  TORCH_LIBRARY_IMPL(sycl_extension, XPU, m) {
+      m.impl("mymuladd", &mymuladd_xpu);
+  }
+
+  } // namespace sycl_extension
+
+
+
+Create a Python Interface
+-------------------------
+
+Create a Python interface for our operator in the ``sycl_extension/ops.py`` file:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+  import torch
+  from torch import Tensor
+  __all__ = ["mymuladd"]
+
+  def mymuladd(a: Tensor, b: Tensor, c: float) -> Tensor:
+      """Performs a * b + c in an efficient fused kernel"""
+      return torch.ops.sycl_extension.mymuladd.default(a, b, c)
+
+Initialize Package
+------------------
+
+Create ``sycl_extension/__init__.py`` file to make the package importable:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+  import ctypes
+  from pathlib import Path
+
+  import torch
+
+  current_dir = Path(__file__).parent.parent
+  build_dir = current_dir / "build"
+  so_files = list(build_dir.glob("**/*.so"))
+
+  assert len(so_files) == 1, f"Expected one _C*.so file, found {len(so_files)}"
+
+  with torch._ops.dl_open_guard():
+      loaded_lib = ctypes.CDLL(so_files[0])
+
+  from . import ops
+
+  __all__ = [
+      "loaded_lib",
+      "ops",
+  ]
+
+Testing sycl extension operator
+-------------------
+
+Use simple test to verify that the operator works correctly.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+  import torch
+  from torch.testing._internal.common_utils import TestCase
+  import unittest
+  import sycl_extension
+
+  def reference_muladd(a, b, c):
+      return a * b + c
+
+  class TestMyMulAdd(TestCase):
+      def sample_inputs(self, device, *, requires_grad=False):
+          def make_tensor(*size):
+              return torch.randn(size, device=device, requires_grad=requires_grad)
+
+          def make_nondiff_tensor(*size):
+              return torch.randn(size, device=device, requires_grad=False)
+
+          return [
+              [make_tensor(3), make_tensor(3), 1],
+              [make_tensor(20), make_tensor(20), 3.14],
+              [make_tensor(20), make_nondiff_tensor(20), -123],
+              [make_nondiff_tensor(2, 3), make_tensor(2, 3), -0.3],
+          ]
+
+      def _test_correctness(self, device):
+          samples = self.sample_inputs(device)
+          for args in samples:
+              result = sycl_extension.ops.mymuladd(*args)
+              expected = reference_muladd(*args)
+              torch.testing.assert_close(result, expected)
+
+      @unittest.skipIf(not torch.xpu.is_available(), "requires Intel GPU")
+      def test_correctness_xpu(self):
+          self._test_correctness("xpu")
+
+  if __name__ == "__main__":
+      unittest.main()
+
+This test checks the correctness of the custom operator by comparing its output against a reference implementation.
+
