 - `LLVM_ENABLE_TIMING` dumps the timing information for each LLVM pass.
 - `TRITON_DEFAULT_FP_FUSION` overrides the default behavior of allowing fp fusion (mul+add->fma).
 - `MLIR_ENABLE_REMARK` enables the performance warnings that are emitted as remarks.
+- `TRITON_KERNEL_DUMP` enables the dumping of the IR from each compilation stage and the final ptx.
+- `TRITON_DUMP_DIR` specifies the directory to save the dumped IR and ptx when `TRITON_KERNEL_DUMP` is set to 1.
+- `TRITON_KERNEL_OVERRIDE` enables the override of the compiled kernel with a user-specified IR/ptx at the beginning of each compilation stage.
+- `TRITON_OVERRIDE_DIR` specifies the directory from which to load the IR/ptx files when `TRITON_KERNEL_OVERRIDE` is set to 1.

+**Kernel Override Steps**

+```bash
+export TRITON_ALWAYS_COMPILE=1
+export TRITON_KERNEL_DUMP=1
+export TRITON_DUMP_DIR=<dump_dir>
+export TRITON_KERNEL_OVERRIDE=1
+export TRITON_OVERRIDE_DIR=<override_dir>
+# Step 1: Run the kernel once to dump kernel's IRs and ptx in $TRITON_DUMP_DIR
+# Step 2: Copy $TRITON_DUMP_DIR/<kernel_hash> to $TRITON_OVERRIDE_DIR
+# Step 3: Delete the stages that you do not want to override and modify the stage you do want to override
+# Step 4: Run the kernel again to see the overridden result
+```
