@@ -10,32 +10,30 @@ Two structural rules we had to learn the hard way:
(B) Hand-constructed TMEM load/store atoms (Ld32x32bOp + St32x32bOp built
independently) DO NOT preserve register tile shape across a round-trip.
Use paired atoms (or, as we discovered: independently constructed atoms
DO work if they're built from the SAME `Repetition(N)` count — the
Ld32x32bOp(Rep(16)) + St32x32bOp(Rep(16)) pair preserves the register
tile shape exactly because the atom width matches). This is what the
CUTLASS Blackwell FMHA reference does in `correction_rescale`.
(C) Multi-tile GMEM indexing: `kt` from cutlass.range constant-folds at trace
time, so all TMA loads address tile 0. Workaround: track an Int32
coordinate manually, BUT seed it from an SSA expression
(`n_kv_tiles - n_kv_tiles`) rather than a literal `Int32(0)`, so the JIT
sees it as a runtime register and propagates the `+= 1` as a tracked
loop-carried iter_args update.
A no-op TMEM-load-then-TMEM-store visibly corrupts data. Use the paired
atoms from `utils.sm100.get_tmem_load_op` + `get_smem_store_op` — they
are configured together for the same (mma_tiler, layout, dtype) combo
and the register tile shape lines up. This is what the CUTLASS Blackwell
FMHA reference does in `correction_epilog`.
Kernel structure:
1. Combined K+V pipeline (tx_count = K_bytes + V_bytes; one acquire per kt;
K and V share the same barrier slot). SMEM slot via kvh.index, GMEM via
manually-tracked kv_coord (SSA-seeded).
the cutlass.range loop variable.
2. Reference-style scaled epilogue: TMEM correction_rescale (O *= 1/row_sum
via paired Ld32x32b + St32x32b atoms), then standard epilogue_tma_store
to send O from TMEM through SMEM to GMEM.
2. Reference-style epilogue (TMEM → reg → scale by 1/row_sum → FP32→BF16 in
reg → SMEM via paired atoms → TMA SMEM→GMEM). One pass, no TMEM
round-trip, no `epilogue_tma_store` helper. Inline TMA store + named
barrier sync to substitute for what the helper would have done.
3. Per-tile O rescale (multiplying existing O by exp2(old_max - new_max)
before PV[kt]) lives in the softmax warp BEFORE softmax_done_bar.arrive().
Reuses the same paired-atom pattern as the final normalize.
3. Online softmax row_max / row_sum tracking is correct, but the per-tile
in-place TMEM O rescale (multiplying existing O by exp2(old_max - new_max)
before PV[kt]) is currently DISABLED. Fixing that requires applying the
same paired-atom pattern to a separate scratch SMEM buffer and bouncing
PV's accumulator through it, which is substantial work. For now, the
kernel is correct when row_max growth across tiles is mild. Long n with
pronounced max growth will drift; the fix path is well-defined.
4. final_o_bar (32 MMA + 128 softmax threads). MMA arrives between
acc_pipe.producer_commit and producer_tail; softmax arrives_and_waits

# - kt from cutlass.range constant-folds at trace time → all TMA

# - Manual kv_coord works IF its initial value is an SSA Int32
# (a runtime register) rather than a literal Int32(0).
# `n_kv_tiles - n_kv_tiles` is an opaque SSA zero — n_kv_tiles is
# itself an SSA value from cute.size(gK, mode=[3]). With the seed
# in SSA, the JIT treats kv_coord as a tracked loop-carried iter
# variable and propagates `kv_coord = kv_coord + 1` properly.
# - Read kv_coord BEFORE the increment; assignment via `=` (not
# augmented `+=`) avoids any in-place mutation ambiguity.
# GMEM tile coordinate: use the cutlass.range induction variable kt
# directly. CuTeDSL's `cutlass.range` doesn't auto-detect a Python `+=`
# rebinding as a loop-carried iter_args update — the JIT traces the
# body once and captures whatever value `kv_coord` had at trace time,
# so an outer `kv_coord = Int32(0)` plus a `kv_coord += 1` inside the
