DeepSeek-V4 MoE NaN Reproduction Test
Finds where NaN originates in the MoE forward pass.
Tests the EXACT CuTeDSLMoERunner code path used by vLLM.
Tests individual experts (gate+up+down) with the CuTeDSL NVFP4 linear runner.
Then tests the grouped GEMM MoE runner with stacked weights.
This test is the FIRST step: if the MoE produces NaN, the entire model
produces garbage. We need to find the NaN source before anything else matters.
Test plan:
1. Load MoE weights for a single layer
2. Run the CuTeDSLMoERunner with various token counts and routing patterns
3. Check for NaN at each step: quantize → L1 GEMM → SiLU → L2 GEMM → combine
4. Specifically test with MegaMoE shapes: 48 experts (EP8), padded to 128 rows
Key insight: DeepSeek-V4 is a MegaMoE with 384 experts.
The NaN might come from:
1. Weight loading / quantization
2. Activation quantization (quantize_activation_nvfp4)
3. The grouped GEMM kernel
4. The combine/scatter step
