From ecbc75255cbcd4cb36ab2733c7b2f5725f6f75e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: biondizzle Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 08:07:52 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix: correct UMMA descriptor format from CUTLASS source The descriptor bitfield is completely different from what I assumed: - [0,14) start_address (smem_ptr >> 4) - [16,30) leading_byte_offset (row stride bytes >> 4) - [32,46) stride_byte_offset - [46,48) version = 1 (Blackwell) - [61,64) layout_type (0=NONE, 2=128B, 4=64B, 6=32B) - idescE = desc >> 32, passed as separate arg to MMA PTX The 64-bit descriptor uses byte offsets (not log2 or element counts). The upper 32 bits are reinterpreted by the MMA hardware as idescE. --- dsv4/kernels/attention/fmha_qk_verify.cuh | 4 +- dsv4/kernels/attention/fmha_umma_desc.cuh | 206 ++++++++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 136 insertions(+), 74 deletions(-) diff --git a/dsv4/kernels/attention/fmha_qk_verify.cuh b/dsv4/kernels/attention/fmha_qk_verify.cuh index 989d11b0..ba0aa21b 100644 --- a/dsv4/kernels/attention/fmha_qk_verify.cuh +++ b/dsv4/kernels/attention/fmha_qk_verify.cuh @@ -84,8 +84,8 @@ fmha_qk_verify( } __syncthreads();
