793e3243d5 README + MEMORY: update Stage C status to single-tile only, document multi-tile blocker
- Stage C works for n=128 (0.993) but multi-tile (n>128) is broken
- Root cause: tBgK slice hardcodes GMEM iteration to tile 0
- CuTeDSL TMA copy doesn't accept Python int as tile index
- Mike's combined K+V barrier fix compiles but deadlocks at runtime
- Fallback: kh.count // 2 (untested)

Also: TMEM layout for Stage C, key lessons from A&B.

  FMHA V reconstruction, TMEM layout diagram, softmax store pattern, updated footguns
- Kernel README: focused on the bug, fix, and current test status
- Key lesson documented: NEVER use find_tmem_tensor_col_offset() as O placement

750f1f09c9 README: Bug 4 ROOT CAUSE CONFIRMED - V SMEM 1 K-tile + PV 8 K-phases mismatch. Zero-pad V workaround correct. 2026-05-21 09:59:37 +00:00
50e9b5da81 README: Bug 4 corrected — NOT TMEM alias. A-fragment identical for all PV sizes. Real bug in V/B or output C/D. 2026-05-21 09:47:08 +00:00
5e37ea56e4 FOOTGUN #0: num_tma_load_bytes MUST include V bytes. Fix v27, v29, comment all. Update README. 2026-05-21 07:13:14 +00:00
b9b1b808a5 README: update with v28/v29 deadlock investigation, FMHA softmax bridge trace, new footguns 2026-05-21 06:46:02 +00:00
a7fd2761df README: Bug 4 root cause — TMEM layout mismatch (128,64) PV A-fragment vs softmax P write
- (128,64) PV MMA A-fragment has N_MMA=64, reads P with wrong stride
- Softmax writes P with QK C-fragment layout (N_MMA=128)
- O[m,d] ≈ P[m,2d] — every other column effect confirmed
- All-ones and single-element V pass (uniform/sparse data hides mismatch)
- epi_tile must use PV cta_tile (partial fix: 0.01 → 0.876)
- Added footguns #9 (TMEM alias N_MMA match) and #10 (epi_tile)
- Added diagnostic test results to test table
2026-05-21 05:17:12 +00:00
0dc6fe4a7d Stage B progress: PV works for square (128,128), broken for (128,64)
- Bug 1 (V MN-major): Fix applied
- Bug 2 (softmax packing): Confirmed correct (V=I test: cosine 1.0)
- Bug 3 (ACCUMULATE): Fix applied (first PV must overwrite, not accumulate)
- Bug 4 (CURRENT): PV MMA broken for non-square output
  - (128,128) PV with random V: cosine 0.999999 
  - (128,64) PV with MN-major V: cosine ~0.01 
  - Softmax packing, layout aliasing, pipeline ordering all verified correct
  - Root cause unknown — likely epilogue/V layout/MMA tiler issue

Added test_pv_diag.py (V=I and random V, 128x128 output — PASS)
Added test_layout_compare.py (TMEM layout inspection)
Added test_inspect_types.py (TMEM pointer arithmetic verification)
Updated test_mma_si_pv.py with head_dim param, pv_mma_tiler_mn fix, ACCUMULATE fix
Updated READMEs with current state

7a8945eb76 Stage B: pipeline deadlock fixed, V MN-major applied, PV output garbage
Pipeline deadlock fixed:
- No cta_layout_vmnk on mma_si PipelineUmmaAsync
- TMA warp excluded from tmem.wait_for_alloc
- PipelineTmaStore (not TmaStorePipeline)

Bug 1 (V MN-major): fix applied
- PV MMA uses v_major=OperandMajorMode.MN
- V shaped (64,128) strides(1,64) via as_strided

Bug 2 (softmax packing): C-fragment composition store applied
- FP32 to BF16 packing works
- St32x32bOp uses Float32 (not BFloat16)

Bug 3 (PV garbage): investigating
- PV MMA cosine ~0.01 against reference
- Suspected TMEM layout mismatch between softmax P store and PV A-fragment read

Test results:
- test_mma_si_only: cosine 0.999999 PASS
- test_mma_si_pv: cosine 0.01 FAIL (pipeline works, PV output wrong)
2026-05-21 04:10:07 +00:00
467ade37b2 Stage B: C-fragment vs A-fragment TMEM layout mismatch diagnosed
Key finding: C-fragment and A-fragment use different physical TMEM address
mappings. St32x32bOp with C-fragment writes to C-layout addresses, but PV MMA
reads from A-layout addresses. Forward FMHA recast validated FP16 only, not BF16.

Working: FP32 ld/st roundtrip, BF16 elemwise, BF16 recast ld S0->st S1 (all cos 0.999999)
Broken: C-frag st + A-frag read (NaN), A-frag store + PV MMA (cos -0.02)
Next: Fix register data flow (128 FP16/thread load vs 64 BF16/thread store mismatch)
2026-05-21 00:12:47 +00:00
97656a5cd1 Stage B: two MMAs + identity softmax — crash fixed, softmax output still wrong
Key fixes:
- PipelineUmmaAsync consumer group: 32*4=128 threads (not 4 warps)
- TMEM offsets computed from find_tmem_tensor_col_offset (not hardcoded)
- P fragment from p_tmem_s.outer + make_fragment_A (matching fmha.py)
- V SMEM aliasing via recast_ptr

Status:
- Stage A: cosine 0.999999 
- Stage B: runs without crash, identity softmax cosine -0.02 
- Diagnostics: TMEM layout inspection, bisection results

bbba289bd8 feat: GPU-native SWA + sparse decode attention kernels (CuTeDSL)
- native_swa_decode.py: BlackwellSWADecodeKernel
  - CTA mapping: 1 CTA per (decode_token, q_head_group)
  - Online softmax with KV tile streaming (16 tokens/tile)
  - Pre-dequantized bf16 KV (fp8 dequant on host - MLIR cvt_fpext
    requires 32-bit aligned vector, no scalar fp8->bf16 support)
  - Cosine 0.9999+ vs PyTorch batched SDPA reference
  - Fallback _fallback_batched_sdp when CuTeDSL unavailable

- native_sparse_decode.py: BlackwellSparseDecodeKernel
  - Combined SWA + compressed KV in single attention pass
  - Supports CSA (cr=4) and HCA (cr=128) layers
  - Sink weight merge on host side
  - Cosine 0.9999+ vs combined SDPA reference

- fp8_bf16.py: Documents MLIR limitation (cvt_fpext requires
  vector<4xf8>, no scalar support). Pre-dequant is the workaround.

- vLLM wiring (attention.py):
  - SWA-only layers: native_swa_decode_attention
  - CSA/HCA layers: native_sparse_decode_attention with topk + attn_sink
  - csa_attention.py updated to use native kernels

- Tests: test_decode_pipeline.py, test_sparse_decode.py both passing

aa8563c626 Fused SwiGLU epilogue with granularity-8 weight interleave
- Fix interleave_l1_weights: remove //2 bug (g=granularity_bf16 for N-axis)
- Apply L1 weight+SF interleave in runner._ensure_stacked() and moe_pipeline
- De-interleave L1 GEMM output before gate/up split
- Fused SwiGLU kernel: epi_tile=(128,8) for subtile-level pairing
  - Even subtiles = gate: SiLU in FP32 registers, save to register buffer
  - Odd subtiles = up: silu(gate)*up from buffer
  - Both branches produce same BF16 tensor type (CuTeDSL constraint)
- run_nvfp4_moe_fused() pipeline: fused L1 + PyTorch L2
- Runner: fused_swiglu=True option for CuTeDSLMoERunner
- Layertest: both fused and non-fused paths PASS (cosine 0.988)
- README.md updated with current status and lessons learned
2026-05-20 04:13:52 +00:00
57d4cb714f docs: rewrite README.md with current project state

- Document weight interleave and register layout
- Capture key lessons learned
- Update file structure and test inventory

9908fd64d9 feat: CUTLASS NVFP4 mega_moe kernel — slot-based L1/L2, source-first SF remap
Major changes from initial TileLang prototype:

Kernel:
- CUTLASS NVFP4 block-scaled GEMM (SM100 Blackwell, OpClassBlockScaledTensorOp)
- Slot-based dispatch: L1 GEMM → SiLU+Mul per-slot → L2 GEMM → index_add scatter
- 1D slot_expert_ids passed to both L1 and L2 (no 2D topk_ids rebuild)
- slot_token gathered in cutlass_grouped_nvfp4_gemm when provided

SF Remap (source-first):
- Iterates logical (m, k_sf) source grid, uses layout_sf(make_coord(m, k_sf))
  for CUTLASS dest index — no idx2crd/flatten coordinate extraction
- 2D kernel launch: dim3 block(32,8), grid over (K_sf, MN)
- Uses cute::cosize() for physical allocation size (not cute::size)
- SFA: (MN, K_sf) row-major; SFB: (K_sf, MN) row-major (col-major)

Weight transform:
- UE4M3 unpack with bit reinterpret (not value cast)
- Global scale folding (weight_scale_2) for gate/up split
- clamp(0,448) → float8_e4m3fn, transpose (N,K)→(K,N) for CUTLASS

No prepack cache:
- SFB remapped per-call inside CUTLASS (~µs, not the bottleneck)
- See README for why prepack cache must never return (OOM, CUDA graphs,
  M-dependent layout, cross-layer collisions)

Stage activation:
- Nearest-neighbor E2M1 quantization (no clamp, no uniform steps)
- Per-tensor global scale → alpha for L2 GEMM

Bug fixes:
- _fold_global_scale: removed broken logical_widths branch
- unpack_ue4m3_u32: int32 for CUDA bitwise, view not to, ND support
- Correct expert param mapping for NVFP4 checkpoint
- SiLU applied per-slot (not after summing expert paths)
