# MLA Common Components
This file implements common components for MLA implementations.
First we define:
Sq as Q sequence length
Skv as KV sequence length
MLA has two possible ways of computing, a data-movement friendly approach and a
compute friendly approach, we generally want to use the compute friendly
approach for "prefill" (i.e. the ratio Sq / Skv is "small", is near 1)
and the data-movement friendly approach for "decode" (i.e. the ratio
Sq / Skv is "large").
NOTE what we deem small and large is currently determined by if its labelled
prefill or decode by the scheduler, but this is something we should probably
tune.
Main reference: DeepseekV2 paper, and FlashInfer Implementation
(https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.04434 and https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer/pull/551).
Deepseek's MLA attention works the following way:
* Use a single latent vector to represent the per-token entry of the KV cache.
* For decode (i.e. the memory friendly approach) the attention "simulates" a
multi-head attention, while the compute is similar to multi-query attention.
Below is example of both paths assuming batchsize = 1
## More Extent Definitions:
C Context length, `Skv - Sq`
H hidden size
N number of attention heads
Lq latent dimension for Q 1536 in DSV3
Lkv latent dimension for K/V 512 in DSV3
P nope dimension, no rope. 128 in DSV3
R rope dimension, goes through rope. 64 in DSV3
V V head dim. 128 in DSV3
## Vector/Matrix Definitions
h_t hidden states (input to attention) shape [Sq, H]
q_c latent/compressed Q shape [Sq, Lq]
q_nope uncompressed Q (no-rope) shape [Sq, N, P]
q_pe uncompressed Q (rope) shape [Sq, N, R]
kv_c latent/compressed KV shape [Skv, Lkv]
k_pe decoupled k position embeddings shape [Skv, R]
new_kv_c new kv_c from current iter shape [Sq, Lkv]
new_k_pe new k_pe from current iter shape [Sq, R]
cache_kv_c cached k_c from previous iters shape [C, Lkv]
cache_k_pe cached k_pe from previous iters shape [C, R]
W_DQ project h_t to q_c shape [H, Lq]
W_UQ project q_c to q_nope shape [Lq, N * P]
W_QR project q_c to q_pe shape [Lq, N * R]
W_DKV project h_t to kv_c shape [H, Lkv]
W_UK project kv_c to k_nope shape [Lkv, N, P]
W_KR project h_t to k_pe shape [H, R]
W_UV project kv_c to v shape [Lkv, N, V]
W_O project v to h_t shape [N * V, H]
## Compute Friendly Approach (i.e. "forward_mha"):
q_c = h_t @ W_DQ
q_nope = (q_c @ W_UQ).view(Sq, N, P)
q_pe = RoPE(q_c @ W_QR).view(Sq, N, R)
new_kv_c = h_t @ W_DKV
new_k_pe = RoPE(h_t @ W_KR)
kv_c = torch.cat([new_kv_c, cache_kv_c], dim=0)
k_pe = torch.cat([new_k_pe, cache_k_pe], dim=0)
k_nope = (kv_c @ W_UK.view(Lkv, N * P)).view(Skv, N, P)
v = (kv_c @ W_UV.view(Lkv, N * V)).view(Skv, N, V)
// MHA with QK headdim = P + R
// V headdim = V
// spda_o shape [Sq, N, V]
spda_o = scaled_dot_product_attention(
torch.cat([q_nope, q_pe], dim=-1),
torch.cat([k_nope, k_pe.unsqueeze(1).expand(-1, N, -1)], dim=-1),
v
)
return spda_o @ W_O
NOTE: in the actual code,
`kv_b_proj` is [W_UK; W_UV] concatenated per head
`q_b_proj` is [W_UQ; W_QR] concatenated per head
`out_proj` is W_O
## Data-Movement Friendly Approach (i.e. "forward_mqa"):
Runtime
q_c = h_t @ W_DQ
q_nope = (q_c @ W_UQ).view(-1, N, P)
ql_nope = einsum("snh,lnh->snl", q, W_UK)
q_pe = RoPE(q_c @ W_QR).view(Sq, N, R)
new_kv_c = h_t @ W_DKV
new_k_pe = RoPE(h_t @ W_KR)
kv_c = torch.cat([new_kv_c, cache_kv_c], dim=0)
k_pe = torch.cat([new_k_pe, cache_k_pe], dim=0)
// MQA with QK headdim = Lkv + R
// V headdim = Lkv
// spda_o shape [Sq, N, Lkv]
// NOTE: this is less compute-friendly since Lkv > P
// but is more data-movement friendly since its MQA vs MHA
spda_o = scaled_dot_product_attention(
torch.cat([ql_nope, q_pe], dim=-1),
torch.cat([kv_c, k_pe], dim=-1),
kv_c
)
o = einsum("snl,lnv->snv", spda_o.reshape(-1, N, Lkv), W_UV)
return o.view(-1, N * V) @ self.num_heads @ W_O
## Chunked Prefill
For chunked prefill we want to use the compute friendly algorithm. We are
assuming sufficiently large Sq / Skv ratio, in the future may want to switch to
the data-movement friendly approach if the chunk (i.e. `Sq`) is small.
However, the compute-friendly approach can potentially run out of memory if Skv
is large due to: `k_nope = (kv_c @ W_UK).view(Skv, N, P)`
To mitigate this, we chunk the computation of attention with respect to the
current context (i.e. `cache_kv_c` and `cache_k_pe`) so that we can used a
fixed workspace size.
The chunked prefill approach is as follows:
MCC Max chunk of context to process per iter, computed dynamically,
used to bound the memory usage
q_c = h_t @ W_DQ
q_nope = (q_c @ W_UQ).view(Sq, N, P)
q_pe = RoPE(q_c @ W_QR).view(Sq, N, R)
new_kv_c = h_t @ W_DKV
new_k_pe = RoPE(h_t @ W_KR)
new_k_nope = (new_kv_c @ W_UK.view(Lkv, N * P)).view(Sq, N, P)
new_v = (new_kv_c @ W_UV.view(Lkv, N * V)).view(Sq, N, V)
// MHA between queries and new KV
// with QK headdim = P + R
// V headdim = V
// curr_o shape [Sq, N, V]
// curr_lse shape [N, Sq], this is just order FA returns
curr_o, curr_lse = scaled_dot_product_attention(
torch.cat([q_nope, q_pe], dim=-1),
torch.cat([new_k_nope, new_k_pe.unsqueeze(1).expand(-1, N, -1)], dim=-1),
new_v,
casual=True,
return_softmax_lse=True
)
// Compute attention with the already existing context
for chunk_idx in range(cdiv(C, MCC)):
chunk_start = chunk_idx * MCC
chunk_end = min(chunk_start + MCC, C)
Sc = chunk_end - chunk_start
cache_kv_c_chunk = cache_kv_c[chunk_start:chunk_end]
cache_k_pe_chunk = cache_k_pe[chunk_start:chunk_end]
cache_k_nope_chunk = (cache_kv_c_chunk @ W_UK).view(-1, N, P)
cache_v_chunk = (cache_kv_c_chunk @ W_UV).view(-1, N, V)
chunk_o, chunk_lse = scaled_dot_product_attention(
torch.cat([q_nope, q_pe], dim=-1),
torch.cat([cache_k_nope_chunk,
cache_k_pe_chunk.unsqueeze(1).expand(-1, N, -1)],
