…nter Root cause: every thread of every CTA called _atomic_add_u32 on the cross-CTA arrival counter, yielding 128 threads x 4 CTAs = 512 increments per call instead of 4. Only one thread across all 512 ever satisfied old_count == total_ctas_per_seq - 1, so Phase C ran with a single thread covering 40 of 5120 rows. The remaining 5080 rows of residual_output / rmsnorm_output stayed as torch.empty() garbage (~1.7e38), cascading to downstream layers as gibberish. Fix: thread 0 of each CTA bumps the counter and broadcasts "am I in the last-arriving CTA" via SMEM; all 128 threads of the last CTA then run Phase C. See kernel.py _kernel arrival-counter block. Required infra fixes bundled: - Qwen3_5DecoderLayer bypasses parent __init__, so the fusion-bind callback stash is duplicated in both Qwen3_5 and Qwen3Next decoder layers. - _try_bind_fusion self-sets self._fusion_bound = True; the callback path (process_weights_after_loading) discards the return value. - Fusion binding moved out of forward() to CutePagedAttentionImpl.process_weights_after_loading via the _fusion_bind_callback stash. AOT compile refuses @torch._dynamo.disable'd functions inside the traced forward. - Env-gated CUTE_DEBUG_FUSION=1 diagnostic in _backend.py compares kernel output against a Python-dequant W_O reference (Phase B) and residual+RMSNorm reference (Phase C). Default off, zero runtime cost. Verified on natfii/Qwen3.5-27B-NVFP4-Opus-GB10 (27B dense, SM121): - Eager fusion: 8/8 GSM8K at ~6.2s/Q - PIECEWISE CUDA graphs + fusion: 8/8 GSM8K at ~2.3s/Q steady state - batch=1 single-seq: 11.2 tok/s - batch=4 aggregate: 43.6 tok/s (near-linear scaling) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…r-kernel Captures steady-state decode on Qwen3.5-27B NVFP4 under PIECEWISE CUDA graphs with fusion enabled. References fix commit 37cceaa. Key numbers (batch=4 x 128 tok under profiler): - CuTe fused A+B+C kernel: 425.9 us/call x 2032 calls = 865.4 ms (8.28%) - NVFP4 CUTLASS GEMM remains the dominant hot path: 75.92% of GPU time - PIECEWISE graph bookkeeping (cudaGraphLaunch + StreamIsCapturing): 18,292 host calls / 75.6 ms / 0.72% — visible but small - Aggregate throughput: 41.1 tok/s under profiler (43.6 without) Artifacts: - profiles/fused.pt.trace.json.gz (11.5 MB Chrome Tracing / Perfetto) - profiles/profiler_out_0.txt (human-readable kernel summary) - summary.md (top-15 kernels, reproduction steps, caveats) Captured via vLLM built-in torch profiler per .claude/skills/nsys-profile.

…tach_fusion API Establishes the nvllm subpackage ownership boundary for Qwen3.5: - New vllm/nvllm/models/qwen3_5.py — self-contained, introduces Qwen3_5Attention (inlined fusion-patched Qwen3NextAttention) and replaces the Qwen3NextDecoderLayer subclass with a self-contained Qwen3_5DecoderLayer (full __init__ + forward). Qwen3_5Model no longer subclasses Qwen3NextModel either. - vllm/model_executor/models/qwen3_5.py becomes a 15-line shim so the registry, colqwen3_5, and qwen3_5_mtp keep resolving existing paths without touching registry.py. - CutePagedAttentionImpl gains attach_fusion(parent_layer) + _resolve_fusion_weights(). Fusion state + per-forward gating (decode+boundary) live only on impl. _fusion_bind_callback / _try_bind_fusion removed. bind_fusion_weights commented (not deleted) for reference until a future cleanup commit. - Per-forward gate adds num_actual_tokens <= max_num_seqs check (code-review A3) — prevents out-of-range writes to pre-allocated buffers. Sizes passed explicitly at attach time (code-review I1). - _resolve_fusion_weights stores MODULE refs not tensor refs (code-review C1), no short-circuit on _fusion_bound (C2 — supports live weight reload via layerwise.py). BF16 serve gated by hasattr(o_proj, 'weight_global_scale') (H2). - MTP layers opt out: 'if \"mtp\" in prefix: return' at start of attach_fusion (code-review G3). - vllm/model_executor/models/qwen3_next.py reverted to upstream commit 494636b — no fusion wiring remains on upstream code. - tools/pre_commit/mypy.py: add vllm/nvllm/models to mypy EXCLUDE (matches vllm/model_executor/models policy). Tier-1 validation: notebooks/nvllm/fusion_bind_tests.ipynb — 5 host-side tests (NVFP4 happy-path, BF16 skip, double-resolve rebind identity, buffer pointer stability across attach, per-forward gate boundary). All pass on host, CPU tensors. Tier-3 validation: nvllm:gb10-ots image, served Qwen3.5-27B-NVFP4-Opus-GB10 under PIECEWISE CUDA graphs. GSM8K 8/8 (100%) twice, matching fusion-ship baseline 37cceaa. CUTE_DEBUG_FUSION=1 decode log confirms Phase B close=True and Phase C close_h=True close_r=True across 1920 fused decode steps (evidence: benchmarks/nvllm/traces/cute_fusion/2026-04-17-own-the-stack/).

Each of the 16 full_attention layers in Qwen3.5-27B attaches its own PhaseE_Beta_Kernel instance with its own `self._compiled_phase_coop_full = None`, so `cute.compile()` fires once per layer on first request — 16 × ~23 s ≈ ~6 min cold-start stall. Fix: module-level `_PHASE_E_COOP_FULL_COMPILE_CACHE` keyed by the tuple of all 22 `self.` constexprs read inside `_jit_launch_phase_0_to_4` (audited via grep; key covers them all + 12 safe-redundant derived fields). Instances with matching config share one compiled kernel. Evidence (`benchmarks/nvllm/traces/phase_e_1/2026-04-24-coop-compile-cache/`): - 16 β-coop attachments → 1 compile event (was 16). - Cold Q1 = 79.4 s (compile + decode); warm Q2-Q8 = 22.7-23.2 s each. - Projected savings ≈ 310 s (~5 min) shaved off first-request latency. - GSM8K sanity PASS 7/8 (Q2 is a regex-extractor artifact on '120/12', not a kernel regression — reproduces on baseline without this fix). Unit tests (`tests/kernels/cute/test_phase_e_compile_cache.py`): - 6 new tests covering dict existence, key equivalence for matching configs, key distinctness for different configs, 16-instance → 1-compile behavior, distinct-config → N-compiles, and back-compat instance attr population. - 33/33 existing Phase E tests still pass. Next in Phase E.1: #3 record_function spans (this PR), #2 β-coop SMEM shrink + #4 matched-concurrency baseline bench (follow-up session), #5 cudaProfilerApi hook (infra).

The existing Phase E baseline leg ran concurrent=4 max_tokens=256 while β-lite ran concurrent=8 max_tokens=64 (per Caveat #1 in benchmarks/nvllm/traces/phase_e/2026-04-23-initial/summary.md). The per-kernel μs comparison wasn't apples-to-apples. This script re-captures a baseline leg (CUTE_PHASE_E_FUSION=0) at the same workload as the β-lite leg — num_seqs=8, concurrent=8, max_tokens=64, warmup=4, timed=5 — so β-lite vs baseline kernel-duration deltas can be read directly from the CSVs produced by extract_e2e_kernels.py. Mirrors the structure of capture_beta_only.sh (same profiler config, memory watchdog, readiness gate, CUPTI flush delay). Runs on the current nvllm:gb10 image; FUSION=0 bypasses all Phase E code paths so no rebuild is required for this leg. Output: benchmarks/nvllm/traces/phase_e_1/2026-04-24-baseline-matched/ Evidence bundle (summary.md + kernel CSV) lands in the follow-up session that ships E.1 #2 (β-coop SMEM shrink).

…ched concurrency Matched-concurrency baseline (CUTE_PHASE_E_FUSION=0, num_seqs=8) vs existing β-lite leg. Same model, PIECEWISE, FP8 KV, active_iterations=200. Finding: Phase_D_MLP_Kernel fires 2× per full_attn layer per decode step in β-lite (n_calls=2016) vs 1× in baseline (n_calls=1008). Per-call MLP is 13.5% faster (90,408 vs 104,499 μs), but the 2× firing swamps the win. Net: +76,349 μs/layer/step, i.e. +62.8% slower per-full-attn-layer decode cost. Raises Phase E.1 #2 (β-coop SMEM shrink → num_seqs≥2) priority from "lower leverage if num_seqs=1 is 95%" to "regression fix for the user's steady-state workload." See memory updates for num_seqs=2 target. Extends .gitignore to mirror the phase_e/** policy to phase_e_1/** (raw .pt.trace.json.gz local-only; CSV + logs + md + txt + json committed) plus pre-ships phase_f/** rules for upcoming Phase F.1.

…_5RMSNorm β-lite kernel at mlp_kernel.py:1502 multiplied by raw γ; Qwen3_5RMSNorm semantics are x * (1 + γ). Bug latent because consume branch at qwen3_5.py:473 dead-branches under PIECEWISE, so wrong output was orphaned (see project_phase_e_phantom_speedup). Also fixes the reference harness at docs/research/2026-04-22-phase-e-repro.py:32 which shared the same bug — new cross-reference test against Qwen3_5RMSNorm.forward_native added at tests/kernels/cute/test_phase_e2_beta_math.py. Test passes; existing test_phase_e_epsilon_epilogue.py β-lite path also passes. Two β-coop tests in that file now fail vs the (correct) reference — expected, fixed by Phase E.2 #2 (β-coop Phase 0 + Phase 4 audit).

Audit during Batch B execution found 6 additional raw-γ multiply sites beyond the plan's two targets. All are the same Qwen3_5RMSNorm semantic bug as β-lite Phase E.2 #1 (commit 98551db) — kernel uses raw γ where the model uses x*(1+γ) (vllm/nvllm/layers/layernorm.py:78). Same latent phantom-output pattern: the dead-branched _phase_e_consumed and _fusion_active gates orphan the wrong outputs today; Phase F.1 will unmask them. Sites fixed: phase_e_kernel.py 641 run_phase_0_only (Phase 0 input_layernorm — test-only) 855 run_phase_01_only Phase 0 (test-only) 1547 run_phase_01_only Phase C (test-only post-attn rmsnorm) 2629 run_phase_4_only (Phase 4 ε epilogue — test-only) 3281 run_beta_coop_full Phase 0 (PRODUCTION) 3952 run_beta_coop_full Phase C (PRODUCTION post-attn rmsnorm) 4648 run_beta_coop_full Phase 4 (PRODUCTION ε epilogue) kernel.py 1922 standalone DecodeKernel Phase C post-attn rmsnorm (PRODUCTION, called via paged_attention_forward from β-lite) Also fixes two bad references in test_phase_e_epsilon_epilogue.py (:157, :313) that mirrored the kernel bug — passed-against-wrong-ref. New cross-reference tests in test_phase_e2_beta_math.py exercise both β-coop kernels against Qwen3_5RMSNorm.{_forward_static_with_residual, _forward_static_no_residual} — match the β-lite test pattern. Test results (.venv pytest, .venv/bin/python -m pytest tests/kernels/cute/ test_phase_e2_beta_math.py tests/kernels/cute/test_phase_e_epsilon_epilogue.py): 14 passed, 0 failed (was 11 before Batch B).

Caps the 2026-04-24 session: 8 commits shipped (Phase E.2 math + F.1 opaque ops + decoder wiring + flashinfer pin bump), 27 tests green, β-lite GSM8K 8/8 PASS with autotune-disabled workaround. Blocked on Tasks 15b/16-19 by a deterministic upstream-class wedge: "Estimated CUDA graph memory: NEGATIVE" canary in gpu_model_runner.py appears just before flashinfer.jit.autotuner starts, then EngineCore silently dies and the host kernel-panics (3x this session). Crash is INDEPENDENT of Phase F.1 (proven by all-fusion-OFF bisect) and NOT fixed by upgrading flashinfer 0.6.3 → 0.6.7 (proven by commit 437d209 rebuild). Handoff doc captures: what's done, what's been tried/ruled out, ranked hypotheses for the next investigator, concrete next-session checklist (find yesterday's working image first; check vLLM gpu_model_runner.py:5962 git log; try clean flashinfer JIT cache; bisect-revert Phase E.2 #2 if all else fails). Workaround documented in memory:feedback_flashinfer_autotune_sm120 for future sessions until root cause is fixed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
