📌 Description

This commit adds the missing include of the header decode.cuh in the JIT binding csrc/batch_decode.cu, without this fix, there will be linking error when linking batch_decode.o, batch_decode_kernel.o and batch_decode_jit_binding.o.

The reason is that, csrc/batch_decode.cu relies on scheduler.cuh for decoding attention planning. scheduler.cuh declares the decode kernel of BatchDecodeWithPagedKVCacheKernel, which is implemented in decode.cuh, but does not include decode.cuh. Therefore, if csrc/batch_decode.cu does not include decode.cuh, the decode kernel will be a symbol that is declared but not implemented.

Reviewer Notes

N/A

This commit adds the missing include of the header `decode.cuh`
in the JIT binding `csrc/batch_decode.cu`, without this fix,
there will be linking error when linking `batch_decode.o`,
`batch_decode_kernel.o` and `batch_decode_jit_binding.o`.

The reason is that, `csrc/batch_decode.cu` relies on `scheduler.cuh`
for decoding attention planning. `scheduler.cuh` declares the decode
kernel of `BatchDecodeWithPagedKVCacheKernel`, which is implemented
in `decode.cuh`, but does not include `decode.cuh`.  Therefore,
if `csrc/batch_decode.cu` does not include `decode.cuh`, the decode
kernel will be a symbol that is declared but not implemented.

Summary of Changes

Hello @MasterJH5574, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses a specific build-time linking error by introducing a necessary header inclusion in csrc/batch_decode.cu. The change ensures that a kernel function's implementation is correctly linked, resolving a dependency chain where a declaration was present but its definition was not accessible to the compilation unit, thus preventing compilation failures.

Highlights

  • Linking Error Fix: Resolved a linking error that occurred during the compilation of JIT binding components (batch_decode.o, batch_decode_kernel.o, batch_decode_jit_binding.o) by ensuring all necessary header dependencies are met.
  • Header Inclusion: Added the missing #include <flashinfer/attention/decode.cuh> to csrc/batch_decode.cu. This ensures that the implementation of BatchDecodeWithPagedKVCacheKernel, declared in scheduler.cuh and relied upon by csrc/batch_decode.cu, is properly available during linking.

Code Review

This pull request correctly addresses a linking error by adding the missing #include <flashinfer/attention/decode.cuh> in csrc/batch_decode.cu. The change is straightforward and effective. My review includes one suggestion for a potential follow-up to improve code maintainability by moving the include to a more appropriate location to better reflect the dependency between headers.

This commit reverts changes in flashinfer-ai#1802, and adds a new method
`get_object_paths` to JITSpec, which returns the paths of all
compiled object files. For applications that want to get the object
files rather than the loaded shared library (such as MLC model
compilation), this method could be leveraged.
