📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughAdds CAKE KDA packed T=1 CUDA kernels with validated TVM FFI bindings, JIT and AOT generation, alignment-aware dispatch, legacy fallback, and coverage for selection, compilation metadata, tensor contracts, streams, and outputs. ChangesCAKE KDA packed T=1
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This PR adds optimized SM100 packed KDA decode dispatch and generated kernels. One variant allocates more dynamic shared memory than it uses, which may reduce occupancy, and the launch mapping lacks a compile-time consistency check that could make a future variant mismatch unsafe. The risks are localized and the PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

SMEM_STATE_SMEM_STRIDEis 4096 and the main loop addresses four stages through(chunk + 4 - 1) % 4 * 4096, so the state stages occupy bytes 0 through 16383.v_smemstarts at 16128, inside state stage 3.

Nothing ties each frozen body's value-tile mapping to CAKE_KDA_PACKED_T1_VALUE_TILES. The binding launches grid.x = kHeads * CAKE_KDA_PACKED_T1_VALUE_TILES and each body independently decodes blockIdx.x into value_tile and hv with a hard-coded divisor. The binding's static_assert accepts 1, 2, 8, and 16, so any mispairing compiles and then reads A_log, state, and out outside the head range. Add a per-body compile-time assertion of the expected tile count, or generate the divisor from the same macro.

The declared v_smem region overlaps the last state stage in five variants. In each file the state ring uses N stages, N * SMEM_STATE_SMEM_STAGE_BYTES equals SMEM_TOTAL, and SMEM_V_SMEM_OFF sits 256 bytes below SMEM_TOTAL, inside the final stage. The generator appears to compute SMEM_V_SMEM_OFF as if the ring held one fewer stage. None of these five variants read v_smem, so there is no live corruption today. The two v-prefetch variants show the correct layout: csrc/kda/cake_kda_packed_t1_cpasync_tile128_v_private_prefetch.cu declares SMEM_TOTAL 20736 for a 20480-byte ring plus a 256-byte v region, with no overlap. Fix the offset computation in the generator so a future variant that enables v prefetch on one of these schedules does not corrupt state.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
The generator emits unreachable branches in the cp.async.wait_group depth cascade. In both ILP4 variants the leading if (chunk < K) test already covers the chunk values that the following else if branches test. I traced both cascades and the effective wait depths match the committed group counts, so neither kernel is incorrect today. The shared root cause is that the cascade emitter does not prune branches when the chunk count is small, which produces impossible tests and hides the real depth schedule.

Reduce the dynamic shared-memory allocation to two stages.
The prefetch guard is unreachable, and only stages 0 and 1 are accessed. The binding requests 24576 bytes, although the kernel uses only 16384 bytes. Set smem_bytes for cpasync_tile64_ilp4 to 16384.

Update the smem_bytes configuration for cpasync_tile64_ilp4 to 16384 bytes,
matching its two-stage shared-memory usage; leave the kernel’s prefetch logic
unchanged.

Derive the tail-copy offsets from shared constants.
gen_cake_kda_packed_t1_module regenerates only the binding CU and includes the frozen body unchanged. A stage-size or chunk-count change can leave the hardcoded 48, 12288, and 4096 offsets out of sync. Derive these offsets from shared constants, or validate them in the JIT tests.

We should improve the exporting script and refactor all these generated kernels in a standalone follow-up PR.

…lashinfer-ai#4562) Related to flashinfer-ai#4254. This PR adds a frozen generated-kernel portfolio and qualified batch selector for serving-native fixed-H12/D128 packed KDA decode on the SM100 family. It keeps the existing `packed_kda_decode` API and preserves caller-stream execution, row-strided beta, indexed/noncompact recurrent state, inactive graph-padding rows, caller-owned output, and CUDA graph replay. Inputs outside the optimized alignment bands continue through the existing packed KDA implementation. Performance was measured against flashinfer-ai#4417 with cold-L2 CUPTI `bench_gpu_time`. The ratio is the geometric mean over batches 1, 8, 15, 16, 17, 18, 24, 25, 37, 38, 48, 64, 80, 81, 96, 128, 144, 145, 152, 153, 192, 256, and 512; values above 1 favor this PR. Each batch used six alternating pairs and five independent state/output instances per arm after a duration-calibrated 100 ms graph warmup. | GPU | CC / SMs | flashinfer-ai#4417 / this PR geomean | Row wins | Paired wins | Max output error | Max state error | | --- | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | | B200 | 10.0 / 148 | 1.0167x | 17/23 | 93/138 | 6.10e-05 | 9.77e-04 | | GB200 | 10.0 / 152 | 1.0203x | 18/23 | 102/138 | 6.10e-05 | 9.77e-04 | | B300 | 10.3 / 148 | 1.0309x | 20/23 | 110/138 | 6.10e-05 | 9.77e-04 | | GB300 | 10.3 / 152 | 1.0408x | 21/23 | 121/138 | 6.10e-05 | 9.77e-04 | Validation covers all 12 generated variants, selector boundaries and fail-closed alignment routing, BF16/D128 numerical checks, state/output mutation contracts, current-stream execution, CUDA graph replay, AOT registration, and changed-file formatting/type checks. B200 and B300 runs also include compute-sanitizer synccheck and memcheck. An end-to-end stack check combined the native H4 unbounded path from [flashinfer-ai#4535](flashinfer-ai#4535), this PR, and SGLang [#34946](sgl-project/sglang#34946), then ran Kimi-Linear-48B-A3B-Instruct at TP8/local-H4 on eight B200 GPUs. Repeated same-node arms exposed a large first-use compilation/cache effect: the first Cake and Triton measurements were 25,649.12 and 24,320.67 token/s, while later hot-cache measurements were 30,734.67 and 30,371.90 token/s (`1.0119x`). The hot Cake/Triton rows used the same 64-request workload (63,573 input and 8,997 output tokens), nominal 2,048 input / 256 output tokens, concurrency 32, and cache flush. Mean TTFT was 105.94 versus 114.73 ms, mean TPOT 5.992 versus 6.016 ms, and peak eight-GPU memory 1,370,960 versus 1,373,968 MiB. A separate 200-example five-shot GSM8K check scored 0.895 versus 0.890; both exceeded 0.88, with stop token `163586` observed for 200/200 Cake and 198/200 Triton responses (the remaining two Triton responses reached the valid 512-token cap). Diagnostic replay recorded zero fallback, fatal outcomes, or input copies. Kimi-Linear TP8 uses four local heads, while this PR's new packed portfolio is fixed H12. No `cake_kda_packed_t1` module was built in the serving run, so these results validate stack compatibility and correct the earlier one-shot cold-start comparison; they do not attribute an end-to-end speedup to the H12 kernels in this PR.
