Description

Add a new FlashInfer communication primitive, DCPDirectReduceWorkspace, beside the existing MNNVL DCP A2A path. It does not modify decode_cp_a2a_alltoall.

Each rank starts with partial attention Output/LSE for all heads against its local KV shard. Producers write only the destination-owned head shard into peer symmetric-memory buffers, publish a system-scope epoch signal, then the destination waits and does a stable FP32 LSE-weighted merge straight into either:

  • a workspace-backed view (combined_output[slot, :T]), or
  • caller-owned out / lse_out

No workspace-final to caller copy.

Hot path is three Triton kernels: tiled publish, system-release signal, then wait+combine.

fi_a2a is the existing FlashInfer decode_cp_a2a_alltoall kernel. This host reports NVML fabric support but cuMemCreate(FABRIC) returns CUDA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED (IMEX is not running in the container), so the bench uses the intra-node POSIX-fd MnnvlMemory handle path. Same kernel, different export/import handle type.

Do not claim end-to-end serving improvement from these operator numbers.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 36e85

This PR adds a cross-rank direct reduction path, but unresolved synchronization and graph-capture issues can hang reductions or select an unsafe execution backend, while tracing and benchmark paths may fail or mislead validation. The PR should not merge until these issues are fixed or explicitly accepted by owners.

Add DCPDirectReduceWorkspace: PyTorch symmetric-memory transport,
destination-owned source-indexed receive buffers, and a two-mode
zero-copy output contract (workspace view or caller-owned out).

Default hot path is three Triton kernels (tiled publish, system-release
signal, vectorized wait+LSE merge). Optional CUDA two-kernel backend
for eager; FLASHINFER_DCP_DIRECT_BACKEND selects triton, cuda, or auto
(CUDA when not graph-capturing).

Existing decode_cp_a2a_alltoall is unchanged.

154-180: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Synchronize ranks between timing samples.

The measured region contains peer-dependent work. workspace.run waits on producer epoch signals, and the NCCL baselines execute collectives. Ranks enter the sample loop without a barrier, so rank skew is absorbed as spin-wait or collective wait time inside starter/ender. The reported medians then include drift instead of kernel cost.

Add a barrier and a device sync before each sample.

Add a numerical cross-check before timing.

The loop runs workspace.run and each baseline once, but it discards the results. A silent numerical divergence between DCPDirectReduceWorkspace and the reference merge would still produce a clean latency table. _merge already provides a reference implementation, so the check is cheap.

Compare the workspace output against _merge over the gathered head shards, and stop when the tolerance fails.

Do not suppress the capture probe silently.

Line 779 hides every exception from torch.cuda.is_current_stream_capturing(). capturing then stays False, and the auto backend selects CUDA during graph capture. That is the exact case the Triton fallback exists to cover. Narrow the suppressed type, and treat a failed probe as capturing = True so the safe path is chosen.

Consider one waiter instead of per-CTA polling.

The merge grid is (t, local_heads). Every program polls the same world_size signal words with system-scope atomics. Peer atomic traffic then grows with the token count. The unused _direct_consumer_merge_kernel records this concern in its own comment at line 441.

Consider a small dedicated wait kernel, or restrict polling to program_id == 0 plus a device-scope flag that the other CTAs read.

Preserve the build failure for the explicit cuda backend.

_load_cuda_module swallows every exception and returns None. functools.cache then caches that None for the process lifetime. When backend == "cuda", line 602 raises a message without the underlying nvcc or import error, so the real cause is lost.

Store the exception and chain it, or log it at debug level. Ruff also reports BLE001 for the two blind except Exception clauses.

Do not suppress every exception around the capture probe.

torch.cuda.is_current_stream_capturing returns a bool. A broad contextlib.suppress(Exception) hides a real CUDA error and silently forces capturing = False, which then selects the CUDA path during graph capture. Call the function directly, or catch only RuntimeError.

The publish arrival counter has no slot dimension. _dest_done is allocated with shape (world_size,) while received_output, received_lse, received_signal, and epoch all carry a num_slots axis. run therefore passes the same counter buffer for every slot, and concurrent per-slot launches on separate streams interleave the counts.

Vote on MNNVL capability before constructing the optional baseline.

If one rank raises from MnnvlMemory.supports_mnnvl() before DcpA2aBaseline.__init__ reaches dist.barrier(group), it enters _try_make's dist.all_gather_object while other ranks enter the constructor barrier. The collectives cannot rendezvous, so the baseline hangs instead of being skipped.

Bind loop values in the timing lambdas.

Ruff reports B023 for these lambdas. The helper invokes them synchronously today, so no current timing error is proven. Bind nccl, nccl_symm, po, and ps explicitly so deferred execution cannot capture later loop values and the lint check passes.

Ruff reported these B023 diagnostics in the supplied static-analysis results.

In `@flashinfer/trace/templates/comm.py`:
- Line 307: Update the local_heads declaration in the trace template so it is
bound to a replay-visible input or derived explicitly from total_heads and
world_size. Ensure DCPDirectReduceWorkspace.run() and fi_trace() provide enough
information for replay to resolve local_heads rather than leaving it only as an
output-shape variable.

Outside diff comments:
In `@benchmarks/bench_dcp_direct_reduce.py`:
- Around line 304-318: Update the optional baseline setup around DcpA2aBaseline
and _try_make to probe MnnvlMemory.supports_mnnvl() on every rank before
constructing the baseline, treating probe exceptions as False and using
all_ranks_support_mnnvl (or equivalent collective voting) to require unanimous
support. Skip construction when the vote fails so all ranks execute matching
collectives and avoid the barrier/all_gather_object hang.

In `@flashinfer/comm/dcp_direct_reduce.py`:
- Around line 657-660: Update DCPDirectReduce initialization and run so
_dest_done is allocated per slot with shape (num_slots, world_size), and pass
the corresponding _dest_done[slot] row for each launch. In
flashinfer/comm/dcp_direct_reduce.py lines 657-660, change the allocation and
run usage; in flashinfer/comm/dcp_direct_reduce_cuda.cu lines 95-102, retain
dest_done as the selected slot row so completion detection and reset affect only
that slot.

Drop unused leftover kernels, the optional CUDA backend, and the
nccl_symm bench arm. Keep dest-owned Triton reduce plus fi_a2a and
NCCL baselines.

This PR compares dest-owned reduce to existing FlashInfer
decode_cp_a2a_alltoall. NCCL vs A2A already lives in
benchmarks/bench_dcp_alltoall.py.
Bind local_heads to optional caller out in the trace template, register
the module for fi_trace discovery, and vote MNNVL support on every rank
before constructing the A2A bench baseline.
