feat(kda): add SM120a CuTe DSL prefill backend

[JimpleMa]

📌 Description

Add a CuTe DSL backend for ordinary multi-token recurrent KDA prefill on
SM120, in flashinfer/kda_kernels/sm120_prefill/.

• Route eligible fixed and packed ordinary prefill through it from
  recurrent_kda. No new public API name and no argument names the
  architecture: shape, dtype, device, and backend contract decide. Under
  backend="auto", calls outside the supported subset continue through the
  existing dispatcher.
• Reuse the existing backend="cute-dsl" selection for SM120. auto and
  cute-dsl may select this architecture-specific implementation, while an
  explicit backend="cake" never probes or runs it and remains a strict Cake
  request.
• Ship two kernels behind one contract. decomp runs prepare and recurrence
  as two launches sharing one scratch arena; fused runs one CTA per
  (sequence, head). Neither is faster everywhere, so the choice is made per
  call from a measured table.
• Key that table on SM count, not device name, because the latter is not a
  stable unique selector. Thresholds are 110 SM: T <= 32 or CTA >= 128;
  156 and 188 SM: T <= 32 or CTA >= 144.
  describe_variant_policy reports whether a device has its own measured row.
• Stay disjoint from the other prefill backends by compute capability: this
  implementation is CC 12.0, while Cake and the BT=16 CuTe DSL prefill backend
  are CC 10.0 and 10.3.
• Support CUDA graph capture through a caller-owned workspace. Compilation,
  descriptor construction, metadata tables, and allocation happen during
  eager warmup; cold capture is refused.
• Bound the flat output at T_total * H * 128 <= 2**31 - 1 on the host. This
  protects both the tail store's INT32 index and the DSL memref extent.

Performance

Measured against MoonshotAI/FlashKDA through the public recurrent_kda API on
a 110-SM SM120 device, with --refcheck enabled. Timing uses CUDA events
because CUPTI was unavailable. All runs use H=12, BF16, fixed layout, and no
initial state. auto is the variant selected by the measured policy.

Case	auto	FlashInfer	FlashKDA	Speedup

B6 T8192	fused	0.784	2.788	3.55x
B8 T8192	fused	0.881	3.164	3.59x

Times are milliseconds. FlashInfer wins 6 of 6; the geometric mean is
3.239x, and the worst case is 2.29x. At B8 T8192, pinned decomp is 2.162
ms and pinned fused is 0.881 ms, which demonstrates why per-shape selection
is needed.

The 156-SM and 188-SM SM120 devices were last measured at 8401e91c on
other hosts: geometric means of
2.977x and 3.001x over the same six cases. Those results are from an older
commit on different machines and are not directly comparable to the table
above.

The auto-policy thresholds come from independent FlashInfer variant sweeps:
74 shapes on the 110-SM part and 147 shapes each on the 156-SM and 188-SM
parts. A separate 127-shape comparison against FlashKDA found 127/127 shapes
faster, with geometric-mean speedups of 2.258x, 2.164x, and 2.193x on the
110-SM, 156-SM, and 188-SM parts respectively. The 127-shape comparison is not
the source of the threshold-fit row counts.

The changes after these benchmark runs are host-side dispatch, compile-device
scoping, zero-token state handling, documentation, comments, and tests. The
timed device kernels and hot launch path are unchanged.

Accuracy

On all three parts, 127/127 shapes pass a 5e-2 gate against an FP64 reference.
The largest disagreement is 1.03e-2 against the reference and 1.56e-2 against
FlashKDA. 247 cross-implementation comparisons are bitwise identical.

🚀 Pull Request Checklist

✅ Pre-commit Checks

• I have installed pre-commit by running pip install pre-commit (or
  used my preferred method).
• I have installed the hooks with pre-commit install.
• I have run the hooks manually with pre-commit run --all-files and
  fixed any reported issues.

🧪 Tests

• Tests have been added or updated as needed.

• All tests are passing (unittest, etc.), run on a 110-SM SM120 device at
  this head rather than at an earlier one.

• tests/kda/test_recurrent_kda_prefill_sm120.py: 126 passed, 3 skipped.
  The file covers eligibility (host-only where it can be), the variant table,
  correctness against a contract-shaped reference, the public state and output
  contract, graph capture and replay, and the runtime's caches.

• tests/kda/ whole directory: 338 passed, 229 skipped; the skips are the
  CC 10.0/10.3 architecture gates.

• Final changed-file checks pass: git diff --check, compileall, and the
  complete pre-commit run --all-files hook set, including mypy and Ruff.

• The INT32 bound was checked on hardware: at H=1024, 16383 tokens runs and
  16384 is refused.

Reviewer Notes

Review should focus on eligibility and dispatch, the variant table, workspace
and graph semantics, runtime caches, and these integration fixes:

• Explicit backend="cake" skips the SM120 CuTe DSL path; only auto and
  cute-dsl may select it.
• Launch streams, plan keys, cold compilation, persistent-cache target
  detection, and in-process compiled-callable caches are scoped to the input
  tensor's CUDA device.
• The variant policy reads the called device's SM count rather than device 0.
• A bound workspace rejects an explicit variant that differs from its warmed
  variant instead of silently ignoring the request.
• The decomp and fused zero-token paths now preserve an FP32 initial state with
  identical semantics, including exact aliasing.
• Capture without an explicit workspace is refused at the public adapter.
• SM120PrefillResources.bind is called so its captured-signature constraints
  are enforced.
• Backend selection checks TMA's 16-byte base-address alignment.
• The A_log memo handles tensors without a readable version counter.
• The fused variant validates its grid against maxGridSize[1].
• Descriptor staging buffers are not refilled while an asynchronous upload may
  still be reading them.
• The benchmark clones initial_state per backend because KDA updates it in
  place.
• The per-call memos -- the facade's and both variants' -- held strong
  references to the caller's tensors, so one whole activation set stayed off
  the caching allocator until the next call replaced it. They hold weak
  references now, as the plan LRU behind them already did.
• The process-global caches are serialized. BoundedDeviceCache, the flat-view
  cache and the resolved-call memo mutate module state on a path that runs
  without the workspace lock whenever the caller passes none, and the pairs are
  not atomic even though the individual dict operations are: a hit and its
  move_to_end, an insert racing the eviction loop. The single-load fast paths
  stay outside the locks on purpose, and say so.
• A workspace's SM120 resources were created without a lock, so two first calls
  on one workspace could each build their own. The loser ran against an orphan:
  its lock serialized nothing, its scratch doubled the device memory, and its
  capture flag was set where nobody would read it.
• backend="cute-dsl" on a CC 12.0 device was answered by the CC 10.0/10.3
  block, which can only name the contract when the reason is architecture-
  specific and already known. The SM120 refusal now carries its reason to that
  raise. It is recorded rather than raised where it is found, so a decode --
  which reaches the same dispatcher -- still falls through untouched.
• _SM120_TMA_BASE_ALIGN and runtime.GLOBAL_BASE_ALIGN are one number in two
  modules, and now a test says so.
• The spent-workspace check and the scratch it guards now share one hold of
  resources.lock. Split across the lock they raced each other: a thread that
  read the flag as False could replace state_scratch after another thread's
  capture had already recorded the old buffer's address, and two threads
  wanting different state shapes could each install their own, leaving the
  loser with a final_state the workspace no longer owns. The backend
  re-checks the flag, which orders the launches, but it cannot undo a
  replacement that already happened.

With that, every mutable state in the package has an owner: resources.lock
for the workspace's fields, _sm120_state_lock for creating them, _BUILD_LOCK
for the plan and compile caches, a per-instance lock for each
BoundedDeviceCache, and module locks for the flat views, the pinned staging
and the resolved-call memo. The single-load fast paths stay outside their locks
on purpose and say why.

A warm call's memo addresses the caller's buffers, so those buffers stay
allocated while the entry lives -- which is what makes reusing the entry safe,
since an allocator that had recycled the address would otherwise hand the
kernel someone else's memory. It scales with the number of distinct buffer sets
a process rotates through rather than with the number of calls: at
[1, 1024, 8, 128] on the 110-SM part one set holds about 14.5 MiB and eight
rotating sets about 73 MiB.

The entry ceilings are documented rather than lowered, because measurement says
lowering them buys nothing. Below a ceiling the retention is identical whatever
the ceiling is; above it every call rebuilds its plan, about 7.3 ms against a
100 microsecond hit. Three caches can each hold a buffer alive and only bind
together, so lowering one alone changes nothing at all. The constants now carry
that table, and the public page says what to do instead.

Under inference_mode, a tensor may have no readable version counter, so
refilling an offsets buffer in place cannot reliably invalidate derived host
metadata. Fixed offset values for a warmed/captured workspace are therefore a
documented caller contract.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90+ minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c90cb

The PR adds an SM120 prefill backend and shared workspace/capture behavior. Concurrent reuse of one workspace can replace scratch buffers while another launch or captured graph still uses them, causing incorrect results or runtime failures; additional cache and dispatch fragility remains. Merge should wait for these issues to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

Reject a non-contiguous tensor in flat_view.

tensor.reshape(-1) returns a view only when the tensor is contiguous. For a non-contiguous tensor it copies. The cache then stores a view of that temporary copy while keying the entry on the original tensor's data_ptr(). Later launches would read stale data, and the failure would appear as wrong numbers far from this call.

validate_inputs checks contiguity for the public ABI today, so this is currently unreachable. The guard makes the invariant local to the helper that depends on it.

The unlocked hit path can do more than cost a rebuild.

The comment at Lines 699-706 states that the worst outcome of a race on the hit path is one extra rebuild. OrderedDict.move_to_end relinks nodes in a doubly linked list. If another thread runs popitem(last=False) at the same time, the result can be a KeyError or a corrupted link order, not only a lost entry. dict.get is atomic; move_to_end paired with a concurrent popitem is not.

Two low-cost options keep the measured hit-path cost: skip move_to_end on hits and accept insertion-order eviction, or take _FLAT_VIEWS_LOCK around the move_to_end only.

This repeats a locking concern from an earlier review of these cache paths.

393-429: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The memo cannot hit when the caller passes no output.

Line 393 allocates a new out when output is None. The memo compares tensors by object identity: _resolved_call requires ref() is tensor. A fresh torch.empty_like(v) is always a new object, so the fast path at Lines 411-429 always misses for that caller. The +0.11 ms of host time described at Lines 503-507 is then paid on every such call.

The behavior is safe. If the memo is meant to serve callers that do not supply output, state the limitation in the comment block at Lines 498-522 so a later reader does not treat the miss as a defect.

Gate the SM120 probe on the plain-prefill check first.

backend="auto" is the default, so this block runs on every recurrent_kda call, including single-token decode. Each call allocates a 24-entry dict and then calls _sm120_kda_prefill_rejection_reason, which returns at its first check because _is_plain_multi_token_prefill is False. Decode is latency-sensitive and this host work is pure overhead there.

_is_plain_multi_token_prefill is already computed at Line 300. Hoist it above this block and use it as the entry condition.

Confirm the TVM-FFI dispatch check against the pinned DSL.

assert_tvm_ffi_dispatched matches on type(compiled).__module__.endswith("tvm_ffi_provider"). That is an internal module path of nvidia-cutlass-dsl. If the DSL moves or renames the provider module, this raises for a correctly compiled kernel and the backend stops working. Consider matching on the class name TVMFFIJitCompiledFunctionWithKwargs as an additional accepted signal, or on the presence of the TVM-FFI call attribute.

check_flat_output_range is never called from validate_inputs.

validate_inputs computes total_tokens and heads and is the one place both variants pass through. The INT32 output-size bound is not applied here. Its own docstring at Lines 1074-1077 says the shape is refused "here where the shape is still in hand". If no variant calls it, an oversized shape reaches build_memref_desc and raises the opaque OverflowError that the docstring describes, or the tail store wraps its INT32 index and writes out of range.

Confirm that both variants call it. If they do not, call it from validate_inputs.

The _RESOLVED_LAST fast path still compares no address. The check is object identity plus the version counter. Under torch.inference_mode() tensor_version returns NO_VERSION for every tensor, so the version term always matches. A caller that rebinds storage on the same object, for example q.data = other, keeps the object identity and changes the address. The memoized plan then replays against the previous address. Record each tensor's data_ptr() in _remember_call and compare it here.

Two mutation paths run outside the cache lock.

stats calls self._stats.setdefault(...), and it is public. max_grid_dims writes _GRID_LIMITS with no lock. Neither can corrupt data: setdefault is atomic under the GIL, and the grid limits are idempotent per device. A concurrent caller can only lose a redundant driver query. Recording the intent in the docstrings prevents a later reader from adding a lock that the hot path does not need.

Clear the offsets cache in this test, as the neighbouring tests do.

validate_packed_offsets(good, 10) inserts a record keyed on good's address into the process-wide _PACKED_OFFSETS cache, and this test never clears it. The two following tests wrap their use in try/finally with runtime.clear_offsets_caches(). Without the same cleanup, this test leaves state that a later test can hit, and the ordering dependence is invisible when it breaks.

The two lower_bound ranges disagree at the upper end.

This gate accepts [-5.0, 0.0). The backend's LOWER_BOUND_RANGE in flashinfer/kda_kernels/sm120_prefill/runtime.py Line 94 accepts [-5.0, 0.0], inclusive of 0.0. A call with lower_bound=0.0 therefore never reaches this backend and falls through to the SM100-family path, which is safe but is a silent divergence between the two constants. The comment above _SM120_KDA_LOWER_BOUND_MIN records only the lower cliff. State the exclusion of 0.0 there, or align the two ranges.

Make the import-isolation check independent of test order.

The assertion reads process-global sys.modules. Any test that runs a kernel first loads flashinfer.kda_kernels.sm120_prefill.decomp or fused, so this test then fails even though the facade itself stays lazy. The reverse is also possible: with -k selection the check can pass without proving anything. Import the facade in a subprocess to get a deterministic result.

tensor_version catches only RuntimeError.

The docstring states the guard exists for inference tensors. torch.Tensor._version is a private attribute. If a future torch release removes it, or a tensor-like subclass does not define it, this raises AttributeError and the whole plan-cache path fails. Catch AttributeError as well so the fallback stays fail-safe.

prefill_workspace._captured is written under a different lock than the Cake path uses.

_run_flash_kda_prefill reads and writes workspace._captured under workspace._lock (Lines 1342-1529). This path writes the same flag under resources.lock. The two locks do not exclude each other.

Today the two backends target disjoint compute capabilities, so one workspace cannot reach both paths. Record that invariant here, or write _captured under prefill_workspace._lock, so a later backend addition does not silently create a race on a capture flag.
