📌 Description

This PR adds a cuTile backend to the unified fused MoE API.

  • Supports BF16 on SM89, SM90, SM120, and SM121.
  • Supports NVFP4 W4A4 on SM120 and SM121.
  • Supports SwiGLU (gated) and ReLU2 (ungated) activations.
  • Adds architecture- and shape-aware heuristics with staged GEMM-pair autotuning.
  • Adds unified MoE benchmark support to flashinfer_benchmark.py with CUTLASS-versus-cuTile comparisons.
  • Adds correctness tests and API documentation for the new cuTile MoE

Current implementation is a first step towards a cuTile MoE that can deliver a portable (across GPUs) and performance-competitive (vs. cutlass_fused_moe) MoE implementation.

As FlashInfer moves towards the adoption of our Unified MoE API, the cuTile could potentially provide maintainability, as well as easy debugging and development experience.

Some headroom expected with further kernel and config tuning. Expand the summary below for full performance summary and reproducer.

Performance: cuTile versus CUTLASS

All results use autotuned backends and CUDA graph timing with one complete MoE invocation per replay. Speedup is CUTLASS latency / cuTile latency, so values greater than 1.00x favor cuTile.

The benchmark shapes are:

Model Activation Hidden size Intermediate size Experts Top-k
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B SwiGLU 2048 512 256 8
NVIDIA Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B ReLU2 2688 1856 128 6

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 0e5a9

The new cuTile MoE backend can fail or produce invalid GPU execution for supported assignment counts and empty NVFP4 inputs, while malformed routing IDs or concurrent reuse of a runner may corrupt inference state or fail execution. Merge should be blocked until these correctness and isolation issues are fixed or explicitly accepted by the owners.

191-220: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Document the invariant shared by the two scan paths.

_permute_scan reimplements the padded-count reduction, the exclusive scan, the PAD_OFFSETS write, the NUM_POST_PAD write, and the per-chunk BASE computation that _permute_scan_combine and _permute_scan_bases perform. The _permute host function selects between them on num_slabs <= 2. Both paths must produce identical pad_off, num_post_pad, and base values, otherwise the grouped GEMM reads a routing layout that does not match the scatter. Nothing in the code states this coupling.

Add a comment at each kernel that names its counterpart and states the shared invariant. That keeps future edits to the padding formula from diverging silently.

Document the backend constraints in the public docstring.

CuTileBf16Runner._check_support rejects activations other than Swiglu and Relu2, rejects do_finalize=False, rejects enable_pdl=True, and supports only RoutingInputMode.PackedPrecomputed. The class docstring states only the expert-parallelism and shared-expert limits. Peer configurations such as CutlassBf16Config document routing mode, activation, and do_finalize. Add the same details so users can select the backend without reading the runner.

Use flashinfer.utils for the architecture capability read.

_cutile_device_is_supported calls torch.cuda.get_device_capability() directly. The repository convention is to skip architecture-gated GPU tests through flashinfer.utils helpers. Keep the is_cuda_tile_available() toolchain probe, and read the compute capability through flashinfer.utils.get_compute_capability.

As per coding guidelines for tests/**/*.py: "Use flashinfer.utils functions to skip tests on unsupported GPU architectures".

♻️ Proposed helper change
 def _cutile_device_is_supported() -> bool:
     if not torch.cuda.is_available():
         return False
-    major, minor = torch.cuda.get_device_capability()
+    major, minor = get_compute_capability(torch.device("cuda:0"))
     return CuTileBf16Config.supported(major * 10 + minor) and is_cuda_tile_available()

Add the import near the existing FlashInfer imports:

934-941: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Avoid the second architecture allowlist in _candidate_block_sizes.

prefill_threshold indexes a dict literal keyed by architecture. The keys duplicate _CUTILE_BF16_ARCHS. If a new architecture joins _CUTILE_BF16_ARCHS, _check_support accepts it and this line raises KeyError during tactic enumeration.

Use a lookup with a default so a new architecture degrades to a threshold instead of a crash.

♻️ Proposed default threshold

Single-source the architecture table used by prefill_threshold.

_candidate_block_sizes indexes {89: 64, 90: 128, 120: 512, 121: 512} directly. The key set must stay equal to _CUTILE_BF16_ARCHS. If a new architecture is added to _CUTILE_BF16_ARCHS and not to this dict, get_valid_tactics raises a bare KeyError during autotuning. Promote the table to a class-level constant and use an explicit default.

Reuse the base-class expert-parallelism check instead of duplicating it.

Resolves two conflicts introduced by flashinfer-ai#4793 ("Unify MoE CuTe DSL dispatch to be
dtype agnostic") and flashinfer-ai#4646.

flashinfer/fused_moe/runners.py
  flashinfer-ai#4793 replaced CuteDslNvfp4Runner with the dtype-agnostic CuteDslRunner
  (NVFP4 + MXFP4/W4A8 + W4A16) and added three W4A8 checks to _check_support().
  Kept both sides: upstream's checks stay, and _assert_rubin_cute_dsl_available()
  is called after them.

  Because the probe now lives on a runner serving three quant variants rather
  than on the NVFP4-only class, it is explicitly scoped to NVFP4 to preserve its
  original blast radius. MXFP4/W4A8 is already declined on SM107 by upstream's
  new check, and W4A16 gates itself through require_cute_dsl_arch(); widening
  the rubin_helpers probe to those paths would be a behaviour change this branch
  never intended.

tests/moe/test_cute_dsl_fused_moe.py
  flashinfer-ai#4793 renamed cute_dsl_fused_moe_nvfp4 -> cute_dsl_fused_moe at this call
  site. Kept our SM107 SiTU skip and took upstream's new name. The three
  remaining cute_dsl_fused_moe_nvfp4 references are upstream's own deprecation
  test and are unchanged.

No functional change to either side's intent.

## 📌 Description

This PR adds a cuTile backend to the unified fused MoE API.

- Supports BF16 on SM89, SM90, SM120, and SM121.
- Supports NVFP4 W4A4 on SM120 and SM121.
- Supports SwiGLU (gated) and ReLU2 (ungated) activations.
- Adds architecture- and shape-aware heuristics with staged GEMM-pair
autotuning.
- Adds unified MoE benchmark support to `flashinfer_benchmark.py` with
CUTLASS-versus-cuTile comparisons.
- Adds correctness tests and API documentation for the new cuTile MoE

Current implementation is a first step towards a cuTile MoE that can
deliver a portable (across GPUs) and performance-competitive (vs.
`cutlass_fused_moe`) MoE implementation.

As FlashInfer moves towards the adoption of our Unified MoE API, the
cuTile could potentially provide maintainability, as well as easy
debugging and development experience.

Some headroom expected with further kernel and config tuning. Expand the
summary below for full performance summary and reproducer.

<details>
<summary><strong>Performance: cuTile versus CUTLASS</strong></summary>

All results use autotuned backends and CUDA graph timing with one
complete MoE invocation per replay. Speedup is `CUTLASS latency / cuTile
latency`, so values greater than `1.00x` favor cuTile.

The benchmark shapes are:

| Model | Activation | Hidden size | Intermediate size | Experts | Top-k
|
|---|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| Qwen3.6-35B-A3B | SwiGLU | 2048 | 512 | 256 | 8 |
| NVIDIA Nemotron-3.5-Lightning-30B-A3B | ReLU2 | 2688 | 1856 | 128 | 6

…on main) (#4903)

## 📌 Description


`tests/moe/test_unified_moe_activation_matrix.py::test_documented_activation_matrix_matches_runner_registry`
is failing on `main`, which blocks CI for **every open PR**:

```
AssertionError: docs/design_docs/flashinfer_moe_api.md is stale;
run: python scripts/generate_moe_activation_matrix.py --write
```

This is a **semantic merge conflict**, not a defect in any single PR.
#4805 added the generator, its check test, and a matrix block rendered
from `_BACKEND_RUNNERS` as it stood on that PR's base. Two changes
landed on `main` in between, and neither could have known to re-render
the block:

| Change | Effect on the matrix |
|---|---|
| #4793 (`f7d4b167`) | renamed `CuteDslRunner.backend_key`
`cute_dsl_nvfp4` → `cute_dsl` and added `QuantVariant.MXFP4` to its
supported variants |
| #4646 (`0cbace05`) | registered `CuTileBf16Runner` /
`CuTileNvfp4Runner` in `_BACKEND_RUNNERS` |

Each PR was green on its own base; the merged tree is what is stale.
Because the check compares the committed block against the live
registry, it has been red for everyone since #4805 merged.

## 🔍 Change

Only the generated block changes — this commit is the mechanical output
of the documented regeneration command:

```
python scripts/generate_moe_activation_matrix.py --write
```

- adds `cutile_bf16` (`BF16`) and `cutile_nvfp4` (`NVFP4`), both
`SwiGLU`, `ReLU2`
- replaces the two `cute_dsl_nvfp4` rows with three `cute_dsl` rows
(`MXFP4`, `NVFP4`, `W4A16`)

No source, test, or prose changes.

## 🧪 Testing

The authoritative check is
`test_documented_activation_matrix_matches_runner_registry`, which runs
in this PR's own CI.

## 🔗 Related

Surfaced while triaging CI on #4387, whose H100 job ran the full suite
with 221,273 passing and this as the sole failure.
