📌 Description

Port of #4786 (plus the #4792 Sm100f/sm107 allowance) onto main. After #4648 the trtllm-gen GEMM pack is a single multi-arch artifact, so getValidTactics() on the low-latency runner returned SM107 cubins on Blackwell. Autotune then handed those indices to cuModuleLoadData.

trtllm_low_latency_gemm_runner.cu was the one trtllm-gen runner still missing the isArchCompatible / checkPassingConfigIndex filter that #4280 added to trtllm_gemm_runner.cu and trtllm_batched_gemm_runner.cu.

Do not cherry-pick #4786 verbatim: that filter treated Sm100f as sm100/sm103 only, and select_kernel() still names _sm100f heuristics, which #4792 showed fails every mm_fp8 case on Rubin. This PR uses the combined release-v0.6.18 rule (Sm100f on 100/103/107).

On B200 (SM100) unpatched getValidTactics(4, 2560, 8192) returned 16 indices (0,2,3,4,5,7,10,11 + 93,95,96,97,101,102,104,109). Forced tactic 93 failed inside gemm.run. After the filter: 8 sm100f tactics; tactic 93 raises Tactic 93 is not in this runner's compatible config set.

✅ Pre-commit Checks

  • I have installed pre-commit.
  • 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.).

Local B200 (SM100, CUDA 13.0, torch 2.13.0+cu130), worktree at upstream/main + this commit:

  • pytest tests/gemm/test_mm_fp8.py tests/utils/test_logging_replay.py::test_mm_fp8_replay → 31 passed
  • Tactic dump and forced-sm107a FFI path as above

Not verified here: SM103 (B300) or SM107 (Rubin). Those were covered on release-v0.6.18 by #4786 / #4792.

Reviewer Notes

Sibling runners on main still map Sm100f to 100 || 103 only. They were left alone: they already have an arch filter, their heuristics have dedicated _sm107a names, and #4792 called that follow-up out of scope for the low-latency crash.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved low-latency matrix multiplication compatibility across supported GPU architectures.
    • Prevented execution with unsupported kernel configurations, reducing the risk of invalid tactics and runtime failures.

)

After flashinfer-ai#4648 the GEMM pack lists SM107 configs in the same manifest as SM100, so low-latency autotune loaded those cubins on B200. Filter tactics by device arch like trtllm_gemm, and keep Sm100f runnable on sm107 for the named heuristic kernels.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The low-latency GEMM runner now filters configurations by device SM architecture and rejects tactics that are not compatible with the filtered configuration set before kernel execution.

Changes

GEMM architecture validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Architecture-compatible configuration filtering
csrc/trtllm_low_latency_gemm_runner.cu
The constructor reads the device SM version and retains only configurations accepted by isArchCompatible.
Tactic compatibility guard
csrc/trtllm_low_latency_gemm_runner.cu
checkPassingConfigIndex verifies the requested tactic with std::find. run calls the guard before kernel execution.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c5519

The change prevents unsupported GPU kernels from reaching execution, but multi-GPU callers may still have tactics checked against the wrong device, potentially causing failures or incorrect tactic selection. Workspace sizing can also succeed for a tactic that execution later rejects, so the PR should not merge until device selection is made consistent and the bounded API mismatch is addressed or explicitly accepted.

Filter against the execution device, not the current CUDA device.

getSMVersion() reads cudaGetDevice(), but trtllm_low_latency_gemm() uses a.device().device_id for the stream and GEMM call. The function has no device guard before constructing TrtllmLowLatencyGemmRunner. Different device architectures can therefore select an incompatible cubin or reject a valid tactic. Query a.device().device_id, or add a device guard before runner construction. Add a two-device regression test.

## 📌 Description

Port of flashinfer-ai#4786 (plus the flashinfer-ai#4792 `Sm100f`/sm107 allowance) onto `main`.
After flashinfer-ai#4648 the trtllm-gen GEMM pack is a single multi-arch artifact, so
`getValidTactics()` on the low-latency runner returned SM107 cubins on
Blackwell. Autotune then handed those indices to `cuModuleLoadData`.

`trtllm_low_latency_gemm_runner.cu` was the one trtllm-gen runner still
missing the `isArchCompatible` / `checkPassingConfigIndex` filter that
flashinfer-ai#4280 added to `trtllm_gemm_runner.cu` and
`trtllm_batched_gemm_runner.cu`.

Do not cherry-pick flashinfer-ai#4786 verbatim: that filter treated `Sm100f` as
sm100/sm103 only, and `select_kernel()` still names `_sm100f`
heuristics, which flashinfer-ai#4792 showed fails every `mm_fp8` case on Rubin. This
PR uses the combined `release-v0.6.18` rule (`Sm100f` on 100/103/107).

On B200 (SM100) unpatched `getValidTactics(4, 2560, 8192)` returned 16
indices (`0,2,3,4,5,7,10,11` + `93,95,96,97,101,102,104,109`). Forced
tactic `93` failed inside `gemm.run`. After the filter: 8 sm100f
tactics; tactic `93` raises `Tactic 93 is not in this runner's
compatible config set`.
