feat(moe): add CuTe DSL NVFP4 W4A16 MegaMoE

[zianglih]

📌 Description

@HumansAnd

Add Sm100_Bf16_Nvfp4_Bf16_Cutedsl_MegaMoeConfig through the existing MegaConfig / MoEEpLayer API. One persistent kernel performs expert-parallel dispatch, FC1/SwiGLU, FC2 and token return with BF16 activations. Packed NVFP4 weights and E4M3 scales are TMA-loaded and decoded into TMEM for BF16 MMA; the existing external reducer applies FP32 routing scores without TMA reduction.

• Ownership/reuse: flashinfer/moe_ep/cute_dsl/megamoe/nvfp4_w4a16/ owns the frontend, autotuner, BF16 workspace, pipeline, epilogues and static/atomic scheduling. Reuse the split W4A16 decoder and universal transport/flag/ring/coordinate primitives. TokenInPullTokenBackPush handles BF16 payloads with swap-AB layout and four dispatch warps. Shared W4A4 compute/weight preparation, its original autotuner and vendored implementation remain unchanged.
• Pipeline: five warpgroups, including two decode groups, and two accumulator stages. The 61,440-register CTA pool assigns control/dispatch/epilogue/decode groups 80/64/144/96 registers per thread. Support M256/N64 or N128 with C2, and M128/N64 with C1 or C2, all K256; M selects one/two-CTA MMA. TMEM holds three decoded stages at N64 and two at N128. Shared-memory fitting tries three activation stages with raw depths 5→2, then two activation stages with the same search. H7168/I2048 selects B3/raw5 at N64 and B3/raw4 at N128. Decoded BF16 weights never materialize in global/shared memory; shapes must fit at least two raw stages.
• Scheduling/bounds: full cluster-aligned feature dimensions omit redundant epilogue checks; partial features and live token counts retain bounds. Positive compile-time feature-block counts use CuTe fast divmod for nonnegative work IDs; dynamic divisors retain ordinary division. Dynamic routed N uses align16(valid tokens) and the existing non-leader CTA activation-load shift in both FC phases. No extra kernel argument or public tuning knob is added.
• Ordering/ownership: release accumulator and packed-weight slots after their final reads/stores with the required fences; publish decoded readiness and FC1 completion after writes complete. FC1 and dispatch-return FC2 completion cross the async.global proxy after the existing epilogue rendezvous, before release-counter publication, ordering BF16 stores before consuming TMA reads. FC2's fence is compiled only for dispatch return. Six TMEM completion waits order scratch reads/overwrites in the three transpose-store methods; FC2 selects each epilogue warp's own 32-row TMEM region. One elected lane publishes each eight-word scheduler record/readiness hint; all 32 lanes still acquire, fence, commit and advance. Existing barriers/stage ownership remain; zero/partial tiles release once and peer metadata retains its protection wait. Direct return reuses a peer pointer/validity predicate for adjacent 16-BF16 stores using an Int64 stride-preserving offset, retaining tail/token guards.
• Autotune: four ordered dictionaries: N128 then N64, each with epilogue then reused-dispatch return, M256/C2/K256, flag 4 and scheduler depth 2. Manual F8, M128 and scheduler depth 3 remain supported; default scheduler depth is 3. knobs="auto" tunes collectively during eager warmup; None selects cached/default knobs; explicit dictionaries, including {}, bypass selection. The independent W4A16 default/cache-miss profile is M256/N128/K256, flag 4, epilogue return. Cache keys use compile-time capacity, not live tokens. Cached/explicit partial tiles share CTA-mode derivation. Hot graph candidate timing covers the staged wrapper and reducer, excluding input staging/routing preparation, and ranks MAX of rank medians. All ranks agree on capture success before replay; graphs synchronize/reset before workspace replacement. Cache interfaces are unchanged.
• Staging: a private CuTe launch copies BF16 activations/FP32 scores, repacks signed int32/int64 IDs and fills tail IDs with −1. The existing Torch path handles empty, strided or misaligned views, capture-time specialization misses and FLASHINFER_MEGA_FUSED_STAGE=0; activation/score tails stay unchanged. Eager specialization keys device/H/top-k/ID dtype; tokens/capacity remain dynamic. Call collective layer.warmup() per workspace before graph capture. Unwarmed fused frontends fail before staging, including empty input; lazy compile/config/free reject capture.
• Benchmark/tests: extend existing contract, reference, routing, staging and graph suites with explicit precision products and unchanged tolerances. Add optional matched-fixture Mega benchmarking, strict CUPTI timing and coordinated multi-rank NCU replay. Existing benchmark defaults stay unchanged (--log-timing-samples off, --iters=100). Untimed shared-weight quantization uses enable_pdl=False so fresh global scales follow normal stream ordering; timed execution and the shared quantization kernel are unchanged.

Tensor and numerical contract

Let E/H/I/T/K denote local experts, hidden size, intermediate size, local tokens and top-k.

• Canonical weights: gate-then-up FC1 [E, 2I,H/2], FC2 [E,H,I/2], packed E2M1 uint8 or float4_e2m1fn_x2; linear E4M3 scales [E, 2I,H/16] / [E,H,I/16]. Canonical BF16/FP32 weights may instead be quantized once before per-expert padding. Optional trailing w13_global_scale / w2_global_scale weight-pack arguments accept positional/keyword use, default to None (one for W4A16), and must be FP32 [E] on the weight device. Layer construction rejects separate globals for backends that do not consume them; W4A16 is the sole opt-in.
• Prepared weights: (weight, scale, alpha) per FC. For logical [E,N,D], packed FP4-x2 weights are [E,D/2,N] with packed-K stride 1 and contiguous backing after transposing axes 1/2. Scales are contiguous E4M3 [E,P], P=round_up(N, 128)*round_up(D/16, 4), with padding per expert. Gate16/up16 ordering, K-major packed-transpose views and native scale planes match W4A4's first two tensors in shape/dtype/strides/bytes. Equivalent uint8 views are accepted without copying; calling .contiguous() on [E,D/2,N] creates an unsupported layout. Keep alpha separately as contiguous FP32 [E]; contiguous expert-shard views need only scalar alignment. W4A4 pairs plus alphas can form W4A16 triples. Direct preparation uses the W4A16 helper; never fold alpha into block scales/decoded weights.
• Compatibility: canonical representations are unchanged; previously prepared W4A16 gate32/flattened-scale buffers must be prepared again. This unifies the two Mega backends' representation, without claiming byte compatibility with split's different gate/up row order.
• Inputs/output: BF16 [T,H] activations, signed int32/int64 [T,K] IDs, FP32 [T,K] routed scores and BF16 [T,H] output. Existing MegaConfig.quantize_input=True selects the BF16-input path without activation quantization. Reject activation fields scales, fc1_alpha, fc2_alpha and fc1_norm_const; weight globals belong in the weight pack.
• Compute order: decode E2M1×E4M3 to BF16, accumulate GEMMs in FP32 and then apply expert global alpha. FC1 applies clamp and approximate SiLU before its BF16 handoff; FC2 applies alpha before BF16 output. Clamp caps gate above the limit and clips up symmetrically. Weight BF16 per-route FC2 terms with FP32 scores, then convert the fixed-order global sum once to BF16. Activations/intermediates/transport remain BF16. Split additionally rounds each rank's weighted partial to BF16 before rank combine, so final bitwise equality between backends is not a contract; timing omits optional --refcheck, and independent oracle tests retain their tolerances.
• Supported/scope: SM100/SM103, SwiGLU, EP, H % 32 == 0, I % 64 == 0, top_k <= min(32,total_experts) and expert count divisible by EP. B300/SM103 is tested; SM100 has not been run. Explicit M128/N128 is source-accepted but outside GPU-gated autotune geometries. Standalone token return, in-kernel FC2 routing reduction, FC1 routing, other activations and SGLang integration are outside this PR. Autotune must finish collectively before capture; graph errors stop the sweep. General recovery from rank-local allocation/compile failure is not established.

• 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.).

Current native source: a48e5706c2a7775b0b698aa8eccb4e124b02118c, CUDA 13.2/B300, unchanged test bodies/assertions/tolerances/default compiler settings.

Existing test scope	EP	Raw pytest result
Kernel/Torch oracle and FP32 expert scales/routing	1	8 passed, 6 deselected, 171 warnings in 141.09s
Graph capture/replay and multiple-size graph/eager interleave	1	3 passed, 5 deselected, 239 warnings in 45.86s
Uneven sources, empty refill, geometry/pipeline tails and multirank graph replay	2	17 passed, 7 deselected, 550 warnings per rank in 128.33s / 128.24s

All 28 logical cases / 45 rank executions passed, with no selected skips/failures. Coverage includes both returns, static/atomic scheduling, N64/N128 wrapping, partial dimensions, changing/empty/refill routes and eager/graph transitions. Clean exits and idle GPUs were verified; durations include compilation/setup. The optional EP8 native graph selection and a native all-tactic O2/O3 numerical matrix were not run.

Outstanding scope: native sanitizer qualification is pending. GitHub pre-commit, documentation and review checks pass at current head; GPU CI has not run because authorization is pending. Historical CUDA 13.0 results below do not qualify the latest ordering/address/publication fixes. A historical 7f1a0931 O2-autotuned 8192-token output discrepancy remains unexplained; these changes are not claimed to establish its cause or resolution.

Final performance

CUDA 13.2: current Mega at a48e5706; preceding paired Split/Mega at 1e3f25c7. Only scheduler publication changed between them; Split is unchanged and its complete prior column is reused. These are separate complete sweeps, with no row replacement/minima selection.

EP8, H7168/I2048/E256/top-k8, global tokens 1–8192 (small rows include empty ranks), BF16 activations/output, NVFP4 weights and non-fused finalize. Explicit production-default O3 preserves --ptxas-options='-maxrregcount=96'; all four tactics are considered per row with fresh knob/core caches and reused support-JIT cache. Three warmups plus 100 cold-L2 CUDA-graph CUPTI samples: median of per-iteration rank-MAX earliest-to-latest GPU spans. Includes routing/staging/communication/GEMMs/combine; preparation, compilation, tuning, capture and L2 flush are excluded. CUPTI wall_seconds is utility host time, not kernel latency.

For 8–8192 tokens, Split/current Mega geometric-mean speedup is 1.135965×; previous/current Mega is 1.009157×. Individual changes are mixed; one later sweep does not establish statistical significance. All 14 rows remain visible; 1/2/4 are excluded only from these aggregates.

Current completeness: 14 rows/1,400 primary samples; 112 rank-token canonical weights, inputs, routes and output hashes match the paired baseline and pinned native controls. All 112 outputs are finite/bitwise repeatable; 336 collective gates passed. Each row evaluates the same four-tactic catalog, with finite positive candidate scores and collective winner agreement. The baseline contains 28 rows/2,800 samples and 224 finite/repeat checks. Eager output checks are outside timing; graph/oracle coverage is reported above. Raw samples are retained.

Four correctness fixes, before/after: On a separate eight-B300 node (hu-pdx-69), compare 7f1a0931 with a48e5706 using four complete Mega-only AUTO/O3 sweeps in A1(before), B1(after), B2(after), A2(before) order. Image nvcr.io/nvidia/pytorch:26.05-py3, EP8/H7168/I2048/E256/top-k8, and the CUDA13.2 stack/timing method below:3 warmups,100 cold-L2 CUDA-graph CUPTI samples per row, median per-sample rank-MAX. Each sweep has fresh caches. Both arms use the identical a48e5706 benchmark with untimed weight PDL disabled; the kernel difference is the four ordering/address/publication fixes.

Combined ratio is sqrt(A1*A2/(B1*B2));8–8192 geometric mean 1.001016×. All56 timing rows/5,600 samples and448 rank-token fixture/output checks passed, with finite identical BF16 outputs and repeat checks. Same N64/epilogue-return tactic wins all four arms at32/128/512 tokens, which are 1.12%/3.54%/4.78% slower after in both orders;4 tokens is5.05% slower and remains outside the aggregate. At256/8192, pair ratios change sign by run order. This establishes individual slowdown candidates despite a neutral aggregate; two sweeps per arm do not establish statistical significance. All rows except1 select identical tactics across arms;2048–8192 use N128/dispatch return.

Reproduce with the CUDA13.2 setup/command below, select only --variants w4a16_megamoe, and use the exact current benchmark against each source via PYTHONPATH; repeat in A/B/B/A order with separate processes and empty per-sweep caches. The untimed validation wrapper pins source, compiler O3/maxregs96, fixtures, routes and outputs. This same-node Mega comparison is separate from the Split/Mega table above.

Complete raw evidence:98 files,32 full output tensors; archive SHA256 24d07ae9cf809032d6b428a0f1d022ea5194eb5ab8670e936b7d1ec40d410304. Independent raw-sample arithmetic and source/process/GPU closure checks passed.

Historical CUDA 13.0: 7f1a093119f12b1f5b79d50bf6d0c951069224e5, image 25.11-py3, B300, DSL 4.7.1 with cu12 native compiler 12.9. Each row ran Split then Mega against matching weights/inputs/routes; 28 rows/2,800 samples and 112 collective Mega selections completed. This predates the latest fixes and uses the fallback decoder; it is not cross-stack parity evidence.

Historical 8–8192 geometric-mean speedup: 1.1245×, 11/11 rows faster; all 14 rows retained. Both tables use K256, C2, group_hint=512, epi_flag_batch=[2, 4], atomic balancing, F4, two decode groups and S2. epi=epi_warps; dispatch=reuse_dispatch_warps. N64/N128 select three/two decoded TMEM stages. Manual S3 remains supported/default; in-kernel FC2 reduction is disabled.

Environment and reproduction

Both runs use eight B300 SXM6 AC GPUs, SM103 and host driver 590.48.01. Preserve image Torch/system toolkit. Loaded-library versions come from worker maps; native DSL compiler identity, not system nvcc, selects the decoder.

🔬 Experimental Track

• This PR is experimental: it adds or changes code under flashinfer/experimental/ and/or an @flashinfer_experimental_api. Tracking issue: #
  • The tracking issue names an owner, the reason for the experimental path, and a graduation plan with a target release.
  • Core changes are limited to a thin entry point (signature, shared validation, feature-gate check, backend selection, handoff).
  • Tests live in tests/experimental/ and were validated on the intended hardware; a runnable example is included.
  • Nothing is registered in flashinfer/aot.py, and no experimental backend is reachable from backend="auto" without FLASHINFER_ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_AUTO_BACKENDS=1. (Calling an @flashinfer_experimental_api or naming a backend explicitly is itself the opt-in and needs no environment variable.)
  • Test scope declared below. The experimental CI lane runs exactly these targets, so keep them as narrow as the change allows.

# One target per line: a directory or a file. (A pytest ::selector is not
# supported -- the sharding runner cannot consume one.) Must be under
# tests/experimental/ and must exist. Delete these comment lines and add yours, e.g.
#
#   tests/experimental/test_my_backend.py

# Declaring the whole tree (tests/experimental/) is allowed but means every
# experimental PR pays for every other feature's tests, in every matrix cell.

Add the consumer proxy-fence pair before the FC2 TMA read. After the FC2 fc1_done wait, the warp == 6 path calls _activation_task with ba2 and bt2. That helper issues the activation TMA copy without cute.arch.fence_proxy("async") and cute.arch.fence_proxy("async.global"). The TMA read can observe stale FC1 output and produce incorrect W4A16 results. Add both fences immediately before the FC2 _activation_task call.

Add the async-proxy acquire fences in token_back_by_push. After the fc2_done_counter wait, this consumer reads TokenSrcMetadata and issues TMA reads from fc2_output_workspace and fc2_output_sf without fence_proxy("async") and fence_proxy("async.global"). The consumer can forward stale FC2 data or metadata to peers. Add both fences after the wait and before the first read in flashinfer/moe_ep/kernel_src/cutedsl_megamoe/src/src/token_comm.py.

[zianglih]

Checked both fence findings against 33c8544d. I don't think the additional consumer fences are needed with the current producer-side ordering:

• FC1 → FC2 activation: all 128 epilogue threads pass the named barrier, then execute the global proxy fence before publishing completion with red.release.gpu. The consumer's spin_wait uses ld.acquire.gpu. When peek_ready skips that wait, the scheduler has already acquired completion and hands work over through its synchronized pipeline.
• FC2 → dispatch return: the same producer fence executes for dispatch-return mode before release publication; token_back_by_push acquires that completion before reading the output. Metadata reads use the generic proxy, and W4A16 disables the output scale-factor path mentioned in the finding.

The ordering chain is therefore STG → epilogue barrier → publisher's async.global fence → release counter → acquire wait → TMA. Each rotating publisher executes its own fence; delayed flag publication preserves this chain. PTX defines these as bidirectional proxy fences whose effects compose with other synchronization, rather than a mandatory producer/consumer fence pair.

I also checked CuTe 4.7.1's lowering: fence_proxy("async") is the unqualified async fence, already covering global memory, so adding async.global immediately after it duplicates that coverage. BF16/MXFP8's consumer placement accompanies a different producer implementation that only uses a generic fence.

Keeping the existing producer fences. Generated PTX/SASS confirms both are emitted; broader numerical, sanitizer and performance validation is continuing separately.

Evict BF16 staging entries before final workspace destruction. W4A16CutedslMegaKernelBackend inherits the default no-op _forget_workspace_state. After MegaMoEW4A16SymmBuffer.destroy() frees its symmetric buffers, a later allocation can reuse their pointers. If the input pointers, workspace pointers, shapes, strides, and stream all match launch_key, stage_mega_moe_inputs reuses the cached cutlass.torch.from_dlpack(...).mark_layout_dynamic(...) views without rebinding them. CUTLASS documents these zero-copy views as valid only while their source storage remains valid, so the cached views may reference the released workspace.

Add a _forget_workspace_state implementation that removes _STAGERS entries for the destroyed workspace before workspace.destroy() runs. Clear the cache if identifying affected entries is not possible.
