This PR adds an extra-long forward tier on sm_103a to the non-deterministic package of Cake's SiLU-gated RMSNorm training kernel (flashinfer.cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train with deterministic=False). From 3000 rows per SM, the sm_103a forward now runs cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train_7f014401d5cc855ab883, and this route is tried before the long forward's. The new module is a 256-thread forward with the packed gate. In it, thread 0 also warms the CTA's next row block in L2, the same way the mid forward warms its later blocks: one bulk prefetch per tensor wherever the inputs x and z hold their rows packed. All nine changed shapes in Table 1 are at or above 3000 rows per SM on the 152-SM GB300.

The previous Cake baseline below is the long forward, cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train_7b7fac905aff1ddaa258. It ran these inputs before this PR, and it still runs sm_103a inputs from 2400 up to 3000 rows per SM. This PR removes no module. Every other module and route runs the same code as before, including the backward, the short, mid and long forwards, and every sm_100a and sm_107a route.

The PR is one commit on FlashInfer main after PR #8656. The A/B compared two FlashInfer trees. In the first, there is no extra-long route, so the long forward also serves 3000 rows per SM and up. The second is the same tree plus this PR's sm_103a route. Both trees predate PR #8656, which changed only the sm_107a mid forward. In the measured tree, the new module's sources are byte-identical to this PR's.

A speedup is baseline us / new us, so a value above 1 means this PR is faster. The table gives ranges (min-max) over the nine changed shapes of Table 1 on GB300 (sm_103a, 152 SMs), CUDA 13.4.

op	det Cake / new	strongest non-Cake / new	previous Cake / new (A/B)
fwd	1.134-1.164	1.061-1.133	1.039-1.050
fwdg	1.134-1.165	1.053-1.134	1.039-1.049
bwdg	1.114-1.147	1.091-1.115	0.9999-1.0002
ckptg	1.123-1.144	1.093-1.121	1.017-1.022
stepg_f32	1.125-1.145 (A/B)	-	1.017-1.021
fwd + bwd	1.129-1.143 (A/B)	-	1.014-1.018

In the pre-registered A/B, the code changes in 36 cells (fwd, fwdg, ckptg and stepg_f32 at the nine shapes), and new is faster than the previous Cake route in all 36. bwdg and bwdg_f32 run the same code in both trees. Neither the strongest non-Cake kernel (Table 1) nor the deterministic Cake kernel (Tables 1 and 2) is faster than new on any row. Every cell below 1x is a same-code cell against the previous Cake route and is within 0.1 % of parity. "Cells below 1x" lists each one.

The kernel's other Cake variants are the deterministic package flashinfer.cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_det_train (the same API with deterministic=True) and the FP32 weight-gradient output of the non-deterministic package; both packages ship on sm_100a, sm_103a and sm_107a, and this PR changes only the non-deterministic package's forward on sm_103a from 3000 rows per SM.

How the tables were measured

• Latency: CUPTI kernel time with cold L2, taken with FlashInfer's GPU timer in flashinfer.testing. Inputs are BF16, and all times are in us.
• Table 1: the deterministic Cake kernel, the strongest non-Cake kernel and new were measured in the same process. Each value is the median of the per-round medians over 10 rounds.
• A/B values: the previous Cake and new (A/B) columns and all of Table 2 are medians of the pre-registered interleaved A/B, which ran 16 sequences and 160 processes. stepg_f32 has no same-process measurement, so its deterministic Cake values also come from the A/B.
• Strongest non-Cake kernel per row: the fastest of the following, with torch 2.14.1+cu130 and Triton 3.8.0.
  • FLA 0.6.0 rms_norm_gated (fla.modules.fused_norm_gate).
  • mamba_ssm v2.3.2 rmsnorm_fn (layernorm_gated).
  • torch.compile in default and max-autotune-no-cudagraphs modes, best of 5 fresh compiles each. #k names the fastest compile.
  • The inductor-generated persistent-reduction Triton kernel of the FP32 formula, launched directly.
• Deterministic Cake: flashinfer.cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_det_train, unchanged by this PR.
• Operations:
  • fwd is one eager forward call, and fwdg is the forward replayed from a CUDA graph.
  • bwdg is the backward replayed from a CUDA graph, and bwdg_f32 is the same backward with an FP32 dw.
  • ckptg is the checkpointed step (2 x forward + backward) in one CUDA graph, and stepg_f32 is the same step with an FP32 dw.
  • fwd + bwd is fwdg + bwdg, derived.
• In Table 2, the forward at the first nine shapes runs the new module. 7600x48, 9120x48 and 9499x48 are below 3000 rows per SM and run the same code in both trees.

Cells below 1x

• vs the strongest non-Cake kernel (Table 1): none.
• vs the deterministic Cake kernel (Tables 1 and 2): none.
• vs the previous Cake route (A/B), only at cells that run the same code in both trees:
  • Table 1, bwdg: 9500x48 0.99996, 9975x48 0.9999
  • Table 2, changed shapes (backward cells): 9500x48 bwdg 0.99996, 9975x48 bwdg 0.9999, 9975x48 bwdg_f32 0.9998, 19000x48 bwdg_f32 0.99996
  • Table 2, same-code shapes: 7600x48 fwd 0.9999, 7600x48 ckptg 0.9995, 7600x48 bwdg_f32 0.9998, 7600x48 stepg_f32 0.9998, 9120x48 fwd 0.9999, 9120x48 ckptg 0.99996, 9120x48 stepg_f32 0.9998, 9499x48 fwdg 0.99999, 9499x48 bwdg_f32 0.9999
• The same-process run behind Table 1 also timed the previous Cake route. Those times are not in the tables. Its bwdg previous / new, where both routes run the same backward module, is below 1 at 9975x48 0.9997 (107.361 / 107.392 us), 11400x48 0.999 (118.688 / 118.752 us), 14250x48 0.9998 (146.497 / 146.529 us), 19000x48 0.999 (189.217 / 189.312 us) and 32737x48 0.9999 (316.057 / 316.097 us).

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Added support for RMSNorm with SiLU gating in training workflows.
  • On sm_103a, large inputs with at least 3,000 rows per SM now use an extra-long forward path. This path follows the same launch-grid behavior as the long forward path and can prefetch the next row block.
• Bug Fixes
  • Improved handling of forward-path selection around the extra-long threshold.

Walkthrough

Adds an sm_103a extra-long forward tier for the SiLU-gated RMSNorm training kernel. The tier starts at 3000 rows per SM and uses a generated CUDA binding and kernel. Routing, threshold, launch-grid, and stall tests cover the new role.

Changes: Extra-Long Forward

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Kernel and launch binding flashinfer/cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train_backend/csrc/*, flashinfer/cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train_backend/build.json	Adds the CUDA kernel and TVM-FFI run binding. The binding validates inputs and launches the kernel on the current TVM CUDA stream. The build manifest adds the generated library record for sm_103a.
Extra-long module and routing flashinfer/cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train_backend/cake_jit.py, flashinfer/cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train_backend/__init__.py	Adds the sm_103a extra-long module with a 3000-rows-per-SM threshold and next-row-block prefetch. Tier selection checks extra-long before long and mid.
Routing and threshold validation tests/norm/test_cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_det_train_aliases.py, tests/norm/test_cake_rmsnorm_silu_gate_train*.py	Updates role registry, routing, API-threshold, launch-grid, and proportional-stall tests for fwd_xlong.

Possibly related issues

• Issue 6598 tracks non-deterministic forward work for this kernel family, including L2-prefetching mid forwards. This change adds an L2-prefetching extra-long forward for sm_103a.
• Issue 8067 requests non-deterministic SiLU-gated RMSNorm implementations on several architectures. This change adds a forward tier for sm_103a, but does not cover the full requested architecture scope.

Suggested labels: op: misc

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to c630f

The extra-long forward tier has no established merge-blocking regression. The existing weight/output overlap issue remains a follow-up; merge readiness is subject to normal build and GPU tests.

Minor · Data Integrity & Integration · Quick win

Reject an out tensor that overlaps weight before launch.

A weight view of out reaches the kernel unchanged, because _weight and _output return contiguous, aligned tensors as-is. The kernel declares w and y __restrict__. A CTA may write row 0 of y before another CTA loads w, so outputs can depend on scheduling, and the caller's weight is overwritten.

Suggested fix in the Python wrapper

The binding is generated ("Do not edit"), so the check belongs in _forward:

     if rows == 0:
         return y if y_user is None else y_user
+    w_end = w.data_ptr() + w.numel() * w.element_size()
+    y_end = y.data_ptr() + y.numel() * y.element_size()
+    if w.data_ptr() < y_end and y.data_ptr() < w_end:
+        raise ValueError("out must not overlap weight")
     xv, x_tok, x_head = _kernel_view(x, "x", shape=shape, device=device)
