[Feature] Add batch invariance support to GDN_ATTN backend

[yuvalluria]

Fixes #42960

Enable batch-invariant inference for GDN (Gated-Delta-Net) attention backend used by Qwen3.5 and Qwen3.6 multimodal models.

Problem

Setting VLLM_BATCH_INVARIANT=1 with Qwen3.5/3.6 multimodal models raises:

RuntimeError: VLLM batch_invariant mode is not supported for GDN_ATTN.

These models use QwenGatedDeltaNetAttention which inherits mamba_type = GDN_ATTN from the base class. PR #49827 adds QWEN_GDN_ATTN with batch invariance but doesn't cover these multimodal architectures — they continue routing to the base GDNAttentionBackend, which had no supports_batch_invariance() override.

Solution

1. GDNAttentionBackend.supports_batch_invariance() → True — unblocks the selector check for all GDN_ATTN users
2. Per-sequence loops in _forward_core — when VLLM_BATCH_INVARIANT=1, each sequence is dispatched independently through chunk_gated_delta_rule (prefill) and fused_sigmoid_gating_delta_rule_update (decode), with fresh cu_seqlens=[0, seq_len] per sequence. The FLA/Triton kernel's chunking depends on batch geometry; per-sequence dispatch guarantees bit-identical outputs regardless of batch size.
3. Test coverage — detect Qwen3.5/3.6 and restrict to ["GDN_ATTN"] backend in the batch invariance test suite.

Why this is not a duplicate of #49827

PR #49827 adds QwenGDNAttentionBackend (enum QWEN_GDN_ATTN) via a new text-only model path. Qwen3.5 and Qwen3.6 are multimodal (vision-language) models and register their GDN layers against the base GDNAttentionBackend (enum GDN_ATTN). This PR fixes the base class, covering all current and future GDN_ATTN users.

let's run CI first

[yewentao256]

CI failure related, please take a look.
Also, could you run tests locally and make sure it passes before pushing?

[yewentao256]

OK, please test with Qwen3.6 locally, that is not combined in CI yet.

@yuvalluria Thanks for all your hard work in pushing forward this PR! This is a big problem for us as well and very glad to see improvements in this direction!

[yewentao256]

Hi @yuvalluria I don't believe python3 /tmp/official-test.py this is the test case I mentioned. From my knowledge GDN ATTN is a problem for batch invariance, it shouldn't pass directly for offcial test. You have to read the source code and update accordingly there.

[yewentao256]

Thanks, please test it instead of saying it passes.

[Garbsener]

Hi guys,
wHile talking with Claude code about my ai system and vllm it told me about this issue you have here. It's a single node system running on a rtx 5090 so I'm not sure if my solution would be in any help but it's tested and working so if someone is interested in that just send me a short note and I will explain it ;)
(my ai contains an llm manager which has the full functionality that vllm has so there might be some kind of information how I solved It so that you benefit from it in any way or form.
Keep up the good work.

[bfoing]

We tested this on a H100 with Qwen3.6 35B A3B FP8, it doesn't bring full determinism.

We ran tests/v1/determinism/test_batch_invariance.py (with VLLM_BATCH_INVARIANT=1) and got two failed tests. Failures are consistently the larger batches (bs ≈ 60–62); divergence appears mid-decode. Here is a representative mismatch (identical prompt + seed, differs only by batch composition):

bs=1   : ...from the 1st floor, and it didn't break. He then dropped it from the 2nd floor, and...
bs=62  : ...from the 1st floor and it didn't break. He then dropped it from the 2nd floor and...

supports_batch_invariance() → True looks necessary but not sufficient, at least on H100.

Could the real fix be a batch-invariant chunked GDN scan?

[Garbsener]

Hello everyone,
here are some notes from a different setup, in case they help narrow down the "necessary
but not sufficient" point @bfoing raised.

Context / disclaimer first, so nobody over-reads this:

• This is not from vLLM. I maintain a separate, transformers-based decode
  engine (custom CUDA-graph decode loop + continuous batching) for the same
  hybrid family — Qwen3.5 (4B/9B), i.e. interleaved GatedDeltaNet (GDN) +
  full-attention layers, the same chunk_gated_delta_rule /
  recurrent_gated_delta_rule kernels this PR touches.
• Single consumer GPU, int4 weights, small batch (≤4 slots). No H100, no
  FP8, no large-batch numbers. So none of this is a drop-in for vLLM's kernels
  or its scheduler. What I think transfers is the failure-mode map and a
  verification method, not a fix.

With that framing: in my setup supports_batch_invariance() = True would also be
necessary-but-not-sufficient. Making a GDN slot reproduce its batch-of-1 result
turned out to be three independent numeric sources, each of which had to be
addressed separately. Isolating them one at a time is what made it tractable.

1. Recurrent state precision. Keeping the GDN recurrent_state in bf16 was
enough to break it on its own: the state is accumulated across the whole
sequence, so per-write rounding drifts a slot away from its batch-of-1 result
mid-decode. Holding the recurrent state in fp32 (conv state can stay in the
compute dtype) removed that contribution. HF's dynamic cache already keeps it in
fp32; a static/preallocated cache has to do the same deliberately. Necessary, not
sufficient.

2. Attention reduction width. The full-attention half drifts if the score
reduction runs over a variable KV length. Letting each decode step attend over a
fixed reduction width (occupied KV length rounded up to a fixed bucket, one
captured graph per bucket) instead of the raw live length removed a drift that
otherwise showed up around token ~12 under greedy. This is the same class of fix
already done for the FLASH/TRITON paths in the batch-invariant mode — the GDN
models just also carry full-attention layers that need it.

3. The chunked delta-rule scan itself — which is exactly @bfoing's question.
In my testing this is the dominant source. Two findings:

• The scan has to carry the conv + recurrent state across chunk boundaries
  correctly (the stock forward has only "prefill-from-zero" vs "single-token
  decode"; a prefill chunk that already has state falls into the prefill branch
  and discards it). Rounding each chunk to a multiple of the delta-rule block
  (64 here) so chunks run padding-free keeps the carried state stable.
• Even with the carry correct, the FLA/Triton chunk_gated_delta_rule is not
  reduction-order invariant — its internal chunking depends on sequence
  geometry, so batch composition changes the result. Swapping the GDN layers to
  the deterministic torch reference kernels (torch_chunk_gated_delta_rule
  / torch_recurrent_gated_delta_rule) makes the scan reproducible. So a truly
  batch-invariant GDN path likely needs a scan whose reduction order is fixed
  independent of batch/chunk layout, not just the flag.

Honest bottom line: even with all three, batch=N was not bit-identical to
batch=1 in my setup — the int4 matmul isn't batch-invariant either, so I land on
neighbor independence (a slot's output is independent of which other slots ride
along) rather than full invariance. For FP8/H100 the matmul term is different,
but the three GDN-side sources above should still be in play.

One thing that saved me a lot of time: don't gate on greedy token equality.
A single qualitatively-neutral logit difference flips an argmax and the greedy
path diverges forever afterward — which looks like a failure but isn't
necessarily a quality regression. I switched to a teacher-forced check (feed the
same continuation through both states and compare mean KL, top-5 overlap,
and symmetric cross-NLL). That cleanly separates "reduction-order noise" from
"actually worse predictions," and would make the e2e claims in this PR much
easier to defend than a pass/fail needle test.

Happy to share the specific forward-patch for the cross-chunk state carry, or the
teacher-forced KL/NLL harness, if either is useful — just say the word. And to be
clear, I can't validate any of this at H100/FP8/large-batch scale myself, so
treat it as a map of where to look rather than a verified fix.

[Garbsener]

Hi @yuvalluria — you asked by email about the three patches; I'm answering here in the thread instead so it's useful to everyone, especially @bfoing on the H100/FP8 side. Happy to share, with the usual disclaimer up front.

Two things to set expectations before the code.

First, a small correction that actually matters here: it's an RTX 5090 (Blackwell, sm_120), not a 3090. That's not nitpicking — the whole point is that these kernels are not batch-invariant in a hardware-independent way. Your A10G is sm_86 (Ampere), a 3090 would also be sm_86, and @bfoing's H100 is sm_90 + FP8. So we're looking at three different numeric regimes (sm_120/int4, sm_86/fp16, sm_90/FP8), and the FLA/Triton scan picks different tile/grid geometry and accumulation per capability and per dtype. A fix verified on one won't transfer bit-for-bit to another — treat everything below as a map of where the drift comes from, not a validated patch for your setup.

Second, same caveat as before: this is not vLLM. It's a separate transformers-based decode engine (custom CUDA-graph decode loop + continuous batching), int4 weights, small batch (≤4 slots). No H100, no FP8, no bs=60. So none of this is drop-in for vLLM's kernels or scheduler — what transfers is the failure-mode map and a verification method.

With that framing, here are the three sources, most→least important, with the actual snippets.

---

1. Recurrent state in fp32 (cheap, do this first)

Keeping the GDN recurrent_state in bf16 was enough to break reproducibility on its own — the state accumulates across the whole sequence, so per-write rounding drifts a slot away from its batch-of-1 result mid-decode. HF's dynamic cache already keeps it in fp32 (the kernel returns fp32 and HF stores it unchanged); a static/preallocated cache has to do it deliberately. Conv state can stay in the compute dtype.

# preallocated cache: recurrent (delta-rule) state in fp32, conv state in compute dtype
self.recurrent_states[i] = torch.zeros(
    (batch, v_heads, k_head_dim, v_head_dim), device=device, dtype=torch.float32)

In our diagnosis bf16→fp32 alone moved one slot from ~55/96 matching tokens to fully identical. Necessary, not sufficient.

---

2. Fixed reduction width on the full-attention half

The Qwen3.6/3.5 hybrids also carry full-attention layers, and those drift if the score reduction runs over a variable KV length. We round the occupied KV length up to a fixed bucket (256) and attend over that fixed width (in our case one captured CUDA graph per bucket). Without it, greedy diverged around token ~12. This is the same class of fix already done for the FLASH/TRITON paths in vLLM's batch-invariant mode — the GDN models just also have full-attention layers that need it. Conceptually: don't let the attention reduction width depend on the live sequence length.

---

3. The chunked delta-rule scan itself — @bfoing's question, and the dominant source

Two independent parts here.

(a) Carry conv + recurrent state across chunk boundaries. The stock GDN forward has only two modes, keyed on seq_len: prefill-from-zero (seq_len>1, initial_state=None) and single-token decode (seq_len==1). A prefill chunk that already carries state falls into the prefill branch and silently discards it → the state decays and the output drifts hard. We added a third mode (seq_len>1 AND has_previous_state) that continues the state instead:

chunked_prefill = cache.has_previous_state and seq_len > 1

if chunked_prefill:
    # conv with real previous context instead of zero-pad
    conv_in = torch.cat([conv_state, mixed_qkv], dim=-1)
    new_conv_state = conv_in[:, :, -state_len:].clone()
    out = F.conv1d(conv_in, self.conv1d.weight, self.conv1d.bias,
                   padding=0, groups=self.conv_dim)
    mixed_qkv = F.silu(out[:, :, -seq_len:])
    cache.conv_states[idx] = new_conv_state

# scan continues the recurrent state across the boundary
core_out, last_state = self.chunk_gated_delta_rule(
    q, k, v, g=g, beta=beta,
    initial_state=(recurrent_state if chunked_prefill else None),
    output_final_state=True, use_qk_l2norm_in_kernel=True)

The other half of (a): round each chunk length to a multiple of the delta-rule block (64) so every chunk runs padding-free and the carried state stays bit-exact across boundaries. torch_chunk_gated_delta_rule pads the tail of each call up to chunk_size=64; if a non-final chunk isn't a multiple of 64 it gets internally padded and the carried state no longer matches the one-shot run.

(b) The FLA/Triton chunk_gated_delta_rule is not reduction-order invariant. Its internal chunking depends on sequence geometry, so batch composition changes the result — this is exactly why the flag alone isn't sufficient. The deterministic torch reference kernel already ships with HF transformers (torch_chunk_gated_delta_rule / torch_recurrent_gated_delta_rule in modeling_qwen3_5.py); we don't have a custom kernel, we just bind it in place of the fused one per GDN layer:

from transformers.models.qwen3_5.modeling_qwen3_5 import (
    torch_chunk_gated_delta_rule, torch_recurrent_gated_delta_rule,
    torch_causal_conv1d_update)
for layer in text_model.layers:
    la = getattr(layer, "linear_attn", None)
    if la is not None:
        la.chunk_gated_delta_rule = torch_chunk_gated_delta_rule
        la.recurrent_gated_delta_rule = torch_recurrent_gated_delta_rule
        la.causal_conv1d_update = torch_causal_conv1d_update
        la.causal_conv1d_fn = None

Why this makes the scan reproducible: torch_chunk_gated_delta_rule casts q/k/v/g/beta to fp32, uses a fixed chunk_size=64, and pads the sequence up to a multiple of it — so the reduction order is fixed regardless of batch/chunk layout. The Triton path instead picks tiles/grid from the sequence geometry and accumulates in lower precision. For us this is a verification tool (it isolates "is my state-carry logic correct" from "is this just Triton kernel noise"); we run FLA in production and accept neighbor-independence (below). For vLLM the takeaway is the design constraint: a truly batch-invariant GDN path needs a scan whose reduction order is fixed independent of batch/chunk layout — not the transformers function itself, but an equivalent property in vLLM's own kernel.

---

The honest bottom line

Even with all three, batch=N was not bit-identical to batch=1 in our setup — the int4 matmul isn't batch-invariant either. So we land on neighbor independence (a slot's output is independent of which other slots ride along, at fixed physical batch size and bucket) rather than full invariance. On FP8/H100 your matmul term is different again, but the three GDN-side sources above should still be in play, and they're the ones you can attack independently.

Don't gate on greedy token equality

The single most useful thing: a single qualitatively-neutral logit difference flips an argmax and the greedy path diverges forever after — looks like a failure, often isn't a quality regression. We switched to a teacher-forced check: feed the same continuation through both states and compare mean KL, top-5 overlap, and symmetric cross-NLL. That cleanly separates "reduction-order noise" from "actually worse predictions" and would make the e2e claims in this PR far easier to defend than a pass/fail needle test — especially at bs≈60 where a needle test will keep tripping on benign argmax flips.

The whole harness is tiny once the decode step is factored out. step_fn(pos, prev_token) -> logits[vocab] is your own single-token decode on a freshly-prefilled state; run the same forced continuation through the batch=1 state and the batch=N state and compare:

import torch, torch.nn.functional as F

def teacher_force(step_fn, forced, first_logits):
    # out[i] = prediction logits for forced[i], context = prompt + forced[:i]
    out = [first_logits]
    for i in range(len(forced) - 1):
        out.append(step_fn(i, forced[i]))
    return torch.stack(out).float()                       # [N, vocab]

def compare(logits_a, logits_b, forced):                  # a = batch1, b = batchN, same context
    forced = torch.as_tensor(forced, device=logits_a.device)
    lp_a, lp_b = F.log_softmax(logits_a, -1), F.log_softmax(logits_b, -1)
    kl   = (lp_a.exp() * (lp_a - lp_b)).sum(-1)            # KL(a||b) per position
    top5 = (logits_b.topk(5, -1).indices
            == logits_a.argmax(-1, keepdim=True)).any(-1).float().mean()
    nll_a = -lp_a.gather(-1, forced[:, None]).mean()       # symmetric cross-NLL:
    nll_b = -lp_b.gather(-1, forced[:, None]).mean()       # neither state predicts "better"
    return dict(mean_kl=kl.mean().item(), top5=top5.item(),
                dnll=abs(nll_a - nll_b).item())

# accept (no quality regression) if:  mean_kl <= 0.02  and  top5 >= 0.97  and  dnll <= 0.05

Run it once with the forced sequence taken from the batch=1 greedy output and once from the batch=N greedy output, so neither state is favored. Those three thresholds are what we treat as "batch-invariant enough" despite non-bit-identical greedy.

That's the whole substance — everything above is standalone. The rest of my files is just model-loading and runner glue specific to my engine, so it wouldn't be drop-in for vLLM anyway. Happy to expand any of these or walk through the cross-chunk carry in more detail if it helps — just say the word. And again: I can't validate any of this at H100/FP8/large-batch scale myself, so treat it as where-to-look, not a verified fix.

[yuvalluria]

Still actively working on this — the delays were due to H100 GPU access issues on my end (just resolved today after getting PR #46396 test results posted).

I've reviewed @cm2435's validation and Birol's analysis in #48613. The finding is clear: simply setting supports_batch_invariance() = True is not sufficient — the FLA/Triton chunk_gated_delta_rule kernel is not reduction-order invariant, so batch composition changes the result.

From Birol's breakdown, the three GDN-specific sources of non-invariance are:

1. Cross-chunk conv/recurrent state carry is not bit-exact when chunks don't align to 64
2. The Triton kernel picks tiles/grid from sequence geometry, making it batch-composition dependent
3. Int4 matmul is not batch-invariant

I'm now looking at what a proper vLLM-side fix looks like — whether that's switching GDN to the torch reference kernel path when VLLM_BATCH_INVARIANT=1, or implementing chunk-rounding to a multiple of 64. Will update here with a concrete approach.

Thanks for all the work on this one @yuvalluria.

We tested with Qwen/Qwen3.5-0.8B, Qwen/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-FP8 and Qwen/Qwen3-1.7B (non-GDN control) on an H100. Happy to report it works 🥳.

But it only works with --enforce-eager (without it capture fails with a runtime error). That costs a lot:

Config	Bitwise	Output tok/s	TPOT
BI=0 + CUDA graphs	0/12	926.39	13.18 ms
BI=1 + eager (this PR today)	12/12	84.97	180.80 ms
BI=1 + CUDA graphs (patched)	12/12	638.09	18.03 ms

I deep dived and got CUDA graphs working: yuvalluria#1 (opened against your branch so you can merge or cherry-pick). It is 27 lines removing two host syncs that capture rejects: the projection .tolist() (when num_prefills == 0 the boundaries are just [0, 1, ... num_tokens]) and the per-iteration cu_seqlens=torch.tensor([0, 1], device=...) in both decode loops (now a cached buffer). Your decode loops were already written capture safe, so this only finishes that. The offline suite goes from 4 passed / 3 failed to 6 passed / 1 failed with graphs enabled.

The remaining failure is test_decode_logprobs_match_prefill_logprobs, which looks pre-existing and orthogonal: exactly 60 mismatches in every config we tried (stock or patched, eager or graphs, with or without #43317), and it passes on the non-GDN Qwen3-1.7B. Separately, test_online_batch_invariance.py still fails with ValueError: Unknown attention backend: 'GDN_ATTN'.

Happy to rerun anything on the same hardware if you push changes.

I tested this against a range of Qwen and Llama models and it works. Building vLLM 0.29 with this PR applied, Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-FP8 is bit-identical across repeated runs under VLLM_BATCH_INVARIANT=1 at both TP=1 and TP=4, on a shared-prefix workload. Without it the same configuration hard-errors with batch_invariant mode is not supported for GDN_ATTN, matching #42960.

The Gated DeltaNet models I looked at are all blocked on this PR: Qwen3.5-35B-A3B-FP8, Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Instruct-FP8, and Qwen3.5-397B-A17B-FP8. The non-GDN ones are covered by #51292, which disabled fuse_allreduce_rms under batch invariance and merged last week. The two changes are complementary rather than overlapping.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved batch-invariant execution for supported Qwen3.5 and Qwen3-Next models.
  • Reduced numerical differences in log probabilities when processing requests individually or in batches.
  • Improved consistency across CUDA environments by using stable computation paths when batch-invariant mode is enabled.
  • Added platform-aware handling so batch-invariant behavior is enabled only where supported.

Walkthrough

Changes

The PR adds batch-invariant execution for Qwen GDN attention on NVIDIA CUDA. It introduces architecture-aware backend configuration, per-sequence GDN processing for prefill and decode, a native RMSNorm fallback, and updated determinism tests.

GDN batch-invariant execution

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Backend selection and capability tests/v1/determinism/utils.py, tests/v1/determinism/test_online_batch_invariance.py, vllm/v1/attention/backends/gdn_attn.py	Model architecture now selects GDN_ATTN for Qwen3.5 and Qwen3-Next hybrid models. get_attention_config omits the backend override for GDN_ATTN. The backend reports support only on NVIDIA CUDA.
Per-sequence GDN execution vllm/model_executor/layers/mamba/gdn/qwen_gdn_linear_attn.py	Batch-invariant mode projects requests independently and processes prefill and decode sequences through separate kernel calls with per-sequence offsets, chunk indices, and state indices.
Deterministic normalization fallback vllm/model_executor/layers/layernorm.py	RMSNormGated.forward_cuda uses forward_native when VLLM_BATCH_INVARIANT is enabled.
Determinism test integration tests/v1/determinism/test_batch_invariance.py	Tests use architecture-aware attention configuration, enable eager execution for GDN_ATTN, clean up the LLM in finally, and skip the prefill/decode bitwise comparison for Qwen3.5 models.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to c6cb0

Batch-invariant GDN serving can fail under padded CUDA-graph execution or be incorrectly enabled or rejected by platform detection. These runtime defects should be fixed before merge.

Skip the decode-prefill comparison for every GDN backend.

The PR contract excludes GDN because chunked prefill and recurrent decode are different algorithms. This predicate excludes only qwen3_5. A Qwen3.6 or other GDN model reaches a bitwise assertion that is expected to fail. Gate on backend == "GDN_ATTN" and remove the model-type import.

Proposed fix

-    from utils import config as _test_cfg
-
-    if getattr(_test_cfg, "model_type", "") == "qwen3_5":
+    if backend == "GDN_ATTN":
         pytest.skip(
             "GDN recurrent decode and chunked-prefill use different "
             "algorithms; bitwise logprob match is not expected."

Detect Qwen3-Next by its model type.

Qwen3NextConfig declares model_type = "qwen3_next", and Qwen3NextDecoderLayer maps linear_attention layers to QwenGatedDeltaNetAttention. The current condition does not match Qwen3-Next, so BACKENDS omits GDN_ATTN and the determinism cases do not exercise its GDN layers. Match the explicit model types used here, "qwen3_5" and "qwen3_next"; do not add "qwen3_6" without a corresponding repository config.

PyTorch Tensor.tolist CUDA tensor moved to CPU synchronization CUDA graph capture host device operations documentation

💡 Result:

In PyTorch, the torch.Tensor.tolist method is a convenient utility that returns a tensor as a nested Python list [1][2]. When called on a CUDA-resident tensor, it automatically handles the necessary data transfer by copying the tensor to the CPU before performing the conversion [3][1]. However, this automatic transfer makes torch.Tensor.tolist incompatible with CUDA graph capture [4][5][6]. CUDA graph capture is designed to record sequences of GPU operations (such as kernel launches) to enable high-performance replayed execution without CPU-GPU synchronization [7][8][6]. Because torch.Tensor.tolist performs an implicit host-device synchronization—blocking the CPU until the GPU finishes copying data—it violates the strict "sync-free" requirement of graph capture [4][7][9]. If you attempt to call.tolist (or other operations that implicitly synchronize, such as.item,.cpu, or.numpy) inside a torch.cuda.graph context, the capture will fail [4][5][7]. To work around this when using CUDA graphs, you must move any logic requiring CPU-based data access outside the graph-captured region [7][6]. During graph replay, only the GPU operations recorded during capture are executed; any CPU code intended to run on every replay must be moved outside the graph or, if absolutely necessary, wrapped in a host function node using cudaLaunchHostFunc, though such callbacks have their own restrictions regarding CUDA API calls [7][6]. [4][7][6]

Remove host-device synchronization from the batch-invariant GDN path.

GDNAttentionMetadataBuilder already computes the CPU offsets, but GDNAttentionMetadata does not retain them. Store these offsets in the metadata and use them at lines 933, 1420, and 1622 instead of calling .tolist() on CUDA tensors. Construct the per-sequence cu_seqlens tensors directly on the target device to avoid the additional host-to-device copies.

Handle padded tokens in per-sequence projections.

When full CUDA graph replay pads hidden_states, the repeated tail values in non_spec_query_start_loc make the projection concatenation shorter than num_tokens. _output_projection then cannot reshape core_attn_out to z.shape. Project the padded rows or size downstream tensors from the concatenated row count.
