Description

This PR migrates the DSv4 NVIDIA MoE execution, routing, and distributed JIT kernels to the shared warmup contract.

What Changed

• Migrated DSv4 top-k and fused router kernels.
• Migrated MegaMoE preparation, fused batched MoE, NVFP4 emulation, and TRT-LLM LoRA kernels.
• Migrated DeepEP/DeepGEMM utility and fused MoE post-processing kernels.
• Preserved existing runtime heuristics and performance specialization behavior.
• Added compile-only Triton and CuTeDSL implementations.
• Added dispatch-equivalence and kernel-specific warmup tests.

Walkthrough

The change migrates fused MoE Triton kernels to VllmTritonJitKernel classes with compile-key dispatch, warmup input generation, and launcher-based execution. It updates expert-parallel, routing, DeepEP, LoRA, NVFP4, and MegaMoE paths. DeepSeek V4 and Kimi K3 now invoke kernel singletons and register backend-specific warmups. MegaMoE staging tests now call the compiled kernel singleton directly.

Priority: ➖ Normal — Schedule the DSv4 MoE warmup migration because it changes routing, fused execution, and distributed kernel paths across the NVIDIA model runtime.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2e156

Several MoE configurations can still compile kernels during their first forward pass, causing avoidable startup or first-request latency. These warmup mismatches should be corrected before merge.

In `@tests/kernels/moe/test_topk_softplus_sqrt.py`:
- Line 271: The two call sites in tests/kernels/moe/test_topk_softplus_sqrt.py
at lines 271-271 and 612-612 incorrectly invoke _DSV4_TOPK_KERNEL and unpack its
launch specification as top-k tensors. Restore the dsv4_topk wrapper at both
sites, passing the existing inputs and dtype so each call returns topk_weights
and topk_ids with valid dtype attributes; alternatively, explicitly allocate and
pass the kernel’s required output tensors.

In `@tests/models/test_deepseek_v4_moe_jit_warmup.py`:
- Around line 543-554: Update the DSV4TopKKernel dispatch test to provide the
required has_vl and image_sentinel_lo arguments in both dispatch and CompileKey
construction, then add a second case with has_vl=True and a non-zero
image_sentinel_lo to cover VL routing-key behavior.

In `@vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/experts/fused_batched_moe.py`:
- Around line 604-606: Update the __call__ signature for the fused batched MoE
kernel to replace the variadic *args collector with the 29 explicitly named
positional kernel inputs, matching the Triton kernel parameter names and
warmup_inputs ordering so kernel_launcher binds dimensions, strides, and
quantization flags individually. Keep the shared compile-path tuple unpacking
fix separate and preserve existing argument handling for the named inputs.

In `@vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/fused_moe.py`:
- Around line 930-932: Standardize warmup_inputs and VllmTritonJitKernel.compile
on one compatible return contract: update FusedMoeTritonKernel.warmup_inputs in
vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/fused_moe.py#L930-L932,
FusedMoeNvfp4EmulationKernel.warmup_inputs in
vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/experts/nvfp4_emulation_moe.py#L442-L444,
and BatchedTritonKernel.warmup_inputs in
vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/experts/fused_batched_moe.py#L604-L606 to
return the mapping expected by VllmTritonJitKernel.compile, or consistently
change compile to unpack the existing argument/keyword pair.

In `@vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/prepare_finalize/deepep_v2.py`:
- Around line 605-617: The warmup_inputs method must choose a positive token
count whose total elements, num_tokens multiplied by compile_key.topk, maps
through triton_scalar_specialization_rep to compile_key.n_elements, rather than
using floor division that can produce zero. Update the recv_topk_idx shape in
warmup_inputs and account for nontrivial specialization boundaries such as topk
6 with n_elements 16, preserving the requested CompileKey for all supported
inputs.

In `@vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/router/base_router.py`:
- Around line 156-164: Update warmup_inputs so logical_replica_count and
logical_to_physical_map use torch.int64, matching the runtime tensors created by
EplbState, while leaving unrelated warmup tensor dtypes unchanged.

In `@vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/utils.py`:
- Around line 236-237: Update CountExpertNumTokensKernel’s __call__ path to use
the block_size supplied by the compile key rather than recomputing it from the
topk_ids tensor shape; update warmup_inputs to pass compile_key.block_size
explicitly so warmup and runtime use the same BLOCK_SIZE specialization.

vllm/model_executor/layers/fused_moe/experts/fused_batched_moe.py (1)

618-621: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Warmup builds C as bfloat16 for every dtype.

The compile key carries dtype and compute_type, but the output tensor is always torch.bfloat16. For a float16 or float32 model, the runtime C dtype differs, so the warmup compile key does not match the runtime Triton cache key and the kernel compiles on the first request. Derive the c_ptr dtype from the compile key, or record the output dtype in CompileKey.
