WalkthroughChangesThe change adds Qwen-VL and Mamba Triton warmup paths, updates Qwen GDN warmup requirements, integrates the new paths into kernel warmup orchestration, and revises CUDA-gated tests. Triton warmup integration
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This change adds Triton warmups intended to remove first-request compilation delays, but grouped Mamba cache configurations can still miss the memcpy warmup and the dispatch path lacks retained coverage. This can leave affected Mamba requests exposed to the latency regression, so the issue should be resolved before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

[Perf] Extend Qwen Triton warmup to avoid first-request latency spikes
Purpose
Extend
qwen_triton_warmupso remaining Qwen3.5 / Qwen3-Next Triton kernels compile before the JIT monitor is armed, instead of on the first live request. That first-request compile spike is a large hit for latency-sensitive serving.The warnings below were captured on pooling Qwen3.5 (embedding / classification). Generate VL hits most of the same kernels (
_bilinear_pos_embed_kernel,rotary_kernel,layer_norm_fwd_kernel, plustriton_mrope/batch_memcpy_kernel); dummy runs do not enumerate those compile keys either. The extra pooling-only gap is GDN prefill (_causal_conv1d_fwd_kernel,_fused_post_conv_kernel), which generate warmup on main already covers but pooling skipped viaif runner.is_pooling_model: return.This continues #40137, #36599, #37338, #47539, #47546 and is complementary to #48363. It addresses leftover JIT-monitor warnings from #43009 (
_bilinear_pos_embed_kernel,rotary_kernel,_causal_conv1d_fwd_kernel,_fused_post_conv_kernel,layer_norm_fwd_kernel, plusbatch_memcpy_kernel/ M-RoPE).Fixes part of #43009.
Problem
Observed on pooling-mode Qwen3.5 (embedding / classification). After engine warmup, the first live pooling request paid Triton JIT; the second reused the in-process cache and was >2s faster on L20. A multi-second first-request spike is a large hit for latency-sensitive serving (online embedding / classification, tight SLO, first-token).
jit_monitor(#40137) logged:Generate Qwen3.5-VL uses most of these same kernels on the first real request. Dummy max-token / CUDA-graph runs do not compile
_bilinear_pos_embed_kernel,rotary_kernel,layer_norm_fwd_kernel,triton_mrope, orbatch_memcpy_kerneleither. The new vision / M-RoPE / RMSNormGated / memcpy launchers therefore apply to both generate and pooling.What pooling uniquely exposed:

That is why_causal_conv1d_fwd_kerneland_fused_post_conv_kernelstill JIT on the first pooling request even though generate warmup already covers them.if runner.is_pooling_model: return). See Pooling._bilinear_pos_embed_kernel/rotary_kernelspecialize on grid H/W 16-divisibility (generate VL and pooling VL). Related: [Bugfix] Avoid shape-specialized Qwen3-VL pos-embed JIT #47637 (do_not_specializeon H/W); this PR warms the kernels instead of changing specialization.triton_mropeonly with 2-D positions(3, T).

Triton’s key is(M specialization, ROWS_PER_BLOCK)plus gatedHAS_Z=True. Dummy max-batch only covers one bucket. Scanning1..max_num_tokenswould also cover the keys but is an O(N) startup tax; warmup should enumerate the{1, %16==0, other} × ROWS_PER_BLOCKclasses instead.batch_memcpy_kernel. Only launched on the Mamba/GDN prefix-cache state copy (do_mamba_copy_block). Dummy / CUDA graph / GDN post-conv never reach it. Triton’s key includes pointer dtypes (src=*u64, dst=*u64, sizes=*i32).
