Conversation
Build execution plans in priority order, report each attempt, and execute the first supported plan. Preserve any NVRTC compilation failure through fallback execution and numerical comparison so the testcase still fails with complete context.
Emit versioned JSON events for active configurations and final pass, skip, and failure outcomes, with optional per-worker JSONL files for parallel runs. Preserve the existing human-readable output and repro context.
Query each candidate through the public graph API and report its execution plan index, public graph engine index, and complete knob choices for build, execution, and comparison events. Include the selected plan in numeric failure repro context.
On comparison failure, emit up to eight unique tensor locations balanced between absolute- and relative-error rankings. Include actual, reference, absolute error, and relative error values while keeping non-finite values valid in JSON output.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe large-tensor fuzzer now emits structured diagnostic events, records plan identities and execution results, reports detailed mismatches, and handles plan-build and cuDNN execution outcomes across standard, regenerated, and exact-reproduction runs.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
A re-raised non-NVRTC error discards the NVRTC failures already collected.
At Line 1370 the function re-raises before returning a _PlanBuildSelection. In _run_cudnn, selection still holds the initial _PlanBuildSelection(None, 0, ()), so the except (RuntimeError, OSError) handler at Line 1488 reports no prior plan-build failures. Earlier NVRTC failures are lost for exactly the reporting path the PR aims to strengthen.
Attach the collected failures to the re-raised error, or return the selection with an explicit hard-error field instead of propagating the raw exception.
🐛 Proposed fix: carry the collected failures into the re-raised error

Summary
Improves the large-tensor convolution fuzzer's plan handling and failure
output. The fuzzer now builds execution plans in priority order, reports each
plan attempt, and executes the first plan that builds successfully.
If an earlier plan fails NVRTC compilation, the fuzzer continues checking
later plans. If one builds, it still executes and is compared with the PyTorch
reference, but the testcase retains the earlier compilation failure. If no
plan builds, the testcase fails with the attempted-plan details instead of
treating the graph as ordinarily unsupported.
Plan output now includes the execution plan index, public graph engine index,
and knob choices. Versioned JSON events report active configurations, plan
builds, execution, comparison, skips, failures, and passing completion. Events
are printed to standard output and can optionally be written to per-worker
JSONL files through
CUDNN_FUZZ_EVENTS_DIR.Numeric failures now report up to eight unique mismatch locations selected
across the largest absolute and relative errors. Each sample includes the
actual value, reference value, absolute error, and relative error.
Why
A plan compilation failure can otherwise look like an unsupported generated
graph, causing the fuzzer to skip a real backend failure. Building plans one at
a time preserves that failure while still allowing a later plan to run when
one is available.
The additional plan and mismatch details make failures easier to reproduce and
route without changing the generated test space or comparison tolerances. The
JSON event stream also makes large sweeps easier to inspect without parsing
pytest's human-readable output.

CUDNN_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR_COMPILATION_FAILED. Both failed the testcaseinstead of being reported as unsupported.
PyTorch comparison.
corresponding fix; both built, executed, and passed the comparison.
Saved event files from the extended sweeps contained
50,409valid JSONrecords with no malformed rows. Four numeric mismatch events each reported no
more than eight unique samples.
The observed NVRTC failures exposed only one execution-plan candidate. These
runs therefore did not exercise the path where an earlier plan fails NVRTC and
a later plan builds and executes successfully.
