📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughSM100 FP8 and MXFP8 SDPA forward execution now supports packed THD/varlen inputs. The change adds device-side metadata, clamped runtime descriptors, ragged LSE layouts, sequence-length graph inputs, workspace-backed packing, dense D192/D128 engines, and expanded test coverage.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Order the contiguous() copy on the launch stream.
sf.contiguous() allocates and copies when the caller binds a non-contiguous SF buffer. That copy runs on torch's current stream. The kernel below launches on current_stream. If the two streams differ, the kernel can read the copy before the copy completes.
The function already receives current_stream and uses _torch_stream_context for the zero-size stub path. Apply the same context to the copy.
The dense _reshape_sf at Lines 1498-1522 has the same pattern, but it does not receive the stream, so fix the new THD path first.

…via the write_thd_meta envelope design (issue NVIDIA#552) Port the device-built-metadata + plan-time-envelope THD design (PRs NVIDIA#606/NVIDIA#608) into the per-tensor FP8 SM100 kernel, its SM107 (Rubin) sibling (hunk-symmetric), and the block-scale MXFP8 SM100 kernel — the port NVIDIA#622 prescribed when it removed the legacy leg: - Kernels: dynamic packed token extents (cute.sym_int; plan-time-only compile keys), the shared build_thd_meta_o_descs_kernel setup launch (metadata + per -batch O TMA descriptors built device-side, no length ever reaches the host), the plan-time envelope grid with the batch == n_batch dead-unit sentinel (O-store skip; LSE/amax_o predicated on the per-sequence Q length from the device metadata), and ragged Stats in the caller's declared layout (token-major TH1 rank-2 or head-major rank-3, static-rank dispatch). - MXFP8 THD scale factors travel PACKED per-sequence-TILE-padded ([1, H, Σ_b ceil(S_b/128), SF_SMEM] tile sequences in cu_seqlens order, matching the tile base the kernel derives via _thd_sf_tile_bases). The packed tile extent is a runtime value that must come without a device read (Rule 3), so it derives from the SF buffer's byte size — THD SF buffers are exactly the packed layout (its head stride could address nothing else); the SF descriptors use B=1 + dynamic tile extents. - Adapter: factor the SM100 THD packing into _thd_pack (mirrors the SM120 class): metadata/O-desc scratch, capacity token floors, zero-capacity clamps, envelope units — used by the f16 _execute_thd and the new FP8/MXFP8 THD branches. FP8/MXFP8 serve the packed contract only (_thd_check_strides_packed; no stride keys in _thd_compile_kwargs). No Amax_S, no descale_s/scale_s — dropped on these kernels (NVIDIA#602/NVIDIA#619); the amax_o protocol (in-kernel atomicMax, device-side scale_o divide) is unchanged under THD. - Engines: the SM100 FP8/MXFP8 rows declare thd=True + cu_seq_len=True; the arch RANGE (sm 100..119) already routes cc10.7 through the SM107 sibling. - pygraph: sdpa_mxfp8 gains trailing use_padding_mask / seq_len_q / seq_len_kv / cu_seq_len_q / cu_seq_len_kv kwargs (sdpa_fp8 already had them) — the THD length carriers, and dense mxfp8 + KV padding becomes constructible for the first time (tested; stats off — padded_stats is not declared). - Tests: THD self-attention (masks x e4m3/e5m2), cross-attention + GQA, causal+sink, THD+ragged-TH1-stats, and cu_seq_len cases for both fp8 and mxfp8; dense mxfp8 KV-padding; sm107 module-level THD-leg load checks. Verified on B200 (backend 9.23.01): test/python/sdpa/frost 669 passed, 5 failed — all five are cu_seq_len graphs hitting the pre-existing native-lowering version gate (fp8-family cu_seq_len needs the unified node, cuDNN >= 9.24/9.25; develop's own f16 cu tests fail identically on this backend and are green on CI's 9.26).

…ring; E741 renames in the new mxfp8 tests - sdpa_mxfp8 docstring: document cu_seq_len_q / cu_seq_len_kv (prefix-sum semantics, mutual exclusion with seq_len_*, cuDNN 9.24+), matching the sdpa / sdpa_fp8 documentation. - test_sdpa_fwd_mxfp8_sm100.py: rename the six new call sites' O locals to o_out/o_ref (Ruff E741); pre-existing sites unchanged. Not-applicable findings, verified: the dead-unit TMA-load concern is unreachable (THD compiles always carry MASK_PADDED — _mask_flags_from forces it for thd_varlen and _validate_knobs raises otherwise — so the loader's masked-bounds branch resolves the dead unit's empty KV range from the device metadata); test_fp8_thd_leg_loads is already L0 via the file's module-level pytestmark. Validated against the LATEST 9.26 backend (9.26.0.33, headers + libs): fp8/mxfp8/sm107 suites 80 passed (including both cu_seq_len tests the local 9.23 backend gates), f16 THD suite 193 passed.

…s on the THD ABI; NVIDIA#661 d192 kernels join the shared FP8-family ABI; hoist _thd_lse_tokens_cap - test_sdpa_fwd_split_kv_sm100: the fp8/mxfp8 legs drive the kernel hosts positionally and predate the THD ABI (o_desc_words + n_thd_units, both dense-folded) — pass the same dummies the f16 leg already does. - prefill_d192_d128_{fp8,mxfp8}_sm100 (NVIDIA#661, dense-only): accept the same dense-folded THD ABI slots as their d128 siblings so the adapter's launch shape stays uniform across the SM100 FP8 family (the kernels never read them; CFG.THD_VARLEN=1 still fails at trace time — the engine rows and a check_support gate keep THD routed to d128/d128 only). - api_dsl: the THD LSE token-capacity rule (token-major and COMPACT head-major join the packed-Q floor; head-major with a declared stride carries its own extent) was triplicated across the SM100 executes — one documented helper (_thd_lse_tokens_cap) now owns the subtlety.

…packed total; dead-row O := 0 on zero-length KV Two bugs surfaced by the frost:rel:sdpa:sm100 CI mhas fp8 ragged sweeps (gitlab job 404201758, 16 failures): 1. NaN-poisoned capacity tails: test_mhas_v2 NaN-fills the ragged capacity tail past the packed total, and the last sequence's KV envelope tile loads step into it. The padding mask kills those columns in S (NaN-safe select), but BMM2 still computes P(0) . V(NaN) = NaN. Fix: the THD setup kernel (build_thd_meta_o_kv_descs_kernel) now also emits runtime K/V TMA descriptors with GLOBAL_DIM clamped to the device-side packed total cu_k[B] — tail loads land as TMA OOB zero-fill, zero host reads. The fp8/mxfp8 mainloops read them from two extra o_desc_words slots. 2. Zero-length KV sequences (e.g. seq_len_kv=[0, 83, 77]): an empty mainloop never writes the O TMEM, and the epilogue's `o_chunk * inv_sum(=0)` cannot zero the garbage when it happens to be NaN (uninitialized TMEM on the sequence's first tile). Port the f16 dead-row contract (O := 0, LSE := -inf) into the fp8 sm100/sm107 and mxfp8 epilogues: `row_dead = total_sum <= 0` hoisted above the sink branch, and the stored O elements (plus amax_o inputs) selected to 0 explicitly. Tests: frost fp8/mxfp8 suites get NaN-poisoned capacity tails in _dense_buf (mhas parity) and new zero-length-KV THD regression tests; mhas fp8 fwd+bwd ragged L0 sweeps now 46/46 x3 runs, frost fp8/mxfp8/split-kv/sm107 suites 166/166 on cuDNN 9.26.

Port the device-built-metadata + plan-time-envelope THD design (PRs #606/#608) into the per-tensor FP8 SM100 kernel, its SM107 sibling (hunk-symmetric), and the block-scale MXFP8 SM100 kernel — the port #622 prescribed when it removed the legacy leg. Closes the FP8/MXFP8 gap of issue #552.

prefill_d128_fp8_sm100.py,prefill_d128_fp8_sm107.py,prefill_d128_mxfp8_sm100.py)cute.sym_int) — the THD compile keys are plan-time-only; a new packed total re-binds the same artifact.build_thd_meta_o_descs_kernelsetup launch: the[kv | cu_q | cu_k]metadata buffer and the per-batch O TMA descriptors are built device-side from the caller's length tensors (either the(B,)per-batch or the(B+1,)cu prefix-sum form, via the runtimelens_formbitmask) — no length ever reaches the host.batch == n_batchdead-unit sentinel: the O-store role skips the store explicitly, and the epilogue's LSE write +amax_oatomicMax are predicated on the per-sequence Q length from the device metadata (negative for dead units).(T, H)or head-major rank-3(1, QH, head_stride)— via static-rank dispatch in the epilogue.[1, H, sum_b ceil(S_b/128), SF_SMEM]tile sequences in cu_seqlens order, matching the tile base the kernel derives device-side via_thd_sf_tile_bases). The packed tile extent is a runtime value that must come without a device read (Rule 3), so it derives from the SF buffer's byte size — THD SF buffers are exactly the packed layout (their head stride could address nothing else); the SF descriptors use B=1 + dynamic tile extents.Amax_S, nodescale_s/scale_s— dropped on these kernels (frost(sdpa): drop the Amax_S output from the FP8 kernels #602/frost(sdpa): #608 follow-ups — stale THD docs; FP8 scales fold in-kernel (Rule 3, Scale_S gone below the graph); baked 2^4 P-cast bias #619); theamax_oprotocol (in-kernel atomicMax, device-sidescale_odivide) is unchanged under THD.Adapter (

Side effect: dense mxfp8 + KV padding becomes constructible for the first time, and is tested (stats off — the row does not declarepadded_stats).Tests
Validation

test/python/sdpa/frost: 669 passed, 5 failed — all five failures arecu_seq_lengraphs hitting the pre-existing native-lowering version gate (fp8-family cu_seq_len needs the unified node, cuDNN >= 9.24/9.25; develop's own f16 cu tests fail identically on this backend and are green on CI's newer backend).🤖 Generated with Claude Code
