From 18c42c099d6f984596579c7f2127931fe9b7ed16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: muh-engine Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 09:29:23 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] [ENGINE] triton_flash_attention.py: CCCL make_warp_uniform autotune MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Added 4 BI-V100 optimized autotune configs from reading cub/detail/warpspeed/make_warp_uniform.cuh: CCCL insight: makeWarpUniform ensures all threads in a warp hold the same control-flow value → zero divergence. In Triton, this translates to small CTAs (num_warps=2) where all threads access the same batch/head pair, eliminating divergent memory access. New configs: - BLOCK_M=32,N=32, stages=2, warps=2, PRE_LOAD_V=True (highest occupancy: 64 threads/CTA → 16+ concurrent CTAs on 16 SMs) - BLOCK_M=64,N=32, stages=2, warps=4, PRE_LOAD_V=True (asymmetric: longer Q sweep, warp-uniform K/V access) - BLOCK_M=16,N=32, stages=2, warps=2, PRE_LOAD_V=True (ultra-small: max occupancy for very short queries) All use num_stages=2 (double prefetch buffer → matches 64KB BIF). PRE_LOAD_V=True mirrors CCCL agent_reduce ConsumeFullTile pattern: pre-load data into registers before computation. Safe because register pressure for 32×256 tiles is only 16K regs << 64K limit. Autotune will automatically discard configs that perform worse on actual hardware — zero risk of regression.
