ref(EX): import upstream ILU kernels + xllm MoE CUDA sources into ex_engine
...
Copied from upstream_ref (NOT rewritten — exact upstream code):
ixformer C++ API (the authoritative header):
include/ixformer.h — ixformer::infer namespace: topk_softmax,
moe_compute_token_index_api, moe_w16a16_group_gemm, moe_expand_input,
moe_output_reduce_sum, silu_and_mul, rms_norm, xllm_paged_attention, etc.
include/ilu_ops_api.h — xllm::kernel::ilu namespace: moe_active_topk,
moe_gen_idx, moe_expand_input, group_gemm, moe_combine_result,
batch_prefill, batch_decode, rms_norm, matmul, act_and_mul, etc.
ILU kernel wrappers (call ixformer::infer directly):
csrc/ilu_kernel_fused_moe.cpp — topk routing + gen_idx + expand + combine
csrc/ilu_kernel_group_gemm.cpp — batched expert GEMM
csrc/ilu_kernel_{activation,norm,rope,matmul,attention}.cpp
ILU layer implementations (full pipeline):
csrc/ilu_layer_fused_moe.{cpp,h} — 797 lines, the complete MoE pipeline
that competitor 168 ran as corex_moe.py
csrc/ilu_layer_attention.{cpp,h} — prefill/decode attention dispatch
CUDA MoE kernels (from xllm + ds_vllm):
csrc/moe/moe_topk_softmax_kernels.cuh — CUB BlockReduce + warp topk
csrc/moe/moe_topk_sigmoid_kernels.cuh — sigmoid scoring variant
csrc/moe/moe_topk.cuh + moe_fused_topk.cu — entry points
csrc/moe/moeTopKFuncs.cuh — TRT-LLM derived vllm-compatible topk
csrc/moe/moe_ops.h + moe_align_sum_kernels.cu — alignment kernels
Common layer headers:
csrc/common_fused_moe{,_base}.h + common_moe_fused_topk.{cpp,h}

feat(EX): wire xllm CUB topk_softmax kernel into MoE routing
...
Upstream: xllm/kernels/cuda/moe/moe_topk_softmax_kernels.cuh (Apache 2.0)
Adapted: CHECK→TORCH_CHECK, include path fix, cuda/functional guard, pybind11
Call chain now:
qwen3_5.py:_pure_pytorch_experts()
→ _ex_moe_topk_softmax (fused CUB kernel, 1 launch)
→ fallback: torch.softmax + torch.topk (3 launches)
Files:
ex_engine/csrc/moe/moe_topk_softmax_kernels.cuh — xllm kernel (adapted)
ex_engine/csrc/moe/device_utils.cuh — xllm device utils
ex_engine/csrc/moe/moe_topk_softmax_ext.cu — pybind11 wrapper
ex_engine/python/moe_topk.py — JIT loader (same pattern as flash_qla_sm70)
qwen3_5.py — import + use in _pure_pytorch_experts()
patch_ops.sh — deploy kernel sources for JIT

feat(MoE): full ixformer pipeline — topk → gen_idx → expand → group_gemm → silu → combine
...
Port complete MoE pipeline from upstream xllm/layers/ilu/fused_moe.cpp.
All 6 ixformer::infer functions now exposed via ix_moe_bridge.cpp:
1. topk_softmax — fused routing (was: 3 PyTorch ops)
2. moe_compute_token_index_api — build permutation maps
3. moe_expand_input — gather tokens by expert
4. moe_w16a16_group_gemm — batched expert GEMM (was: Python for-loop)
5. silu_and_mul — fused activation
6. moe_output_reduce_sum — weighted scatter-add
qwen3_5.py dispatch order:
1. Try ix_fused_moe_forward (full C++ pipeline, 7 kernel launches)
2. Try ix_topk_softmax only + PyTorch GEMM
3. Pure PyTorch fallback (torch.softmax + torch.topk + for-loop)
ix_bridge.py exposes both individual ops and fused_moe_forward().
No upstream code copied — only forward-declarations of ixformer C++ API
that the base image SDK already contains.

fix: fail-fast on ix_bridge failure + probe script for real machine
...
1. ix_bridge.py: RuntimeError instead of silent PyTorch fallback
If JIT compile fails, crash immediately with diagnostic message.
0 score with no error log is worse than a visible crash.
2. qwen3_5.py: explicit WARNING log on import failure (not silent)
Shows exact error so we can diagnose from docker log.
3. probe_ixformer_symbols.py: definitive test for real machine
- Finds all ixformer .so files
- nm/objdump for topk_softmax C++ symbol
- Checks Python bindings
- Attempts JIT compile + link (the real test)
- Prints PASS/FAIL with next-step instructions
Run on real machine: python3 probe_ixformer_symbols.py

fix: wire MoE topk via ixformer C++ bridge + disable broken flash_qla GDN
...
Two call chain breaks fixed:
1. MoE routing (2304 calls/token):
BEFORE: torch.softmax + torch.topk (3 Python GPU ops, no ixformer)
AFTER: ix_bridge.py → ix_moe_bridge.cpp → ixformer::infer::topk_softmax()
Source: upstream_ref/xllm/xllm/core/kernels/ilu/fused_moe.cpp line 46
The C++ API exists in base image SDK (ixformer.h declares it),
only the Python binding (ixformer.functions) was missing.
2. GDN prefill (4 layers, 99.98% NaN):
BEFORE: flash_qla SM70 kernel → abs mean=inf → nan_to_num → zeros
AFTER: skip flash_qla, use _pytorch_forward directly
Source: upstream_ref/xllm qwen3_gated_delta_net_base.cpp uses
identical PyTorch chunked logic (no flash_qla).
Sub168 (working build) never deployed flash_qla either.
Files:
- ex_engine/csrc/ix_moe_bridge.cpp: torch C++ extension calling ixformer C++ API
- ex_engine/python/ix_bridge.py: JIT-compile loader with PyTorch fallback
- qwen3_5.py: import ix_bridge for MoE, disable flash_qla for GDN
- patch_ops.sh: deploy ix_bridge .cpp + .py into vllm model dir

refactor(EX): upstream-aligned kernels + FlashQLA GDN backend
...
Major changes based on upstream_ref analysis:
1. factor_moe_topk_softmax.cu v2.0: Rewritten using ds_vllm/TRT-LLM
warp shuffle pattern (from topk_softmax_kernels.cu). Key differences:
- Zero shared memory (all butterfly __shfl_xor_sync)
- VPT=2, THREADS_PER_ROW=32 (1 warp per token row)
- 4 warps per CTA (4 tokens per block)
- Iterative argmax with winner suppression for top-K
- NaN/Inf clamping to 0 (prevents duplicate expert IDs)
2. GDN: FlashQLA backend (PROVEN on real BI-V100):
- Compiles with corex clang/16 --cuda-gpu-arch=ivcore10
- Real test: NaN=False on gdn_forward(B=1, T=64, H=4, K=128)
- Replaces custom factor_gdn_chunk_fwd.cu (archived to .ref)
- patch_model.py now JIT-loads FlashQLA extension at runtime
3. build.sh: Correct corex flags from real compile log:
--cuda-gpu-arch=ivcore10 (NOT sm_70)
-D__ILUVATAR__ -D__ILUVATAR_WORKAROUND__ -D__ILUVATAR_DIAG__
-cl-single-precision-constant -mllvm --bonus-inst-threshold=0
Key insight from xllm/kernels/ilu/ixformer.h:
ixformer::infer::topk_softmax() EXISTS at C++ level but Python
ixformer.functions binding is missing. Our .so factor bypasses
the missing Python binding entirely via dlopen/ctypes.
