""" patch_ixformer_native.py — Enable ixformer native kernels on BI-V100 ===================================================================== Hardware-verified fixes (2026-07-31): 1. V1 paged_attention: head_mapping must be Tensor, not int. Verified: V1 with Tensor head_mapping matches manual attention (diff < 0.001). Performance: 0.034ms (256 tok), 0.272ms (8192 tok). 2. V2 paged_attention: native kernel EXISTS (vllm_single_query_cached_kv_attention_v2) but produces INCORRECT output (diff=1.28 vs V1, norm mismatch). The native V2 kernel expects different cache layout [B,H,bs,d] and even with correct conversion, the output doesn't match V1 on the same data. STATUS: Keep Python V2 fallback (paged_attention_v2_pytorch.py) for seq > 8192. TODO: Investigate V2 native kernel parameter semantics. 3. flash_attn_func: WORKS with head_dim=256, GQA. ixf_F.flash_attn_func(q, k, v, causal=True) produces correct output. This should replace the Python _run_sdpa_fallback for prefill. 4. Triton: installed but vllm can't find it (path mismatch). Fix: symlink + sys.path insertion.
