Sparse-checkout from NVIDIA/cccl main branch to complete cccl_upstream: Added: - python/cuda_cccl/ (226 files) — Python bindings for device-level algorithms Critical for muh toolchain: cuda.compute.reduce_into, scan, radix_sort, etc. Includes 204 .py files with full test coverage for all 27 algorithms - ci/ (163 files) — Build/test infrastructure build_cub.sh, test_cub.sh, build_and_test_targets.sh, matrix.yaml Directly maps to our [INFRA-CI] and [INFRA-BUILD] items - .agent/skills/ (7 files) — NVIDIA's own agent skills for CCCL cccl-style/SKILL.md, cccl-test/SKILL.md, sass-diff/SKILL.md - docs/ (491 files) — Official CCCL documentation CI references, CMake guides, Python compute docs, libcudacxx PTX docs - test/ (12 files) — Top-level integration tests (cuda_smoke, stdpar) - Root configs: .clang-format, .clang-tidy, CONTRIBUTING.md, pyproject.toml - CLAUDE.md symlink → AGENTS.md (NVIDIA's standard) cccl_upstream now mirrors full NVIDIA/cccl structure: Before: 42M (cub + thrust + libcudacxx + cudax + c + examples + benchmarks) After: 53M (+python +ci +docs +.agent +test +configs) This completes the CCCL base needed for: - [muh-bench] items: ci/util/build_and_test_targets.sh for targeted builds - [CCCL-verify] items: python/cuda_cccl/tests/ as reference implementations - [CCCL-test] items: ci/test_cub.sh, ci/test_thrust.sh - Agent workflow: .agent/skills/ for consistent style and test patterns

SASS Diffs
Use this when asked to check for SASS changes between commits, branches or a local changeset.
Goal
Detect relevant changes in generated CUDA machine code (i.e. SASS) while filtering noise from addresses, symbols, metadata, etc. Any non-trivial change must be detected.
Inputs to establish
- Compilation target under test
- The CUDA SM architectures to compile for. Try to detect this from the code and offer the user a list of suggestions. The user must confirm or provide this list.
- Baseline source (e.g. the previous commit/branch or the current commit without the changes in the working copy).
- Comparison source (e.g. the current commit/branch or the current commit with the changes in the working copy).
- Whether a SASS (default) or PTX diff is requested.
Disassembly listing generation
- Compile both, the baseline and comparison source, with the same compiler flags and options.
When not specified otherwise, lookup the options from
compile_commands.jsonor the current build system (i.e. CMake files). Make sure the CUDA SM architectures (CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES) are set to the user-provided or approved list. - Dump the disassembly from the binaries produced in the previous set using
cuobjdump -sassorcuobjdump -ptx.
Comparison rules (what matters)
Ignore as trivial:
- Register renaming with identical instruction sequence and operands.
- Pure label renumbering or reordering of identical basic blocks.
- Formatting-only differences or reordered symbol tables.
- Changes to symbol names (global function names)
Reporting
- If any non-trivial change was detected, report the top 5 regions where a non-trivial change was detected, including the name of the kernel they appeared in.
- Provide a short summary of the diff type, including opcode changes, memory access size/cache policy changes, control-flow changes, register-count changes, spills/local memory, shared memory, and occupancy-relevant resource deltas.
- Explicitly state if only noise was detected.
- If you are not sure if the differences are impactful, show it and ask the user for guidance.
- Keep the disassembly dumps available and tell the user where they can find them.
