feat(EX): corex_gdn + corex_moe — dlopen dispatch chain from comp 168 log analysis
From 2d5232c5 docker log analysis:
07-23 (168's docker): corex_gdn.py + corex_moe.py → full fused kernels
08-07 (our docker): missing both → NaN GDN + PyTorch MoE fallback
corex_gdn.py: GDN fused kernel dispatch
- FlashQLA .so loading (gdn_forward.cu pre-compiled)
- PyTorch chunked delta rule with fp32 accum + clamp (no NaN)
- Decode single-step recurrent with state clamping
corex_moe.py: MoE fused pipeline
- topk_softmax: replaces MISSING ixf_F.vllm_moe_topk_softmax
- Per-expert GEMM via torch.matmul (cublas under the hood)
- ixformer.silu_and_mul for activation when available
DLOPEN_DISPATCH_CHAIN.md: complete .so loading chain map
deploy_corex_modules.sh: wire into VLLM/model_executor/models/

## What We Need to Build
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Module 1: corex_gdn.py
|
||||||
|
**Location**: `$VLLM/model_executor/models/corex_gdn.py`
|
||||||
|
**Purpose**: GDN fused kernel dispatch
|
||||||
|
**Dispatch**:
|
||||||
|
1. FlashQLA .so (gdn_forward.cu compiled on BI-V100) — needs inf fix
|
||||||
|
2. PyTorch chunked delta rule with fp32 accumulation + clamping
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Module 2: corex_moe.py
|
||||||
|
**Location**: `$VLLM/model_executor/models/corex_moe.py`
|
||||||
|
**Purpose**: MoE fused pipeline (routing + expert GEMM + activation)
|
||||||
|
**Dispatch**:
|
||||||
|
1. PyTorch topk_softmax (replaces missing ixf_F.vllm_moe_topk_softmax)
|
||||||
|
2. Per-expert torch.matmul (goes to cublas via libcublas.so)
|
||||||
|
3. ixformer.silu_and_mul for activation (confirmed working)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Integration: patch_ops.sh additions
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Add to patch_ops.sh after line 10 (deploy corex modules):
|
||||||
|
cp /workspace/ex_engine/python/corex_gdn.py $VLLM/model_executor/models/
|
||||||
|
cp /workspace/ex_engine/python/corex_moe.py $VLLM/model_executor/models/
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## ixformer.functions — Confirmed API
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### WORKS (no errors in any log):
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.silu_and_mul(x, out)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.gelu_and_mul(x, out)
|
||||||

||||||

|
||||||
|
ixf_F.copy_blocks(key_caches, value_caches, block_mapping)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.swap_blocks(src, dst, block_mapping)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.advance_step_flashattn(...)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.w8a8(a, b, scale_a, scale_b, bias, ...)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.w8a16(x, qweight, scales, ...)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.static_scaled_int8_quant(output, input, scale)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.dynamic_scaled_int8_quant(output, input, input_scales)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.vllm_gptq_shuffle(q_weight, q_perm)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.quantized_linear(input, qweight, scales, ...)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.quantized_weight_dequant(...)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### BROKEN/MISSING:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.vllm_moe_topk_softmax → AttributeError (doesn't exist)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.vllm_invoke_fused_moe_kernel → present but crashes (wrong BI-V100 config)
|
||||||
|
ixf_F.vllm_moe_align_block_size → present, untested
|
||||||
|
```

corex_gdn.py — GatedDeltaNet fused kernel dispatch for BI-V100
|
||||||
|
|

|
Competitor 168's log shows:
|

corex_gdn.py:56 → Loaded fused CoreX GDN decode operator from /usr/local/corex/lib64/libcorex_gdn.so

This module provides the same interface. Dispatch order:

1. FlashQLA SM70 .so (gdn_forward.cu compiled on BI-V100)
|

2. PyTorch chunked delta rule fallback

The FlashQLA kernel compiles and runs on BI-V100 (confirmed):

BUT: abs_mean = inf → need fp32 accumulation fix
|

|
Design pattern from CCCL: agent_reduce ConsumeTile → fused prefill tile,

device_reduce policy_selector → decode/prefill dispatch.
