  • Promote decode_csa to the full CSA layer on one TP rank: HC
    pre-processing, the step and compressed rope tables, RMSNorm, QKV
    projection with rope, original-KV writeback, the ratio-4 compressor,
    the indexer, the distributed output half, and HC post-processing.
  • Split the previous distributed output body out as the inline
    decode_csa_output, kept reachable on its own through the new
    decode_csa_output_test / l3_decode_csa_output_test diagnostic
    entries, and keep decode_csa_tp1 as the single-card reference.
  • Tile the indexer's weights_proj_reduce over row blocks with pl.spmd
    instead of reducing all T_PAD rows in one CORE_GROUP scope, so the
    reduction fits Vec memory at TP1 as well as TP2 and TP4.
  • Mark compress_state, inner_compress_state, kv_cache, cmp_kv,
    idx_kv_cache and idx_kv_scale as in-out parameters with bound
    dynamic block axes, and declare all six validated outputs.
  • Assign compressor state and cache block tables so no two active rows
    share a physical slot, per rank group for the cache pools and per
    request for the two state pools.
  • Add build_distributed_tensor_specs, which splits one global fixture
    across the token ranks and shards the O projection weights, and
    golden_decode_csa, which runs the TP1 reference per rank.
  • Compute the TP1 golden's attention output through
    golden_decode_o_proj_tp1 instead of folding the projection into
    golden_sparse_attn.
  • Add an --entry full|output|tp1 selector with per-entry device counts
    and defaults, and share one build_full_compare for the six pool
    comparators across the full and tp1 entries.

The pool comparators check only allocator-mapped rows, so a padded or
unmapped slot cannot mask a real write. On a simulator platform x_out
switches to error_distribution(always_pass=False), because CSA
sparse-attention numerics there still differ from hardware; a device
run keeps the strict ratio_reldiff check on both entries.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CSA decoder now has separate output-only, full tensor-parallel, and TP1 paths. Fixtures model collision-free cache mappings and mutable state. Distributed golden comparisons and entry-specific CLI dispatch validate each execution mode.

Changes

CSA decoder paths

Layer / File(s) Summary
Decoder execution paths
models/deepseek_v4_flash_dspark/decode_csa.py, models/deepseek_v4_flash_dspark/decode_indexer.py
The decoder separates output-only, full-layer, and TP1 execution. The full path performs preprocessing, cache updates, compression, indexing, distributed attention, sharded O projection, and postprocessing. Indexer reductions now run per row block.
Mapped fixtures and mutable outputs
models/deepseek_v4_flash_dspark/decode_csa.py
Fixture builders validate grouped mappings and active capacity. Cache and compressor-state tables avoid physical-row collisions. Mutable caches and states are modeled as outputs. Distributed tensor specifications support TP-stacked inputs and outputs.
Golden execution and CLI dispatch
models/deepseek_v4_flash_dspark/decode_csa.py
Golden references cover output, TP1, and distributed full-layer execution. The CLI validates entry-specific devices and dispatches matching specifications, compilers, goldens, and comparisons.

Poem

A rabbit checks the cache with care,
Maps each block to empty air.
Three paths hop through RoPE light,
Goldens guide the tensors right.
Distributed ears align—
The CSA burrow runs in time.
