fp-cuda: Hopper wgmma.b1 device-resident F₂ GEMM backend - #273
Conversation
Prototype CUDA kernel and the Phase 2 wgmma.b1 core: both operands pre-arranged on the host as K-major tiles, one m64n128k256 binary MMA. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01B1XztNMycTtSC9SQtpNYjR
…zation Steps (a)-(d): hoist the A TMA load out of the column-group loop, double-buffer A in the K pipeline, load B via TMA, and split into producer/consumer warpgroups. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01B1XztNMycTtSC9SQtpNYjR
Both b1 operands are K-major; move them to CU_TENSOR_MAP_SWIZZLE_128B so wgmma operand reads avoid bank conflicts. The TMA applies the swizzle on load, so the host now emits plain row-major K-major tiles (the hand-rolled cm() interleave is gone) and the wgmma matrix descriptors carry the matching layout bits (layout=1, LBO=16B, SBO=1024B), derived from CUTLASS make_gmma_desc<Major::K> / LayoutType::B128. The SMEM K-tile grows to 1024 bits (one full 128B K-major swizzle atom = 4 k256 sub-chunks) and moves to dynamic shared memory (~82KB, opt-in via CU_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE_MAX_DYNAMIC_SHARED_SIZE_BYTES). Per-stage wgmmas now run behind a single commit_group/wait_group and accumulate popcounts in-hardware (scale-D=1) into one resident accumulator per column group, replacing the previous one-wgmma-per-commit/wait serialization. Compile-verified only (nvcc + rustc); not yet validated on H100. Validate with a 64x256x64 identity product first, then matmul_b1_demo, then the bench.

Replace the four m64n64k256 wgmmas per k-step (one per output limb) with a single m64n256k256 covering all NG=4 limbs at once. Binary wgmma is k256-only, so N is the throughput lever; n256 is the max. Same accumulator register count (128 s32/thread) and same SMEM as the 4x n64 version, but 1/4 the wgmma instructions, B descriptors, and fence/commit churn. B is now arranged as one contiguous 256-column tile per CTA (host transpose_b packs 4 limbs side by side; the B TMA box is 256 rows tall) instead of four separate 64-column tiles, and is zero-padded to whole 256-column groups. A and the K tiling are unchanged. The output bit-pack splits the single acc[128] into the 4 output limbs: the m64n256 fragment is the m64n64 layout tiled along N, so register group gi in 0..32 maps to columns [gi*8, gi*8+8). Compile-verified (PTX emits m64n256k256); fragment->limb bit-pack still needs the 64x256x64 identity check on H100. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The producer warpgroup needs few registers; the consumer holds the 128-reg m64n256 accumulator. Issue setmaxnreg.dec(40) in the producer and setmaxnreg.inc(216) in the consumer so the consumer claims the producer's surplus. 128*(40+216)=32768 regs/CTA, leaving room for 2 CTAs/SM. Both are warpgroup-aligned and executed by all 128 threads of their warpgroup (the wg branch splits at warpgroup granularity). Compile-verified; PTX emits the dec/inc. Also fixes a stale m64n64k256 mention in the lib doc comment. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Bump the producer-consumer pipeline depth from 2 to 3 so the producer can run
two K-chunks ahead, hiding more TMA latency. SMEM grows to ~122 KB/CTA (one
CTA/SM vs two at STAGES=2); the host smem_bytes/cuFuncSetAttribute track it
automatically. STAGES is the latency-vs-occupancy knob to sweep on hardware.
Phase-array inits made depth-agnostic ({0}).

Replace the per-thread global stores with a single cp.async.bulk.tensor.2d.global.shared::cta per CTA. sC is now packed row-major ([row][limb]) so the 64×NG tile is contiguous for the store; thread 0 issues it after a __syncthreads + fence.proxy.async (making the atomicXor writes visible to the async proxy), then cp.async.bulk.commit_group/wait_group, then a final __syncthreads keeps sC alive until the store lands. The kernel now takes a C tensor map instead of a raw pointer (nlim/C* params dropped). C is padded on the host to whole NG-limb column groups (n_padded_lim = n_groups*NG) so every stored tile is complete; padded columns carry zeros from the zero-padded B and are trimmed on readback. README roadmap updated to reflect Phases 4-7. Compile-verified (PTX emits the bulk store + fence.proxy.async); store path and n256 bit-pack still need the H100 identity check.

Replace the cuda-oxide `cuda-core` dependency with `cudarc`. cuda-core pulled in nightly via an incidental `#![feature(f16)]` (a DeviceCopy impl for the unstable f16 primitive we never use); cudarc is stable Rust, mainstream/maintained, and dynamically loads the driver at runtime — so the crate builds with no CUDA present and the whole crate (lib + examples + benches) now compiles AND links locally without libcuda (previously examples failed at link with -lcuda). Host glue rewritten against cudarc: CudaContext/load_module(Ptx)/load_function, clone_htod/alloc_zeros/clone_dtoh, device_ptr for the TMA descriptor addresses, CudaFunction::set_attribute for the >48 KB dynamic-SMEM opt-in, and the typed launch builder. The three CUtensorMaps are passed by value as grid-constant args via a #[repr(transparent)] TmaArg: DeviceRepr wrapper. cuTensorMapEncodeTiled is called through cudarc::driver::sys. Kernel (.cu/PTX) and build.rs are unchanged. cudarc features: driver + nvrtc (for Ptx) + cuda-12080 + dynamic-loading; the version only selects pre-generated bindings, the real driver (12.8+/13.x) is resolved at runtime. Also delete examples/bench_breakdown.rs: it was stale (called the pre-TMA 7-pointer kernel signature with the old cm() transpose) and the only remaining cuda-core user; bench_kernel_only supersedes it. Compile + link verified locally (lib, examples, benches). Stable-toolchain build to be confirmed on the server (dev box only has Nix nightly).

The >16384 throughput cliff is L2-residency bound on B: with the old (grid_x=n_groups, grid_y=m_tiles) launch (N fastest), every B column-panel is re-touched only once per full sweep of B, so its reuse distance is the whole matrix and it spills from L2 once K*N/8 > ~50 MB, getting re-streamed from HBM per M-tile. Convert to a persistent 1-D grid of ~SM-count CTAs that sweep all output tiles in a grouped-along-M order (bi fastest within a GROUP_M-row band, bj slowest). This shortens each B-panel's reuse distance to <= GROUP_M, cutting B's HBM re-reads by a factor of GROUP_M while A still streams once. Kernel: take n_groups as an arg (no longer gridDim.x), add GROUP_M=8, wrap the per-tile body in a persistent `for (tile = blockIdx.x; ...)` loop, and re-init the mbarriers per tile (fresh phase-0 bookkeeping) so barrier parity isn't carried across iterations. setmaxnreg stays a one-time per-warpgroup action before the loop. Per-tile compute is byte-identical to Phase 7. Host: query CU_DEVICE_ATTRIBUTE_MULTIPROCESSOR_COUNT, launch (num_ctas = min(SMs, total_tiles), 1, 1), and pass n_groups. TMA descriptors, padding, and readback are unchanged. GROUP_M is a tuning knob (8/16/32) to sweep on the H100. Code-only on the dev box; validate on the server. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase 8 shortened each B-panel's reuse distance via rasterization; this shares the remaining HBM read of a B-panel across CTAs. CLUSTER (=2) CTAs along M form a thread-block cluster: each computes a different M-tile (its own n256 accumulator) but receives the same B-panel via one multicast HBM read (cp.async.bulk.tensor.2d...multicast::cluster), cutting B's HBM traffic by a further factor of CLUSTER on top of Phase 8's GROUP_M. (A second per-CTA accumulator can't fit the 256-reg budget, so cross-M B-reuse must be cross-CTA, i.e. clusters — not single-CTA SMEM reuse.) Kernel: __cluster_dims__(CLUSTER,1,1); the schedule walks M-super-rows of CLUSTER tiles (bi = sbi*CLUSTER + rank, shared bj). A is loaded per-CTA; B is multicast by rank 0 with an all-ranks mask into every member's sB and counted against every member's full barrier. The empty barrier is cluster-wide (init count CLUSTER; each consumer arrives on every member via mapa). Pipeline barriers are initialized once and flow continuously across tiles (single qidx/p) rather than re-init per tile, which would race the cross-CTA arrivals. One barrier.cluster after init. Mirrors pranjalssh/fast.cu matmul_9. Host: pad m_tiles to a multiple of CLUSTER (every rank gets a valid M-tile), round the persistent grid down to a whole number of clusters. CLUSTER must match the kernel constant (like STAGES). GROUP_M and CLUSTER are tuning knobs to sweep on the H100. Multicast/cluster ordering is the highest-risk, hardware-unverifiable part — see HANDOFF.md. Code-only on the dev box; validate on the server. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Diagnosis on H200: the kernel was L2-refill-bandwidth bound, not compute bound. Microbenchmarks put the single-warpgroup wgmma.b1 ceiling at ~12,468 TOPS while sustained L2->SMEM refill tops out at ~8 TB/s (full tensor rate needs ~14.6). Each CTA computed a 64x256 tile, so it reloaded 8KB A + 32KB B per k-chunk -- B was 80% of the traffic because the tile was 4x wider than tall, and the tensor core starved waiting for it. Fix: register-block the output. Each CTA now computes a TM x NB block as MSTRIPS m64n128 wgmma strips (wgmma_n128, acc[MSTRIPS][64]) that all reuse one loaded B sub-tile, so a single L2->SMEM read of B feeds every strip. Winning config MSTRIPS=3 (192x128 block), NB=128, STAGES=4, GROUP_M=16, CLUSTER=2 cuts refill bytes/MAC by 33%. Also validates the previously-unvalidated Phase 8-9 batch on hardware (bit-exact) and lands the STAGES 3->4 / GROUP_M 8->16 tuning. Kernel-only, bit-exact (32768 cube): 8,585 -> 9,344 TOPS (+8.9%); 16384 7,636 -> 8,301; now ~75% of the tensor-core ceiling. Constants MSTRIPS in the kernel and TILE_M(=64*MSTRIPS)/NG in src/lib.rs must match. NB must be a multiple of 128 (NG even) or the C-store TMA box breaks 16B alignment; MSTRIPS=4 would exceed the 255-reg/thread cap. Adds examples/tune.rs, a fast no-CPU-check sweep harness.

The per-tile epilogue drained its C store inline (cp.async.bulk.wait_group 0 between two __syncthreads), stalling the whole CTA for the store latency every output tile -- a bubble that grows as a fraction of tile time at smaller K. Double-buffer sC and defer the wait: each tile packs into sC[titer&1], issues its store, then does cp.async.bulk.wait_group.read 1, which blocks only until every store but the newest has finished *reading* its SMEM source. So tile T's store drains during tile T+1's compute, and the buffer freed (two tiles back) is safe to reuse. A final wait_group 0 after the persistent loop drains the last store before the CTA exits. Kernel-only, bit-exact: 32768 9,344 -> 9,426; 16384 8,301 -> 8,420; 8192 6,425 -> 6,591; 4096 3,835 -> 3,948 (smaller K gains more, as the epilogue is a larger share of tile time there). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
wgmma.fence.sync.aligned is a warpgroup-wide (128-thread) sync; the consumer was issuing two per k-chunk (one before the wgmma group, one after the wait), i.e. 64 warpgroup syncs per output tile. But the fence is only needed to order non-wgmma writes to the accumulators before a wgmma reads them -- in steady state the accumulators are touched only by wgmma, so one fence before the whole K-loop (ordering the accumulator zeroing) suffices, matching CUTLASS's warpgroup_arrive-once pattern. The per-chunk wgmma.wait_group 0 still makes results readable for the epilogue. Kernel-only, bit-exact: 32768 9,426 -> 9,605; 16384 8,420 -> 8,618; 8192 6,591 -> 6,744.

Launch (occupancy × SM-count) CTAs instead of hard-coding SM-count, so the persistent grid exactly fills the machine for whatever the resource footprint allows. No change at the shipping config (occ=1/SM), but it's the correct, self-adapting launch and it drove the 2-CTA/SM experiment. That experiment is a documented dead end (H200, 2026-07-07): 2 CTAs/SM needs the compiled register count <=128/thread (2*256*128 = the 64K reg file), but the resident accumulator that gives the kernel its arithmetic intensity is 192 regs/thread at MSTRIPS=3. The only way to reach occ=2 is MSTRIPS=1 (64-reg acc), which collapses AI and drops 16384 from ~8,600 to ~5,500 TOPS. High AI (big accumulator) and high occupancy compete for the same register file and AI wins -- so 1 CTA/SM with the largest accumulator under the 255-reg cap is optimal. This confirms on-device that the ~10-13k TOPS bandwidth wall cannot be moved by raising occupancy. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Wire the Hopper GPU backend into `fp` behind an optional `gpu` feature and keep the workspace CI green: `--workspace` builds `fp-cuda`, whose build.rs emits a stub PTX when nvcc is absent (every ubuntu-latest runner) instead of panicking. fp-cuda's library API is fp-agnostic (raw limbs), breaking the dependency cycle so `fp` can dispatch large p=2 products to the device.

The matmul dispatch serialized every submission behind one Mutex<GpuContext> on the context's single default stream, so concurrent `&Matrix * &Matrix` from rayon workers ran one at a time. Add GpuContext::stream() (a lazily-created per-thread CudaStream) and drop the mutex: GpuContext is Send+Sync (its cudarc handles are), matmul_b1_inner allocates its device buffers per call and launches non-cooperatively, so concurrent matmuls run on independent streams — overlapping transfers with compute — with no shared state to guard. context() now shares a &'static GpuContext; stream() falls back to the context default stream if creation fails, so a poisoned context degrades to the CPU path instead of panicking. This is the foundation the row-reduce concurrency (blas3 PR, stacked on this one) builds on: it inherits stream() + the lock-free context() and only swaps its own reduce methods onto per-thread streams. Validated: gpu_matmul_concurrent (new) runs 16 threads x 6 concurrent GPU matmuls, each bit-identical to the CPU kernel; existing dispatch test unchanged.

GpuContext::stream() cached the per-thread stream in a thread-keyed slot with no context key, so a thread that built two contexts (e.g. one per device) would reuse the first context's stream for the second — wrong context/device. Move the cache into the GpuContext itself (Mutex<HashMap<ThreadId, Arc<CudaStream>>>): streams are now owned by and scoped to the context. The mutex guards only the map lookup, never a GPU submission, so it does not serialize device work (unlike the whole-op lock this stream design replaced). Adds stream_is_scoped_per_context: two GpuContexts on one thread get distinct streams; each context reuses its own.

… rustfmt CI was red on three counts, all in the fp-cuda test/doc surface (no code-path changes): - test: `stream_is_scoped_per_context` aborted the run on GPU-less CI. `GpuContext::new` reaches the CUDA driver via cudarc, which *panics* (not `Err`) when no driver library is present. Add a cached `gpu_available()` probe (silences the panic hook + catches the unwind, once per test binary); every device-touching test gates on it and skips cleanly when there is no device, so the GPU suite is disabled rather than failing off-device. - docs: public doc on `stream()` linked the private `GpuContext::streams` field (`-D warnings` + private-intra-doc-links). Reword to a plain code span. - lint: `cargo fmt --all --check` diffs (long assert!/closure reflows from the prior commit). Apply rustfmt.

Verbose comments are useful scaffolding while writing a kernel; this is the trim pass, against the style now written down in ext/CLAUDE.md. Module docs drop to one line, with the explanation moved onto the item it describes. Restatements of the code, of what the caller does with a return value, and of preconditions the caller already checks are gone. Every function in matmul_b1.cu is documented, including the one-line PTX wrappers, and every unsafe block in src/lib.rs carries a SAFETY comment naming its obligations. Development history leaves the code and the README: the "Phase N" numbering meant something only against a commit sequence a reader does not have. What was tried, what it gained, and why the alternatives were rejected now lives in EXPERIMENTS.md, and the README describes the crate as it is -- including why a binary tensor-core kernel is the right tool here, and why cuBLAS (whose `cudaDataType` has no 1-bit member) and CUTLASS (whose b1 support stops at SM80's warp-level mma) cannot supply one. Comments refer to constants by name rather than by value, which turned up four stale claims: a tile described as 64x128 bytes that is TILE_M x 128, two "256" figures that are NB = 128, and a wgmma shape advertised as m64n64k256 and m64n256k256 where the kernel emits m64n128k256 -- checked against the PTX. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01EFfXYt9zvAvHWhNHnULe6r
Seven constants had to be kept in sync by hand between the kernel and the host, guarded only by `// must match the kernel` comments. They now live once, in cuda_kernels/params.h: the kernel includes that header, and build.rs parses it to generate the Rust mirror, so a tile size cannot drift between the two. A regex cannot evaluate the C preprocessor, so the parse is checked rather than trusted: build.rs hands every value it read back to nvcc as -DFP_CUDA_VERIFY_<NAME>, and params.h static_asserts each one against the macro it came from. A misread value fails the assert; a knob the parser skipped leaves its verify macro undefined and fails to compile. Either way the build stops with the constant named, instead of shipping a host that disagrees with the kernel. The block is inert without -DFP_CUDA_VERIFY, so the kernel still compiles standalone with a plain nvcc invocation. Verified by fault injection: feeding a wrong MSTRIPS fails the static_assert, dropping GROUP_M fails on the undefined macro, and the correct values produce byte-identical PTX. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01EFfXYt9zvAvHWhNHnULe6r
Every fallible function returned Result<_, Box<dyn std::error::Error>>. anyhow is already a dependency of the workspace root and of `algebra`, so use it here too: the signatures get shorter and the errors gain context support. No error site needed a manual conversion -- anyhow::Error converts from any std::error::Error + Send + Sync, which covers the cudarc driver errors and the FromUtf8Error from the PTX image. `fp`'s dispatch discards these with .ok()? and is unaffected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01EFfXYt9zvAvHWhNHnULe6r
Phase 9 (264b411) added `__cluster_dims__(CLUSTER,1,1)`, TMA multicast of B and a cluster-wide empty barrier reached via `mapa`. That makes a cluster's CTAs co-resident by construction -- a hard placement constraint, so the launch does not queue for SMs the way an ordinary grid does; when another runtime holds them it fails outright with CUDA_ERROR_LAUNCH_FAILED. That is the fault compute- sanitizer could never attribute (0 invalid accesses across a whole run: it was never a memory bug). The multicast is not worth that. bench_kernel_only on an idle H200, cluster-free vs cluster, binary TOPS, correct=true idempotent=true throughout: 4096^3 4091 vs 4071 8192^3 6687 vs 6778 16384^3 8501 vs 8632 32768^3 9608 vs 9664 Within 1.5% everywhere, because GROUP_M rasterization already keeps B resident in L2, so the second-order saving multicast adds does not show up at these shapes. Every cluster construct has an exact single-CTA counterpart, so what remains is identical arithmetic on an identical tile schedule: rank is 0, cluster_sync drops (the preceding __syncthreads already orders it), arrive_cluster becomes a local arrive, multicast becomes a plain TMA load, and the empty barrier counts 1. There is one kernel, `matmul_b1_kernel`, with no cluster attribute and no opt-in flag -- the CTAs are simply independent, so the grid size is a throughput parameter only and the host no longer rounds it, or M's padding, to a whole cluster. CLUSTER leaves params.h, so build.rs stops mirroring it into the generated Rust `params` module and its FP_CUDA_VERIFY cross-check goes with it; the parser is generic, so no build.rs change was needed. STAGES stays 4, but its reason is now only the measured absence of a large-N speedup at 5 -- the distributed-SMEM reservation that also made 5 unstable was cluster-only. EXPERIMENTS.md records the removal and re-words the STAGES entry accordingly. Phase 8 (60b05cd) is NOT implicated: its persistent loop strides (`tile += gridDim.x`) and was already work-capped, so grouped rasterization composes at any grid size. Only the cluster layer goes. Verified on an H200 (CUDA 12.4 toolkit): matmul_b1_demo bit-exact against the CPU path for 64..8192, and bench_kernel_only 4104 / 6967 / 8454 / 9573 binary TOPS at 4096^3..32768^3, correct=true idempotent=true. The generated PTX has exactly one entry point and no cluster attribute, `mapa` or multicast. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01SmhK9czwJj2dZeemDhXtBf
The removal left three comments explaining the design that is gone rather than the one that is there, which is what EXPERIMENTS.md is for. The kernel header drops to a statement that the CTAs are independent plus a pointer; `arrive_local` keeps the invariant that makes a local arrive sufficient and loses the co-residency aside; the persistent-grid comment in the host keeps why the grid size is free and loses the contrast with placement. `tma_2d` gains a note that `.shared::cluster` is the PTX name of the state space the bulk-copy family addresses, not a cluster requirement -- it is the one thing in the file that still reads like a cluster dependency after the removal. The README throughput table was measured with clusters on 2026-07-07, so it no longer described the shipped kernel. Replaced with the cluster-free figures from the removal commit (4104 / 6967 / 8454 / 9573 binary TOPS); the ms/launch column is those TOPS converted, not a separate measurement.

In `@ext/crates/fp-cuda/examples/common/mod.rs`:
- Around line 11-24: Add a non-aligned (65, 65, 65) regression case to
matmul_b1_demo, ensuring the CPU/GPU path covers host zero-padding of extra K
and M rows, output limb-group padding, and trimming of padded output.
In `@ext/crates/fp-cuda/README.md`:
- Line 195: Remove the stale TODO bullet about extending the parent Nix flake to
provide nvcc, since the existing devShells.gpu configuration already supplies
CUDA support.
In `@ext/crates/fp-cuda/src/lib.rs`:
- Around line 391-425: Optimize transpose_b by replacing the per-bit gather in
its inner jj/kl/bit loops with a blocked 64×64 bit-matrix transpose using the
standard recursive delta-swap approach, while preserving the existing output
layout and zero-padding behavior. Parallelize the independent kk/cg
tile-processing loops so each (kk, cg) pair writes only its disjoint slice of
out, using the crate’s established parallelism facility.

The stub PTX declared `.version 7.8` alongside `.target sm_90a`, but sm_90a was
introduced in PTX ISA 8.0, so the pair was internally inconsistent; nvcc 12.9
emits `.version 8.8` for that target. Raised to 8.0, the lowest version that
admits sm_90a, so the stub stays loadable by older drivers.
Note this was not observed to break anything: ptxas 12.9 assembles the stub for
sm_90a under either version, so the documented failure path -- module loads, then
`load_function("matmul_b1_kernel")` fails and the caller degrades to CPU -- held
in practice.
Also: the benchmark's manual throughput line is labelled binary TOPS, not TFLOPS,
which is what the code actually reports; and the module docs of the two profiling
examples get the usual one-line summary before their body.

fence.proxy.async.shared::cta orders only the executing thread's prior generic-proxy writes. With the fence after __syncthreads() only t == 0 ran it, leaving the other consumers' atomicXor packing unfenced when the TMA store read sC. Verified on an H200: output stays bit-exact across matmul_b1_demo and the kernel-only bench. The reorder costs ~0.96% at 4096 and ~0.73% at 8192, and is at noise level at 16384/32768 where the kernel operates. Also drops the stale Nix TODO from the README (flake.nix now has devShells.gpu) and documents the opt-in shell in Building.

Every case in the sweep had all three dimensions a multiple of 64, so the ragged tail and the partially-occupied last limb of a row went untested. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01EFfXYt9zvAvHWhNHnULe6r
The column read "TOPS" while the values come from matmul_b1_timed, which excludes host setup and H2D/D2H — not comparable with bench_kernel.rs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01EFfXYt9zvAvHWhNHnULe6r
Adds
fp-cuda, a CUDA backend for F₂ (GF(2)) matrix multiplication on Hopper(H200/H100), and wires it into
fpbehind an optionalgpufeature so largep = 2matrix products dispatch to binary tensor cores.What's here
wgmma.b1(binary AND+popcount tensor-core) GEMM kernel, both operandspre-arranged on the host as K-major tiles and loaded via TMA with 128B
swizzle into the layout the swizzled wgmma descriptors expect.
(TMA + double-buffering + producer/consumer warpgroup specialization),
128B swizzle,
m64n256k256, per-warpgroup register reallocation, deeperK-pipeline, TMA bulk output store, persistent kernel + grouped tile
rasterization, thread-block clusters + TMA multicast of B, output-tile
register-blocking, store/compute overlap, and fence hoisting.
cudarc(stable Rust).fpintegration (gpufeature):fp-cuda's library API is fp-agnostic(raw limbs), breaking the dependency cycle;
fpdispatches large p=2products to the device. The
fp-cudabuild.rsemits a stub PTX when nvccis absent, so
--workspaceCI stays green on runners without a GPU.Testing
cargo test -p fp --features gpu --test cuda_dispatch—gpu_dispatch_matches_cpupasses on an H200 (bit-exact vs the CPU path).
cargo build -p fp(default, no GPU) and--features gpuboth compile.Base for the follow-up device-resident row-reduction PR, which rebases on top
of this.
