[TRTLLM-17146][feat] Add the Muse Spark Open decoder fast paths - #21356
The Muse Spark Open decoder's fast paths, on top of the model from #21042. The code comes from feat/musespark-open, where @brnguyen2 wrote it. #21042 kept only the reference composition; this PR adds the fused kernels the feature branch runs by default. Each one keeps the reference composition as its fallback for the inputs it does not support, and none needs a switch to turn it on.
Triton kernels (musespark_open_kernels.py), each next to a *_supported check that states the inputs it takes:
Post-expert norm and combine. The weight-first RMSNorm of each selected expert row, the routing weights and the top-k sum, in one kernel per token. A row behind an invalid slot (-1, or past the end of the expert output) is never read, so a NaN the MoE kernel left there cannot reach the sum.
Gated residual join.alpha * residual + beta * rmsnorm(gain * branch) over the FP32 residual stream, alone or together with the next branch's Gemma prenorm. It rounds to BF16 where the reference does.
Routing. For up to 128 tokens, sigmoid, bias, top-8 of 256 experts and the renormalized weights are one kernel. Its picks are sorted, with exact ties going to the lowest expert id, so the order in which the finalize sums the experts is fixed. Larger batches keep torch.topk and fuse only the weight renormalization.
Router projection. FP32 weights and accumulation for up to 128 tokens, with the input cast and the metap scale folded in; tensor cores (TF32x3) from 16 tokens.
Attention output norm and gate. The per-head weightless RMSNorm and sigmoid(gate) for up to 128 tokens, including the strided gate half of the fused QKV projection.
GB300 kernels (CuTe DSL):
Cluster boundary (musespark_open_boundary.py). For 1 to 32 tokens of the 8192-wide stream, a residual join and the next prenorm run across a CTA cluster that reduces both variances through distributed shared memory. Each decoder layer hands the next one its normalized attention input. The token count is a launch argument, so the kernel compiles once per cluster size (three), not once per token count.
Fused finalize + all-reduce (musespark_open_finalize_ar.py). For BF16 TP4 with EP4 on one node and 1 to 128 tokens, the expert finalize and the TP all-reduce are one kernel, a one-shot exchange over CUDA IPC. Construction is collective: every rank either builds the workspace or raises the same error, and the model then keeps the unfused finalize and NCCL, with a warning. It runs with PyTorch's dispatch modes popped: the model loader builds models under MetaInitMode, which would otherwise turn the tensors the torch.distributed backend (Ray) stages its exchanges through into meta tensors. It is the first TP collective in the model's constructor, so a rank that fails earlier in the constructor leaves its peers waiting there. Release never frees memory a peer may still map. The model never calls close(): the workspace lives as long as the serving process, so a process that builds the model several times keeps one 8 MiB IPC buffer per build until it exits.
Where they plug in.
The fused finalize + all-reduce runs inside the finalize the MoE registers as its unfinalized_combine_fn. MuseSparkOpenMoE.forward decides per call whether it applies, and then skips its own all-reduce. It applies only when the MoE will not split the batch into chunks.
Up to 128 tokens, the pooler and the pre-expert norm run on the auxiliary stream while the router and the routing run on the current one. The MoE joins them through ConfigurableMoE's input_ready_event.
For the native TRTLLM-Gen NVFP4 experts, the pre-expert norm is fused with the experts' input quantization (FlashInfer rmsnorm_fp4quant, unswizzled scales).
Numerics. The kernels round where the reference composition rounds, so they differ from it only in reduction order, except the fused pre-expert norm and quantization. FlashInfer's kernel takes the gain 1 + w in BF16, where the norm adds the 1 in FP32, and it rounds x * (1 + w) to BF16 before applying the inverse RMS, where the norm rounds its result. Against the norm followed by the experts' quantization, about 1% of the FP4 codes and up to 3% of the block scales differ, each by one step, and the error against the exact norm is the same. The tests bound each difference against the composition.
Not in this PR. The feature branch's opt-in experiments, each behind an environment switch, go to a separate performance effort: the TP8 fabric (MNNVL) finalize, sharded TP8 projections, prefill sequence parallelism, the low-latency QKV layout, the large-batch routing, finalize and norm/gate variants, the BF16x3 router and the FP32-residual pre-QKV norm. The feature branch's routing memo is gone: on main the MoE routes once and hands the finalize its weights.
Test Coverage
New one-GPU tests, added to the pre-merge block of l0_gb300.yml. The six Triton files (router projection, full routing, norm/gate, MoE finalize, boundary fusion, prepare overlap) need only CUDA, so l0_b200.yml lists them too. Each checks a fused path against the reference composition, its fallbacks and CUDA graph replay with changed inputs:
test_musespark_open_router_projection.py
test_musespark_open_full_routing.py
test_musespark_open_norm_gate.py
test_musespark_open_moe_finalize.py
test_musespark_open_pre_expert_quant.py, which also bounds the fused result against the norm followed by the experts' own quantization
test_musespark_open_moe_prepare_overlap.py
test_musespark_open_boundary_fusion.py, which includes the boundary carried across three layers
test_musespark_open_cluster_boundary.py, which needs GB300
test_musespark_open_finalize_local.py: the workspace's input checks, construction under MetaInitMode and release order, without peers
New CPU tests, marked cpu_only:
test_musespark_open_fusion_switches.py: when the model builds the workspace, and the fallback when construction fails.
test_musespark_open_finalize_dispatch.py: the forward picks one finalize and reduces exactly once.
New four-rank tests, which spawn their ranks with MPIPoolExecutor, listed in the post-merge four-GPU block of l0_gb300_multi_gpus.yml:
test_musespark_open_finalize_allreduce.py: parity with the unfused finalize plus NCCL, malformed calls and FP32 accumulation.
test_musespark_open_finalize_lifecycle.py: collective construction failures, close and drop, and the model's fallback.
test_musespark_open_finalize_stress.py: long, skewed and interleaved call sequences.
Changed: test_modeling_musespark_open.py checks the residual join bit for bit against the composition only off CUDA. On CUDA the join is the fused kernel, which test_musespark_open_boundary_fusion.py bounds against the composition.
On GB300, with a CI-built main wheel and this branch's Python:
The one-GPU and CPU files above, plus the existing Muse decoder tests: 343 passed, 7 skipped. The skipped tests are the MoE TP tests that need an external four-rank launch.
The four-rank files: 89 passed.
Four ranks on the torch.distributed backend, as under Ray (each rank's node and GPU given directly instead of by Ray), building the workspace under MetaInitMode as the loader does: it is built on every rank, and the backend's next TP gather works. With construction under the mode, every rank failed with MetaInitException, and that gather then failed on a meta staging buffer.
Logits on a 6-layer truncation of the checkpoint (TP1, text, image and audio prompts): the last-position logits have cosine similarity of at least 0.999 to main's reference paths.
trtllm-serve with the NVFP4 checkpoint at TP4/EP4, with the fused finalize + all-reduce active, and the same requests against main on the same day:
Every hard check passes on both, for text, math, image, video, speech and mixed requests. The weight accounting is complete.
Greedy responses differ from main token by token, as different rounding makes them. The answers do not change.
One soft check, on a pure tone, fails here and passes on main; the feature branch fails it too. The model reasons about whether it can hear the clip at all, so that answer is sensitive to small numeric changes.
Rebased onto main309426d, which moved to FlashInfer 0.7.2 ([None][chore] Update flashinfer-python from 0.6.18 to 0.7.2 #20911). With a CI-built main wheel from the same day, the results above are unchanged: 343 passed and 7 skipped on one GPU, 89 passed on four ranks, and every hard check of the serve smoke passes.
pre-commit passes on the changed files.

Dev Engineer Review
The change adds guarded Triton paths for routing, router projection, attention normalization and gating, expert normalization and combination, and residual joins. Unsupported inputs use reference paths.
The change adds a GB300 cluster-boundary kernel and a TP4 expert-finalize/all-reduce workspace. Verify support checks, collective synchronization, workspace lifecycle, and fallback behavior.
Decoder layers now accept precomputed attention input and an optional next-layer norm. MoE input preparation can overlap routing with pooling and can fuse pre-expert normalization with NVFP4 quantization for eligible inputs.
The pull request description reports parity, fallback, CUDA graph, workspace lifecycle, and multi-rank tests. It reports 340 passed and 7 skipped in the GB300 one-GPU/CPU set, and 89 passed in four-rank tests. These results were not independently verified. Current review finding counts were not supplied.
QA Engineer Review
The added tests cover fused-path parity, support dispatch, fallback behavior, CUDA graph replay, overlap, routing, and finalize-workspace lifecycle. The GB300 one-GPU list includes nine Muse Spark Open tests. The GB300 multi-GPU list includes three four-rank finalize, lifecycle, and stress tests. The B200 list includes the decoder, routing, normalization/gating, finalize, boundary-fusion, and preparation-overlap tests. Coverage verdict: sufficient for the listed fast paths and TP4 tests; execution results were not independently verified.

Muse Spark Open adds fused CUDA and GB300 paths for routing, attention gating, residual joins, MoE input preparation, and expert finalization. The model can pass computed prenorm inputs between layers and select fused TP4 finalize/all-reduce for eligible deployments. Existing reference paths remain for unsupported inputs.
Adds fused routing and routing-weight normalization, attention output normalization and gating, and expert normalization and combination. Tests compare fused results with references and cover fallback conditions.
Fuses supported residual joins with normalization, including a GB300 cluster path. Decoder forward passes a computed prenorm input to the next layer. Tests cover numerical results, graph replay, and unsupported inputs.
Adds fused router projection and eligible pre-expert NVFP4 preparation. For eligible CUDA batches, expert input preparation can run on an auxiliary stream while router logits are computed. Tests cover reference parity, readiness events, and fallback conditions.
TP4 fused finalize and all-reduce tensorrt_llm/_torch/models/modeling_musespark_open.py, tensorrt_llm/_torch/models/musespark_open_finalize_ar.py, tests/unittest/_torch/modeling/test_musespark_open_finalize_*, tests/unittest/_torch/modeling/test_musespark_open_fusion_switches.py, tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_gb300_multi_gpus.yml
Adds an IPC workspace that combines expert normalization and routing weights with TP4 reduction. Model setup and MoE forward select the workspace for supported deployments and avoid a later reduction when finalize already reduced. Tests cover selection, parity, lifecycle, and failure paths.

Fallback tests compare the fallback path with itself.
In test_cluster_boundary_unsupported_shapes_keep_fallback and test_cluster_boundary_unaligned_contiguous_branch_keeps_fallback, actual and expected come from the same call: gate.add_after_rmsnorm_and_norm(...). The rtol=0, atol=0 comparison is always true. The unexpected stub does prove that cluster_boundary is not called. The tests do not check that the fallback output is correct. A wrong output from the Triton or composition path would pass.
Compute expected from the unfused composition. This is the same reference that test_boundary_fusion_preserves_residual_and_prenorm uses. Use the tolerances from that test.
Proposed fix (apply the same change at both sites)
Added files:test_musespark_open_boundary_fusion.py, test_musespark_open_cluster_boundary.py. test_modeling_musespark_open.py is modified; its join test is now CPU-only.
Behaviors covered: BF16 rounding, graph replay with live inputs, shape/alignment/empty-input rejection, side-stream and second-GPU use, and the three-layer prenorm carry.
Gap: the three-layer carry test uses hidden size 256. It does not run the 8192-wide cluster kernel through the model loop.
Test lists: I could not see l0_gb300.yml in the supplied context. Confirm that it lists the GB300-only cluster test file.
Verdict: needs follow-up. This is the fallback-assertion fix and the list check.
Also applies to: 109-111

235-239: Trivial · Performance & Scalability · Heavy lift
Compile per token count causes first-use latency spikes.
_compile_boundary keys the cache on tokens. Each token count from 1 to 32 therefore triggers its own cute.compile, and the has_gain and eps values multiply that number. In the worst case, a serving process pays up to 64 compilations per device lazily on the forward path.
tokens only sets the launch grid (self.m * self.cluster). Only three configurations change the generated code (cluster = 16, 8 or 4). Pass the token count as a runtime Int32 argument. Then key the cache on cluster, has_gain and the eps values.
The CUDA graph path warms up before capture, so it is probably not affected. Eager decode batches that were not warmed still pay the compile cost.

Fused kernels for the decoder's hot ops, each with the reference
composition kept as the fallback for the inputs it does not support:
- musespark_open_kernels: Triton kernels for the post-expert norm and
combine, the gated residual join (alone and with the next prenorm),
the routing weights, the full top-8 routing over 256 experts, the FP32
router projection, and the attention output norm and gate.
- musespark_open_boundary: a CuTe DSL kernel that splits a residual join
and the next prenorm across a CTA cluster (GB300, width 8192, 1 to 32
tokens).
- musespark_open_finalize_ar: the expert finalize fused with a one-shot
all-reduce over CUDA IPC (GB300, BF16 TP4 with EP4 on one node, 1 to
128 tokens). Construction is agreed across the TP group and falls back
to the unfused finalize and NCCL.
- The pre-expert norm fused with the experts' NVFP4 input quantization,
and small batches pool on the auxiliary stream while the router runs.
The four-rank tests spawn their ranks with MPIPoolExecutor; the
single-GPU tests are listed in l0_gb300.

The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
The fused finalize + all-reduce is the part of this PR that can hang or corrupt a TP4 deployment, and the only tests that run it on hardware are not in CI. test_musespark_open_finalize_allreduce.py, test_musespark_open_finalize_lifecycle.py and test_musespark_open_finalize_stress.py are 4-rank MPI tests and appear in no test-db list; l0_gb300_multi_gpus.yml has a system_gpu_count: 4 block that fits them. Please register them there (or say explicitly why they should stay developer-only, per tests/AGENTS.md).
Two smaller coverage points:
The Triton kernels gate on is_cuda plus shape/dtype, so they run on B200 and H100 too, but their parity tests are listed only in l0_gb300.yml. The other musespark tests live in l0_b200.yml; the Triton-only tests (router projection, full routing, norm/gate, moe finalize, boundary fusion, prepare overlap) belong there as well, since a Triton codegen difference on another SM would not be caught today.
Nothing calls FinalizeIpcWorkspace.close(), so every in-process model construction leaves an 8 MiB IPC buffer allocated until exit, as the module docstring describes. Fine for a long-lived server; worth one sentence in the PR description so test harnesses that build many models know.
The description matches the diff. Design notes that helped me review: the fused-path decision in MuseSparkOpenMoE.forward depends only on rank-uniform state (token count without attention DP, a collectively built workspace), and the unswizzled scale layout handed to the TRTLLM-Gen experts is what trtllm_gen/fp4_block_scale.py asserts for.
…heck the cluster kernel runs in its tests
- The tensor-core router kernels take the token count as a run-time
argument instead of a constexpr, so token counts from 16 to 128 no
longer compile one kernel each.
- The cluster boundary's rounding/graph and side-stream tests record the
calls that reach the cluster kernel, so they fail if the model falls
back to the Triton path for their inputs.

…e; list the fast-path tests on B200 and GB300 multi-GPU

the three cluster sizes (with the gain and the two epsilons) compile,
instead of one compilation per token count from 1 to 32.

Make finalize eligibility a TP-group decision before workspace construction.
_finalize_allreduce_supported uses rank-local GPU capability. If one device in a single-node TP4 group does not report (10, 3), that rank skips _build_finalize_allreduce_workspace while the other ranks enter FinalizeIpcWorkspace, whose constructor starts with a TP collective. Model construction can then block until the launcher aborts.
Reduce the local eligibility result across the TP group and call the builder only when every rank is eligible. Apply the same agreement to any rank-local CuTe availability check used for this path.

…; test the fused pre-expert quantization against the unfused path
- The finalize + all-reduce workspace is built with the active dispatch
modes popped. The model loader constructs models under MetaInitMode,
which turned the tensors that the torch.distributed backend stages its
exchanges through into meta tensors, so on that backend the fusion
never turned on.
- Document how the fused pre-expert norm and NVFP4 quantization rounds
differently from the norm followed by the experts' quantization (a
BF16 `1 + w` gain and a BF16 `x * (1 + w)`), and test it against that
path: block scales and FP4 codes within one step of it, at most 2% of
the codes changed, and the same error against the exact norm.

Approving — the comments below are optional touch-ups, not blockers.
All four points from the last round are fixed in the code, not just closed:
The three 4-rank IPC tests are in the system_gpu_count: 4 block of l0_gb300_multi_gpus.yml (lines 74-76). Note that block is stage: post_merge, so the fused finalize + all-reduce runs on hardware after merge, not in pre-merge CI. That matches the block's existing terms; stating it here so nobody assumes pre-merge coverage later.
musespark_open_boundary.py passes the token count as a launch argument and keys _compile_boundary on cluster size, gain and the two epsilons only, so three compilations instead of up to 64.
The first-TP-collective-in-constructor hazard is in the _build_finalize_allreduce_workspace docstring and the PR description.
close()'s docstring states the model never calls it and what that costs per build.
Of the three new commits, the _disable_current_modes wrap in FinalizeIpcWorkspace.__init__ is the one that changes behavior: without it the fusion never turned on under the loader's MetaInitMode on the torch.distributed backend, and the broad (ValueError, RuntimeError) catch in the model hid that as a warning. test_construction_under_meta_init_exchanges_real_tensors covers it directly. The private torch API has precedent in arena.py and mnnvl_memory.py.
I also checked that test_musespark_open_boundary_fusion.py, now listed in l0_b200.yml, only compares against the reference composition and never asserts the SM103 cluster kernel ran, so it will pass on B200.
Non-blocking follow-up: the loader falls back to a second, non-meta construction when anything in __init__ raises MetaInitException. That rebuilds the workspace, so a process on that path runs the collective construction twice and keeps two 8 MiB buffers. It is covered by the documented "every rank must reach the collective" rule and is rank-uniform in practice, but worth a sentence in the PR description since it is the one realistic way the double-build happens in production.

Description
The Muse Spark Open decoder's fast paths, on top of the model from #21042. The code comes from
feat/musespark-open, where @brnguyen2 wrote it. #21042 kept only the reference composition; this PR adds the fused kernels the feature branch runs by default. Each one keeps the reference composition as its fallback for the inputs it does not support, and none needs a switch to turn it on.Triton kernels (
musespark_open_kernels.py), each next to a*_supportedcheck that states the inputs it takes:-1, or past the end of the expert output) is never read, so a NaN the MoE kernel left there cannot reach the sum.alpha * residual + beta * rmsnorm(gain * branch)over the FP32 residual stream, alone or together with the next branch's Gemma prenorm. It rounds to BF16 where the reference does.torch.topkand fuse only the weight renormalization.sigmoid(gate)for up to 128 tokens, including the strided gate half of the fused QKV projection.GB300 kernels (CuTe DSL):
musespark_open_boundary.py). For 1 to 32 tokens of the 8192-wide stream, a residual join and the next prenorm run across a CTA cluster that reduces both variances through distributed shared memory. Each decoder layer hands the next one its normalized attention input. The token count is a launch argument, so the kernel compiles once per cluster size (three), not once per token count.musespark_open_finalize_ar.py). For BF16 TP4 with EP4 on one node and 1 to 128 tokens, the expert finalize and the TP all-reduce are one kernel, a one-shot exchange over CUDA IPC. Construction is collective: every rank either builds the workspace or raises the same error, and the model then keeps the unfused finalize and NCCL, with a warning. It runs with PyTorch's dispatch modes popped: the model loader builds models underMetaInitMode, which would otherwise turn the tensors the torch.distributed backend (Ray) stages its exchanges through into meta tensors. It is the first TP collective in the model's constructor, so a rank that fails earlier in the constructor leaves its peers waiting there. Release never frees memory a peer may still map. The model never callsclose(): the workspace lives as long as the serving process, so a process that builds the model several times keeps one 8 MiB IPC buffer per build until it exits.Where they plug in.

It applies only when the MoE will not split the batch into chunks.ConfigurableMoE'sinput_ready_event.rmsnorm_fp4quant, unswizzled scales).Numerics. The kernels round where the reference composition rounds, so they differ from it only in reduction order, except the fused pre-expert norm and quantization. FlashInfer's kernel takes the gain
1 + win BF16, where the norm adds the 1 in FP32, and it roundsx * (1 + w)to BF16 before applying the inverse RMS, where the norm rounds its result. Against the norm followed by the experts' quantization, about 1% of the FP4 codes and up to 3% of the block scales differ, each by one step, and the error against the exact norm is the same. The tests bound each difference against the composition.Not in this PR. The feature branch's opt-in experiments, each behind an environment switch, go to a separate performance effort: the TP8 fabric (MNNVL) finalize, sharded TP8 projections, prefill sequence parallelism, the low-latency QKV layout, the large-batch routing, finalize and norm/gate variants, the BF16x3 router and the FP32-residual pre-QKV norm.

The added tests cover fused-path parity, support dispatch, fallback behavior, CUDA graph replay, overlap, routing, and finalize-workspace lifecycle. The GB300 one-GPU list includes nine Muse Spark Open tests. The GB300 multi-GPU list includes three four-rank finalize, lifecycle, and stress tests. The B200 list includes the decoder, routing, normalization/gating, finalize, boundary-fusion, and preparation-overlap tests. Coverage verdict: sufficient for the listed fast paths and TP4 tests; execution results were not independently verified.
