- Geometry (

out_cache_loc.shape[0], and the kernel loadsk/vrowtwith no mask. If a source has fewer rows thanout_cache_lochas entries, the kernel reads out of bounds.Both hold for the current caller.

…ernel Port of NVIDIA#16755 from feat/m3_with_msa to main. Each MSA layer wrote its new-token main K, main V and (sparse layers) index-K through three separate aten advanced-indexing writes, each with its own division / remainder / cast preprocessing: ~12 tiny launches per sparse layer, ~720 per decode step at 60 layers, all captured into the decode CUDA graphs. Replace them with one Triton launch per layer that derives (page, within-page) from out_cache_loc in-register and writes K, V and index-K together before the indexer's proxy pass. Layouts the kernel cannot take fall back to the legacy per-cache writes. Rebased onto the MsaPrefillFmha / MsaDecodeFmha split (NVIDIA#18611): the kernel lives in minimax_m3/kernels alongside the other cache writes, and the per-phase write_msa_phase_kv is what now skips a layer the fused scatter already wrote. run_indexer keeps main's strict indexer_kv_dtype validation and gates the bf16 index-K write on idx_k_prewritten. Signed-off-by: Zheyu Fu <zheyuf@nvidia.com>
Review follow-up on the fused per-layer KV-cache write. The fused scatter left a per-step marker (_msa_prewritten_layer) on the attention metadata, set by a metadata method and consumed by the FMHA's K/V write. That is control flow, not a description of the step: the metadata is shared read-only by every layer, and "the model layer writes K/V for MSA layers" holds for every layer and every step, so it should not be per-step state at all. Drop the marker and the metadata method. The write moves to MiniMaxM3MsaSparseAttention.write_layer_caches, next to run_indexer, which the model layer already calls; metadata only supplies the write slots and the cache manager. After writing, the model layer hands forward() k=v=None, which is already the phase libraries' contract for "K/V are resident" (write_msa_phase_kv writes nothing without live K/V), so no cross-module state is needed to suppress the second write. Tests: cover the fp8 source into fp8 cache pairing the FP8-KV production path takes (the fused QK-norm+RoPE kernel emits E4M3 k/v), the phase libraries' no-K/V contract, and the model layer's call order (write, then indexer with idx_k_prewritten, then forward with k=v=None) on the bf16 indexer, FP8 indexer and dense layers. Signed-off-by: Zheyu Fu <zheyuf@nvidia.com>
The fused-scatter test fanned out to 108 cases; eight of its nine input cases exercised pure-Python layout preconditions that do not depend on dtype or head count. Keep the numerical check against the legacy write_kv_slots path per source/cache dtype pairing, with and without index-K, at one head count. Drop the no-K/V phase test, which covered a pre-existing early return, and the FP8-indexer variant of the call-order test, which only differed in passing idx_k=None through.

Description
Port of #16755 (merged on Minimax-m3 side branch for AgentX submission) to
main. Same change, re-applied on top of main's MSA backend.Where this PR targets at:
MiniMax-M3 MSA per-layer KV-cache writes fusion (K, V, index-K):
Take a sparse layer as example:
The problem
Each MSA layer writes its new-token main K, main V, and (sparse layers) index-K. Writing of K, V and index-K takes four tiny kernels: division, remainder, index cast, index_put scatter. So that's 3*4=12 kernel launches per sparse layer. At 60 layers that is ~720 tiny kernels per decode step, all captured into decode CUDA graphs and re-executed on every step. It accumulates to large launch overhead.
The fix
This PR replaces them with one Triton launch per layer (~720 → 60) launches on the write path each iter).
Measured impact (4x B300, InferenceMAX-style serving benchmark)
trtllm-serve+benchmark_serving, NVFP4 + fp8 KV cache, MSA, decode CUDA graphs + overlap scheduler, no spec decode, random 8k/1k, identical seeded prompt sets, JIT/autotuner warmed.Nsys trace for a layer (look at green parts)
Before fix: 4 tiny kernels-to-be-fused for index-K, then 3 kernels for indexer, then 8 tiny kernels-to-be-fused for K and V.
After fix: 1 fused Triton launch (contains previous 12 kernels for K, V and K-index), then 3 kernels for indexer. So it's fuse + reorder: compute the page/offset once, write K + V + index-K together, before the indexer runs.
