Both calls place several arguments on one line and end with a magic trailing comma. Black at line length 160 explodes such calls to one argument per line. Run Black so the file matches the repository format.

Inline comments:
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/benchmark_single_attention.py`:
- Around line 725-731: Align the fp8 execution model between setup_cudnn_fp8 and
the documented query/KV dtypes, then update the attention_bytes call to pass the
corresponding qo_elt_size instead of its default. Ensure Q and O byte accounting
matches the actual buffers moved by the kernel so fp8 gbps and sol_pct are
accurate, while preserving the existing kv_elt_size handling.
- Around line 118-119: Update the FP8 setup call in the kv_cache_dtype branch to
pass the configured sink-token behavior from args.has_sink and enable
bottom-right causal-mask alignment when q_tokens equals 1 with a sliding window,
matching the BF16 path; alternatively reject that unsupported configuration
before benchmarking.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/config_types.py`:
- Around line 60-82: Update with_tp_shards in
benchmark/attention_inference/config_types.py:60-82 to reject tensor-parallel
degrees that do not evenly divide preset.num_q_heads, raising ValueError before
creating a shard. Update the TP degrees in
benchmark/attention_inference/configs/auto_regressive_dit.py:26-26 to use only
values that divide the preset’s 9 query heads; no rounding or head-dropping
should occur.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/configs/__init__.py`:
- Around line 13-16: Update the config import handling around
importlib.import_module so ModuleNotFoundError raised within a valid config
module is re-raised unchanged. Only convert the error to the existing
unknown-config ValueError when the missing module is the requested config
itself, and suppress exception chaining for that case.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/configs/deepseek_v4.py`:
- Around line 22-52: Update the DeepSeek v4 benchmark configuration so at least
one ModelPreset used by CONFIG sets sliding_window_size to the documented window
size of 128, ensuring runner.run_single passes the window argument for the
intended windowed cases; otherwise revise the CONFIG comment to accurately
describe only unwindowed coverage. Keep the existing unwindowed presets and
benchmark shapes unchanged.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/configs/kimi_k3.py`:
- Around line 14-18: Update the module docstring in the kimi_k3 configuration to
remove the claim that it only sweeps generation. Document that CONFIG
intentionally sweeps both absorbed generation shapes and unabsorbed context
cases represented by context_seqlens and context_chunked_shapes.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/README.md`:
- Around line 77-78: Update the FP8 KV description near the cudnn-path notes to
distinguish the query dtype from the cached K/V dtype, matching the independent
data_type and kv_cache_dtype handling in runner.py rather than describing all
Q/K/V tensors as FP8.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/run_all.sh`:
- Around line 27-31: Create the benchmark results directory before the
configuration loop or before each pipeline, ensuring the parent directory for
the log path exists before tee runs. Update the setup around the CONFIGS loop
while preserving the existing runner arguments and failure handling.
In `@benchmark/attention_inference/runner.py`:
- Around line 272-279: Update the args.dry_run branch to apply the same model
filter from args.filter and phase filter from args.phase that run_config uses
before counting and printing cases; retain the existing backend filtering and
output behavior, so dry-run results match the cases that would actually run.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
No windowed case exists, but the comments promise one.
The docstring states that the benchmarked dense core is sliding-window MQA with a window of 128. The comment on Line 45 states that the config covers "the windowed shape". Neither preset sets sliding_window_size, so runner.run_single never passes --sliding_window_size and every case runs unwindowed. The generation rows at kv_len=131072 then report full-cache bandwidth.
Add a windowed preset, or correct the comments.

Update the DeepSeek v4 benchmark configuration so at least one ModelPreset used
by CONFIG sets sliding_window_size to the documented window size of 128,
ensuring runner.run_single passes the window argument for the intended windowed
cases; otherwise revise the CONFIG comment to accurately describe only
unwindowed coverage. Keep the existing unwindowed presets and benchmark shapes

…dnn_oss) A standalone perf harness measuring attention as served, in two phases: - context (TFLOPS): full prefill (s_q == s_kv) and chunked prefill (512/1024-token chunks vs a 64k/128k cache, bottom-right causal), charted as stacked subplots per kind. - generation (GB/s + % of memory SOL): q_tokens = 1 + MTP for MTP 0-3 against a 128k cache, one chart subplot per MTP width. Two backends are swept: cudnn (native engines, heur A + FALLBACK) and cudnn_oss (same graph planned with heur_mode.OPENSOURCE and CUDNN_FRONTEND_ENABLE_FROST_ENGINES=1, winning plan recorded per case). Reference backends (flashinfer / flash_mla / b12x / FA4) stay available for ad-hoc --backend runs. Models from official HF configs (llama3.1, qwen3.5, gpt-oss, deepseek-v4 shared-K=V MQA d512, kimi-k3 absorbed MLA 576/512, AR video DiT), each swept across TP 1/2/4/8 shards; charts render every shape as a cluster whose ticks run tp1 -> tp8. Generation batches are [1, 128] (latency anchor + bandwidth plateau; intermediate batches are a smooth occupancy ramp) with an fp8-e4m3 KV axis where the models serve it. Unsupported combinations occupy blank chart slots rather than dropped ticks. results/<config>/b300/ carries a full B300 (sm_103) sweep; sm120 follows. The training suite gains kimi_k3 and deepseek_v4 configs (unabsorbed / training-shape attention) and tolerates flash_attn builds without __version__.

Addressed the review in ad2a12b:
The B300 fp8 rows will be refreshed by a re-run with the corrected byte accounting and sink rejection (gpt_oss fp8 becomes honest blanks). |

…dnn_oss) (NVIDIA#636) * benchmark: attention inference suite (context/generation, cudnn vs cudnn_oss) A standalone perf harness measuring attention as served, in two phases: - context (TFLOPS): full prefill (s_q == s_kv) and chunked prefill (512/1024-token chunks vs a 64k/128k cache, bottom-right causal), charted as stacked subplots per kind. - generation (GB/s + % of memory SOL): q_tokens = 1 + MTP for MTP 0-3 against a 128k cache, one chart subplot per MTP width. Two backends are swept: cudnn (native engines, heur A + FALLBACK) and cudnn_oss (same graph planned with heur_mode.OPENSOURCE and CUDNN_FRONTEND_ENABLE_FROST_ENGINES=1, winning plan recorded per case). Reference backends (flashinfer / flash_mla / b12x / FA4) stay available for ad-hoc --backend runs. Models from official HF configs (llama3.1, qwen3.5, gpt-oss, deepseek-v4 shared-K=V MQA d512, kimi-k3 absorbed MLA 576/512, AR video DiT), each swept across TP 1/2/4/8 shards; charts render every shape as a cluster whose ticks run tp1 -> tp8. Generation batches are [1, 128] (latency anchor + bandwidth plateau; intermediate batches are a smooth occupancy ramp) with an fp8-e4m3 KV axis where the models serve it. Unsupported combinations occupy blank chart slots rather than dropped ticks. results/<config>/b300/ carries a full B300 (sm_103) sweep; sm120 follows. The training suite gains kimi_k3 and deepseek_v4 configs (unabsorbed / training-shape attention) and tolerates flash_attn builds without __version__.

What
A new standalone perf harness,
benchmark/attention_inference/, measuring attention as served — split into two phases mirroring fwd/bwd insdpa_benchmark_training:s_q == s_kv) and chunked prefill (512/1024-token chunks against a 64k/128k cache, bottom-right causal), stacked per-kind in one chart.q_tokens = 1 + MTPfor MTP 0–3 against a 128k cache, one chart subplot per MTP width.Two backends are swept and charted:
cudnn— the graph API on native backend engines (heur A + FALLBACK)cudnn_oss— the same graph planned withheur_mode.OPENSOURCE+CUDNN_FRONTEND_ENABLE_FROST_ENGINES=1, so only the frontend's open-source engines may serve it; the winning plan is recorded per caseReference backends (flashinfer / flash_mla / b12x / FA4) remain implemented in
benchmark_single_attention.pyfor ad-hoc--backendruns but are out of the default sweep.Sweep design
Results included
results/<config>/b300/carries a full B300 (sm_103) sweep. Highlights: the frost d512 prefill engine outruns the native sm103 path ~2.8× on dsv4 prefill and serves all shared-KV decode; native q=1 decode runs ~90% of memory SOL but MTP>0 widths drop to ~10%; b1/tp8 decode reaches only 19% of the batched plateau on llama. sm120 (RTX PRO 6000) results are queued as a follow-up commit on this branch.Test plan
