test(mhas_v2): NaN-poison ragged capacity tails so capacity-vs-live-token bugs fail deterministically (#624) - #646
Conversation
…oken bugs fail deterministically (GitHub NVIDIA#624) The f16/bf16 harness filled the entire packed K/V/Q/dO capacity - pad tokens included - with finite random data, so an engine that reads past the last ragged offset (e.g. THD zero-host-read binding K/V views to buffer capacity instead of live token counts) stayed green: the padding mask turns finite garbage into exact zeros, while real recycled device memory holds NaN bit patterns and 0 x NaN = NaN poisons whole output rows. The fp8 harness already NaN-fills its pads via convert_uniform_to_packed, which is why the only test able to catch GitHub NVIDIA#624 in the wild was fp8 ragged - and only with a lucky seed. - packed_token_capacity: capacity is now always strictly greater than the packed total (next multiple of 64), so every ragged buffer has a poisonable tail; previously an exact-multiple total had no tail and the bug class structurally could not fire. - fp16 harness: NaN-fill the capacity tail of Q/K/V/dO after the random fill, matching the fp8 harness contract. - fp16/fp8 harnesses: use the shared packed_token_capacity instead of three duplicated inline formulas. Validation on SM100 (B200): - native routing: failure set bit-identical to unmodified develop on MHAS_NUM_TESTS=16/32 ragged sweeps (no collateral). - FROST routing (CUDNN_FRONTEND_ENABLE_FROST_ENGINES=1, checkout with the NVIDIA#606 zero-host-read path): old harness 24/24 ragged f16 fwd pass; new harness fails 19/24 with the exact NVIDIA#624 signature (o_gpu 24% NaN in valid rows). mxfp8 note: the mxfp8 harness has no ragged/THD path (its random configs never draw "ragged"), so this class is not yet exercisable there; fp8 covers the 1-byte-dtype THD engines.

The sdpa_mxfp8 python API has no seq_len/padding arguments and exec_sdpa_mxfp8 never reads cfg.seq_len_q/kv, so a "padded" draw ran dense-full while the repro config claimed padding — inflated coverage. Draw full-only with a pointer to re-add padded/ragged once the API grows seq-len support (the shared packed_token_capacity / convert_uniform_to_packed helpers then provide the NaN-poisoned capacity tails from the previous commit automatically). Also documents the analogous fp8 gap in-place: a dense "padded" draw runs as full because exec_sdpa_fp8 binds seq_len tensors only on the paged and ragged paths.

test_mhas_v2.pyagainst the #624 bug class (THD zero-host-read binding K/V views to buffer capacity instead of live token counts: NaN bits in the capacity tail x masked-P=0 poison whole output rows).packed_token_capacity: capacity is now always strictly greater than the packed total (next multiple of 64). Previously an exact-multiple total had no tail, so the bug class structurally could not fire in tests.convert_uniform_to_packed(why the only test able to catch frost(sdpa): THD zero-host-read execute loads uninitialized KV capacity rows — NaN poisons P@V on the f16/fp8 SM100/SM120 rows #624 in the wild was fp8 ragged, and only with a lucky seed); now sharespacked_token_capacityso its tail is guaranteed non-empty.sdpa_mxfp8API has no seq_len/padding arguments and the engines defer THD, so the class is not yet expressible there. This PR stops the mxfp8 fwd suite from drawing "padded" configs that silently ran dense-full (inflated coverage), and leaves pointers so the NaN-poison machinery applies automatically once seq-len support lands. The analogous fp8 dense-"padded"-runs-as-full gap is documented in place.Validation (B200 / SM100)
o_gpu24% NaN in valid rows — the exact #624 signaturemxfp8 suites: failure/skip sets identical to develop before/after (the draw change only remaps padded->full).
