# Skill: kernel-optimization

# Kernel Optimization

Unified reference for GPU/TPU kernel work across all platforms. This skill routes to specialized sub-references based on what you need.

## When this skill fires

- Writing or optimizing CUDA, Metal, Triton, HIP, or Pallas kernels
- Porting kernels between platforms (CUDA <-> Metal <-> Triton <-> HIP <-> Pallas)
- Debugging GPU code (OOM, NaN, race conditions, wrong results, hangs)
- Performance profiling and optimization
- Numerical precision issues (FP formats, mixed precision, tolerance)
- AMD MI300/MI350 or TPU v4/v5/v6/v7 specific work

## Sub-references (read on demand)

The following files contain deep platform-specific knowledge. Read the relevant one(s) based on the task:

| File | When to read |
|------|-------------|
| `~/.claude/skills/amd-gpu/SKILL.md` | AMD CDNA/RDNA, ROCm, HIP, MFMA, LDS, chiplet scheduling, HipKittens, AITER |
| `~/.claude/skills/tpu-opt/SKILL.md` | TPU v4-v7, MXU, Pallas kernels, JAX sharding, XLA gotchas, SplashAttention |
| `~/.claude/skills/port-kernel/SKILL.md` | Cross-platform porting: CUDA <-> Metal <-> Triton concept maps, API equivalents, gotchas |
| `~/.claude/skills/debug-gpu/SKILL.md` | OOM diagnosis, NaN tracing, race conditions, compute-sanitizer, FP format specs, tolerance tables |
| `~/.claude/skills/perf-optim/SKILL.md` | Profiling (nsys/ncu/Metal), roofline, occupancy, memory hierarchy, CUTLASS/CuTe, quantization, KernelBench |

1: """Centralized GPU timing for benchmark.py files.
2: 
3: All problems' benchmark.py should call `time_fn` from here so we have one
4: implementation of warmup, L2 flush, and CUDA event capture to maintain.
5: 
6: Methodology:
7:   - 10 warmup calls absorb Triton autotune (typical ~7 configs) and
8:     torch.compile reduce-overhead CUDA-graph capture.
9:   - Between each timed call, `_l2_flush()` writes 128 MB to evict L2
10:     (Blackwell L2 is 96 MB; we want any prior L2 contents flushed so
11:     we measure HBM-load bandwidth, not L2-cached bandwidth).
12:   - GPU timing via cuda.Event with synchronize() AFTER record() but
13:     BEFORE elapsed_time() — the canonical NVIDIA pattern.
14:   - Reported value is the median of `iters` trials, robust to outliers.
15: 
16: Notes / known biases not addressed here:
17:   - torch.compile(mode="reduce-overhead") gets CUDA graphs which eliminate
18:     launch overhead. Custom Triton/CUDA kernels do NOT get this treatment.
19:     On small shapes where launch overhead matters, this gives compile an
20:     artificial advantage. We accept this as the cost of using the agreed
21:     "compiled" baseline policy.
22:   - cuBLAS / cuDNN allocate workspaces on first call. 10 warmup absorbs.
23:   - Median over a fairly small number of trials (default 30) is fine for
24:     headline numbers but won't catch bimodal distributions. Use --ext
