"""Fused im2col + GEMM patch-embedding kernel (Triton).

Key optimization: BLOCK_K = PADDED_KW * UNROLL so that:
- Each k-tile of PADDED_KW elements maps to one (c, dt, dh) row
- x reads within each k-tile are contiguous along dw (coalesced)
- UNROLL reduces loop iterations while maintaining coalescing

Weight is pre-transposed to (K, N) for contiguous GEMM loads.
Output is written directly in (B, embed_dim, To, Ho, Wo) layout.

PASS. The solution is complete and correct. Here's a summary: ## Final Results | Shape | Description | Solution TFLOPS | vs Eager | Peak % | |-------|-------------|-----------------|----------|--------| | 0 | B=1, 224x224, 2-frame | 16.4 | 4.5x | 8.2% | | 1 | B=2, 224x224, 4-frame | 54.3 | 4.0x | 27.2% | | 2 | B=1, 336x336, 8-frame | 106.5 | 4.1x | 53.2% | | 3 | B=4, 224x224, image | 19.9 | 3.1x | 10.0% | **Geomean peak_fraction: 0.185** (all shapes 3-4.5x faster than eager cuDNN) ## Key Optimizations 1. **BLOCK_K = PADDED_KW * UNROLL**: Decomposes the K-loop into `(c, dt, dh)` rows where each row loads `kW` contiguous elements along the W dimension. This gives perfect memory coalescing within each k-tile of the tensor core dot product. 2. **Weight pre-transposed to (K, N)**: Cached as `self._w_t` for contiguous GEMM loads. 3. **Direct output layout**: Writes directly to `(B, embed_dim, To, Ho, Wo)` eliminating the expensive `.contiguous()` permute. 4. **Triton autotuning**: 10 configs over BLOCK_M (32-128), BLOCK_N (64-256), num_warps (4-8), num_stages (3-4).

2: 
3: Last updated: 2026-04-27.
4: 
5: This file is for **coding agents editing the repo** (you, via Claude Code). Do not confuse with `problems/<X>/PROMPT.txt` — those are the human-voice queries fed to agents _under test_.
6: 
7: For the journey behind the current design, read [DEVLOG.md](./DEVLOG.md).
8: 
9: ## What this repo is
10: 
11: Small kernel benchmark. Frontier coding agents are given URLs to SOTA implementations (sonic-moe, flashinfer, marlin) and asked to write a competitive kernel on RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell (SM120) in 45 minutes. Roofline-graded. Published artifact is the best kernel per (problem × model × harness), plus the agent trace.
12: 
13: See [SPEC.md](./SPEC.md) for methodology. See [README.md](./README.md) for the model matrix and quick start.
14: 
15: ## Non-negotiable rules
16: 
17: - **uv only.** No bare `python`, no `pip`. Use `uv run ...`, `uv add ...`, `uv pip install ...`.
18: - **Before committing:** `uv run ruff check . --fix && uv run pytest`.
19: - **Never edit `problems/*/solution.py`**. Those files are agent output; they're gitignored for a reason. If you need to inspect one, read it from `outputs/runs/<run>/<problem>/solution.py`.
20: - **Never modify `problems/*/reference.py`, `check.py`, `benchmark.py`, `problem.yaml`, `shapes.py`, or `PROMPT.txt`** once a sweep has been published. Those define the ben

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

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

# 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:

Now I have a clear picture of the problem. Let me plan my approach: - **Operation**: 3D patch embedding = im2col + GEMM. Input (B,C,T,H,W) → gather non-overlapping patches → matrix multiply with weight (embed_dim, C*kT*kH*kW) - **GEMM dimensions** per shape: - Shape 0: M=256, K=1176, N=1280 - Shape 1: M=1024, K=1176, N=1280 - Shape 2: M=2304, K=1176, N=1280 - Shape 3: M=784, K=768, N=768 - **Approach**: Fused Triton kernel that does im2col gather + GEMM using `tl.dot` (tensor cores)

The direct output layout saved significant time. The kernel itself is 40us but benchmarking shows 88us with L2 flush. The bottleneck is the scattered memory access pattern. Let me try a two-phase approach: optimized im2col + GEMM.

Good improvement! Peak fraction went from 0.15 to 0.16, and shape 2 jumped from 78.8 to 87.8 TFLOPS (44% of peak). Let me try a CUDA C++ approach with WMMA to push further since the main bottleneck is the scattered im2col memory access pattern that needs tighter control.

Good, peak_fraction = 0.15. Let me try a key optimization: use `BLOCK_K = padded kW` instead of 32/64. This makes adjacent threads read contiguous dw elements from x (coalesced) instead of scattered elements across different dh/dt rows.

Shape 2 jumped to 104 TFLOPS (52% of peak!) but shape 3 regressed (kW=16, padded_kW=16, so BLOCK_K=16 means 2x more iterations than BLOCK_K=32 which already had perfect coalescing for power-of-2 kW). Let me use BLOCK_K = padded_kW * 2 with proper row decomposition to get best of both worlds.

PASS. The solution is complete and correct. Here's a summary: ## Final Results | Shape | Description | Solution TFLOPS | vs Eager | Peak % | |-------|-------------|-----------------|----------|--------| | 0 | B=1, 224x224, 2-frame | 16.4 | 4.5x | 8.2% | | 1 | B=2, 224x224, 4-frame | 54.3 | 4.0x | 27.2% | | 2 | B=1, 336x336, 8-frame | 106.5 | 4.1x | 53.2% | | 3 | B=4, 224x224, image | 19.9 | 3.1x | 10.0% | **Geomean peak_fraction: 0.185** (all shapes 3-4.5x faster than eager cuDNN) ## Key Optimizations 1. **BLOCK_K = PADDED_KW * UNROLL**: Decomposes the K-loop into `(c, dt, dh)` rows where each row loads `kW` contiguous elements along the W dimension. This gives perfect memory coalescing within each k-tile of the tensor core dot product. 2. **Weight pre-transposed to (K, N)**: Cached as `self._w_t` for contiguous GEMM loads. 3. **Direct output layout**: Writes directly to `(B, embed_dim, To, Ho, Wo)` eliminating the expensive `.contiguous()` permute. 4. **Triton autotuning**: 10 configs over BLOCK_M (32-128), BLOCK_N (64-256), num_warps (4-8), num_stages (3-4).
