I'll start by reading the reference implementation and the problem layout so we know the exact interface and constraints for the paged attention decode kernel. Checking the environment and searching the repo for similar kernel patterns. Implementing a Triton paged-attention decode kernel, starting with a correct baseline and iterating on performance. Fixing Triton control flow: replacing `break` with masking. Correctness passes. Running the benchmark and profiling to optimize. Implementing a GQA-aware kernel that batches tokens per page with `tl.dot`. Rewriting the kernel with proper 2D pointer loads and checking whether FlashInfer is available as a baseline. Performance passes. Optimizing weak shapes (2 and 4) and comparing against SOTA baselines. Optimizing long-sequence shapes by unrolling two pages per iteration and using bf16 tensor-core dots. The page-unroll logic is overly complex. Reverting to the simpler working kernel and adding autotune plus bf16 dots. Autotune can pick invalid BLOCK_D values. Restoring manual block sizing and keeping bf16 dots. Implemented a Triton paged-attention decode kernel in `solution.py`. It passes `check.py` and reaches **~24% of peak DRAM bandwidth** (geomean `peak_fraction: 0.2399`, well above the 0.1 threshold). ## Approach The kernel uses a **GQA-aware, page-batched** design: - **Grid**: `(batch, num_kv_heads)` — one CTA per batch element and KV head, sharing KV loads across `group_size` query heads - **Page loop**: walks `block_table` to gather non-contiguous pages from the global KV pool - **Per-page batching**: loads a full page `(page_size=16, head_dim)` of K/V in one shot via 2D blocked loads - **Matmul**: `tl.dot` for QK (`group_size × head_dim` @ `head_dim × page_size`) and PV - **Numerics**: online softmax in fp32 (FlashAttention-style), bf16 tensor-core dots, fp32 accumulation — matches the reference within 0.02 tolerance ## Key layout handling - KV cache last dim packs `[K | V]` — K at `[:head_dim]`, V at `[head_dim:]` - Partial final pages are masked with `tokens_in_page` (covers non-power-of-2 seq lengths like 1535 and 2000) - GQA broadcast is implicit: heads `kv_head * group_size .. +group_size` share the same K/V stream ## Performance (representative) | Shape | seq_len | Peak fraction | |-------|---------|---------------| | 0 (8B decode) | 1024 | 21% | | 1 (batched) | 2048 | 73% | | 2 (70B long) | 4096 | 15% | | 3 (non-pow2) | 1535 | 44% | | 4 (small D) | 2000 | 8% | Shape 2 is loop-bound (256 page iterations); shape 4 has lower occupancy with `head_dim=64`. Both still contribute to a passing geomean.

I need you to write a paged attention decode kernel for the RTX PRO 6000 (SM120 Blackwell, GDDR7, 1.8 TB/s). The reference implementation is in reference.py and your kernel goes in solution.py. You can make whatever mess you want in this directory — scratch files, intermediate kernels, build artifacts, profiling traces — but the final answer has to be in solution.py with the same Model, get_inputs, and get_init_inputs interface as reference.py. This is single-query decode: each batch element has a query of shape (num_heads, head_dim) and attends over a KV cache of seq_len[b] tokens stored as fixed-size pages in a global pool, with block_table[b] listing which pages belong to batch element b. The KV cache is laid out as (num_blocks, page_size, num_kv_heads, head_dim * 2) where the last dim packs [K | V] so a single gather pulls both. You return the bf16 output of shape (batch, num_heads, head_dim). Correctness tolerance is 0.02 abs/rel on bf16/fp16. The shapes you have to handle are batch=8 num_heads=32 num_kv_heads=8 head_dim=128 seq_len=1024 page_size=16 (Llama-3 8B-style decode), batch=32 num_heads=32 num_kv_heads=8 head_dim=128 seq_len=2048 page_size=16 (server-batched decode), batch=4 num_heads=64 num_kv_heads=8 head_dim=128 seq_len=4096 page_size=16 (Llama-3 70B GQA wide ratio with long context), batch=16 num_heads=32 num_kv_heads=8 head_dim=128 seq_len=1535 page_size=16 (non-power-of-two seq_len that forces predicated tails), and batch=8 num_heads=16 num_kv_heads=4 head_dim=64 seq_len=2000 page_size=16 (small head_dim, non-pow2). This needs to be a real custom kernel. Don't import or call vllm.attention, flashinfer.batch_decode_with_paged_kv_cache, flashinfer.decode, torch.nn.functional.scaled_dot_product_attention, or F.scaled_dot_product_attention — they're off-limits, including the trick of gathering pages first and then dispatching to SDPA. Try CUDA C++ via load_inline, Triton, inline PTX, or CUTLASS — whatever fits. Anything you're uncertain about, look up PTX docs, clone CUTLASS or vLLM or FlashInfer or other reference repos, read library headers, and investigate. Your flywheel is implement, profile (ncu, nsys, torch.profiler — whatever's useful) and time it with benchmark.py, verify correctness by running `python check.py` and reading the output, then iterate. Don't substitute your own one-off correctness snippets for check.py — it iterates over every shape, your spot-check almost certainly won't. If `python check.py` hasn't printed PASS, you're not done. Take as long as you need to actually push the number up. Workspace isolation note: you are already running inside the archive-local problem workspace, /workspace/problems/03_paged_attention. Write the final answer to solution.py in the current directory only. The source repository's problems/ tree is not mounted. Container note: inside this run, the visible workspace path is /workspace/problems/03_paged_attention. The source repository, old runs, leaderboards, and host harness memory are not mounted. Container network mode is bridge. Run all Python through `uv run ...` so you use the workspace uv environment; it is built from the same uv.lock as the official scoring environment. The container image's system python has a different torch build and is NOT the scoring environment.

"""Naive PyTorch paged-attention decode reference (correctness oracle, not SOTA).

Single-query decode: each batch element has a query of shape (num_heads, head_dim)
and attends over a KV cache of `seq_len[b]` tokens stored as fixed-size pages in
a global pool. Pages for batch element b are listed in `block_table[b]`.

The reference performs the slow path:
  1. Gather pages -> contiguous (seq_len, num_kv_heads, head_dim) per batch element.
  2. Repeat KV heads for grouped-query (broadcast num_kv_heads -> num_heads).
  3. Manual softmax(QK^T / sqrt(d)) @ V in fp32, cast back to bf16.

This avoids torch.nn.functional.scaled_dot_product_attention (which is on the
forbidden list) so the agent cannot dispatch through SDPA either.

Implemented a Triton paged-attention decode kernel in `solution.py`. It passes `check.py` and reaches **~24% of peak DRAM bandwidth** (geomean `peak_fraction: 0.2399`, well above the 0.1 threshold). ## Approach The kernel uses a **GQA-aware, page-batched** design: - **Grid**: `(batch, num_kv_heads)` — one CTA per batch element and KV head, sharing KV loads across `group_size` query heads - **Page loop**: walks `block_table` to gather non-contiguous pages from the global KV pool - **Per-page batching**: loads a full page `(page_size=16, head_dim)` of K/V in one shot via 2D blocked loads - **Matmul**: `tl.dot` for QK (`group_size × head_dim` @ `head_dim × page_size`) and PV - **Numerics**: online softmax in fp32 (FlashAttention-style), bf16 tensor-core dots, fp32 accumulation — matches the reference within 0.02 tolerance ## Key layout handling - KV cache last dim packs `[K | V]` — K at `[:head_dim]`, V at `[head_dim:]` - Partial final pages are masked with `tokens_in_page` (covers non-power-of-2 seq lengths like 1535 and 2000) - GQA broadcast is implicit: heads `kv_head * group_size .. +group_size` share the same K/V stream ## Performance (representative) | Shape | seq_len | Peak fraction | |-------|---------|---------------| | 0 (8B decode) | 1024 | 21% | | 1 (batched) | 2048 | 73% | | 2 (70B long) | 4096 | 15% | | 3 (non-pow2) | 1535 | 44% | | 4 (small D) | 2000 | 8% | Shape 2 is loop-bound (256 page iterations); shape 4 has lower occupancy with `head_dim=64`. Both still contribute to a passing geomean.
