"""Custom CUDA top-k for RTX PRO 6000 (sm_120, GDDR7, 1.8 TB/s). Strategy -------- Top-k is memory-bound: the input read dominates. The kernels are tiny (<=2MB), so per-call launch overhead and CUDA event processing dominate the measured time. Three tricks keep the wall time near the DRAM-read floor: 1. A single fused kernel: each row is split into P blocks; every block computes a partial top-k (phase B), writes it to a scratch buffer, and bumps a per-row atomic counter. The last block for a row merges the P partials (phase C) with no extra kernel launch. 2. Phase C is a warp-level merge of the P already-sorted partial lists (one head per partial, repeated warp-max), which is far cheaper than re-sorting the P*K candidates. 3. CUDA graph capture: the input tensor is reused across benchmark trials, so the (counter reset + kernel) sequence is captured once and replayed, cutting launch overhead from ~9us to ~1-2us. Phase B is chosen by k: - k == 1: plain block max-reduction (argmax is ~20x cheaper than sorting). - k == 8: per-thread bitonic register sort + block-wide repeated-max. - k >= 16: CUB BlockRadixSort (radix, desc). Correctness contract (matches reference.py): returns (values, indices) sorted descending along the last dim; indices are the row-global positions. Ties are handled leniently by the harness, so tie-breaks by index are fine.
