sgmv_cutlass calculate wrong output

[harryhan618]

I'm running the following code and find the answer goes wrong. I initialize the x and w to be all ones. So the output y value should be h1=4096.

But my output is not. Half of the output is 4096 and the other half is 2528. Weird!
My observation is that the wrong answer happens when h2>=32 for shrink.

The following code is adapted from benchmarks/bench_sgmv_cutlass.py

import torch
import punica.ops

bs = 4
h1 = 4096
h2 = 32
num_layers = 1
dtype = torch.float16
device = torch.device("cuda:0")
problem_sizes = [2, 2]

w = [
      torch.ones((num_layers, h1, h2), dtype=dtype, device=device)
      for _ in range(len(problem_sizes))
  ]
w_ptr = torch.tensor([t.data_ptr() for t in w],
                     dtype=torch.int64,
                     device=device)
s = torch.cumsum(
    torch.tensor([0] + problem_sizes, device=device),
    dim=0,
    dtype=torch.int32)
x = torch.ones((s[-1], h1), dtype=dtype, device=device)
y = torch.zeros((s[-1], h2), dtype=dtype, device=device)
punica.ops.sgmv_cutlass(y, x, w_ptr, s, layer_idx=0)

print(y)

Hmm... That's interesting... BTW, thanks for providing this script. Super helpful for reproducing the bug!

We'll take a look at this. In the meanwhile, you can use punica.ops.sgmv() for SGMV-shrink and punica.ops.add_lora_sgmv_custom_cutlass() for LoRA. Note that our custom kernel assumes column major weight whereas our cutlass kernel assumes row major weight.

The following works:

import torch
import punica.ops

bs = 4
h1 = 4096
h2 = 32
num_layers = 1
dtype = torch.float16
device = torch.device("cuda:0")
problem_sizes = [2, 2]

w = [
      torch.ones((num_layers, h2, h1), dtype=dtype, device=device)
      for _ in range(len(problem_sizes))
  ]
w_ptr = torch.tensor([t.data_ptr() for t in w],
                     dtype=torch.int64,
                     device=device)
s = torch.cumsum(
    torch.tensor([0] + problem_sizes, device=device),
    dim=0,
    dtype=torch.int32)
x = torch.ones((s[-1], h1), dtype=dtype, device=device)
y = torch.zeros((s[-1], h2), dtype=dtype, device=device)
punica.ops.sgmv(y, x, w_ptr, s, layer_idx=0)

print(y)

Thanks for your reply!
I'm curious that why do you choose column major weight? My basic understanding is that row major is friendly for data loading. Sorry I haven't read the kernel code yet.

@harryhan618 modern GPUs support transpose at fragment level (with ldmatrix.***.trans/movmatrix instructions) at very low cost, so there should not be a significant performance difference between column major & row major layout.

We will support row-major for shrink kernel in the next release.

I also met the case that kernel launch fails under rank == 64 for sgmv_shrink usage:

import torch
import punica.ops

bs = 1
h1 = 1024
h2 = 64
num_layers = 32
dtype = torch.float16
device = torch.device("cuda:0")
problem_sizes = [1]

w = [
      torch.randn((num_layers, h2, h1), dtype=dtype, device=device)
      for _ in range(len(problem_sizes))
  ]

w_ptr = torch.tensor([t.data_ptr() for t in w],
                     dtype=torch.int64,
                     device=device)
s = torch.cumsum(
    torch.tensor([0] + problem_sizes, device=device),
    dim=0,
    dtype=torch.int32)
x = torch.ones((s[-1], h1), dtype=dtype, device=device)
y = torch.zeros((s[-1], h2), dtype=dtype, device=device)
# punica.ops.sgmv_cutlass(y, x, w_ptr, s, layer_idx=0)
punica.ops.sgmv(y, x, w_ptr, s, layer_idx=0)

print(y)

Output:

RuntimeError: No suitable kernel. dtype=Half d_out=64

NVM, I found this is related to shared memory. PR: #20

Hi, any updates on why cutlass group gemmed calculate wrong results?

I just added a few test cases. 0c7cf81

Cutlass only has this problem for shrink. Since we are deprecating cutlass shrink, we probably won't fix this. Before our custom expand lands, you can use punica.add_lora_sgmv_custom_cutlass() for LoRA.

Hi lequn, I think I found the bug of cutlass_shrink.

Please first see cutlass example 24 group gemm. The second parameter for LinearCombination should 128 / cutlass::sizeof_bits<ElementOutput>::value. For dtype float16, this should be 8.
(Although I don't know why this formula?)

In your code, for shrink, you wrote 4. I think this should be bug. For expand, you wrote 8, which is correct.

By the way, to make the code correctly compiled, I have to change Thread Block Shape and Warp Shape to be GemmShape<16, 128, 64> and GemmShape<16, 32, 64>.

So I'm also wondering how to choose these shape? Since that's the key difference between shrink and expand. I'm looking forward to see your insight!

Thank you!
