[TRTLLM-15160][feat] Add post-attention o_proj gate hook to shared MLA base and make trtllm::kda_decode inplace-only - #18375
Conversation
WalkthroughKDA decode now requires caller-owned output storage and writes results in place. Python wrappers and optimized decode provide validated buffers. MLA centralizes output gating before projection, with Kimi K3 overriding the shared hook. ChangesRuntime execution updates
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to KDA decode now relies on a caller-provided output buffer, but cross-device buffers are not rejected before the CUDA launch. This can cause invalid memory access; the device check should be added before merging. Suggested reviewers: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)
✅ Passed checks (4 passed)
Full details: Description checkExplanation The description explains the two changes, their implementation details, rationale, compatibility impact, and validation results. It does not use the exact Test Coverage heading or include the checklist confirmation, but the required technical information is substantially complete.

Drop the optional output tensor from the kda_decode op schema so the CUDA kernel only ever writes into a caller-provided buffer. Allocation moves to the Python wrapper (run_kda_decode_fusion_cuda), and the hot decode path in the KDA mixer supplies a persistent, pool-slot-sized, never-reallocated output buffer (_o_dense) that mirrors the existing _cs_dense CUDA-graph contract. The fake registration is updated in lockstep (required output, returns None) and the op's five mutated tensors are registered in inplace_info using alias-declaration order (output is key 5, not 1). No behavior change today -- the KDA decode path runs eagerly under CUDA graphs -- this is correct preparation for torch.compile.

Introduce an overridable _apply_output_gate(hidden_states, attn_output) hook on the MLA base, applied to o_proj's input in MLA.forward before _project_output. Because o_proj is never fused into the register_to_config custom op, the hook runs identically for both the custom-op and eager branches, and before the helix-CP output projection's reduce-scatter. The base default is identity, so the DeepSeek/Eagle MLA subclasses are unchanged. Kimi K3 MLA overrides the hook with its sigmoid output gate and drops its forward() override; its only real delta was that gate. Routing K3 through the base forward also picks up the o_proj / helix-CP output-projection path for free. K3 keeps register_to_config=False to preserve its validated eager MLA execution; the gate hook is compatible with either register_to_config value. The KimiK3MLAAttention caller now passes position_ids=None (K3 is NoPE) to match the base forward signature. Signed-off-by: Fred Wei <20514172+WeiHaocheng@users.noreply.github.com>

Reject cross-device output tensors before launch.
kda_decode_fusion_forward checks only output.is_cuda(). An output on cuda:1 can pass with x_q on cuda:0, and launch_selected_kernel then passes both pointers to invokeKdaDecode. This may cause invalid cross-device memory access. Add TORCH_CHECK(output.device() == x_q.device(), ...) before the launch.

Description
Two independent, low-risk PyTorch-backend refactors.
Make trtllm::kda_decode inplace-only — Drop the optional output tensor from the op schema so the CUDA kernel only ever writes into a caller-provided buffer.
Allocation moves to the Python wrapper, and the KDA mixer's optimized decode path supplies a persistent, pool-slot-sized, never-reallocated output buffer
(mirroring the existing _cs_dense CUDA-graph contract). The fake registration is updated in lockstep and the op's mutated tensors are registered in inplace_info
(alias-declaration order). No behavior change today (KDA decode runs eagerly under CUDA graphs) — correct prep for torch.compile.
Add a post-attention o_proj gate hook to the shared MLA base — Introduce an overridable _apply_output_gate(hidden_states, attn_output) on the base MLA, applied
to o_proj's input in MLA.forward before _project_output. Since o_proj is never fused into the register_to_config custom op, the hook runs identically for both
the custom-op and eager branches, and before the helix-CP reduce-scatter. The base default is identity, so the DeepSeek/Eagle subclasses are unchanged. Kimi K3
MLA overrides the hook with its sigmoid output gate and drops its forward() override, also picking up the base o_proj / helix-CP output-projection path.
Validation
Notes
No API-signature changes and no new LLM args. The two changes are independent concerns and can be split into two PRs if preferred.
