[https://nvbugs/6604925][fix] Swap the grid axes so N maps to the unbounded grid.x and M to grid.y… - #17660
Conversation
…rid.x
cudaCoreGemmKernel built its grid as (m / TILE_M, n / TILE_N), placing the N
tile count on grid.y. CUDA caps grid.y at 65535 while grid.x allows 2^31-1, so
a wide output overflowed the axis and every launch returned
cudaErrorInvalidArgument. Qwen3.6-35B-A3B has an NVFP4 LM head of N=248320,
which with TILE_N=2 needs 124160 blocks.
Swap the axes so N rides grid.x and M rides grid.y; M is bounded by
cudaCoreGemmTemplateMaxM (16) and can never overflow. The tile-id reads are
swapped to match, which are the only blockIdx uses in the kernel.
The autotuner caught the failing tactic and fell back to a working backend, so
this usually surfaced only as a profiling warning -- hence the ~1% flake rate
rather than a hard failure. Verified bit-exact (max|diff| = 0) against
nvfp4_gemm_cutlass for m in {1,4,8,16} and n up to 248320, and the
65536-block boundary that previously failed to launch now succeeds.
Removes the waiver this bug added.

Adding a multi-GPU stage explicitly. The default stage selection for this change picks no multi-GPU tests, so the pipeline skips them regardless of the label.
This is regression cover on 4 GPUs, not extra cover for the overflow itself: those shapes use N up to 7168, far below the point where the grid dimension overflows, so the case that actually validates the fix remains the unwaived |
