Summary

§63 (2026-05-11) framed SHIP-007 (AC-SHIP1-007: decode ≥30 tok/s on RTX 4090) as a 3-layer blocker stack. §73 re-measures on the same canonical 7B teacher on lambda-vector one day later and finds 2 of 3 layers already discharged by intervening commits.

Layer	§63 status	§73 status
1. FP8 warmup ILLEGAL_ADDRESS	BLOCKER	✓ ALREADY FIXED (`[PMAT-082] cuBLASLt FP8 JIT warmed (3584×16×3584)` succeeds)
2. GPU-vs-CPU parity	BLOCKER (cos=-0.005)	✗ STILL BLOCKING (byte-identical signature)
3. Throughput 5.6 → 30 tok/s	BLOCKER	✓ ALREADY MEETS FLOOR (54.5 tok/s @ 128-tok, 1.82× headroom)

Path-to-100% scope reduction

Old (§63): 5-10 PR / 1-2 week cascade
New (§73): 3-5 PR / 3-5 day single-layer fix

Layer 2 multi-PR plan:

PR-A: Add forward_gpu_traced mirroring CPU forward_traced
PR-B: Wire apr trace --device gpu --save-tensor all
PR-C: Diff CPU vs GPU stage tensors → localize first divergent stage
PR-D: Fix the localized stage (GQA-7:1 attention block hypothesized per memory)
PR-E: Discharge proof — apr parity cos ≥ 0.98 → SHIP-007 LIVE-DISCHARGED → MODEL-1 99% → 100%

Ship-% movement

MODEL-1: unchanged at 99% (Layer 2 still blocks)
Scope to 100% reduced ~3× (5-10 PRs → 3-5 PRs)
MODEL-2: unchanged at 57%

Methodology lesson #20 NEW

Re-measure cascade layers before continuing. Stale state can be reduced cheaply. §73's ~5 min of re-measurement saved possibly 5-10 PRs of unnecessary work on Layers 1 and 3.

Test plan

Empirical re-measurement on lambda-vector RTX 4090 with current main
FP8 warmup: succeeds without env-var workaround
Parity gate: same byte-identical -0.005190 cosine
Throughput: 54.5 tok/s on 128-tok 5-iter median (above 30 floor)

…GPU dumps + first empirical CPU-vs-GPU lm_head diff (PMAT-CODE-SHIP-007-GPU-BISECTION-PR-B) Extends PR-B's APR_GPU_STAGE_DUMP scaffold with: 1. `forward_all_layers_gpu_to_logits` (the eager GPU forward path used by the parity gate) now dumps two intermediate stages when APR_GPU_STAGE_DUMP is set: - PostFfnResidual at layer (num_layers-1): post-transformer-stack hidden state — answers "is the bug in the 28-layer stack?" - FinalNorm at layer 0: post-output-rmsnorm hidden state — answers "is the bug in output_rmsnorm?" Both dumps copy GPU buffer to host then call maybe_dump_host_buffer. 2. `parity_gate` now dumps CPU logits to <dir>/cpu/lm_head.bin so we can directly compare CPU vs GPU on the SAME single BOS token at position 0 (the parity-gate-canonical input). 3. §74 evidence directory with first empirical bisection result: - cpu-lm-head.bin (CPU logits, 152064 elements, single BOS token) - gpu-lm-head.bin (GPU logits, same input, cos=-0.005 vs CPU) - lm-head-diff.txt (full apr diff --values output) - findings.json (top-10 divergences, all sign-flipped, bug class) Key empirical finding (§74): Elements compared: 152064 Cosine similarity: -0.0051904189 RMS diff: 4.015977 Max |diff|: 19.50531 (at index 117375) Top-10 divergences ALL show OPPOSITE signs between CPU and GPU. Systematic anti-correlation, not random noise. CPU argmax: 334 | GPU argmax: 8127 Bug class hypothesis: layout/stride bug in a matmul kernel (most likely attn_out projection or LM head matmul). The systematic sign-flip points to transpose-or-stride error rather than accumulation error. Out of scope (PR-D follow-ups): - Intermediate dumps (PostFfnResidual, FinalNorm) didn't fire on this empirical run — likely workspace buffer accessibility issue; needs pre-copy_to_host stream sync. Fix in PR-D-a. - PR-D-b: with working intermediate dumps, localize whether bug is in transformer stack vs output_rmsnorm vs LM head. - PR-D-c: bisect within the localized stage. - PR-E: fix + discharge SHIP-007 → MODEL-1 99% → 100%.

Mechanism hypothesis: layout/stride/buffer bug in Q6K GEMV kernel (or its DP4A/HwDp4a variants for sm_89). The GPU intermediate values look correct, so the 28-layer transformer stack is NOT the issue. The divergence appears between final_norm and logits — i.e., in the LM head matmul.

Adds: 1. New module `inference_trace/gpu_stage_dump.rs`: - GpuStageDumpConfig::from_env() reads APR_GPU_STAGE_DUMP=<dir> - maybe_dump_host_buffer(config, stage, layer, values) writes APRT format (12-byte header + f32 LE body) matching CPU `apr trace --save-tensor` byte format - 6 unit tests pass (env unset/empty/set, no-op without config, APRT format round-trip, per-layer path isolation) 2. Wiring into `forward_gpu_resident` (the GPU-resident path used by the PARITY-GATE): - Embedding stage: host-side embed_buf dumped post-`embed_into` (no GPU<->host transfer needed) - LmHead stage: post-bias logits dumped before return - Both calls are zero-cost no-ops when APR_GPU_STAGE_DUMP is unset - Errors are non-fatal (logged to stderr) to preserve production correctness if dumps fail Out of scope (subsequent PR-Bn slices): - AttnNorm, QkvMatmul, QkvBias, RoPE outputs, AttnScores, AttnSoftmax, Attention, AttnOut, PostAttnResidual, FfnNorm, FfnGate/Up/Silu/Swigl, FfnOut, PostFfnResidual, FinalNorm — each requires a GpuBuffer copy_to_host inside transformer_layer_workspace. - CLI wireup (`apr trace --device gpu`) → PR-C - CPU vs GPU diff → PR-D - Fix of localized stage → PR-E Usage (for PR-D's bisection slice): APR_GPU_STAGE_DUMP=/tmp/gpu-stages /mnt/.../release/apr parity \ /mnt/nvme-raid0/models/.../qwen2.5-coder-7b-instruct-q4k.gguf apr trace --save-tensor embedding,lm_head --save-tensor-dir \ /tmp/cpu-stages /mnt/.../qwen2.5-coder-7b-instruct-q4k.apr apr diff --values /tmp/cpu-stages/embedding.bin /tmp/gpu-stages/layer-0/embedding.bin apr diff --values /tmp/cpu-stages/lm_head.bin /tmp/gpu-stages/lm_head.bin # If lm_head diverges but embedding matches → bug is in transformer # stack (not output norm or LM head).

…w-major (was [K,N]); MODEL-1 → 100% (PMAT-CODE-SHIP-007-F32-GEMV-LAYOUT-FIX) §74 localized the SHIP-007 PARITY-GATE bug to f32_gemv_into via PR-B's stage-bisection scaffold (CPU vs GPU per-stage statistics analysis). The F32 GEMV PTX kernel was reading weights with TRANSPOSED layout interpretation: Bug: kernel assumed A is K-rows × N-cols row-major (A[i,j] at i*N+j), but actual ML weights are stored [output_dim=N, input_dim=K] row-major (A[i,j] at i*K+j per PyTorch/SafeTensors/GGUF convention and PMAT-333 F32 dequantization output). Symptom: GPU read transposed weights → computed y = A^T @ x instead of y = A @ x → systematically anti-correlated logits (cos=-0.005190 vs CPU, top-10 divergences all sign-flipped, CPU mean=-2.42 vs GPU mean=0.013).

The F32 GEMV PTX kernel was reading weights with TRANSPOSED layout interpretation: Bug: kernel assumed A is K-rows × N-cols row-major (A[i,j] at i*N+j), but actual ML weights are stored [output_dim=N, input_dim=K] row-major (A[i,j] at i*K+j per PyTorch/SafeTensors/GGUF convention and PMAT-333 F32 dequantization output). Symptom: GPU read transposed weights → computed y = A^T @ x instead of y = A @ x → systematically anti-correlated logits (cos=-0.005190 vs CPU, top-10 divergences all sign-flipped, CPU mean=-2.42 vs GPU mean=0.013).

Rationale: the static-readiness 0.9 cap reflects uncertainty about whether the harness actually proves anything; once CI runs `cargo kani` green (e.g. apr-cookbook PR #421's kani-gate), the runtime witness supplants the static signal. Schema change: KaniHarness gets `actually_verified: Option<bool>` (default None; back-compat with existing contracts). Scoring change: scoring::mod::strategy_weight() short-circuits to 1.0 when actually_verified == Some(true), before the strategy table lookup. Tests: - kani_actually_verified_lifts_bounded_int_to_full_score - kani_actually_verified_false_keeps_strategy_default Both pass; 1392 prior tests unaffected. Updates the explicit `KaniHarness { ... }` literal in gates_extended_tests.rs to include the new field (None). --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Engine support for the RoPE+GQA bits on the GPT-2 path is gated separately. YAML-only PR. Size variants from HF config.json (`bigcode/starcoder2-{3b,7b,15b}`): - 3b: hidden=3072 layers=30 heads=24 kv=2 inter=12288 - 7b: hidden=4608 layers=32 heads=36 kv=4 inter=18432 - 15b: hidden=6144 layers=40 heads=48 kv=4 inter=24576 All sizes share the 49152-token BigCode vocab and 16k context.

…1659) * fix(aprender-gpu): SHIP-007 PR-E — F32 GEMV PTX kernel reads [N,K] row-major (was [K,N]); MODEL-1 → 100% (PMAT-CODE-SHIP-007-F32-GEMV-LAYOUT-FIX) §74 localized the SHIP-007 PARITY-GATE bug to f32_gemv_into via PR-B's stage-bisection scaffold (CPU vs GPU per-stage statistics analysis). The F32 GEMV PTX kernel was reading weights with TRANSPOSED layout interpretation: Bug: kernel assumed A is K-rows × N-cols row-major (A[i,j] at i*N+j), but actual ML weights are stored [output_dim=N, input_dim=K] row-major (A[i,j] at i*K+j per PyTorch/SafeTensors/GGUF convention and PMAT-333 F32 dequantization output). Symptom: GPU read transposed weights → computed y = A^T @ x instead of y = A @ x → systematically anti-correlated logits (cos=-0.005190 vs CPU, top-10 divergences all sign-flipped, CPU mean=-2.42 vs GPU mean=0.013). Fix: rewrite the inner loop to iterate along the K dimension within row block_id: row_base = a_ptr + block_id * K * 4 thread reads A[block_id, t], A[block_id, t+32], ... instead of: col_base = a_ptr + block_id * 4 thread reads A[t, block_id], A[t+32, block_id], ...

Base completion models like qwen2.5-coder-0.5b (base, not instruct) carry the Qwen tokenizer — which includes ChatML special tokens in vocab — but should NOT be chat-wrapped. The over-trigger produced garbage-looking output for base models. Fix mirrors the GGUF path (GH-278): only wrap when the model actually has a `tokenizer.chat_template` in metadata, OR when filename hints `instruct` / `-chat`. Architecture and vocab-token heuristics removed. Reported in #1623 (the Coursera capstone investigation) — confirmed `apr run ...

…w-major (was [K,N]); MODEL-1 → 100% (PMAT-CODE-SHIP-007-F32-GEMV-LAYOUT-FIX) §74 localized the SHIP-007 PARITY-GATE bug to f32_gemv_into via PR-B's stage-bisection scaffold (CPU vs GPU per-stage statistics analysis). The F32 GEMV PTX kernel was reading weights with TRANSPOSED layout interpretation: Bug: kernel assumed A is K-rows × N-cols row-major (A[i,j] at i*N+j), but actual ML weights are stored [output_dim=N, input_dim=K] row-major (A[i,j] at i*K+j per PyTorch/SafeTensors/GGUF convention and PMAT-333 F32 dequantization output). Symptom: GPU read transposed weights → computed y = A^T @ x instead of y = A @ x → systematically anti-correlated logits (cos=-0.005190 vs CPU, top-10 divergences all sign-flipped, CPU mean=-2.42 vs GPU mean=0.013). Fix: rewrite the inner loop to iterate along the K dimension within row block_id: row_base = a_ptr + block_id * K * 4 thread reads A[block_id, t], A[block_id, t+32], ... instead of: col_base = a_ptr + block_id * 4 thread reads A[t, block_id], A[t+32, block_id], ...

… (#1660) * fix(aprender-gpu): SHIP-007 PR-E — F32 GEMV PTX kernel reads [N,K] row-major (was [K,N]); MODEL-1 → 100% (PMAT-CODE-SHIP-007-F32-GEMV-LAYOUT-FIX) §74 localized the SHIP-007 PARITY-GATE bug to f32_gemv_into via PR-B's stage-bisection scaffold (CPU vs GPU per-stage statistics analysis).

The `falsify_007_no_catch_all_ in_dispatch_sites` contract test's 30-line walk-back heuristic flagged this as a violation, even though the match was on `&str` (env var value), not on `WeightQuantType`. The probe was a bisection tool used to identify the bug location during §74. Now that §75 has shipped the actual fix and the probe is no longer needed, removing it cleans up the contract violation. The remaining PR-E change is solely the F32 GEMV PTX kernel layout fix in `crates/aprender-gpu/src/kernels/gemv/mod.rs` — that's the actual bug fix. Test verified: cargo test -p aprender-serve --lib \ quantize::contract_tests::tests::falsify_007_no_catch_all_in_dispatch_sites → 1 passed Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(rosetta): add NVIDIA Nemotron model-family contract (closes #1590) Adds `contracts/model-families/nemotron.yaml` so apr-cookbook architecture-demos flips Nemotron from `status: blocked` → covered. Nemotron-LM dense releases are Llama-derivative — Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B is an SFT/RLHF tune over meta-llama/Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct, and Nemotron-Mini-4B-Base / Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B are distilled Llama-style models. All use the standard `LlamaForCausalLM` tensor naming and GQA + RoPE + SwiGLU + RMSNorm constraints. `from_model_type("nemotron")` already returns `Architecture::Llama` (tensor_expectation.rs:142), so no engine change needed — YAML only. Size variants: - 4b (Nemotron-Mini-4B-Base — note 256k vocab, RoPE θ=10000) - 8b (Mistral-NeMo-Minitron-8B — 131k vocab, RoPE θ=10000) - 70b (Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B — 128k vocab, RoPE θ=500000) Verified: - `pv validate contracts/model-families/nemotron.yaml` → 0 errors - FALSIFY-PARITY-002 (`test_every_model_family_yaml_has_architecture`) passes. Out of scope: Nemotron-H (hybrid Transformer+SSM) and Nemotron-4 (uses distinct activation/norm) — separate architecture variants. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
