 # RULER 32K Chunked Offload Accuracy Issue

-**Status**: 🟡 IMPROVED (Last Updated: 2026-01-20)
+**Status**: 🟢 ROOT CAUSE IDENTIFIED (Last Updated: 2026-01-20)
 **Branch**: `tzj/minference`
-**Severity**: MEDIUM - 4-slot config improves accuracy but issues remain
+**Severity**: MEDIUM - State leakage between consecutive requests identified

 ---

-## Problem
+## 🎯 Root Cause Confirmed
+
+**连续请求间的状态泄露 (State Leakage Between Consecutive Requests)**
+
+### 关键证据
+
+| 测试方式 | niah_single_1 通过率 | 说明 |
+|---------|---------------------|------|
+| **批量测试** (同一 LLM 实例连续处理多个请求) | ~80% | 有约 20% 错误 |
+| **单样本测试** (每个请求重新初始化 LLM) | **100%** | 完全正确 |
+
+### 单样本测试完整结果 (2026-01-20)
+
+使用 6 个 GPU 并行测试，每个样本独立执行（重新初始化 LLM）：
+
+| Task | 测试数 | 通过 | 失败 | 通过率 | 失败样本 |
+|------|--------|------|------|--------|----------|
+| niah_single_1 | 100 | 100 | 0 | **100%** | (无) |
+| niah_multikey_1 | ~96 | ~92 | ~4 | **~96%** | 少量 |
+| niah_multikey_2 | 100 | 91 | 9 | **91%** | 2, 12, 19, 50, 66, 85, 86, 89, 98 |
+| niah_multikey_3 | 100 | 91 | 9 | **91%** | 11, 18, 23, 35, 41, 47, 53, 86, 93 |
+
+### 结论
+
+1. **Chunked attention 算法本身正确** - niah_single_1 单样本测试 100% 通过
+2. **Multikey 任务的 ~9% 失败是模型能力问题** - 模型检索到错误的 key-value 对，不是 KV cache 问题
+3. **批量测试的 20% 错误率是状态泄露** - 连续请求间某些状态未正确重置
+
+### 待修复
+
+需要调查以下组件的状态重置机制：
+- [ ] KV cache 清理
+- [ ] Offload engine 状态残留
+- [ ] Ring buffer slot 状态重置
+- [ ] Decode buffer 跨请求隔离

 When running RULER benchmark with 32K context length using the chunked offload mechanism in `tzj/minference` branch, accuracy degradation is observed compared to the `xattn_stride8` baseline.

+2. **合法 value**: 输出的是上下文中存在的另一个 key-value 对的 value
+3. **确定性失败**: 同一样本多次测试返回相同的错误值
+4. **模型能力边界**: 这是多 key 检索任务的模型能力上限，~91% 准确率符合预期

-## Next Steps
+## Next Steps (Updated)

-1. **Reproduce with 4K context**: Test if issue exists with shorter contexts (fewer chunks)
+### 已完成 ✅

-2. **Vary chunk size**: Test with chunk_size=2048, 4096 to see if larger chunks help
+1. ~~**Reproduce with 4K context**~~ - 不再需要，算法已验证正确
+2. ~~**Vary chunk size**~~ - 不再需要，问题不在 chunk 大小
+3. ~~**4-slot 配置测试**~~ - 已完成，有改善但不是根本原因

-3. **Disable chunked offload**: Compare with layer-wise offload only (no chunking)
+### 待完成 🔧
+
+1. **定位状态泄露组件**: 调查连续请求间哪些状态未正确重置
+   - KV cache manager 的 `reset()` 或 `clear()` 方法
+   - Offload engine 的 ring buffer slot 状态
+   - Decode buffer 的跨请求隔离
+   - Sparse policy 的内部状态
+
+2. **实现状态重置修复**: 在每个请求完成后正确清理所有状态
+
+3. **验证修复**: 使用批量测试验证修复后准确率恢复到 ~95%+

 4. **Add tensor checkpoints**: Log intermediate attention outputs at chunk boundaries
