feat: add KV chunking support for XAttention softmax kernels

Browse Source 
Implement three-phase KV chunking for sparse attention estimation:
1. softmax_compute_partial_stats: compute (m, l) per KV chunk
2. merge_softmax_stats: merge partial stats on host
3. softmax_normalize_and_block_sum: normalize with global stats

This allows computing sparse attention masks without storing full
raw attention scores in GPU memory, reducing peak memory usage
from O(q_len * k_full_len) to O(q_len * k_chunk_len).

Key changes:
- Add softmax_partial_stats_kernel with causal mask support
- Add softmax_normalize_block_sum_kernel with kv_offset parameter
- Add Python wrappers for new kernels
- Update test script to validate KV chunking alignment
- Add documentation for the new kernels

Test results show perfect alignment with xattn_estimate API:
- Density difference: 0.000000
- Mask difference: 0.0044%

# XAttention KV Chunking Kernels
## 概述
本文档描述了支持 KV 维度分 chunk 的 softmax kernels 实现。这些 kernels 允许在 CPU offload 场景下，沿 KV 维度分块计算 sparse attention estimation，而不需要在 GPU 上保存完整的 raw attention scores。
## 背景
原始的 `softmax_fuse_block_sum` kernel 需要完整的 K 序列来计算正确的 softmax 归一化分母：
```
softmax(x_i) = exp(x_i) / Σ_j exp(x_j)
```
如果只有部分 K (KV chunk)，分母 `Σ_j exp(x_j)` 不完整，导致归一化错误。
## 解决方案：三阶段计算
通过将 softmax 计算拆分为三个阶段，实现正确的 KV chunking：
### 阶段 1: `softmax_compute_partial_stats`
计算每个 KV chunk 的 partial statistics：
- `m_partial`: 该 chunk 内的最大值 (per query row)
- `l_partial`: 该 chunk 内的 partial sum = Σ exp(x - m_partial)
```python
m_partial, l_partial = softmax_compute_partial_stats(
attn_weights_kv, # [batch, heads, q_len, k_chunk_len]
reshaped_block_size,
segment_size,
scale,
chunk_start=chunk_start,
kv_offset=kv_offset, # KV chunk 在完整序列中的偏移
is_causal=True,
)
# 输出: m_partial, l_partial 形状为 [batch, heads, q_len]
```
### 阶段 2: `merge_softmax_stats`
Host 端合并所有 KV chunks 的 statistics：
```python
m_global, l_global = merge_softmax_stats(m_chunks, l_chunks)
```
合并公式 (Online Softmax):
```
m_new = max(m_global, m_chunk)
l_new = l_global * exp(m_global - m_new) + l_chunk * exp(m_chunk - m_new)
```
### 阶段 3: `softmax_normalize_and_block_sum`
使用全局 statistics 归一化并计算 block sums：
```python
attn_sum_kv = softmax_normalize_and_block_sum(
attn_weights_kv, # [batch, heads, q_len, k_chunk_len]
m_global, # [batch, heads, q_len]
l_global, # [batch, heads, q_len]
reshaped_block_size,
segment_size,
chunk_start=chunk_start,
real_q_len=real_q_len,
scale=scale,
kv_offset=kv_offset,
is_causal=True,
)
# 输出: [batch, heads, q_blocks, k_chunk_blocks]
```
## 数学等价性证明
原始 softmax 计算 (完整 K):
```
softmax(x_i) = exp(x_i - m) / Σ_j exp(x_j - m)
```
分 KV chunk 计算:
```
Chunk 0: m_0 = max(x[0:N/2]), l_0 = Σ exp(x[0:N/2] - m_0)
Chunk 1: m_1 = max(x[N/2:N]), l_1 = Σ exp(x[N/2:N] - m_1)
合并:
m_global = max(m_0, m_1)
l_global = l_0 * exp(m_0 - m_global) + l_1 * exp(m_1 - m_global)
= Σ exp(x[0:N] - m_global) # 等于全局 sum
归一化:
softmax(x_i) = exp(x_i - m_global) / l_global # 正确!
```
## Causal Mask 处理
两个 kernel 都正确处理了 causal attention：
1. **`softmax_partial_stats_kernel`**: 通过 `kv_offset` 参数确定当前 KV chunk 在完整序列中的位置，正确计算 causal boundary
2. **`softmax_normalize_block_sum_kernel`**: 同样使用 `kv_offset`，对 causal boundary 之后的位置输出 0
## API 参考
### `softmax_compute_partial_stats`
```python
def softmax_compute_partial_stats(
attn_weights_slice: torch.Tensor, # [batch, heads, q_len, k_chunk_len]
reshaped_block_size: int,
segment_size: int,
scale: float,
chunk_start: int = 0, # Q chunk 起始位置 (reshaped space)
kv_offset: int = 0, # KV chunk 偏移 (reshaped space)
is_causal: bool = False,
) -> Tuple[torch.Tensor, torch.Tensor]:
"""返回 (m, l) partial stats"""
```
### `merge_softmax_stats`
```python
def merge_softmax_stats(
m_chunks: list, # List of [batch, heads, q_len] tensors
l_chunks: list, # List of [batch, heads, q_len] tensors
) -> Tuple[torch.Tensor, torch.Tensor]:
"""返回 (m_global, l_global)"""
```
### `softmax_normalize_and_block_sum`
```python
def softmax_normalize_and_block_sum(
attn_weights_slice: torch.Tensor, # [batch, heads, q_len, k_chunk_len]
m_global: torch.Tensor, # [batch, heads, q_len]
l_global: torch.Tensor, # [batch, heads, q_len]
reshaped_block_size: int,
segment_size: int,
chunk_start: int,
real_q_len: int,
scale: float,
kv_offset: int = 0,
is_causal: bool = False,
) -> torch.Tensor:
"""返回 block sums [batch, heads, q_blocks, k_chunk_blocks]"""
```
## 使用示例
```python
from nanovllm.ops.xattn import (
flat_group_gemm_fuse_reshape,
softmax_compute_partial_stats,
softmax_normalize_and_block_sum,
merge_softmax_stats,
find_blocks_chunked,
)
# 对每个 Q chunk
for q_chunk_idx in range(q_chunk_num):
Q_chunk = Q_padded[:, :, q_start:q_end, :]
# 阶段 1: 每个 KV chunk 计算 partial stats
m_chunks, l_chunks = [], []
attn_weights_chunks = []
for kv_chunk_idx in range(kv_chunk_num):
K_chunk = K_padded[:, :, kv_start:kv_end, :]
kv_offset = kv_chunk_idx * kv_chunk_size // STRIDE
# 计算 raw scores
attn_weights = flat_group_gemm_fuse_reshape(
Q_chunk, K_chunk, STRIDE,
chunk_start=chunk_start,
chunk_end=chunk_end,
is_causal=False, # K 不完整
)
attn_weights_chunks.append(attn_weights)
# 计算 partial stats
m, l = softmax_compute_partial_stats(
attn_weights, block_size, segment_size, scale,
chunk_start=chunk_start,
kv_offset=kv_offset,
is_causal=True,
)
m_chunks.append(m)
l_chunks.append(l)
# 阶段 2: 合并 stats
m_global, l_global = merge_softmax_stats(m_chunks, l_chunks)
# 阶段 3: 归一化并计算 block sums
block_sums_list = []
for kv_chunk_idx, attn_weights in enumerate(attn_weights_chunks):
kv_offset = kv_chunk_idx * kv_chunk_size // STRIDE
block_sums = softmax_normalize_and_block_sum(
attn_weights, m_global, l_global,
block_size, segment_size, chunk_start, real_q_len, scale,
kv_offset=kv_offset,
is_causal=True,
)
block_sums_list.append(block_sums)
# 拼接并选择 blocks
attn_sum = torch.cat(block_sums_list, dim=-1)
mask = find_blocks_chunked(attn_sum, ...)
```
## 性能对比
| 方面 | 原始实现 | KV Chunking 实现 |
|------|---------|-----------------|
| Kernel 数量 | 1 | 2 (stats + normalize) |
| Raw scores 读取次数 | 2 | 2 |
| 额外内存 | 0 | O(batch × heads × q_len × 2) for (m, l) |
| Host 计算 | 无 | merge stats (轻量) |
| **峰值显存** | O(q_len × k_full_len) | **O(q_len × k_chunk_len)** |
## 验证
测试脚本 `tests/test_xattn_estimate_alignment.py` 验证了 KV chunking 实现与原始 `xattn_estimate` API 的一致性：
```
| 方法 | density | 与 API 差异 | Mask 差异 |
|------|---------|-------------|-----------|
| xattn_estimate API | 0.159023 | - | - |
| KV chunking | 0.159023 | 0.000000 | 0.0044% |

Test: 验证 xattn_estimate 与底层 kernel 调用的一致性 Test: 验证 xattn_estimate 与 KV chunking kernels 的一致性
使用真实 KV cache 数据，分别调用: 使用真实 KV cache 数据，对比:
1. xattn_estimate (高层 API) 1. xattn_estimate (高层 API)
2. flat_group_gemm_fuse_reshape + softmax_fuse_block_sum + find_blocks_chunked (底层 kernels) 2. 三阶段 KV chunking (softmax_compute_partial_stats + merge + normalize)
底层 kernels 按 Q 分 chunk，与 xattn_estimate 内部逻辑一致，减少峰值内存占用。 三阶段 KV chunking 流程:
1. softmax_compute_partial_stats: 计算每个 KV chunk 的 (m, l)
2. merge_softmax_stats: Host 端合并所有 chunks 的 stats
3. softmax_normalize_and_block_sum: 使用全局 stats 归一化
