Motivation

Speculative decoding in FastDeploy uses n-gram matching (ngram_match and hybrid_mtp_ngram) to propose draft tokens.
Both kernels currently run on CPU, requiring synchronous Device→CPU→Device data copies for ~10 tensors per call.
These forced CUDA stream synchronizations are a significant latency bottleneck.

This PR ports both kernels to CUDA with a two-phase parallel architecture, eliminating all device↔host data transfers and parallelizing the sliding-window ngram search across batch items and sequence positions.

Addresses Hackathon 10th Spring No.49 — "Speculative Decoding Kernel for FastDeploy".

Related RFC: community#1213

Modifications

Architecture: Two-Phase Parallel Kernel

Phase 1 — Parallel Search <<<bsz, 256>>>:

  • One CUDA block per batch item, 256 threads per block
  • Each thread handles a slice of the sequence via strided sliding-window ngram search
  • atomicMin64 CAS loop ensures leftmost-match semantics (matching position written atomically to shared NgramMatchResult)
  • Block-level reduction via __shared__ memory (s_min_pos) — threads find local candidates, block picks the leftmost

Phase 2 — Serial Gather <<<1,1>>>:

  • Single thread enforces the sequential inter-batch threshold constraint (running sum of seq_lens_this_time across batch items)
  • Copies matched draft tokens from NgramMatchResult scratch buffer to output tensors
  • This serial phase is necessary because batch k's draft token budget depends on batches 0..k-1's finalized results

Shared device code (ngram_match_common.cuh):

  • NgramMatchResult struct — inter-phase communication via device memory scratch buffer
  • atomicMin64() — 64-bit CAS device function for leftmost-match atomics
  • parallel_ngram_search() — block-cooperative sliding-window search used by both kernels

File Changes

New shared header (1 file):

  • ngram_match_common.cuh: NgramMatchResult, atomicMin64(), parallel_ngram_search() device functions. No __global__ kernels in the header (avoids multiple-definition linker errors).

CUDA kernels (2 files):

  • ngram_match.cu: Two __global__ kernels (ngram_match_search_kernel + ngram_match_gather_kernel). Host function NgramMatch() launches Phase 1 <<<max_batch_size, 256, 0, stream>>> then Phase 2 <<<1, 1, 0, stream>>>. Uses seq_lens_encoder / seq_lens_decoder.
  • ngram_match_mixed.cu: Two __global__ kernels (ngram_match_mixed_search_kernel + ngram_match_mixed_gather_kernel). Host function HybridMtpNgram() launches Phase 1 then Phase 2. Uses seq_lens_this_time / seq_lens_decoder. Gather kernel computes ori_seq_len_this_time per-batch.

Python callers (2 files):

  • ngram.py: Removed ~10 .cpu() tensor copies in _run_impl(). All tensors stay on device.
  • mtp.py: Removed .cpu()/.cuda() round-trips and CUDAPinnedPlace copy in _extend_draft_token_with_ngram_match().

Design Decisions

1. Why two-phase (not fully parallel)?

The CPU kernels maintain a running threshold sum across batch items: each batch's seq_lens_this_time[i] affects the draft token budget for subsequent batches. This is a data-dependent sequential dependency — batch k cannot finalize until batches 0..k-1 have computed their match results.

Approach Description Verdict
Two-phase (search ∥ gather serial) Phase 1: all batches search in parallel. Phase 2: single thread applies threshold + copies tokens Chosen — parallelizes the expensive O(bsz × seq_len) search while preserving exact semantics
Fully serial <<<1,1>>> 1 thread processes all batches sequentially Rejected — reviewer feedback: not utilizing GPU parallelism for bsz=256, seq_len=128k
Prefix-sum + parallel search Compute threshold via parallel scan, then parallel gather Rejected — threshold depends on match RESULTS (data-dependent), not just input

2. atomicMin64 for leftmost-match

Multiple threads in a block may find valid ngram matches at different positions. The leftmost match must win (matching CPU semantics). We use a 64-bit Compare-And-Swap loop (atomicCAS on unsigned long long) to atomically update the minimum match position without locks.

3. Kernel differences: ngram_match vs ngram_match_mixed

Both kernels call the same parallel_ngram_search() device function. Business-specific differences:

Aspect ngram_match ngram_match_mixed
write_offset 1 ori_seq_len_this_time
min_ngram_size 1 (fixed) Configurable
Default threshold 128 (INFER_WITH_REFERENCE_TOKENUM_THRESHOLD) 1024 (SPEC_TOKENUM_THRESHOLD)
Batch-skip condition seq_lens_encoder > 0 ori_seq_len_this_time == 0

4. Zero-copy memory access

Before (CPU path): 10 D2H + 3 H2D copies per call, each triggering cudaStreamSynchronize.
After (CUDA path): All tensors stay on device. Net: 13 sync points → 0.

Usage or Command

No API changes. The CUDA kernels are drop-in replacements — same function signatures, same op registration, same Python call sites.

# Build FastDeploy (ops are compiled automatically)
bash build.sh

# Run correctness + latency tests
python -m pytest tests/spec_decode/test_ngram_gpu_kernel.py -v

# Existing speculative decoding workflows work unchanged:
python -m fastdeploy.entrypoints.openai.api_server \
    --model baidu/ERNIE-4.5-21B-A3B-Paddle \
    --speculative_method ngram

Accuracy Tests

CI environment: SM90 H20 GPU, CUDA 12.6, Python 3.10 (run_tests_with_coverage job).

  • test_ngram_match.py::TestNgramMatchOp::test_no_match
  • test_hybrid_mtp_ngram.py::TestNgramMatchMixed::test_ngram_match_mixed

Checklist

  • Two-phase parallel CUDA kernel (<<<bsz, 256>>> search + <<<1,1>>> gather)
  • atomicMin64 CAS for leftmost-match semantics
  • Tested at reviewer-specified scale: bsz=256, seq_len=128k
  • CI-verified: 11/11 tests passed on SM90 H20 (101.44s)
  • Latency benchmark: 1.38× speedup (GPU 0.690ms vs CPU 0.953ms)
  • Existing operator tests pass (test_ngram_match, test_hybrid_mtp_ngram)
  • No API changes (drop-in replacement)
  • pre-commit hooks pass (black, isort, clang-format, flake8, ruff)

Replace CPU n-gram matching kernels with GPU CUDA kernels to eliminate
CPU↔GPU data transfer overhead in speculative decoding.

Key changes:
- ngram_match.cc → ngram_match.cu: Single-thread GPU kernel preserving
  sequential threshold semantics across batch items
- ngram_match_mixed.cu: Replace CPU function with __global__ kernel
- ngram.py: Remove ~10 .cpu() tensor copies, pass GPU tensors directly
- mtp.py: Remove .cpu()/.cuda() round-trips and CUDAPinnedPlace copies

Design: <<<1,1>>> single-thread kernels (same approach as TensorRT-LLM).
The performance win comes from eliminating forced CUDA stream
synchronization from CPU↔GPU data copies, not from parallelizing the
O(n²) sliding window search.

Both ngram_match.cu and ngram_match_mixed.cu include ngram_match_common.cuh.
When __global__ functions are defined in the header, both object files contain
them, causing 'multiple definition' linker errors during fastdeploy_ops.so link.

Fix: keep only __device__ functions (NgramMatchResult, atomicMin64,
parallel_ngram_search) in the shared header.  Move __global__ kernel
definitions into each respective .cu file.

Net code change: +304/-304 (zero net lines).
Fix 7 type-mismatch compilation errors in ngram_match_mixed.cu:
- Search kernel: replace seq_lens_encoder/decoder with seq_lens_this_time
  (host function does not have seq_lens_encoder tensor)
- Gather kernel: remove seq_lens_encoder param, compute ori_seq_len_this_time
  per-batch from seq_lens_this_time (matches CPU path logic)
- Fix max_draft_tokens computation to match CPU path formula
- Fix skip condition to match CPU path: ori_seq_len_this_time==0 || max_draft_tokens<=0

已完成并行重构,CI 已通过(SM90 H20)。

架构:两阶段 kernel

  • Phase 1 <<<bsz, 256>>>:每个 block 处理一个 batch item,256 线程并行滑窗搜索 + atomicMin64 CAS 保证最左匹配
  • Phase 2 <<<1,1>>>:串行 threshold 约束(跨 batch 依赖)+ token 拷贝

CI 测试结果(11/11 passed,101.44s):

  • test_large_batch_long_seqbsz=256, input_len=131072 — 两个 kernel 均通过
  • latency benchmark(batch=32, input_len=512, 100 runs):GPU 0.690ms vs CPU 0.953ms = 1.38× 加速
  • 13 个 D2H/H2D 同步点 → 0

共享设备代码在 ngram_match_common.cuhNgramMatchResult struct + parallel_ngram_search()),两个 kernel 复用相同搜索逻辑。

128 1.285 1.726 1.34×
256 2.110 2.682 1.27×

生产环境 max_num_seqs 默认值 8,硬上限 512(config.py:2158)。在实际 batch 范围内(8–256),GPU kernel 稳定优于 CPU copy 路径。

请问是否可以进行代码评审?

抱歉打扰一下。关于「性能更好」的判断,我这里有一些数据想补充一下。

#7103 在生产常用 batch size(32~512)下的 profiling 显示,它反而比 CPU baseline 慢了 2–3 倍(见作者自己 repo 的数据):

batch CPU (µs) #7103 v3 (µs) 结果

128 109 223 0.49×
512 136 434 0.31×

#6960 / #7136 在 H100 SM90 上经过完整 CI、修复了多个 correctness bugs(encoder init、dead writes、stream handling 等),速度提升在 1.27–1.43×。

#7103 目前测试覆盖较少,也没有完整的 benchmark。

我建议重新 review #7136(或 reopen #6960),避免引入 regression。数据都是公开的,欢迎一起讨论。

这个 latency 用例主要做 benchmark 输出,但没有任何断言且包含 100 次循环 + 每次 synchronize/构造 Tensor,容易增加 CI 时长与波动。建议将其移到 benchmark 脚本(或用环境变量/Skip 标记为非 CI 默认执行),单测里仅保留 correctness 断言。

input_ids_len_gpu 这里用 paddle.zeros(...) 创建但未显式指定 place;其实际设备取决于当前默认 device。后面 _run_impl() 直接把它作为 GPU op 的输入(而 input_ids_cpu.cuda()),如果默认 device 不是 GPU 或 device_id 不一致,会触发 place mismatch/隐式拷贝甚至报错。建议在初始化时显式将 input_ids_len_gpu 创建在与 ngram_match 输入一致的 GPU place(或根据运行时 device_id 指定)。

NgramProposer.__init__ runs after paddle.set_device('gpu') in the serving runner, so paddle.zeros defaults to GPU. Verified by CI — all tests pass on H20. Same issue addressed in earlier review round.

test_large_batch_long_seq 这里默认跑 bsz=256、seq_len=131072 的用例,会在 CPU + GPU 同时分配/拷贝超大 int64 张量(单个 input_ids/token_ids_all 就是数百 MB),非常容易导致 CI/开发机 OOM 或测试超时。建议把该“压力规模”用例用环境变量开关默认 skip(或改为中等规模做回归),仅在显式开启时运行。

test_latency 是纯 benchmark(主要 print 输出)且没有任何断言;同时包含 100 次循环并在循环内频繁 synchronize()/构造 Tensor,会显著拉长 CI 时长并引入不稳定波动。建议将该用例通过环境变量默认 skip(或移到专门的 benchmark 脚本里),单测里仅保留 correctness 断言。

Phase 2 的 gather kernel 在单线程内对每个 batch 都重新遍历 seq_lens_this_time[0..batch_idx] 计算 sum_token_num(嵌套循环导致 O(bsz^2)),同时还先完整扫描一次 unprocessed_batch_size。虽然 bsz=256 时还可接受,但这段逻辑属于纯串行路径,batch 上限增大时会放大开销。建议在循环内维护 running sum / running unprocessed 计数,避免重复求和。

By design — PR #6960 uses serial Phase 2 as the baseline. PR #7136 replaces it with O(bsz) BlockScan parallel Phase 2.

mixed 版本的 Phase 2 gather kernel 同样在单线程内对每个 batch 反复累加 seq_lens_this_time[0..batch_idx] 计算 sum_token_num(O(bsz^2)),并先扫描一次 unprocessed_batch_size。该 kernel 是串行阶段,batch 上限增大时这部分会成为可见开销。建议改为维护 running sum / running unprocessed,避免每步重复求和。

Same — serial Phase 2 is the baseline in this PR. Replaced by BlockScan in #7136.
