- Move create_ref_model to parallel/utils.py, accept executor+model directly
- Guard create_ref_model and sync_old_model against None on non-rank-0
- FSDP params are DTensors sharded across ranks
- torch.nn.utils.clip_grad_norm_ computes LOCAL norm only
- Each rank would clip by a different factor, causing gradient divergence
- Fix: compute local norm, all-reduce squared sum, sqrt for global norm

- Reduces per-step time by ~19% (1033ms to 839ms on 2xL20)
- Add __getstate__/__setstate__ to drop cached _compiled Jinja2 template
- Jinja2 Template.root_render_func is a dynamic closure unpicklable by reference

- TrainContext gains threading.Event-based stop_requested/request_stop
- Tests verify SIGTERM/SIGINT trigger checkpoint save with exit code 0, works on both CPU and GPU
- add loss_mask parameter to get_logprobs to decouple attention from loss masking
- DPO/GRPO strategies compose key-padding + causal mask before model forward
- prevents prompt tokens from being masked out of attention and missing causal masking

- delay scale multiplication to after dot-product in scalar prefill
- unify __expf/expf across MMA and scalar paths for consistent numerics
- harmonize divide-by-zero guards to 1e-20f

- Merge 3 duplicated dispatch blocks into single attn_dispatchers.cuh
- Merge compute_num_splits from attn_utils.cuh into dispatcher header

- JsonlStore falls back to built-in messages config when no config file found and tokenizer_path is provided
- DatasetFactory.load forwards tokenizer_path to store for SFT/SEQ+jsonl
- assistant turns train, other roles masked, position_ids doc_reset
- RolloutGenerator._instruction_to_messages builds system/user/assistant list (instruction->system, input->user, output->assistant), replacing single-user-turn concatenation
- Remove _iter_samples helper; _prepare_prompts zips parallel list-of-strings fields directly per the collate_fn contract
- Tests adopt a system-aware chat template and pin the three-field role mapping
- Drop unused imports caught by ruff F401 (torch.Tensor in scheduler.py, iter_raw_records in pipeline.py, Tuple in evaluate_rouge.py)
- train_context.py referenced non-existent cfg.batch_size, replaced with cfg.batch_per_device
- default group_size lowered from 8 to 1: without a group concept (DPO), scheduler batch equals batch_per_device; rollout-based DPO can opt in via extra_kwargs['group_size']>=2
- inline expressions (rollout_batch_size, max_seq_len) extracted for readability
- add tests/trainer/test_online_e2e.py: end-to-end online_dpo via Trainer.train, exercising KV-cache-backed rollout path

- module-level sample() becomes a thin forwarder instead of re-implementing the three-branch logic
- eliminates ~10 lines of duplicated softmax/gather code; no caller-facing API change
- RolloutGenerator now delegates prefill/decode to InferenceScheduler.run_batch (sync API, no background thread), sharing one KV-cache code path with the inference server and eliminating O(n^2) recompute in rollout
- Add sample(return_logprobs=) and Executor.execute_decode(return_logprobs=) to expose behaviour-policy log-probs through the engine; Task gains output_logprobs
- RolloutResult now subclasses RawRollout (adds rewards only), removing duplicated fields

- Tests: +11 covering return_logprobs, run_batch, and KV-cache-backed rollout semantics; 404 pass
- New FSDP2Executor registers as 'fsdp2' in ExecutorFactory, using per-module fully_shard() instead of FSDP1 FlatParameter wrapper
- FSDP2 preserves original Parameter objects as DTensors, eliminating use_orig_params=True hack
- FSDP2Executor implements _no_sync via set_requires_gradient_sync, clip_grad_norm via unshard, unwrap_model via DTensor.full_tensor
- Drop **_extra/**_ddp_only_kwargs fallbacks in BaseExecutor/FSDPExecutor/FSDP2Executor, replaced by parallel_mode-aware executor_kwargs dispatch in train.py (ddp-only kwargs only passed when parallel_mode=ddp)
- Export FSDP2Executor in astrai.parallel.__init__
- BaseExecutor.prepare now takes factories and instantiates model via model_fn(), runs before_wrap hook, wraps DDP/FSDP, then builds optimizer/scheduler on the wrapped model
- optimizer/scheduler creation moved into executor.prepare, eliminating the old 'create-then-wrap' hack reliance on use_orig_params=True
- FSDPExecutor/BaseExecutor accept **_extra kwargs to tolerate DDP-only keys (broadcast_buffers, gradient_as_bucket_view) being forwarded via executor_kwargs
- dataloader builds stay external; executor only handles model/optimizer/scheduler
- train_context.py rewritten to load checkpoint state_dict before prepare via a before_wrap closure
- Store owns window_size/stride and __getitem__/__len__/sample_window
- Dataset classes become thin delegators binding a Store to a train-type key mapping
- Drop BaseDataset.get_index and the RecordDataset中间类 (window死代码)
- DatasetFactory forces window_size=0 for record datasets so record semantics never get window-tainted

- Update tests to the new .store/.token_count API and window/record mode switching
- Drop BaseStrategy.model_fn (stored but never read)
- Drop model_fn= passed to StrategyFactory.create in train_context
- Simplify FSDPExecutor.clip_grad_norm None branch to delegate to super()
- Remove DDPExecutor._gather_state_dict override (identical to base)
- Extract shared core (mask building, primary-id extraction, tensorisation, position-id generation) to astrai/preprocessing/core.py; Pipeline and TokenizeTransform both consume it, eliminating ~60% duplicated logic
- Promote BFD _plan to module-level plan_bfd(lengths, max_len) returning pure index bins; BFDPacking.apply and evaluate_ifd._pack_bins both call it, removing the second BFD implementation
- Split Pipeline._flush (49 lines) into _inject_doc_reset_position_ids + _inject_continuous_position_ids + _to_tensors; split Pipeline.run by delegating record iteration to core.iter_raw_records
- Remove dead no-op pop/塞回 in Pipeline.run (L110-111)
- ChatTemplate: defer Jinja2 compilation to cached_property, exclude compiled template from __getstate__ (its dynamic root function has __module__=None and falls back to __main__, breaking pickle)
- AutoTokenizer: bypass __getattr__ for underscore-prefixed attrs to prevent infinite recursion during unpickle when __dict__ is empty
- TrainConfig.max_grad_norm defaults to None
- executor.clip_grad_norm returns grad norm without clipping when None

- Prompt rendered with add_generation_prompt=True
- Chosen/rejected appended as assistant turn
- Remove leftover dead code from _extract_text
- Update tests to mock apply_chat_template
- DPO requires sequence-level sum of token logprobs, not per-token mean
- mean reduction made beta*ratio_diff ~0.03 (near-zero gradient)
- loss stalled at 0.6931 because logsigmoid(0.03) has vanishing grad
- sum gives beta*ratio_diff ~10 with meaningful gradients
- load(store=...) binds directly, skipping format detection/processor
- load_path now optional when store is given
- Remove redundant from_store (merged into load)

- Per-task rep_window for penalty history lookup
- Wire through engine, task, executor, API layer
- Add --frequency_penalty and --rep_window to stream_chat.py
- 9 unit tests for frequency penalty strategy
- evaluate_mmlu: fix double few-shot injection (build_prompt no longer
adds few-shot, apply_chat handles it once)

of using first problem's n globally; reuse ProcessPoolExecutor across
problems; fix closure UnboundLocalError in test_one; handle None in
