- collapse FP8TensorMeta's 12 slots + 6 copy-paste methods into three _ScaleRing objects (hist/idx/scale/initialized + update/seed) - skip meta allocation entirely on the DynamicScaling path (zero rings, scales measured inline) - drop write-only FP8State._last_device and unused E4M3_MAX alias

"""FP8 training: scaling recipes, per-tensor state, and aten::linear dispatch.
|
|
|
|
Layered (see also ``ops/fp8.py`` for the CUDA interface adapter):
|
|
|
|
1. Kernel interface: ``ops.fp8`` — the only module touching the pybind.
|
|
2. Training state (this module): scaling *recipes* (TE-style delayed scaling
|
|
or dynamic current-amax scaling), per-tensor scales + amax history, and
|
|
the ``fp8_autocast`` context (like ``torch.autocast``).
|
|
3. aten::linear integration (this module): registers the CUDA impl and the
|
|
dtype guard.
|
|
|
|
Usage::
|
|
|
|
from astrai.extension.fp8 import fp8_autocast
|
|
|
|
with fp8_autocast(enabled=True, fp8_format="hybrid"):
|
|
logits = model(input_ids)
|
|
loss.backward() # fp8 backward runs wherever it is called: the
|
|
# forward captures the fmt/recipe/meta on the autograd node
|
|
|
|
Importing this module registers the aten::linear CUDA and AutogradCUDA
|
|
implementations.
|
|
|
|
Format defaults follow the ecosystem consensus: E4M3 for the forward pass,
|
|
E5M2 for the backward (gradient) pass ("hybrid"); every operand's scale is a
|
|
quantization step derived from its amax history by the active recipe.
