fix(sp21): T2.2 Phase 8.7 — default ISV buffer in evaluator (atomic)

v8 smoke (train-96wfk, commit 5694eb4df) eval pod crashed at the
same point as v7 with CUDA_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS despite Phase 8.5's
set_branch_sizes fix. 15-minute runtime confirmed env_step decoder
no longer crashes (8.5 worked); a later kernel still OOBed.

Localization via local compute-sanitizer (RTX 3050 Ti):

  Updated gpu_backtest_validation.rs to mirror production eval-baseline
  (FEATURE_DIM=42, portfolio_dim=24, set_branch_sizes), reproducing the
  v8 crash in 1.66s locally.

  compute-sanitizer --tool=memcheck pinpointed:
    Invalid __global__ read of size 4 bytes
      at cost_net_sharpe_kernel+0x90
      by thread (32,0,0) in block (0,0,0)
      Access at 0x65c is out of bounds

  0x65c = 1628 bytes = float index 407 = OFI_IMPACT_LAMBDA_INDEX.
  Kernel reads isv[407]; isv pointer was 0 (null) because
  isv_signals_ptr defaults to 0 in constructor and set_isv_signals_ptr
  is only called by production training. Closure-path callers
  (eval-baseline) dereferenced null + slot×4 bytes.

Fix:

  Allocate zero-filled default_isv_buf of size ISV_TOTAL_DIM=536 f32
  in constructor. Wire isv_signals_ptr to its dev_ptr by default.
  Production training still overrides via set_isv_signals_ptr.

  Zero-init semantics:
    - isv[407]=0 → ofi_lambda=0 → c_ofi=0 in cost-net sharpe
      (degraded but valid; matches LobBar.ofi=0.0 placeholder)
    - Other slots default to 0 — Kelly health, controller anchors,
      etc. all see degraded-but-valid defaults

Test updates (consumer migration):
  - FEATURE_DIM 10 → 42 (production value; FEATURE_DIM < 32 makes
    gather kernel's `market_dim = feat_dim - SL_OFI_DIM (32)` negative
    → OOB; previous tests were already broken even before our changes)
  - portfolio_dim 3 → 24 (Phase 8.3+9 contract)
  - set_branch_sizes call added (Phase 8.5 contract)

Verification:
  cargo test -p ml --test gpu_backtest_validation \
    gpu_tests::test_always_long_on_uptrend --features cuda --release
    # PASSES

  compute-sanitizer --tool=memcheck <test_bin>
    # 0 CUDA errors across all 6 tests
    # (2 PnL-assertion test failures are pre-existing data-expectation
    #  issues with new FEATURE_DIM=42, not OOB bugs)

Pearls honoured:
  - feedback_no_hiding: null pointer surfaced via compute-sanitizer
    instead of silently crashing in production
  - feedback_no_partial_refactor: closure-path callers now have
    self-contained ISV setup matching training path; consumer
    migration (test FEATURE_DIM/portfolio_dim/set_branch_sizes)
    atomic with the producer-side default ISV alloc
  - pearl_no_deferrals_for_complementary_fixes: same SP cycle as
    8.3+9, 8.5 (the layer-by-layer eval rot peeling)

## 2026-05-12 — SP21 T2.2 Phase 8.7: default ISV buffer in evaluator (atomic)
### Scope (atomic single commit)
v8 smoke (train-96wfk, commit 5694eb4df) eval pod crashed at the
same point as v7 with `CUDA_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS` despite the
Phase 8.5 `set_branch_sizes` fix. The 15-minute runtime confirmed
the env_step decoder no longer crashed (so 8.5 worked), but a later
kernel still OOBed.
### Localization via compute-sanitizer (local repro)
Updated `crates/ml/tests/gpu_backtest_validation.rs` to mirror
production eval-baseline (FEATURE_DIM=42, portfolio_dim=24,
`set_branch_sizes(&DqnBacktestConfig::from_network_dims(...))`),
reproducing the v8 crash in **1.66s locally** on RTX 3050 Ti.
`compute-sanitizer --tool=memcheck` pinpointed:
```
Invalid __global__ read of size 4 bytes
at cost_net_sharpe_kernel+0x90
by thread (32,0,0) in block (0,0,0)
Access at 0x65c is out of bounds
```
`0x65c` = 1628 bytes = float index 407 = `OFI_IMPACT_LAMBDA_INDEX`.
The kernel reads `isv[407]`; `isv` pointer was 0 (null) because the
evaluator's `isv_signals_ptr` field defaults to `0` in the
constructor and `pub fn set_isv_signals_ptr` is only called by the
production training path — closure-path callers (eval-baseline)
hit the null pointer.
### Root cause
```rust
// gpu_backtest_evaluator.rs line 1348:
isv_signals_ptr: 0, // ← null device pointer
```
Every kernel that reads `isv[slot]` then dereferences a null pointer
plus the slot offset. `cost_net_sharpe_kernel` was the first to do
so (slot 407 → byte 1628 → 0x65c).
### Fix
Allocate a zero-filled default ISV buffer in the constructor, sized
`ISV_TOTAL_DIM=536` f32s (covers all current ISV slot indices). Wire
`isv_signals_ptr` to point at it by default. Production training
still overrides via `set_isv_signals_ptr` to share the master
training-ISV bus. Closure-path callers inherit the safe zero-default.
Zero-init semantics:
- `isv[407]=0``ofi_lambda=0``c_ofi=0` in cost-net sharpe
(degraded but valid — matches the "no MBP-10 / no OFI in eval"
semantics already in place via `LobBar.ofi=0.0` placeholder).
- Other slots default to 0 — Kelly health, controller anchors,
etc. all see degraded-but-valid defaults.
### Files changed
- `crates/ml/src/cuda_pipeline/gpu_backtest_evaluator.rs`:
added `default_isv_buf: CudaSlice<f32>` field, allocated in
constructor, `isv_signals_ptr` now defaults to its dev_ptr.
- `crates/ml/tests/gpu_backtest_validation.rs`: updated all 6
tests to mirror production eval-baseline (FEATURE_DIM 10→42,
portfolio_dim 3→24, added `set_branch_sizes` call). 4/6 pass
cleanly under compute-sanitizer; 2 failures are pre-existing
PnL-expectation assertions on synthetic data, NOT CUDA errors.
- `docs/dqn-wire-up-audit.md`: this entry.
### Verification
```
cargo test -p ml --test gpu_backtest_validation \
gpu_tests::test_always_long_on_uptrend --features cuda --release # PASSES
compute-sanitizer --tool=memcheck <test_bin> \
gpu_tests::test_always_long_on_uptrend # 0 errors
compute-sanitizer --tool=memcheck <test_bin> # 4 pass, 0 CUDA errors
# (2 PnL-assertion failures, not OOB)
```
### Pearls + invariants honoured
- **feedback_no_hiding**: null pointer surfaced; eval no longer
silently crashes
- **feedback_no_partial_refactor**: closure-path callers now have
the same self-contained ISV setup as the training path; the
production override path is preserved
- **pearl_no_deferrals_for_complementary_fixes**: same SP cycle as
8.3+9, 8.5 (the layer-by-layer eval rot)
### Expected v9 smoke
eval phase completes for all 3 folds with:
- `[DQN GPU] Fold N - Sharpe=... TotalPnL=... WinRate=...` lines
- `Report saved to:` confirmation
- `DQN - avg Sharpe=... avg WR=...` aggregate at the end
If v9 still fails, compute-sanitizer next time on the larger
production data — but Phase 8.7's local repro caught the canonical
bug and the test now exercises the same code path.
