Root cause 1 — CUDA_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS:
shmem_max_in_dim only included trunk dims (state_dim, shared_h1,
shared_h2) but not head dims (value_h, adv_h). BF16 weight tile
for branch output overflowed shared memory on RTX 3050 (48KB).
Root cause 2 — CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE on EMA kernel:
cudarc 0.17's automatic event tracking records read/write events on
CudaSlice buffers. During CUDA Graph capture (events disabled) then
replay (events re-enabled), stale write events from CudaSlice Drops
poison the context error_state. Next bind_to_thread() propagates it.
Fix: disable_event_tracking() at GpuDqnTrainer construction —
single-owner forked stream, all sync points are explicit.
Also:
- Remove all #[ignore] from smoke tests, use real ES.FUT .dbn data
- Validate DBN schema at file level (skip non-OHLCV)
- Organize test_data/ into per-symbol subdirectories
- Fix pre-existing gpu_kernel_parity_test + evaluate_baseline errors

Root cause: shmem_max_in_dim only included trunk dims (state_dim,
shared_h1, shared_h2) but not head dims (value_h, adv_h). When
hidden_dim_base=32 made the trunk narrow while heads stayed at 128,
the BF16 weight tile for branch output (255×128=32640 BF16 elements)
overflowed the shared memory region (12288 BF16 elements). On H100
the overflow landed in unused-but-mapped hardware shmem (silent
corruption). On RTX 3050 (48KB physical shmem) it hit unmapped
memory → CUDA_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS.
Changes:
- gpu_dqn_trainer.rs: shmem_max_in_dim includes value_h/adv_h
- Remove all #[ignore] from smoke tests (feature_coverage,
training_stability, gpu_residency)
- Smoke tests use real .dbn data from test_data/ (hard error if missing)
- Remove synthetic_data() fallback — no fake data in tests
- GPU-direct DtoD training path (train_step_gpu, FusedTrainScalars)
- GPU-native PER priority update kernel (zero CPU readback)
- IQN dual-head integration (gpu_iqn_head.rs)
- BF16 dtype fixes across 6 model adapters
- Hyperopt 30D→31D (iqn_lambda)
- portfolio_transformer: unconditional BF16 (remove dead CPU branches)
- liquid/adapter: all tests use Cuda(0) directly
- Fix pre-existing gpu_kernel_parity_test.rs (stale args)
- Fix pre-existing evaluate_baseline.rs (removed fields)

AutoReplaySizer inflated smoke test buffer_size=500 to 10M on H100 (75GB VRAM),
causing GPU PER empty-sample failures and multi-hour hangs. Root cause: the sizer's
100K minimum was always above the test buffer size, so the guard never triggered.
Fixes:
- constructor.rs: skip auto-sizing when buffer_size < 100K (sizer's own minimum)
- config.rs: insert_batch_tensors falls back to CPU PER (download + add_batch)
when GPU PER unavailable, instead of hard error
- train_step.rs: skip fused CUDA Graph init when GPU PER not active (stream
capture can't include CPU→GPU transfers from CPU PER sampling)
- dqn.rs: allow CPU tensor construction path on CUDA when GPU PER falls back;
remove hard errors in PER priority update (2 locations)
- metrics.rs: fix portfolio tensor shape (broadcast_left→expand for 2D concat);
add CPU PER fallback for Q-value statistics sampling
- agent.rs, entropy_regularization.rs: GPU-native Gumbel-max via Tensor::rand
(eliminates per-call CPU Vec allocation + GPU upload)
- smoke test helpers: defense-in-depth replay_buffer_vram_fraction = 0.0

nvcc (C++11 mode) parses `25f` as an attempt to use user-defined literal
suffix `f` instead of the standard float suffix. When V_MIN/V_MAX are
injected as integer-formatted values (e.g., `-25f` from Rust's Display
trait on f32), nvcc fails with "user-defined literal operator not found".
Fix: use `{v_min:.1}f` format to guarantee a decimal point (`-25.0f`),
which is unambiguously a float literal in all C++ standards.

Non-DQN kernels (curiosity, PPO, epsilon-greedy, backtest-PPO) include
common_device_functions.cuh but don't define SHARED_H1/SHARED_H2/VALUE_H/ADV_H.
The unguarded q_forward_dueling_warp_shmem() references these constants,
causing nvcc compilation failures (undefined identifiers + cascading
"user-defined literal operator not found" errors).
Wraps the function in #if defined(SHARED_H1) && defined(SHARED_H2) &&
defined(VALUE_H) && defined(ADV_H) ... #endif so it's only compiled
when the DQN architecture constants are injected.

The BF16 matvec helpers (warp_matvec_bf16_shmem, warp_matvec_bf16_broadcast_shmem)
call warp_reduce_sum_all which is defined later in the header. nvcc on H100
rejects this without a forward declaration — broke experience kernel compilation.

Remove ~850 lines of unreachable CPU fallback code from 3 hot-path files:
- hyperopt/dqn.rs: delete 250-line CPU backtest path (GPU eval mandatory)
- evaluate_baseline.rs: delete CPU PPO eval + non-CUDA fallback (147 lines)
- trainers/ppo.rs: delete 6 dead CPU rollout methods (~370 lines),
split train() into dispatcher + #[cfg(feature = "cuda")] train_gpu()
All .to_vec1() GPU hot-path guard violations eliminated.
GPU failures are now hard errors, not silent CPU fallbacks.

The backtest_forward_kernel.cu calls q_forward_dueling_warp_shmem but
it was defined in dqn_experience_kernel.cu — a different compilation unit.
Move the function, TILE_LAYER_WARP_CLEAN macro, SHMEM_MIN and DIST_SIZE
to common_device_functions.cuh so both kernels can use them.
Add #ifndef guards to all macros to prevent redefinition warnings.

The CI toolkit (CUDA 12.9, PTX ISA 8.7) requires:
1. cp.async.bulk needs .mbarrier::complete_tx::bytes completion mechanism
(mandatory since PTX ISA 8.3 / CUDA 12.3)
2. mbarrier.try_wait.parity.acquire needs .cta scope qualifier between
.acquire and .shared::cta
Reverts the DISABLE_TMA workaround — TMA now compiles natively to cubin.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The CI CUDA toolkit's ptxas fails on TMA instructions (cp.async.bulk)
with "completion_mechanism modifier required". Prepend #define DISABLE_TMA 1
in compile_ptx_for_device() so ALL kernel compilations (experience collector,
backtest evaluator, PPO collector, curiosity trainer, action selector) use
the float4 cooperative load fallback instead of TMA.

nvcc now produces cubin (native SASS) with -cubin -arch=sm_XX instead of
PTX with -ptx -arch=compute_XX. cuModuleLoad() loads SASS directly — zero
driver JIT. TMA instructions (cp.async.bulk on sm_90+) work natively because
nvcc handles them during offline compilation. Removed TMA fallback from
experience collector (double-compile + 15s retry overhead eliminated).

Cast all Tensor::full() / Tensor::from_vec() call sites to training_dtype
instead of defaulting to F32. Fixes dtype mismatch errors (BF16 vs F32)
in PPO training on CUDA:
- tensor_ops: scalar_mul, clamp, normalize match operand dtype
- trajectories: TrajectoryBatch/MiniBatch to_tensors cast to training dtype
- continuous_ppo: ContinuousTrajectoryBatch/MiniBatch to_tensors cast
- adaptive_entropy: cast entropy to F32 for alpha multiplication boundary
- continuous_policy: forward() input cast, Tensor::full scalars match dtype
- flow_policy: sample_base_noise cast to training dtype
- hidden_state_manager: reset tensors use training_dtype
- ensemble/ppo adapter: predict input cast to training dtype
- trainable_adapter: test uses training_dtype instead of hardcoded F32
Verified: 198/198 ml-ppo tests pass, 63/63 ml PPO tests pass.

- backtest_forward_kernel: dim_overrides must precede common_device_functions.cuh
which has #error guards requiring STATE_DIM/MARKET_DIM/PORTFOLIO_DIM to be
defined before inclusion. Experience collector already had correct ordering.
- Cap MAX_EPISODES from 8192→4096 (diminishing returns above 4096, wastes walltime)
- Cap trainer .min() from 0x8000 (32768) → 4096 to match

Fix BF16/F32 dtype mismatch in PpoStrategy and PpoLstmStrategy
validation adapters. Tensor::from_vec(Vec<f32>) creates F32 tensors,
but PPO networks use BF16 weights on H100. Cast state_tensor to
training_dtype() at the boundary before passing to network forward.
Fixes 4 ppo-lib failures on H100:
- test_ppo_strategy_train_and_evaluate
- test_ppo_strategy_reset
- test_ppo_lstm_strategy_train_and_evaluate
- test_ppo_lstm_strategy_reset

20 epochs × 64 episodes × 200 timesteps = ~62 min per test on H100
with GPU experience collector enabled. Reduce to 10 epochs (~31 min)
to leave headroom for the remaining test suites within the 120-min
workflow deadline. Assertions remain equivalent (5% loss reduction,
Q-value divergence, checkpoint round-trip, walk-forward validation).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The epsilon assertion expected <0.01 (epsilon=0.0 with noisy nets), but
the codebase evolved: noisy_epsilon_floor (0.05) now provides a minimum
exploration rate to prevent action collapse while NoisyNets handle the
primary learned exploration. Updated assertions to match: epsilon < 0.10.
Also reduced pipeline test epochs (10→5, 20→10) to prevent GPU timeout
when 5 concurrent DQN trainers share one H100.

DefaultHasher (SipHash) uses random per-process keys — the PTX cache
would never hit across separate cargo test runs. Switch to SHA-256
(deterministic) so cached PTX persists on the PVC across CI runs.
Also extend activeDeadlineSeconds from 90min to 120min to accommodate
the one-time cold-start NVRTC compilation (30+ min for the fused
experience collector kernel).

The fused DQN experience collector kernel (4490 lines: branching +
C51 + NoisyNets + fill sim + DSR + N-step) takes 30+ minutes to
compile via NVRTC on H100. This adds a PTX disk cache keyed by
SHA-256(arch, source) in $CARGO_TARGET_DIR/.ptx_cache/ (CI PVC).
Cold start pays the NVRTC cost once; all subsequent runs with
identical source + dimensions load cached PTX in <100ms.
Cache invalidates automatically when kernel source or network
dimensions change (different hash → cache miss → recompile).

The fused NVRTC kernel (branching+C51+NoisyNets+DSR+fill-sim) takes
30+ min to compile at runtime on H100, causing CI tests to hit the

7 tests call train_step() via CPU experience replay, but with the cuda

The stability penalty (15% of PSO objective) was dead weight:
- Gradient norm threshold of 20,000 NEVER fires because gradient
clipping is at 10.0 and avg raw grad norms are typically 5-50.
- Q-value std threshold of 100 rarely fires with DSR and v_range=[10,50].
Fix: log-scale ramp for gradient (threshold=50, cap=3.0) gives smooth
PSO gradient across the 50→5000 range where clip engagement indicates
instability. Linear ramp for Q-std (threshold=15, cap=3.0).
Also: delete unused smooth_transition() + calculate_exponential_sharpe_incentive()
(-160 lines dead code), fix stale docstring on HFT activity fn args.

MARKET_DIM was set to feature_dim (50 with OFI) but semantically means
raw market feature count (42). The forward kernel doesn't use MARKET_DIM
directly, but the common header requires it. Subtract ofi_dim to get
the correct value: 50 - 8 = 42.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The OFI backtest path used a Candle narrow+cat closure for state
permutation: [market, OFI, portfolio, pad] → [market, portfolio, OFI, pad].
This was the LAST remaining Candle dispatch in the GPU backtest hot path,
causing per-step tensor allocations and Python-like dispatch overhead.
Fix: added ofi_dim parameter to gather_states kernel. When ofi_dim > 0,
the kernel writes [market, portfolio, OFI, pad] directly — zero extra
copies, zero Candle overhead. Both OFI and non-OFI paths now use
evaluate_dqn_graphed() (pure-CUDA forward + CUDA Graph acceleration).
The DQN hyperopt adapter sets ofi_dim=8 when OFI features are detected.
Other callers (PPO, signal adapter) inherit ofi_dim=0 from Default.
Net result: entire GPU backtest evaluation is now Candle-free.

unique_actions was hardcoded to 5 in the GPU backtest path, making the
diversity penalty (0.8 max weight) always return 0.0 — another dead
objective component. CPU backtest path correctly computed it via HashSet.
Added 5-bit bitmask OR-reduction: each thread sets bit(action_id) during
the existing per-step loop, then a single OR-reduction across the block
produces the union. __popc() gives unique count in one PTX instruction.
Memory efficiency: reuses s_sorted shared memory (sequential staging —
OR-reduction completes before bitonic sort overwrites it). No extra
shared memory arrays needed. Output expanded from 13→14 floats/window.
Combined with the previous commit, this restores gradient signal for
100% of the multi-objective function: composite (60%), HFT activity
(25%), stability (15%), and diversity penalty (soft signal).

The metrics CUDA kernel already iterated over actions_history for trade
counting but never counted buy/sell/hold distribution. evaluate_gpu()
hardcoded all three to 0.0, making calculate_hft_activity_score_wave10()
return a constant -5.0 for every trial — PSO searched blind for 25% of
the objective space.
Kernel: 3 new shared-memory reduction arrays (s_buys/s_sells/s_holds),
action counting in existing per-step loop (0,1→sell, 2→hold, 3,4→buy),
output expanded from 10→13 floats/window. Zero extra kernel launches,
zero extra GPU→CPU transfers (piggybacks on existing memcpy_dtoh).
Shared memory: 25 KB (was 22 KB) — well within H100 228 KB/SM limit.

Replace closure-based evaluate() with evaluate_dqn_graphed() for non-OFI
walk-forward backtest path. Extracts DuelingWeightSet from VarMap (branching
or standard dueling) and runs hand-written warp-cooperative CUDA forward
kernel with CUDA Graph capture — zero Candle dispatch overhead per step.
Key changes:
- GpuBacktestEvaluator::stream() getter for weight extraction on eval stream
- DQNAgentType::is_using_branching() / network_dims() for CUDA kernel config
- Hyperopt evaluate_gpu() non-OFI path: extract_dueling_weights_branching()
→ evaluate_dqn_graphed() (CUDA Graph accelerated)
- OFI path: retains Candle closure for state permutation (gather kernel
layout mismatch — future CUDA permutation kernel)
- 66+ GPU hot-path violations hardened to hard errors across DQN/PPO/supervised
- Stripped all gpu-ok suppression comments
- Proper #[cfg(feature = "cuda")] gating for CUDA-only code paths

Eliminate all CPU fallback paths in the PPO trainer, PPO hyperopt
adapter, and DQN hyperopt adapter. On H100, every GPU operation must
succeed or abort — silent CPU fallback runs at 1/10th throughput and
produces stale/inconsistent results.
PPO trainer (5 sites):
- GPU unavailable → hard error (was warn + CPU fallback)
- Collector init, episode reset, collection, weight sync → hard errors
- Test updated: GPU batch limit test expects error without CUDA
PPO hyperopt adapter (8 sites):
- ensure_gpu_data() now returns Result<(), MLError>
- Features/targets upload, collector init, weight sync → hard errors
- gpu_collect_trajectories() now returns Result<TrajectoryBatch>
- Experience collection caller uses ? instead of Option fallback
- GPU backtest failure → hard error
DQN hyperopt adapter (3 sites):
- CUDA synchronize between trials → hard error
- GPU backtest None on CUDA → hard error (upstream of extract_objective)
- extract_objective: panic! on CUDA build if backtest_metrics is None
- CPU backtest path guarded by #[cfg(not(feature = "cuda"))]
continuous_ppo.rs (1 site):
- clip_grads passed &Device::Cpu instead of actor's actual device
- Forces CPU roundtrip for gradient norm computation on every mini-batch
- Fixed: passes `device` (from self.actor.device()) — stays GPU-resident
gpu_experience_collector.rs (1 site):
- cuCtxSetLimit(STACK_SIZE) failure: warn → hard error
- 16KB stack is required — kernel segfaults without it
