Force cudarc's is_managing_stream_synchronization() to false.
Eliminates ALL internal event tracking (cuStreamSynchronize,
cuEventRecord, cuStreamWaitEvent) that was adding 18.7 syncs/step.
All stream synchronization is managed manually via raw_launch events.

Replace isv_d CudaSlice with isv_mapped MappedF32Buffer. GPU writes
via dev_ptr, host reads via host_ptr. Zero copies, zero syncs.
Same for 4 loss accumulators (q/pi/v/frd).
Delete: isv_host Vec, isv_staging, loss_staging, loss_dtod_done_event,
all DtoD copies for ISV/losses, all event record/sync for losses.

Replace isv_d CudaSlice with isv_mapped MappedF32Buffer. GPU writes
via dev_ptr, host reads via host_ptr. Zero copies, zero syncs.
Same for 4 loss accumulators (q/pi/v/frd) and 2 entropy accumulators.
Delete: isv_host Vec, isv_staging, frd_loss_staging, scalar_staging,
loss_staging_3, loss_dtod_done_event, all DtoD copies for ISV/losses,
all event record/sync for losses.
ISV is ~2.3KB, losses are 24B — PCIe bandwidth penalty negligible.
Mapped-pinned dev_ptr is stable → CUDA graph capture unaffected.
External head methods (DqnHead, PolicyHead, ValueHead, FrdHead)
changed from &CudaSlice<f32> to &u64 for ISV/loss device pointers —
.arg(&u64) pushes the same 8-byte CUdeviceptr as .arg(&CudaSlice).

Replace all cudarc graph.launch(), event.record/synchronize(),
stream.wait(), and memset_zeros in the hot path with direct CUDA
driver API calls. Eliminates cudarc's internal bind_to_thread +
event tracking overhead (~200us per call x ~40 calls/step).
Steady-state hot path is now zero cudarc calls:
- 4x graph.launch() → raw_graph_launch (cuGraphLaunch)
- 1x event.synchronize() → raw_event_sync (cuEventSynchronize)
- 5x event.record() → raw_event_record (cuEventRecord)
- 4x stream.wait() → raw_stream_wait_event (cuStreamWaitEvent)
- 28x memset_zeros → raw_memset_d8_zero (cuMemsetD8Async)
Also removed 36 redundant memset_zeros inside training graph
capture — backward kernels overwrite every element, so these
burned memset bandwidth on every graph replay for zero benefit.

Async loss readback via loss_dtod_done_event — zero syncs in steady-
state step. Return previous step's cached stats (one-step delay).
DtoDs complete by stream ordering before next step's event wait.

Replace 15 CudaSlice device_ptr() calls (each triggers cudarc event
tracking) with direct raw_ptr() u64 reads. Zero CUDA driver overhead

Replace -cubin -arch=sm_XX with -fatbin -gencode for all 3 GPU archs.
All include_bytes! paths updated from .cubin to .fatbin. Removes
CUDA_COMPUTE_CAP env var dependency. cuModuleLoadData transparently
selects the right arch from the fat binary at runtime.
Fixes CUDA_ERROR_NO_BINARY_FOR_GPU on H100 (sm_90).

Cache all hot-path device pointers as raw u64 in HotPathPtrs struct at
trainer init. Replaces 9 device_ptr()/device_ptr_mut() calls (each
triggers cudarc event wait+record → cuStreamSynchronize) with direct
u64 reads from the cached struct.
Affected call sites:
- ISV staging DtoD (step_synthetic)
- Batched loss readback: pi/Q/V/FRD DtoD copies (step_synthetic)
- h_t→h_tp1 encoder DtoD copy (step_with_lobsim)
- trade_context/multires_output ptr pass to perception encoder
All pointers are stable (buffers pre-allocated at init, never
reallocated). Utility functions (read_slice_d, write_slice_f32_d, etc.)
retain device_ptr() as they operate on arbitrary caller-provided buffers
and each already does its own stream sync.

All unconditional. No feature flags. ISV controls magnitudes.
PopArt normalize replaces apply_reward_scale in step_with_lobsim,
with V-correct on v_pred_d and v_pred_tp1_d. Spectral norm runs
one power iteration per step on DQN/IQN/policy weight matrices
after each Adam step in dqn_replay_step. Spectral decouple adds
lambda*mean(logits^2) penalty to Q and pi loss in step_synthetic.
K=3 outcome classifier forward+CE loss runs each step; labels
assigned from reward/done signals. Q-bias correction tracks
mean(Q - return) and emits correction to ISV. Per-branch LR
controller adjusts per-head LR scale factors from loss deltas.
ISV slots 553-572 bootstrapped. Per-branch LR kernel ABI fixed:
current losses passed as args (eliminates slot 572-575 collision
with RL_OUTCOME_AUX_LAMBDA_INDEX).

Replace 3 read_slice_d calls (each allocs+frees MappedF32Buffer) and
4 read_scalar_d calls with pre-allocated persistent isv_staging,
frd_loss_staging, and scalar_staging buffers. Deletes the now-unused
read_scalar_d function.
Eliminates ~20 cuMemHostAlloc + ~20 cuMemFree per step from the hot
path. GPU completes all kernels in 160us/step — host overhead was 14ms.
Target: <1ms host overhead at b=256.

Backward HER: on trade close, injects synthetic with peak PnL if
peak > 1.5× actual. Forward HER: evaluates closed trades after 50
steps, injects if holding would have been better.
ISV bootstrap: threshold=1.5, priority_boost=3.0, lookahead=50.

rl_hindsight_track: per-step mid accumulation + peak tracking.
rl_hindsight_inject: backward HER on done, prefix-sum replay write.
rl_hindsight_forward: forward HER after lookahead, prefix-sum write.
No atomicAdd.

PER sample, update_priority, and tree_rebuild run on a dedicated
train_stream. The env-step pipeline (encoder through push_flush)
runs on the main stream. Sync points:
1. Top of step_with_lobsim: train_stream.synchronize() ensures
previous step's priority/rebuild completed before push touches
the replay buffer.
2. Before K-loop: stream.synchronize() ensures push_flush is done
before train_stream's rl_per_sample reads the replay buffer.
3. After rl_per_sample: train_stream.synchronize() ensures sampled_*
buffers are written before step_synthetic/dqn_replay_step reads
them on the main stream.
4. After dqn_replay_step (k>0 path): stream.synchronize() ensures
td_per_sample_d is written before train_stream's priority update.
(step_synthetic already syncs internally.)
The last K-iter's priority update + tree rebuild are NOT synced at
step end — they overlap with the next step's encoder forward on the
main stream, hiding ~1ms of PER maintenance.

Replace write_slice_i32_d_pub (sync + alloc + DtoD) with persistent
MappedI32Buffer staging. Host writes to host_ptr, async DtoD to
frd_labels_d on the train stream — zero sync, zero alloc per step.
Also: make stream field pub for external DtoD access.

Replace 3 sequential 128-float copy loops with 32 float4 vectorized

Expanded DiagStaging with 8 more fields (position_lots, pyramid_count,
unit_entry_price, unit_entry_step, unit_lots, unit_trail,
close_unit_index, frd_logits). Eliminates 36 stream syncs per step
that consumed 90.9% of CUDA API time per nsys profile. unit_active
derived from unit_lots != 0 on host (avoids u8-to-f32 DtoD mismatch).

The old host replay.len() was replaced with 0usize during T1 cleanup.
GPU PER is working fine — just not reporting its length in the diag.

DiagStaging runs DtoD copies on a separate CUDA stream — zero stalls
on the training pipeline. Double-buffered mapped-pinned: host reads
previous step's data while current step's copies run concurrently.
Replaces 7 blocking read_slice_d calls (ISV, rewards, dones, actions,
raw_rewards, trade_duration, outcome_ema) with async staging reads.
One-step delay on diag data (acceptable for diagnostics).

Replaces todo!() stubs with kernel launches. GpuReplayBuffer field,
4 cubin loads, full per-step pipeline:
1. rl_per_push after reward extraction (n-step + circular write)
2. rl_per_sample in K-loop (tree walk + gather to sampled_*_d)
3. rl_per_update_priority + tree_rebuild after step_synthetic
Zero host-side PER operations. Per feedback_cpu_is_read_only.

Backward-looking HER: on trade close, compute peak unrealized PnL
during the trade's lifetime. If peak >> actual, inject synthetic
transition with peak_pnl and boosted priority. Teaches the agent
optimal wave-exit timing 10× faster than sparse reward alone.
Two kernels: rl_hindsight_track (per-step mid accumulation) and
rl_hindsight_inject (synthetic push on done with coordination).

4 kernels for all-device prioritized experience replay:
- rl_per_push: n-step accumulation + single-block prefix-sum for
write_head coordination (no atomicAdd)
- rl_per_sample: stratified proportional sampling via top-down
sum-tree walk with xorshift32 PRNG + inline gather
- rl_per_update_priority: write |TD|^α to leaves + shared-mem
block-wide max reduction
- rl_per_tree_rebuild: bottom-up parallel scan with __threadfence
between levels (15 passes for capacity=32768, no atomics)

trail_distance was computed from mean_abs_pnl (scaled reward space)
but compared against mid-entry (price space). At reward_scale=0.0024,
the trail was 0.002 price units = effectively zero, causing immediate
trail-stop on every trade regardless of min_hold.
Fix: divide by reward_scale to recover price-space magnitude:
trail = k_init × (mean_abs_pnl / reward_scale)
This gives trail ≈ 0.8 ticks at k_init=2.0 — reasonable for ES.
avg_hold should now respect min_hold (100 steps) since trail stops
won't fire on the first tick.

- --diag-every N (default 100): skip device readback on non-diag steps.
Eliminates ~10 stream.sync per step → ~2× throughput at large batch.
- Fix PnL bug: was accumulating raw_rewards (shaped, all batches) instead
of rewards/scale on done steps only.
- Wire diag-every=100 in Argo template (diag JSONL every 100 steps).
