Root cause of H100 training time growth (12ms→23ms/step across epochs):
pfx_sum() fell back to single-block O(n) scan when num_blocks > 1024.
With block_dim=256 and buffer_size=500K: num_blocks = 1953 > 1024 → fallback.
Fix: increase block_dim to 1024 (capped at device max_threads_per_block).
Now: num_blocks = 500000/1024 = 489 < 1024 → multi-block 3-phase scan works.
Expected impact: PER sampling cost stays constant as buffer fills instead
of growing linearly. Training step time should be stable across epochs.

q_out_buf is [config.batch_size, total_actions] but host readback buffers
were sized for [sample_size, total_actions]. When sample_size < batch_size,
cudarc's memcpy_dtoh assertion (dst.len >= src.len) panics with SIGABRT.
Fix: allocate host buffer to match q_out.len(), then truncate to sample_size.
Affects: compute_epoch_q_diagnostics, compute_validation_loss, PER refresh.

Root cause: ElementwiseKernels was cached in a static OnceLock, compiled
once on the first test's CudaContext. When the second test created a new
CudaContext (fresh Arc), the cached CudaFunction handles were stale,
causing CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE on alloc_zeros (n=128, op=abs).
Fix: Replace OnceLock with a Mutex<HashMap<usize, Arc<ElementwiseKernels>>>
keyed by Arc<CudaContext> pointer address. Each distinct CudaContext gets
fresh kernel compilation. Old entries are evicted on context change.
Also: eliminate ALL GpuTensor from DQN training path (metrics.rs,
training_loop.rs). Replace with CPU computation for validation (cold path)
and raw CudaSlice for replay buffer insertion. Log deferred CUDA errors
instead of silently swallowing.
Result: ALL 6 sequential GPU smoke tests pass (was 1 failing).

- training_loop.rs: call gpu_buf.gpu.insert_batch() with raw CudaSlice
- Remove cuda_slice_to_tensor_f32 conversion (GpuTensor bridge)
- Remove log_gpu_memory helper (was a debug hack, not a fix)
Remaining: 1 sequential test still fails — GpuTensor operations in the
gradient accumulation path (lines 1015-1128) cache kernel handles on the
cudarc context. Needs systematic instrumented debugging to locate.

Root cause: `SMOKE_CUDA: OnceLock<MlDevice>` held a static Arc<CudaContext>
for the process lifetime. CudaSlice Drop from test N recorded errors on
this shared context's error_state, causing test N+1's bind_to_thread() to
fail with CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE.
Fix: create a fresh MlDevice per test (no static caching). Each test gets
its own CudaContext Arc with clean error_state.
Also: convert all GPU smoke tests from #[tokio::test] to synchronous #[test]
with explicit tokio::runtime::Builder::new_current_thread(). The runtime is
explicitly dropped between tests, ensuring all Arc<CudaContext> refs are freed.
Result: 5 of 6 sequential smoke tests now pass. The remaining 1 failure is
a real Candle GpuTensor bug: the replay buffer insertion path still uses
Candle's elementwise kernels, which cache CudaFunction handles that become
stale across test boundaries. Fix: eliminate Candle from replay buffer path.

Phase 2: Scan block_sums in a single block (num_blocks < 1024)
Phase 3: Propagate block offsets to make results globally correct
For N=100K: 391 blocks x 256 threads vs old 1 block x 1024 threads.
Fast path preserved for N <= 256 (single-block kernel, lower overhead).

- DQN CLI --max-steps-per-epoch was only wired to PPO (bug: 1394 steps ran instead of 10)
- Added per-substep timing: sample/fused/guard breakdown per epoch

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Eliminate the 3 CPU roundtrips per sample_proportional() call (called
300x/epoch), which was the #1 performance bottleneck:
1. Replace memcpy_dtoh(cs_total) with DtoD copy to pre-allocated
total_sum_buf — total_sum never leaves GPU
2. Replace CPU rand() + memcpy_htod(thresholds) with GPU-resident
Philox PRNG kernel — thresholds generated directly on device
3. Replace memcpy_htod([0.0], max_weight) with memset_zeros —
async GPU memset, zero host staging
4. is_weights_f32 kernel now reads total_sum from GPU pointer
instead of scalar argument
Pre-allocate 13 PER sampling buffers on the GpuReplayBuffer struct
(thresholds, indices, gathered data, weights, max_weight, total_sum_buf,
rng_step counter). All intermediate computation uses these pre-allocated
buffers. Output GpuBatchSlices are DtoD-cloned for ownership transfer.
Add max_batch_size field to GpuReplayBufferConfig (defaults to 1024).
Delete the cs_total() method entirely.
Net result: zero memcpy_dtoh, zero memcpy_htod, zero CPU synchronization
points in the PER sampling hot path.

Change the is_weights_f32 CUDA kernel signature from taking total_sum as

CUDA Graph capture disables event tracking, causing cudarc to store
errors via record_err() during device_ptr() calls. These errors block
all subsequent bind_to_thread() calls (which calls check_err first).
Fixes:
- check_err() immediately after re-enabling events post-capture
(clears stale errors on the stream's context)
- check_err() in DQNTrainer constructor (clears errors from previous
trainer instances sharing the same primary CUDA context)
- check_err() at training start (covers multi-test sequential execution)
- GPU-native cat bounds check fix (dst_start + n <= output.len())
- Removed should_use_cuda_graph — always use CUDA Graph
- Removed hacky clear_cuda_context test helper
CUDA Graph + raw post-graph ops work on all GPUs.
4/5 pipeline tests pass locally (5th is flaky due to CUDA primary
context error retention between sequential tests in same process).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Root cause: graph capture disables event tracking, but cudarc's
record_err() stores errors from cuStreamWaitEvent on disabled events.
bind_to_thread() calls check_err() and returns the stored error,
blocking ALL subsequent cudarc API calls (launch, sync, memcpy).
Fix:
- check_err() before EMA kernel launch to consume stale errors
- Raw cuStreamSynchronize + cuMemcpyDtoH for post-graph readback
(bypasses bind_to_thread entirely)
- Raw device pointers for EMA kernel args (bypasses device_ptr event wait)
- GPU-native cat bounds check (dst_start + n <= output.len())
- CUDA Graph always enabled (removed should_use_cuda_graph function)
4/5 DQN pipeline tests pass with CUDA Graph on RTX 3050.
5th (epsilon_greedy) passes individually, flaky in sequence.

After CUDA Graph capture (which disables/re-enables event tracking),
CudaSlices modified during capture have stale write events. Any cudarc
API call (memcpy_dtoh, synchronize, launch_builder.arg) on these slices
fails with CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE because cuStreamWaitEvent gets an
invalid event handle.
Fix: use raw CUDA driver calls for ALL post-graph operations:
- cuStreamSynchronize instead of cudarc synchronize() (avoids bind_to_thread)
- cuMemcpyDtoH_v2 via raw_device_ptr for scalar readbacks (2 × 4 bytes)
- raw_device_ptr for EMA kernel args (bypasses device_ptr event wait)
Event tracking remains enabled globally — only the 3 post-graph call sites
use raw driver calls. All other cudarc operations (cat/stack, alloc, etc.)
work normally with event tracking.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
cudarc's synchronize() calls bind_to_thread() which propagates stale
errors from graph capture via the context's error_state. This causes
CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE on the EMA pre-sync after graph replay.
Use raw cuStreamSynchronize for both sync points that follow CUDA Graph:
1. Pre-readback sync (before scalar DtoH)
2. EMA pre-sync (before Polyak target update)
Both are on the same stream as the graph — raw sync is sufficient.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
After CUDA Graph replay with event tracking re-enabled, the total_loss
and grad_norm CudaSlice buffers have stale write events from capture.
cudarc's memcpy_dtoh calls device_ptr() which waits on these stale events,
causing CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE on H100.
Fix: use raw_device_ptr (ManuallyDrop guard) + cuMemcpyDtoH_v2 for the
2 scalar readbacks (8 bytes total — legitimate GPU exit for metrics).
Stream is synchronized before readback, so event ordering is guaranteed.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The previous commit removed disable_event_tracking() from graph capture,
causing CUDA_ERROR_STREAM_CAPTURE_INVALIDATED on H100 (events recorded
during capture invalidate the capture).
Fix: disable event tracking BEFORE begin_capture, re-enable AFTER end_capture.
With GPU-native cat/stack (no to_host roundtrip), the re-enable is now safe —
post-capture operations don't call to_host on graph-modified buffers.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Root cause: GpuTensor::cat() called to_host() on each input tensor,
concatenated on CPU, then from_host() back to GPU. This caused:
1. Race conditions when async GPU work hadn't completed before to_host
2. CUDA_ERROR_ILLEGAL_ADDRESS when event tracking was disabled
3. Massive performance hit (2 DMA transfers per tensor per cat call)
Fix: replace with DtoD memcpy via CudaSlice::slice() views. Both dim=0
(contiguous blocks) and dim>0 (interleaved rows) use GPU-to-GPU copies.
Zero CPU involvement, zero event dependency, zero race conditions.
Also: revert global disable_event_tracking() — was a workaround for the
to_host race, no longer needed with GPU-native cat/stack.
5/5 DQN pipeline tests pass with CUDA Graph enabled on RTX 3050.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Both CudaSlice::device_ptr() and CudaView::device_ptr() call
stream.wait(write_event) which fails with CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE
when the write event was recorded during graph capture (event tracking
was disabled). CudaView doesn't help — it borrows the parent's events.
Fix: use raw_device_ptr() (ManuallyDrop guard, skips event wait) +
raw cuMemcpyDtoH_v2 for the 2 scalar readbacks. Stream is synced
before readback, so event ordering is guaranteed by the sync barrier.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Graph capture disables cudarc event tracking, leaving stale write events
on CudaSlice buffers. cudarc's memcpy_dtoh calls device_ptr() which waits
on these stale events, causing CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE on H100.
Fix: read via CudaView (slice(..)) which borrows without triggering the
parent CudaSlice's stale event wait. Stream sync before readback ensures
kernel writes are complete.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
CUDA Graph capture disables cudarc event tracking, so device_ptr()
cannot rely on write events for ordering. Without explicit sync,
the DtoH memcpy can get CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE because the
kernel writes haven't completed yet.
Add stream.synchronize() between graph launch and scalar readback.
This ensures kernel output buffers (total_loss, grad_norm) are valid
before the host reads them. The sync cost is negligible — it's
1 sync per training step (already bottlenecked by kernel execution).
Fixes H100 CI failure: all DQN pipeline tests returned
"DtoH grad_norm: CUDA_ERROR_INVALID_VALUE" consistently.

Root cause: per_update_priorities_kernel wrote to priorities[idx] without

Root cause: dqn_forward_loss_kernel accessed online_log_probs[] out of bounds
when actions buffer contained uninitialized values. The factored action
decomposition (action/9, action%9/3, action%3) produced branch indices > array
size, causing Invalid __local__ read at the current_lp pointer dereference.
Found via compute-sanitizer with -lineinfo: crash at line 612 (current_lp[j]
read with a_d * NUM_ATOMS overflow). All threads in all blocks crashed at the
same offset +0x28d50, confirming systematic OOB rather than race condition.
Fixes:
- Clamp factored_action to [0, BRANCH_0*BRANCH_1*BRANCH_2) in both
forward_loss and backward kernels (safe default: action 0 = hold)
- Use generic branch decomposition (BRANCH_x_SIZE) instead of hardcoded /9 /3
- Disable CUDA Graph on consumer GPUs (< 164KB shmem opt-in)
- Query CU_DEVICE_ATTRIBUTE_MAX_SHARED_MEMORY_PER_BLOCK_OPTIN for shmem limit
- Share query_max_shmem_bytes() between trainer and experience collector
This eliminates CUDA context poisoning between walk-forward folds — fold 1+
can now create new CudaStreams successfully.

- Dynamic C51 atom scaling: <8GB→11, <16GB→21, >=16GB→51 atoms
- Dynamic CUDA stack: 16KB for 11 atoms, 32KB for 21, 64KB for 51
- VRAM-aware GPU experience episodes: 16 episodes on <8GB (was 256)
- Bypass CUDA Graph when shmem > 48KB (direct kernel launch fallback)
- Remove .max(51) on num_atoms_max — use actual configured atom count
- Shared query_max_shmem_bytes() used by both trainer and collector

The fused DQN training kernel allocates DIST_SIZE(HIDDEN)*NUM_ATOMS

<8GB→11, <16GB→21, >=16GB→51 (matches smoke_test_real_data pattern).
Note: experience collector still compiles with atoms_max=51 hardcoded
