jgrusewski 494a2e4827 perf(ml-alpha): block-per-batch cfc_step + reduce_axis0 reducer (Phase B commit 1)
Per docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-17-kloop-parallelization-design.md.

cfc_step_batched (fwd + bwd) refactored from grid=(1,1,1) with internal
n_batch loop to grid=(B,1,1) — each block handles one batch. Removes
the single-SM bottleneck on the K-loop's most-called kernel (64×/step).

Param-grad accumulation moves to per-batch scratch:
  cfc_grad_w_in_scratch_d  [B, n_hid, n_in]
  cfc_grad_w_rec_scratch_d [B, n_hid, n_hid]
  cfc_grad_b_scratch_d     [B, n_hid]
  cfc_grad_tau_scratch_d   [B, n_hid]

Zeroed once per training step, K-loop's 64 bwd calls += into them, then
4 reduce_axis0 launches collapse B → final grad buffers (OVERWRITE)
before AdamW. New AdamW-after-reducer invariant: final grads are
meaningful only after the reducer has run in the current step.

New reduce_axis0 kernel: single parameterised reducer [B, N] → [N] via
block tree-reduce (no atomicAdd per feedback_no_atomicadd.md). Same
pattern as layer_norm_reduce_param_grads — CUDA-Graph-safe.

cfc_step_backward_batched shared-mem dropped from (B+1)*n_hid*4 to
2*n_hid*4 bytes per block (only one row of sd_pre needed per block bi).

Tests:
- New stacked_trainer_loss_shrinks_at_batch_32: FIRST test that
  actually exercises the cross-batch reduction code path; existing
  perception_overfit suite was all B=1. Initial 0.24 → final 0.00.
- Scratch-clears test removed (explanatory comment kept): structurally
  hard to assert directly due to begin_capture/end_capture not
  executing kernels; the B=32 convergence smoke implicitly validates
  scratch zeroing since divergence would otherwise be immediate.

All 9 perception_overfit smokes + 4 backward_finite_diff tests pass.

build.rs:
- KERNELS list adds "reduce_axis0"
- Cache-bust → v11

ML Models

Four production model architectures on Candle v0.9.1 with CUDA:

  • DQN Rainbow -- Deep Q-Network with prioritized replay, dueling heads, noisy nets
  • PPO -- Proximal Policy Optimization with GAE and LSTM policies
  • TFT -- Temporal Fusion Transformer for multi-horizon forecasting
  • Mamba2 -- State space model for sequence prediction

Each model has a standalone trainer and a UnifiedTrainable adapter for the hyperopt pipeline.

Infrastructure

  • Git: Gitea at git.fxhnt.ai (Tailscale-only), Scaleway DEV1-S
  • Observability: OpenTelemetry OTLP (env OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT)
  • Database: PostgreSQL with SQLx offline mode for CI
