perf(tts): decode long-form chunks in waves, and batch the decoder, local transformer and cross-attention by ryanleary · Pull Request #38 · NVIDIA/NeMo-Speech.cpp

ryanleary · 2026-09-10T05:54:31Z

Decode long-form MagpieTTS chunks in lockstep waves. Batch the opening prefill, the decoder, the local transformer, and cross-attention. Opt-in through --tts.batch-size; shipped defaults are unchanged.

Bottom line

Twenty-sentence script, greedy, median of five, GPU idle-gated. RTF is compute-seconds per audio-second; lower is better.

GPU	stock	this branch	speed-up	best setting
GB300 (sm_103, CUDA 13.2)	0.0402	0.0083	4.8x	width 32, chunk-frames 32
GB10 (sm_121, CUDA 13.0)	0.0668	0.0263	2.54x	width 16, chunk-frames 16

At the shipped chunk width, GB300 goes 0.0402 -> 0.0167. Time to first audio matches stock on both and does not vary with wave width.

Two hundred sentences (1013 s of audio) on GB300: 152x realtime at 3.4 GiB, or 196x at 11.1 GiB with the width opened to 200.

Default --tts.batch-size 1 gets only the kernel-level work (-11.2%) and byte-identical audio.

What changed

Wave scheduler (magpietts.cpp)

Plan chunk windows in order. Chunk N's conditioning splices from chunk N-1's encoder output, never from its decode.
Decode chunks in lockstep groups through one graph. Finished items keep stepping; their output is discarded.
Decode chunk 0 alone, stream the chunk at each group's head frame by frame, and encode a group's chunks when that group runs. All three are required to keep first audio early.
Require a pinned long-form history. The adaptive default derives chunk N's window from chunk N-1's decode, which a wave has not run, so the gate refuses rather than silently changing behaviour.

Batched decoder (decoder.cpp)

Add an item axis: tokens [items, codebooks], per-item hidden, per-item alignment, per-item K/V seeding.
Open a whole group in one prefill graph. Every chunk's baked context is the same length, so the sequence is uniform across the batch; only the text differs, and the padded cross arena covers that. Self-K/V go straight into the ring the steps append to.
Batch cross-attention over a padded arena: each item's cross-K/V padded to the wave's widest text, plus an additive mask that is zero inside a chunk's own length and -inf past it.
Upload the attention mask incrementally. 78 KB per step becomes 2 B.

Batched local transformer (lt.cpp, magpietts_cuda_sampling.cu)

Add a batch axis to the LT graph; one K/V history per lane.
Lay codes out round-major: round c of a wave of B occupies [c*B, c*B+B). The handoff becomes one contiguous copy and the RNG seed becomes c*B+b, distinct per (round, item). At B=1 that is c.
Invalidate the composed CUDA chain on a change of width or of either hidden tensor's address. The chain captures both. Three bugs came from this.

Benchmark (scripts/tts/bench_magpietts.py)

Three cases, greedy A/B, sha256 reproducibility check, GPU idle gate.

Why

A decode step is 64% main decoder, 35% local transformer. Batching the decoder alone is worth ~2.3x; batching both ~5.6x.

The wave was then bound by graph size. At width 16 the GPU was busy 121 ms of a 1288 ms decode, because each sequential op costs ~0.25 us even inside a captured CUDA graph. Cross-attention ran once per item: 639 nodes at width 1, 4649 at width 16. One padded arena gives 617 nodes and takes RTF 0.0229 -> 0.0172.

Opening a chunk was the last thing running one at a time: 195 ms over 20 chunks, 19% of the producer thread. Batched, it is 30 ms over 3 graphs. The staging caches that went with it were 288 MiB a chunk, which is what capped wave width.

Results

With the wave enabled

--tts.batch-size 16 --tts.longform-history-tokens 20, default chunk width. Both flags default off.

Case	Stock	This branch	Change
line (1 sentence)	0.0431	0.0385	-10.7%
paragraph (5 sentences)	0.0401	0.0228	-43.1%
script (20 sentences)	0.0402	0.0167	-58.5%

Line is a single chunk, so no wave forms and it takes the sequential path. It is the control, and shows the kernel-level work alone. Run-to-run and day-to-day spread on that control is about 2%, the noise floor for every figure here.

decoder_itl_avg_ms counts frames produced, so a wave records one event per item per step and the sequential path one per step. The two are not comparable; read RTF across paths.

The last row is small at the shipped chunk width because the codec is still in the way. At --tts.chunk-frames 32, where the decoder binds, the same change is worth -10.8%.

Tuning

Script case, RTF / TTFA:

wave width	cf=4	cf=8	cf=16	cf=32
1 (no wave)	0.0359 / 30 ms	0.0348 / 36 ms	0.0344 / 47 ms	0.0346 / 69 ms
4	0.0211 / 30 ms	0.0180 / 36 ms	0.0162 / 47 ms	0.0154 / 69 ms
8	0.0180 / 30 ms	0.0144 / 36 ms	0.0126 / 47 ms	0.0117 / 69 ms
16	0.0167 / 30 ms	0.0129 / 36 ms	0.0109 / 47 ms	0.0100 / 69 ms
32	0.0151 / 30 ms	0.0114 / 36 ms	0.0093 / 47 ms	0.0083 / 69 ms

--tts.batch-size is a throughput knob with no latency cost. TTFA is flat across every width, including width 1. Set it as wide as the input allows; the cost is memory.
--tts.chunk-frames sets the latency. Each step from 4 to 32 adds ~13 ms of TTFA, identically at every wave width.

Use	Setting	RTF	TTFA	vs stock
Streaming	width 32, cf 4	0.0151	30 ms	2.7x, same TTFA
Balanced	width 32, cf 8	0.0114	36 ms	3.5x, 1.2x TTFA
Throughput	width 32, cf 32	0.0083	69 ms	4.8x, 2.3x TTFA

Latency

Two things hold first audio back in a wave: a group emits only once its slowest member finishes, and the scheduler encoded every chunk before decoding any.

Case	Stock	This branch	Buffering a whole group	Encoding every chunk up front
paragraph	29.9 ms	29.9 ms	288.2 ms	37.5 ms
script	30.3 ms	30.1 ms	492.5 ms	65.4 ms

Decode chunk 0 alone, stream the head of each group frame by frame, and encode a group's chunks when that group runs. First audio now matches stock and does not depend on wave width.

Long input

200 sentences, ~1000 s of audio, --tts.chunk-frames 32. Sequential baseline 0.0357 / 30 ms. Peak is net of other tenants on the device.

Setting	RTF	real time	TTFA	Peak GPU
width 32	0.0066	152x	69 ms	3.4 GiB
width 64	0.0058	172x	69 ms	4.8 GiB
width 128	0.0054	186x	69 ms	7.8 GiB
width 200	0.0051	196x	69 ms	11.1 GiB

Width saturates: 32 -> 64 is -12%, 64 -> 128 -7%, 128 -> 200 -6%. Memory is what caps it, and batching the prefill cut memory to a third: width 128 now fits in less than width 32 used to take, and runs 27% faster.

Three bugs this input found, all fixed here:

Every chunk held its own cond_kv/uncond_kv -- full-size decoder caches, 288 MiB a chunk, 56 GiB at 200 chunks -- whose only job was seeding the wave arena. First released after the first wave step (63.4 -> 15.7 GiB), then not allocated at all once the prefill was batched: 11.2 -> 3.4 GiB at width 32.
Width 200 aborted in ggml. The seed and cross-K/V gather build one-shot copy graphs whose node count scales with the wave, in a context sized for MAGPIETTS_MAX_NODES. Sized to the graph instead.
A model whose decoder feed-forward is a convolution would have decoded silently wrong in a wave rather than falling back. Every shipped checkpoint has kernel size 1; the gate now names it.

A long-form crash on ordinary prose

plan_text_chunk capped the history window by prior_text_tokens -- every token seen so far -- but the history is spliced from the previous chunk's encoder output, which reaches back exactly one chunk. As soon as a chunk came out shorter than the next chunk's requested history, the splice asked the cache for tokens it never held:

longform history context cache is too short: need 20 token(s), have 16

The adaptive rule made it reachable: it caps history by the current chunk's length, so a short sentence yields a short window and the chunk after it asks for more than its predecessor left behind. Found with sentences sampled from public-domain prose, whose tenth percentile is six words. It reproduces on stock -- a 32-sentence input dies at chunk 29 of 38 -- and the inlined benchmark never hit it because its shortest sentence is eleven words.

The window is now clamped by the previous chunk's own length. The pinned path was already immune, since pinning history to N makes every later chunk at least N tokens long, which is why the wave ran these inputs while the sequential path did not.

Second GPU

GB10 (sm_121), CUDA 13.0, same driver script and cases. Stock 0.0668 on the script.

config	before the batched prefill	after
width 16, cf 4	0.0365	0.0310
width 16, cf 16	0.0317	0.0263
width 32, cf 16	0.0294	0.0319
width 32, cf 32	0.0295	0.0322

GB10's optimum moves from width 32 to width 16; GB300's stays at 32.

The width-32 rows are a straggler, not a scaling cliff. Magpie occasionally produces a chunk whose attention does not reach its text end for a long time -- ~291 steps where a normal chunk finishes in 115-145. That is pre-existing and appears in both arms; which chunk it lands on moves with any change to the arithmetic. Sequential decoding pays it once, but a wave pays it times the group width, because lockstep holds every other item until the straggler finishes. Here the group is 19 wide and chunk 7 ran to 291, taking the run from 218 steps to 361. On a 24-sentence input the same build shows no width-32 penalty (0.0285 at width 16 against 0.0290 at width 32), and the before arm shows its own straggler at width 16 there.

Validation

Batch-1 identity was the gate for every change up to the local-transformer swap: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72, re-checked after each commit.
Moving the local transformer to flash attention re-baselines those to 0afc4e3a87b69463, b108af49283f35d8, 2dbd3bfb55596e25. Output stays reproducible run to run; durations move -2.2%; gated on a listening check, which passed. Sample-wise SNR is not usable across that boundary, because once the greedy code sequence diverges the waveform is simply different.
Batching the opening prefill leaves the sequential path byte-identical: a width-1 long-form run hashes the same in both arms. Every before/after number here comes from two builds made and benched in one session, with the live build confirmed by symbol lookup.
Wave output holds its length. Script 99.5 s against sequential 99.9 s, paragraph 25.2 s against 25.5 s. Every chunk reaches the end of its text; no words are dropped.
Codec chunk width changes decoded samples at -49 dB SNR (max delta 132/32768) with codes held fixed. Boundary effects in the chunked convolution: below audibility, enough to break byte-reproducibility.
Stock is not reproducible with itself. Two runs at identical settings differ at 10.8 dB SNR. That is fix(ggml): guard the half_snake fusion against allocator buffer reuse #28, included here.

Code health

Two blocks the wave had duplicated from the sequential loop are now shared: plan_text_chunk (window and history planning) and advance_chunk_state (prior update, chunk-end test, EOS suppression, frame split). They had already diverged -- the wave tested min_generated_frames against frames decoded where the sequential loop used frames emitted.
Deleted the fused-attention plumbing flash_attn_ext replaced: slot_ids, the cache_meta graph input, and two dead Q/K/V views. cache_meta was uploaded every decode step and never read, so this also removes a blocking transfer per step.
The local transformer now uses flash_attn_ext too, removing the last caller of ggml_fused_attn_cached. That entry point is trimmed from patch 0014 (2626 -> 2595 lines). GGML_OP_FUSED_ATTN stays: patch 0014 consolidated patch 0001's relpos op onto it, and ASR's FastConformer uses both wrappers.
The non-wave branch of the decoder's alignment reduction looped over items, padded each row to the wave's widest text and concatenated them. A wave returns before that point and the single-item runtime has one item, so neither the pad nor the concat could ever fire; it is now the single-item reduction it always was.
The two wave sampleCuda call sites are guarded for non-CUDA builds. The cpu-tts preset failed to compile without this; it now builds clean, which is what a Metal build needs first.
plan_text_chunk now has a unit test: eleven cases covering the adaptive cap, required_history, pinning, the model-context bound, and the window's contents. Reverting the history clamp fails seven of them, including the exact shape of the crash above.
Debug scaffolding is gone, including the only change to src/runtime/ggml, so this no longer touches the shared runtime.
History squashed from 40 commits to 24: the six [pre-commit.ci] commits are folded into the changes they reformat, the WIP that decoded wrong is folded into the fix that followed, and the claim one commit made and another corrected is stated once. Verified by diffing the squashed tree against the original head -- identical.

Known gaps

A straggler chunk costs the whole group, because finished items are held in lockstep rather than retired. On real prose this is the dominant remaining cost: sampled from public-domain text, per-chunk step counts run to a max/mean ratio of 1.9 at 38 chunks and 3.4 at 150, against 1.26 for the inlined benchmark, and the group pays the max. Projected against those measured distributions, retiring finished items is worth only 3-6%, because 76% of a step's cost is fixed regardless of width. Admitting the next pending chunk into the freed lane instead -- continuous batching -- is worth ~60% of decode and ~37% end-to-end, but needs per-item ring positions and per-item masks, since the current design has every item share one step index, one ring head and one mask.
stream_magpie_to_audio is long, and the wave block within it would lift into its own function. It captures 20 locals, so that is code motion plus a context struct.
No test for the local transformer's chain-invalidation triple, which three bugs came from. It needs a live CUDA context, so it is not a unit test.
The single-item path silently falls back to the non-persistent decoder on the last step of the position budget, because the ring is one slot short of it. A perf cliff, not a correctness bug; the wave gets the extra slot because it has no fallback.
Per-chunk cross-K/V construction is still serial. Not worth chasing: 10 ms over 21 calls.
The encoder discards ~20% of its work to overlapping history windows. Pre-existing.

Builds on #28, #32, #33, #37, whose changes are included here; once those merge this rebases onto them and loses the first four commits.

Inline comments:
In `@ggml-patches/0023-im2col-1d-coalesced-tiles.patch`:
- Line 89: Update the tiled-path dispatch condition near KH, IH, OH, and N so it
also requires p1 == 0; preserve the existing generic-kernel path for
configurations with nonzero vertical padding.

In `@scripts/tts/bench_magpietts.py`:
- Around line 68-74: Update gpu_util so it safely handles empty nvidia-smi
stdout and lines without numeric content, returning the conservative 100
fallback instead of raising IndexError or ValueError; preserve numeric parsing
for valid output.
- Around line 200-201: Update the idle check in the case loop around wait_idle
so a false return causes the script to exit, matching the existing handling near
line 170. Preserve the current CUDA and allow_busy_gpu conditions, and do not
benchmark the next case after the 600-second timeout.
- Line 143: Update the --out argument in the benchmark argument parser to
default to a uniquely generated per-run temporary path or directory, preventing
concurrent runs from sharing output; preserve explicit --out values unchanged.

In `@src/tts/magpietts/decoder.cpp`:
- Line 1142: Remove the unused cache_meta input from eval, evalWave, and
build_graph, including its tensor binding and per-step upload; retain fa_mask
and write_rows for ring state. Update the input-count validation from 4 to 3,
without changing define_tensors.
- Around line 931-933: Validate the requested wave width before the graph
initialization flow creates either graph: ensure both capacities, 8 * items *
n_layers + 1024 and 16 * cond.n_layers * lanes_ + 256, fit within the 32768-node
metadata reserved by new_graph_context(). Reject or limit oversized waves before
calling new_graph_context() or ggml_new_graph_custom(), while preserving normal
initialization for valid widths.

In `@src/tts/magpietts/lt.cpp`:
- Line 835: Update the non-CUDA graph reuse condition in
local_transformer_graph_bank_eval to require graph.batch != 1, preventing reuse
of a batched graph for single-item host sampling while preserving valid reuse
for single-batch graphs.
- Around line 101-111: Update LocalTransformerGraph move construction/assignment
used by local_transformer_graph_bank_eval_cuda so the batch value is preserved
when graph vectors reallocate. Ensure the destination receives the source
graph’s batch rather than retaining its default, keeping graph reuse and
sampling offsets/counts aligned with the built batch.

In `@src/tts/magpietts/magpietts.cpp`:
- Line 1115: Update the validation condition near the long-form parameter checks
to also require longform_active, so the adaptive-history rejection applies only
when multiple token chunks exist. Preserve the existing batch_size and
longform_history_tokens constraints for active long-form requests, while
allowing single-chunk requests to proceed.
- Around line 1291-1293: Update the use_wave condition near the wave decoding
gate to also require the fused-attention capability before selecting wave
decoding. Reuse the existing fused-attention availability symbol or check used
by beginFrame, ensuring builds without fused cached attention fall back to
sequential decoding.

In `@src/tts/nanocodec/model.cpp`:
- Around line 1035-1041: Move the NANO_CODEC_MAX_CACHES validation earlier in
the graph/cache construction flow, before nc_stream_cache_tensor creates any
cache tensors or consumes state.ctx tensor-header capacity. Ensure graphs
exceeding the limit are rejected cleanly, while valid cache creation remains
unchanged.
- Around line 260-264: Update the auxiliary-context handling around
model.aux_buffer allocation so an empty model.aux_ctx, created when no upsampler
kernels require conversion, is treated as success rather than an allocation
failure. Release model.aux_ctx and return success before rejecting a null
allocation; preserve the existing allocation-failure path for contexts
containing tensors.
- Around line 1101-1104: Update NanoCodecStreamGraph initialization and
NanoCodecDecoder::decodeStream validation to retain the owning
NanoCodecStreamState identity and reject states other than that owner, in
addition to the existing buffer and cache-count checks; ensure graph execution
uses only the caches belonging to its bound stream state.

Require zero vertical padding for the tiled path.

The tiled kernel ignores p1. A valid configuration can have IH == 1, KH == 1, OH == 1, and nonzero p1. The generic kernel emits padding for that row, but the tiled kernel reads the input row.

Add p1 == 0 to the dispatch condition, or implement the vertical bounds check. The new tests do not detect this case because they all use zero p1.

Guard against empty or non-numeric nvidia-smi output.

Line 74 indexes out.splitlines()[0] before the or "100" fallback applies. If nvidia-smi writes the error to stderr and leaves stdout empty, splitlines() returns [] and the index raises IndexError. A line such as N/A also strips to "", and int("") raises ValueError. Both cases abort the benchmark with a traceback instead of the intended busy-GPU fallback.

ggml_backend_alloc_ctx_tensors ggml_backend_alloc_ctx_tensors_from_buft empty context implementation

💡 Result:

The functions ggml_backend_alloc_ctx_tensors_from_buft and its underlying implementation detail refer to the GGML memory management system used to assign backend-specific memory to tensors defined within a ggml_context [1][2]. When a ggml_context is initialized with no_alloc = true, it acts as an arena allocator that stores tensor metadata (such as shapes and data types) but leaves the actual tensor data pointers as NULL [3][4]. The ggml_backend_alloc_ctx_tensors_from_buft function is designed to iterate through all tensors in such a context, calculate the required buffer size based on the provided buffer type (buft), and allocate a single (or composite) backend buffer to hold the data for those tensors [1][2]. The implementation details include: 1. Initialization: The context must be created with no_alloc = true, otherwise, the allocator will assert/fail because the tensors are expected to be unallocated [1][2]. 2. Buffer Calculation: The function ggml_backend_alloc_ctx_tensors_from_buft_size uses an internal helper, ggml_backend_alloc_ctx_tensors_from_buft_impl, with the no_alloc flag set to true to calculate the total required memory size without actually performing the allocation [1]. 3. Allocation Logic: The function traverses the tensor list in the context, padding tensor sizes according to the buffer's alignment requirements [1]. If tensors exceed the max_size of a single buffer, it may allocate multiple buffers and combine them [1]. 4. Return Value: It returns a ggml_backend_buffer that the caller is responsible for freeing using ggml_backend_buffer_free [2][5]. If all tensors in the context are already allocated or zero-sized, it returns NULL [6]. This mechanism is a standard pattern for preparing models to run on hardware backends (like CUDA, Metal, or Vulkan), where data must reside in device-specific memory rather than the CPU-side arena [3][7].

Handle the empty auxiliary context before allocation.

When all upsampler kernels are GGML_TYPE_F32, the conversion loop creates no tensors. ggml then returns NULL for the empty context, and this code rejects the model as an allocation failure. Return success and release model.aux_ctx when no conversion is required.

official ggml source ggml_new_object context not enough space ggml_init mem_size

💡 Result:

The error ggml_new_object: not enough space in the context's memory pool occurs when the total memory required for objects (tensors, computation graphs, and internal buffers) exceeds the capacity specified in the ggml_init_params.mem_size field during the initialization of the ggml_context [1][2][3]. Because ggml uses a fixed-size arena (bump-pointer) allocator, all objects must be accommodated within the pre-allocated memory pool [1][2][4]. There are no heap allocations during the computation phase, which ensures performance but requires precise pre-calculation of memory needs [1][5][4]. To resolve this issue, you can use the following strategies: 1. Determine Required Memory: After defining your computation graph, you can call ggml_used_mem(ctx) to check the actual memory consumed [2][3]. This allows you to iteratively tune the mem_size parameter until it is sufficient [5]. 2. Use no_alloc Mode: When initializing the context, you can set no_alloc = true in ggml_init_params [6][2]. This forces ggml to allocate only the metadata for tensors within the context's memory pool, leaving the actual tensor data buffers to be managed externally (e.g., via ggml_gallocr or backend-specific allocators) [6][7][8]. This is the recommended practice for modern ggml applications to avoid exhausting the CPU-side arena [6][8]. 3. Account for Overhead: When manually calculating memory needs, ensure you include the size of all tensor structs, graph overhead, and internal work buffers [1][6]. Constants such as GGML_OBJECT_SIZE and padding (e.g., GGML_MEM_ALIGN) are significant [9][6][3]. The library provides helper functions like ggml_tensor_overhead and ggml_graph_overhead to help compute these requirements accurately [6][7]. If you encounter this error unexpectedly in existing, well-tested code, it may indicate a bug in how memory is managed, such as failing to reset contexts between graph rebuilds or improper management of meta-backend buffers [10][9].

Move the cache-count check before cache tensor creation.

state.ctx reserves space for exactly NANO_CODEC_MAX_CACHES tensor headers. nc_stream_cache_tensor creates cache tensors before the guard runs. When the graph needs more caches, ggml exhausts the fixed context pool before line 1035 can report the limit violation. Count caches before graph construction, or reject new caches when the limit is reached.

Bind each persistent graph to its owning stream state.

NanoCodecDecoder::decodeStream accepts independent NanoCodecStreamState and NanoCodecStreamGraph objects. The graph stores pointers to the cache tensors created during initStreamGraph, but decode_eval_stream checks only the cache count. A different state with the same topology can pass the check, while graph execution still reads the original state's caches. This can produce incorrect audio without an error.

Store and validate the exact owner:

Release seed state when a group finishes at step 0.

The release block runs only at step 1. If all group items finish at step 0, the loop exits at Line 1716 before this block runs. The cleanup at Lines 1808-1812 releases only cross_kv.

Because plan retains completed items until the request ends, each item can retain its full cond_kv, uncond_kv, and conditioning buffers. Long inputs with immediate EOS or a one-position decoder limit can therefore exhaust GPU memory.

Use an idempotent cleanup helper. Call it at step 1 and during unconditional group cleanup.

Proposed cleanup pattern

+ auto release_seed_state = [](WaveItem& item) { + item.cond_kv.reset(); + item.uncond_kv.reset(); + item.text_cond_device.reset(); + item.text_cond.clear(); + item.text_cond.shrink_to_fit(); + }; + if (step == 1) { for (size_t k = 0; k < width; ++k) { - plan[base + k]->cond_kv.reset(); - plan[base + k]->uncond_kv.reset(); - plan[base + k]->text_cond_device.reset(); - plan[base + k]->text_cond.clear(); - plan[base + k]->text_cond.shrink_to_fit(); + release_seed_state(*plan[base + k]); } }

Also call release_seed_state(*plan[base + k]) in the group cleanup after decoder.resetWave().

1328-1329: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Keep external K/V storage consistent before advancing its token count.

evalWave() writes generated K/V only to the internal F16 arena. These lines then advertise the new length in each external DecoderKvCache.

After resetWave() or a runtime rebuild, seed() reads slot.cond_kv->memory_* and slot.uncond_kv->memory_* up to that advanced length. Those F32 tensors contain only the old prefill state. The rebuilt wave therefore treats stale K/V entries as live and can generate different audio.

Export the updated arena state to the per-item caches before advancing n_tokens, or clear the affected caches and force a prefill/fallback whenever the wave runtime is discarded.

Keep external K/V contents consistent with n_tokens.

These assignments advance the external cache metadata, but the newly generated K/V values remain only in the private F16 ring arena. If resetWave() runs, or waveMatches() rebuilds after the wave membership changes, seed() copies n_tokens entries from the stale external F32 caches. The rebuilt wave then uses missing or obsolete history.

Materialize the private ring into each external cache before discarding or rebuilding the runtime. Alternatively, clear the external cache metadata and force a complete sequential refill before it can seed another wave.

Clear slot.alignment_scores when module_.alignment_count() == 0.

When no selected cross-attention alignment layer exists, has_alignment is false and alignment remains zero-initialized. The wave caller can still provide slot.alignment_scores, so this loop can return fabricated zero scores. wave_step_finish passes those scores to advance_chunk_state, which uses them for attention-prior updates and chunk-end decisions. Clear the vector before assigning, and assign only when has_alignment is true.

Do not use cache specializations before all cache rows are valid.

cache_state can include an active-length column, but the relative-position register kernels only receive ring_heads. For example, the q_len == 2, cache_len == 70 specialization attends all 72 keys even when the active length is zero. If mask is null, it reads stale or uninitialized cache rows and produces incorrect warm-up output.

Pass active_lengths into every cached specialization and start at cache_len - active_lengths[b]. As a safe short-term fix, route two-column cache_state inputs through fused_attention_kernel.

💡 Result:

In the CUDA Runtime API, both cudaGraphAddKernelNode and cudaGraphLaunch behave like standard runtime functions regarding error reporting and the state of cudaGetLastError [1]. When you call cudaGraphAddKernelNode, it returns a cudaError_t [2]. If the operation fails (e.g., due to invalid parameters), it returns the specific error code, and this error is also set in the thread-local error state that cudaGetLastError monitors [1]. If the call succeeds, it returns cudaSuccess, and the thread-local error state is typically reset to cudaSuccess [1]. Similarly, cudaGraphLaunch executes a graph that has already been instantiated [3]. If the launch fails—for example, due to invalid parameters or an invalid graph handle—it returns a cudaError_t [1]. This error is recorded in the CUDA runtime's thread-local error state, which can be retrieved and cleared by calling cudaGetLastError [1]. Key takeaways regarding error handling in this workflow: 1. Error State Reset: Calling cudaGetLastError retrieves the last error code from the runtime and resets the state to cudaSuccess [1]. If you use cudaPeekAtLastError instead, you can inspect the current error state without clearing it [1]. 2. Synchronous vs. Asynchronous: While cudaGraphAddKernelNode is a host-side setup function that executes synchronously, cudaGraphLaunch initiates execution, but errors related to the actual kernel execution within the graph might be asynchronous depending on the device and configuration. 3. Troubleshooting: Always check the return value of both functions directly rather than relying solely on cudaGetLastError, as checking the return value is the standard and safest practice in CUDA development [1].

Clear CUDA’s last-error state on every graph-composition fallback.

When cudaGraphLaunch, cudaGraphAddKernelNode, or cudaGraphAddMemcpyNode1D fails during composition, lt.cpp disables graph composition and runs the eager chain. These CUDA errors remain in the thread-local last-error state until cudaGetLastError() clears them, so the eager chain can inherit the graph error and fail. Add the cleanup to each graph-composition failure branch, including the config-upload and device-copy paths.

194-195: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Do not suppress valid frames when EOS stops the chunk.

When EOS occurs in a later stacked lane, out.stop becomes true before this block. This block then enables suppress_nonfinal_codec_output. The emission block consequently discards all valid lanes before EOS.

Enable suppression only when the non-final chunk must continue for attention catch-up.

The streaming decoder marshals all 97 layer caches through the host between chunks: a device-to-host copy per cache after every chunk and a host-to-device copy per cache before the next. At the default 4-frame chunk that is ~196 blocking copies per chunk, and almost none of it is bandwidth -- the caches are a few KB each, so the cost is per-copy cudaStreamSynchronize latency. Profiled on a five-sentence paragraph, the codec worker thread issues 26,862 cudaMemcpyAsync and 26,989 cudaStreamSynchronize calls to launch 1,330 kernels: 678 ms of marshalling around a small amount of compute. The caches now live in a backend buffer for the lifetime of the stream. The decode graph reads each one in place and writes the next value back with ggml_cpy, ordered after the node that reads the old value, so a chunk uploads only the latent and reads back only the audio. Two smaller changes come with it: - The upsampler kernels were cast F16->F32 inside the graph, so 7.7M weights were reconverted on every chunk. That conversion now happens once at load, and only where it changes the result: CUDA and Metal widen an F16 kernel to F32 and accumulate in F32, so they use the weights as stored, while Vulkan (which rejects a non-F32 kernel) and the CPU path (which would round activations to F16 as well) get a converted copy. - One fixed-size graph now serves the stream, built and run once up front so the first-run capture is off the first chunk. Measured on a GB300, greedy, median of 5 runs per case on an idle-gated GPU. Both arms carry the half_snake aliasing guard (see below): case e2e RTF codec RTFx line 0.0431 -> 0.0413 33.7 -> 68.1 paragraph 0.0400 -> 0.0395 38.4 -> 70.0 script 0.0401 -> 0.0395 38.8 -> 70.1 Codec throughput is 1.8-2.0x. End to end is only 1.3-4.2%, and that is the honest framing: the codec runs on a worker thread and the acoustic model still sets the pace. What this buys is headroom and latency -- codec time-to-first-audio 2.88 ms, and a codec that no longer caps the system at RTFx ~39 once the decoder gets faster. By CUDA API call, same paragraph: cudaMemcpyAsync 34,194 -> 7,409 (-78%) cudaStreamSynchronize 29,332 -> 2,567 (-91%) Correctness. This reshapes the codec graph, which changes what the graph allocator does, and that surfaced something worth stating plainly: **main is not currently reproducible.** Three greedy runs of the same 20-sentence script on stock a5b6953 give three different WAVs. It was reproducible at 69d7fd4, so one of the two commits since woke it. The cause is the half_snake fusion reading a parent activation the allocator has already recycled for the concat output. With that guard applied and no other change, stock main is deterministic again and reproduces 69d7fd4's output byte for byte. Against that reference, this change is 92.2 dB SNR, max 6 LSB, with the only differing samples in the last 0.06 s of a 100 s clip -- the final partial chunk's padding and trim. Three runs are byte-identical. So the guard is a prerequisite for measuring anything on the codec path, not a consequence of this change. It is not included here.

The codec change beside this one needed a harness that could be trusted, and two properties of this pipeline make a naive one misleading. Sampled decoding picks a different code sequence when anything perturbs the arithmetic, which changes the audio *duration*, which moves RTF on its own -- so an A/B of two builds can show a difference that is entirely an artefact of one arm producing 2.7 s of audio and the other 3.0 s. --greedy holds the sequence fixed. And a background job on the same GPU moves these numbers by 2-4x, so the script refuses to start until nvidia-smi reports <= 3% for four consecutive samples, and re-checks between cases. Three cases -- one line, a five-sentence paragraph, a twenty-sentence script -- because RTF does not scale flatly with length and one short utterance hides both long-form and codec behaviour. --check runs each case N times and reports the sha256 of the decoded WAV instead of timing it. Under --greedy every run must produce the same hash. That is not a hypothetical guard: stock main currently fails it, which is the subject of NVIDIA#28, and no benchmark taken against a non-reproducible baseline means anything. Metrics come from the existing --verbose line, so this needs no runtime change: e2e_rtf, decoder_itl_avg_ms, codec_rtfx, codec_ttfa_ms and e2e_audio_s. Reports the median of N.

…kernel The persistent decoder's self-attention used ggml_fused_attn_cached, which does the cache append and the attention in one custom kernel over the ring arena. Profiling says that kernel is the most expensive thing in the decode step: 6.47 ms per audio-second, 15.0% of all GPU time on a five-sentence paragraph. Splitting it into a ggml_set_rows append and a ggml_flash_attn_ext read costs 3.57 + 0.57 ms per audio-second instead -- 45% less for the attention itself -- and total GPU kernel time falls 43.09 -> 40.37 ms per audio-second. Crucially it keeps the graph. The arena, the ring and the fixed shapes are unchanged, the whole ring is read every step with a mask selecting the live slots, and CUDA graph replays stay at 50.9 per audio-second against 51.0 before. That was the point: their graph structure is the good part, and only the kernel needed replacing. The mask does not have to reorder anything. Positions are baked into K before projection, so attention is order-agnostic and the rotation of the ring only changes which slots are live -- contents move, shapes do not, which is exactly what a captured graph allows. The arena becomes F16 because ggml's flash attention wants it: handed an F32 cache it converts K and V on every call. Note this is the opposite of what the same change does to the kernel it replaces -- F16 makes *that* kernel 24% slower, because its half loads fetch 8 bytes and convert where the float path is a single 16-byte load. Measured both ways before choosing. Reading through the set_rows result rather than the arena makes the append an explicit dependency of the attention, so ordering holds whatever the node order. Measured on a GB300, greedy, median of 5, idle-gated, on top of the codec and elision work: case e2e RTF decoder ITL line 0.0386 -> 0.0396 1.63 -> 1.68 ms paragraph 0.0368 -> 0.0356 1.60 -> 1.55 ms script 0.0368 -> 0.0357 1.59 -> 1.54 ms The line is 2.6% worse and it is worth saying why, because the obvious explanation is wrong: it is not that flash attention reads the whole ring while the old kernel read only the live suffix. Flash attention is *cheaper* on the line (3.43 ms/audio-s) than on the paragraph (3.57). The line simply runs at 37.7% GPU busy against 72%, so it is bound by fixed startup rather than by the decode loop, and this costs it about 2.7 ms of wall on a ~106 ms run. One earlier attempt materialised K and V with ggml_cont_2d before the append, which added 0.99 ms per audio-second and 540 launches and ate the entire win. The rows are already contiguous inside qkv, so a plain 2d view does it; output is bit-identical either way.

Everything in the persistent decoder was written against a constant two CFG lanes: the arena's second dimension, the slot ids, the q view, the append rows, the seeding sources, the output split. The wave scheduler needs two lanes per decoded item rather than two in total, so this threads a lane count through the module and the runtime and expresses each of those in terms of it. No behaviour change: the count is still 2, and the fixed-size arrays that became vectors are filled with exactly what they held before. Verified bit-identical on all three cases -- line, paragraph and a 20-sentence script -- against the previous build. Two of these were latent bugs waiting for a second item rather than straight substitutions. The append rows were literal {ring_head, cache_len + ring_head}, which is a lane stride written out by hand; it is now lane * cache_len + ring_head. The seeding sources were a two-element array of {cond, uncond}, which becomes conditional lanes first and then unconditional -- the order the arena and the guidance split already assume, but which nothing stated.

Proof of life for the wave scheduler, and the measurement that says whether it is worth building. The decode step now runs over 2B guidance lanes rather than 2: conditional items first, then unconditional. x is repeated across the lanes, self-attention already batches over them through the arena and flash attention, cross-attention covers every conditional lane in one call, and the readback takes item 0's pair at lane 0 and lane B. MAGPIETTS_WAVE_PROBE=B fills those lanes with copies of the live item. That is not the wave -- there is no scheduler, no per-item text, and it does B times the work for one output, so end-to-end RTF gets worse. It exists to answer one question: what does a decode step cost as a function of batch? Paragraph, greedy, decoder inter-token latency: B=1 1.55 ms 1x work 1.00x B=2 1.61 ms 2x work 1.04x B=4 1.81 ms 4x work 1.17x B=8 2.00 ms 8x work 1.29x Eight times the decode work for 1.29 times the step. That is the whole thesis of the wave, measured on this tree rather than inferred from ours: the step is dominated by tiny matrix-vector products whose cost is the weight read, and a batch shares it. mul_mat_vec_f is 24.4% of GPU time here over 3,091 launches per audio-second. Correctness. Item 0 is bit-identical at frame 0 for every B, on both the line and the paragraph -- the first difference is always at frame 1 or later, and at B=2 the line comes out the same length. Step-0 exactness is the right gate here rather than a whole-file hash: batching changes which matmul kernel runs, that changes the last bits, and greedy decoding turns any perturbation into a different code sequence. The same sensitivity is why the F32-accumulation and LayerNorm changes could not be gated on output hashes either. With the probe unset the lane count is 2 and output is bit-identical to the previous build on all three cases.

Groundwork for the wave, and a constraint worth stating on its own. Chunk N's text window is not independent of chunk N-1. The history length comes from required_history, which reads attention_prior.lastAttendedAbsolute(), and that is set from the decoder's own cross-attention alignment scores. So the window a chunk is conditioned on depends on where the previous chunk's decode ended up looking. Sequentially that is fine and probably desirable -- a chunk that under-attends gets a longer window to recover. For a wave it is fatal, because the wave decodes those chunks at the same time. --tts.longform-history-tokens N pins the history instead, which removes the dependency. It defaults to -1, the adaptive behaviour, so nothing changes unless it is asked for: verified bit-identical on line, paragraph and a 20-sentence script. --tts.batch-size is the wave's knob and defaults to 1. Above 1 it requires a pinned history and refuses otherwise, with a message that says why rather than silently falling back. Refusing is the point: pinning changes long-form audio whenever the adaptive path would have engaged, so it has to be a decision the caller makes, not one a performance flag makes for them. The decode path is still sequential; this is the configuration surface and the safety check, not the scheduler.

Self-attention batches across items cleanly because they share one K/V layout and one ring. Cross-attention cannot: every chunk in a wave attends to a different text, of a different length, held in a different cache. So it runs one call per item, each on its own column of the hidden state and its own cross-K/V, and the results are concatenated back into the conditional lanes. The module now takes one DecoderCrossKvCache per item and imports all of them. Supplying none keeps the previous behaviour exactly -- the single cache is replicated across the item count, which at one item is what the code did before. The attention prior follows the same shape: [text_len] for one item, [max_text_len, items] for a wave, sliced per item at the point of use. A first version of that helper returned nullptr for the multi-item case, which would have silently dropped the prior the moment a wave ran; it now takes the view it should. Alignment collection stays on item 0. Every item produces alignment, but only the first drives the long-form attention prior, and collecting all of them would change the output shape for no consumer. Verified bit-identical at one item on line, paragraph and a 20-sentence script.

The lane count landed earlier, but every lane still decoded the *same* token, read out the *same* hidden state, and collected alignment from item 0 alone. That was enough to measure how a step scales with batch and not enough to decode two different chunks, which is what a wave is. Four things gain an item axis: tokens [items, stacked_codebooks], so one codebook's item indices are contiguous and a single get_rows embeds the whole wave. Position is shared: items step in lockstep, so one row broadcasts. hidden both guidance halves come out as [n_embd, items] instead of item 0's column. alignment collected per item and stacked into [text_len, items]. Each chunk drives its own attention prior and its own chunk-end detection, so item 0's row cannot stand in for the rest. lanes from a constructor argument rather than an environment variable. MAGPIETTS_WAVE_PROBE goes with it. It replicated one chunk into every slot to time a step before a scheduler existed; its numbers are recorded, and shared tokens are now precisely the thing in the way. Bit-identical at one item on all three benchmark cases -- line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72, unchanged -- across the embedding restructure and repeat_4d -> concat.

Long-form chunks planned up front and decoded in lockstep waves through one graph. It runs to completion, but the audio is wrong, so it is gated off: --tts.batch-size stays 1 by default and the sequential path is bit-identical (line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72). What is here: decoder evalWave() and a second persistent runtime, seeded per item, with one [n_embd,1] hidden output per item per guidance half split inside the captured graph. encoder a pre-pass over every chunk. Chunk N's conditioning splices from chunk N-1's *encoder* output, not its decode, so the whole plan is buildable before any decoding. step per-item sampling, prior, EOS and chunk-end, with finished items holding lockstep by repeating their last frame, and frames buffered and flushed in chunk order. Two real bugs found and fixed on the way. Finished items must keep advancing or the shared ring desynchronises. And a chunk resumes attending where the previous one stopped -- sequentially that carries over from the previous decode, but it is a property of the plan (a chunk ends on the last token of its window, which is the token before the next chunk's first), so a wave can seed it. Without it every chunk crawls through its own history re-speaking it. What is still wrong: chunks that carry history advance attention about five times too slowly, so they run long. Localised, not yet fixed -- MAGPIETTS_WAVE_FORCE=1 runs the wave at width 1 and is equally wrong, so this is the scheduler and not the batching; the conditioning is bit-identical to the sequential path on all five chunks; chunk 0, the only one without history, is correct. Seeding attended_counts_ changes nothing, so the advance gate is not what is holding it back.

The wave batched the main decoder and left the local transformer serial, one call per item per step. At width 8 that was 2.54 ms of a 5.60 ms step -- 45%, scaling linearly with width, and the whole reason the wave was worth only -9.8%. The sampling kernel already indexes logits by blockIdx.x with codebook_offset + c for the RNG and output_offset + c for the result, so it needed no change at all. What was missing was everything around it: graph dec_cond/dec_uncond and prev_token gain a batch axis, and the attention takes its lane count from the tensor rather than a constant, so the conditional columns for every item come first and the unconditional ones after -- the same lane convention the main decoder already uses. cache one K/V history per lane, 2B of them, so no item reads another's codebook history. codes round-major. Round c of a wave of B occupies slots [c*B, c*B+B), which makes the handoff to the next round one contiguous copy rather than one per item, and makes the RNG seed c*B+b, distinct for every (round, item) pair. At batch one that is c, unchanged. chain the composed CUDA graph bakes in the shapes it was built from, so a change of width now invalidates and recomposes it instead of replaying a graph sized for another wave. The scheduler now gathers each group's opening states into one [n_embd, width] pair and makes a single sampler call per step. Measured, greedy, median of 5, GPU idle-gated: case seq wave-8 wave-16 delta (16) line 0.0394 0.0394 0.0395 +0.3% (one chunk) paragraph 0.0356 0.0266 0.0265 -25.6% script 0.0358 0.0240 0.0229 -36.0% Decoder ITL 1.55 -> 0.84 ms. Against stock upstream a5b6953 the stack is now -42.9% on the script case. Audio duration holds at 100.1-100.2 s against the sequential 101.7 s. Bit-identical at batch one on all three cases: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72.

…e step The mask is cache_len x 64 F16 -- 78 KB -- and it was rebuilt on the host and re-uploaded on every decode step. Slots only ever go from dead to live, and exactly one does so per step: the one the ring head is about to append at. So the full mask is written once per seed and each step uploads two bytes. That is a large reduction in blocking transfer but it does not move the wall clock (script RTF 0.0229 either way), which is itself the finding: the step is not transfer-bound. Instrumentation added while establishing that, all behind flags: NEMO_SPEECH_GRAPH_NODES=1 reports the built graph's node count wave_write_step_state / wave_session_run NVTX ranges inside evalWave What they show, at width 16 on the twenty-sentence script: the graph is 4649 nodes against 639 at width 1, the GPU is busy 121 ms of a 1288 ms decode, and session_.run is 4.67 ms of the 4.72 ms step with only ~0.42 ms of kernel time in it. The cost is the sheer number of sequential tiny ops -- roughly 0.25 us of latency each, even inside a captured graph -- and the node count scales with the wave because cross-attention runs once per item. Batching it is the next lever. Bit-identical: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72.

The wave's graph grew with its width because cross-attention ran once per item: 639 nodes at width 1, 4649 at width 16. Profiling found the GPU busy only 121 ms of a 1288 ms decode, so the cost was neither arithmetic nor transfer -- it was the number of sequential tiny ops, about 0.25 us of latency each even inside a captured CUDA graph. Items cannot share a cross-K/V cache, because each attends to different text of a different length. They can share a *padded* one. Every item's K/V now goes into one arena padded to the wave's widest text, gathered once per wave, with an additive mask that is zero inside a chunk's own length and -inf past it. One batched matmul replaces one attention per item and the graph stops growing: 617 nodes at width 16. case seq wave-8 wave-16 delta (16) line 0.0394 0.0394 0.0394 +0.0% (one chunk, control) paragraph 0.0356 0.0220 0.0220 -38.2% script 0.0358 0.0195 0.0176 -50.8% Decoder ITL 1.55 -> 0.61 ms. Against stock upstream a5b6953 that is -56.1% on the script case. Also fixes the local transformer's captured-pointer trap twice more. Its composed chain bakes in the addresses of the hidden tensors it was built against, and the wave allocates a fresh pair per group: group 1 had the same width as group 0, so nothing invalidated and it replayed group 0's pointers, emitting 167 s of audio for a 101 s script. The chain is now invalidated on a change of width or of either hidden tensor's address, and given three eager passes to warm first -- composing before ggml can hand over a capturable template fails once and disables the chain for the whole run. Bit-identical at one item: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72. Script audio holds at 101.5 s against 101.7 s; paragraph comes out 24.8 s against 26.0 s, which wants a listen before this is called done.

A wave only emits once its slowest member finishes, and the scheduler buffered a whole group before handing anything to the codec. On the twenty-sentence script that turned 30 ms to first audio into 492 ms -- fine for batch throughput, useless for streaming. Two changes, both of which our fork already had and I dropped getting the first version working: Chunk 0 decodes alone. Waving from the very start holds the opening audio back by the whole group; after chunk 0 the latency is hidden behind audio the codec is still playing out, so the wave takes everything from chunk 1 on. The chunk at the head of a group streams frame by frame instead of waiting for its own end. Only the head ever does, so the codec's single in-order stream stays in order, and when a head retires the next one is caught up before it takes over. case before after stock paragraph 288.2 ms 37.4 ms 29.9 ms script 492.5 ms 66.3 ms 30.3 ms It costs nothing in throughput -- the script case actually improves, 0.0177 -> 0.0172, because the codec starts working sooner and overlaps more of the decode. Paragraph goes 0.0220 -> 0.0226. The remaining gap to stock on the script case is the encoder pre-pass, which plans all twenty chunks before any decoding starts. Bit-identical on the sequential path: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72.

Found by running a 200-sentence script: peak GPU went from 5.4 GiB sequential to 63.4 GiB at wave width 32. Every chunk in the plan held its own cond_kv and uncond_kv. Those are full-size decoder caches -- n_ctx 2048 x 12 layers x n_embd, 144 MiB each, 288 MiB for the guidance pair -- and the plan kept them for the whole run. At 200 chunks that is 56 GiB of caches whose only job was to seed the wave arena at the start of their group. Release them after the first wave step, along with the chunk's encoder conditioning. From that point the wave's ring owns the history and only n_tokens is read back. Release the cross-K/V when its group retires, which is as long as the wave graph holds pointers into it. 200 sentences, ~1000 s of audio, peak GPU: config before after w=32 cf=32 63.4 GiB 15.7 GiB w=64 cf=64 63.9 GiB 10.9 GiB Throughput and output are unchanged: 0.0074 and 1000.501 s at w=32, 0.0061 and 1006.724 s at w=64.

Self-review. The wave duplicated two blocks of the sequential loop, both of them the fiddly parts, and carried debugging scaffolding that had served its purpose. Extracted, now used by both paths: plan_text_chunk how much already-spoken text to carry into a chunk's window, and what that window is. The sequential version was already a superset -- a wave just passes required_history = 0, which is the adaptive branch it is forbidden from using. advance_chunk_state everything a step implies for one chunk once its codes are sampled: advance the prior, decide whether the chunk reached the end of its text, apply the non-final-EOS suppression rule, split the stacked step into codec frames. The wave had drifted on one detail: it tested min_generated_frames against frames decoded rather than frames emitted. It now uses the sequential rule. Output is unchanged, and the wave gains the verbose attention-prior trace it never had. Removed: MAGPIETTS_WAVE_FORCE isolated batching bugs from scheduling ones; both are found NEMO_SPEECH_GRAPH_NODES the only change to src/runtime/ggml, so the PR no longer touches the shared runtime text_cond_checksum proved wave and sequential conditioning matched, which it did wave chunk/step trace advance_chunk_state logs this properly now two inner NVTX ranges the enclosing range is enough Line count is close to flat -- the extracted functions cost about what the two inline copies did -- but the tricky logic now has one home instead of two, and the diff drops a file. Sequential path bit-identical: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72. Wave unchanged: script 0.0175 at 100.775 s, TTFA 30.3 ms; 200-sentence input 0.0068 at width 64.

…laced Swapping the persistent decoder's attention to ggml_flash_attn_ext left upstream's slot-based cache machinery in place but unread. The compiler had been saying so on every build: slot_ids created per session, filled in set_data, never read cache_meta declared as a graph input, built on the host and uploaded every decode step, never read k, v split_heads views the fused kernel took; flash attention reads the arena instead cache_meta was one of four per-step session inputs, so this also removes a blocking host-to-device transfer from every decode step. ggml_fused_attn_cached now has no caller in decoder.cpp at all; the local transformer remains its only user. The magpietts_fused_cached_attention_available gate stays -- it is NEMO_SPEECH_GGML_PATCHED && is_cuda, which the persistent path still needs for the arena and set_rows. decoder.cpp 2604 -> 2576 lines, no warnings. Bit-identical: line 37b7f9808f3da46f, paragraph 0cd06cc3307442f5, script 5c5d4ebc9e3b9d72. Wave unchanged: script 0.0174, paragraph 0.0226.

Removes the last caller of ggml_fused_attn_cached. Nothing in the repo uses GGML_OP_FUSED_ATTN now, which is the half of ggml-patches/0014-cuda-fused-attention-extensions.patch that exists only for it -- the relpos half is a separate op from patch 0001 and ASR still uses it. The local transformer's cache is simpler than the decoder's: lt_ctx is 10, one slot per codebook round, and beginFrame resets it, so there is no ring to wrap. Round c always writes slot c and reads slots 0..c, so both the append row and the mask are constant per codebook graph. They are filled once at cache init and never uploaded per step, where the fused kernel needed slot ids and a per-round cache state. The K/V arena stays F32. ggml's CUDA flash attention accepts F32 K/V and converts internally, and at ten slots that conversion is not worth a precision change. WHAT THIS COSTS Bit-identity, which was never against a reference -- the old hashes were our own top-of-tree, re-baselined once already when the decoder took flash attention. New hashes, still reproducible run to run: line 0afc4e3a87b69463 paragraph b108af49283f35d8 script 2dbd3bfb55596e25 The greedy code sequence moves, as any arithmetic change makes it: script 101.66 -> 99.43 s, paragraph 25.96 -> 25.40 s, both -2.2%. Sample-wise SNR against the old output is meaningless once the sequence diverges (-3 dB, i.e. a different waveform). Duration and reproducibility are weak-but-positive evidence; a listening check is the real gate and has not been done. Files are in the bench assets as *.ltfa.wav. Throughput is unchanged -- script 0.0174 either way. The local transformer's attention barely registers: at width 16 the whole sampler is 0.70 ms of a 2.43 ms step and its largest kernel is the sampler itself, not attention. This is a fork-surface change, not a speed one.

… stream Two bugs from the correctness review, both reproduced before fixing. STEP BUDGET. The persistent arena is baked_context_length + budget - 1. The prefill takes one slot and each step takes another, so entering step s the ring holds baked + s, and the guard n_tokens_ >= cache_len_ fires at s = budget - 1 -- the last step the loop takes. The single-item path survives it: evalCachedPair resets the runtime and falls through to the non-persistent decoder, which re-prefills and returns a correct frame. A wave has no fallback, so evalWave returns false and the run is cancelled after most of its audio has already streamed. paragraph, --tts.steps 40: before sequential 10.774 s; width 2 "wave decode step 39 failed" after sequential 10.774 s; width 8 10.774 s Fixed at the wave's call site rather than in checked_persistent_cache_len: widening the shared arena changes the ring geometry enough to move the sequential path's output, and that path is bit-identical by contract. The single-item fallback stays as it was -- a silent perf cliff on the last step, not a correctness bug. SAMPLER RNG. Every draw is seeded with (seed, frame_index, round*width + item). The item term separates lanes within a wave, but the wave passed the group-local step as frame_index, so group g and group g' consumed identical uniforms at every (step, round). With the shipped temperature 0.6 / top_k 80 that means chunks 1, 5, 9, 13 at width 4 draw the same random sequence wherever their candidate lists agree. Greedy benchmarks could not show it. Now counts across the whole run. Reported inter-token latency is left per item. It counts frames produced, which is what the metric means; it is simply not comparable across the two paths, and that belongs in the PR body rather than in the code. Sequential path bit-identical: line 0afc4e3a87b69463, paragraph b108af49283f35d8, script 2dbd3bfb55596e25. Wave unchanged: script 0.0174, paragraph 0.0232, ITL 0.70 ms.

Four items from the review. GATE. use_wave has six requirements and only one of them refused loudly. Asking for --tts.batch-size 32 on a CPU device, or with --tts.use-cfg false, gave sequential decode with no message. It now names the requirement that was not met. A single-chunk input is not a failure and stays quiet: there is no wave to form. BATCHED LOCAL TRANSFORMER GATE. use_wave did not require the patched cached attention, which only the batched local transformer needs -- its beginFrame refuses batch > 1 without it. On a CUDA build without NEMO_SPEECH_GGML_PATCHED the run formed group 0 at width 1, then failed on group 1. Now it degrades to sequential with a message. LOCAL TRANSFORMER Q LAYOUT. The permute produced [d_head, n_head, n_q, lanes] where K and V are [d_head, n_ctx, n_head, lanes]. ggml_flash_attn_ext asserts q->ne[2] % k->ne[2] == 0, so this only held at lt_heads == 1, where the permute is a no-op anyway. At lt_heads > 1 it would abort at graph build. Q is now left in the same layout the decoder uses. DOCUMENTATION. Neither --tts.batch-size nor --tts.longform-history-tokens appeared in config/tts.example.yaml, config/server.example.yaml or docs/tts/configuration.md, all of which document chunk-frames. Both are now in all three, with the note that they must be set together. The whole feature is opt-in through these two flags, so undocumented they effectively do not ship. Sequential path bit-identical: line 0afc4e3a87b69463, paragraph b108af49283f35d8, script 2dbd3bfb55596e25. Wave unchanged: script 0.0174, paragraph 0.0232.

Found by running this branch on a GB10 (sm_121). Wave widths above 8 failed the whole synthesis: failed to add GGML child graph to CUDA local sequence: operation not supported -> CUDA local-transformer sampling failed: ... operation not supported -> synthesis failed Two separate things. cudaGraphAddChildGraphNode returns cudaErrorNotSupported (801) for the local transformer's chain at width 12 and above on that architecture; GB300 composes the same chain at width 200. That part is a device limitation and the code already handles it -- it disables composition and falls back to launching the chain eagerly. The failure is that the failed graph call leaves a sticky CUDA error, so the eager fallback inherits it and fails too. A missing optimisation became a dead run, after most of the audio had already streamed. Clearing the error before returning makes the fallback test itself. Same treatment for the instantiate path, which has the same shape. GB10, twenty-sentence script, chunk-frames 16, median of 3: width before after 8 0.0342 0.0342 12 synthesis failed 0.0316 16 synthesis failed 0.0318 32 synthesis failed 0.0293 Against stock a5b6953 on the same box (0.0667) that is 2.28x, up from 1.95x at the width the bug capped us to. No effect on GB300, where composition succeeds: line 0afc4e3a87b69463, paragraph b108af49283f35d8, script 2dbd3bfb55596e25 unchanged.

Every chunk used to open through the single-item path: evalCachedPair filled a fresh pair of full-size K/V caches, the scheduler gathered each column's opening hidden state by a host round trip, and the wave runtime then seeded its arena from those caches. That prefill was 195 ms over 20 chunks, 19% of the producer thread. Prefill the whole group in one graph instead. Every chunk's baked context is the same length, so the sequence is uniform across the batch; only the text differs, and the padded cross arena already covers that. Self-K/V are written straight into the ring the steps append to. Three things fall out rather than being replaced: - the per-chunk staging caches. They existed only to seed the arena, and they were full-size decoder caches -- 288 MiB a chunk for the guidance pair -- so the scheduler had to release them mid-run to keep a long script under control. - the seed graph for waves, and with it the second seed overload. - the host round trip. The prefill writes the [n_embd, items] guidance pair the steps already use. Attention still reads the F32 projection it just produced rather than the F16 ring, which is what the single-item prefill did. The padded cross arena is now a property of being a wave rather than of width, so a one-chunk group takes the same path as a wide one. That is what chunk 0 is. cross_attention_wave takes a query count: the arena does not care how many queries read it, and alignment is still reported off the newest query, so the caller sees the same row either way. The alignment reduction is now shared with the step graph, and normalises the same way the single-item readback did. Twenty-sentence script, greedy, median of five, GPU idle-gated, both arms built and measured in one session: width 16, chunk-frames 16 0.0117 -> 0.0109 width 32, chunk-frames 32 0.0093 -> 0.0083 Opening cost on that input: 195 ms over 20 calls -> 30 ms over 3. Two hundred sentences at width 32, chunk-frames 32: 0.0075 -> 0.0066, and peak device memory 11.2 -> 3.4 GiB. Width now costs a third of what it did, so width 128 fits in less memory than width 32 used to and runs 27% faster. The sequential path is untouched: line 0afc4e3a87b69463, paragraph b108af49283f35d8, script 2dbd3bfb55596e25, and a width-1 long-form run is byte-identical across the two arms.

The wave scheduler's two sampleCuda call sites -- step 0 and the steady state -- were not wrapped in #if defined(MAGPIETTS_CUDA_SAMPLING) the way model.cpp's equivalent paths already are, so a non-CUDA preset failed to compile at all: LocalCodebookSampler has no sampleCuda and MagpieStreamingWorkspace no cudaSampler without it. Reproduced on the cpu-tts preset, which fails with four errors at those two sites and builds clean with this change. The gate already refuses a wave without CUDA sampling, so the #else is unreachable in practice; it reports and cancels rather than falling through, matching the convention at the other guarded call sites. Found while building for macOS/Metal. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Check the return value of ggml_backend_graph_compute in fill_wave_cross.

fill_wave_cross memsets the shared cross-K/V arenas to zero at Lines 946-947 and then relies on this graph to fill them. The status is discarded. If the compute fails, the constructor still completes, prefill and evalWave run against an all-zero cross-K/V arena, and the wave produces wrong audio with no error. The additive mask cannot catch this, because zero K/V is a valid-looking value inside each chunk's own length.

Throw on failure so MagpieDecoder::prefillWave catches it at Line 1730 and falls back to the single-item path.

plan_text_chunk capped the history window by prior_text_tokens -- every token seen so far -- but the history is spliced from the *previous chunk's* encoder output, which reaches back exactly one chunk. The two are unrelated, so as soon as a chunk came out shorter than the next chunk's requested history, the splice asked the cache for tokens it never held and the run died: longform history context cache is too short: need 20 token(s), have 16 The adaptive rule made this reachable on ordinary prose. It caps history by the *current* chunk's length, so a short sentence yields a short window, and the chunk after it -- longer, so allowed a full 20 tokens of history -- asks for more than its predecessor left behind. Found with sentences sampled from public-domain prose, where the tenth percentile is six words. It reproduces on stock: a 32-sentence input dies at chunk 29 of 38. The inlined benchmark never hit it because its shortest sentence is eleven words. Clamp the window by the previous chunk's own length as well. The pinned path was already immune -- pinning history to N makes every later chunk at least N tokens long -- which is why the wave scheduler ran these inputs fine while the sequential path did not. Sequential hashes and wave output are unchanged: line 0afc4e3a87b69463, paragraph b108af49283f35d8, script 2dbd3bfb55596e25, wave 5dfd16e458d295b5. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

plan_text_chunk decides every long-form chunk's text window and both the sequential loop and the wave scheduler run it, so a mistake there is a mistake everywhere. It had no coverage: two copies of this logic had already silently diverged before they were merged, and a miscomputed window killed a run outright on ordinary prose. Eleven cases: the first chunk taking no history, the adaptive cap at 20, required_history raising it, pinning overriding it, the model context bounding the whole window, and the window's contents being the tail of what came before followed by the current chunk in order. Four of them cover the clamp to what the previous chunk can supply. Reverting that clamp fails seven assertions, including the exact shape of the crash: asking for 20 tokens of history where 16 are available. Moves MagpieChunkPlan and plan_text_chunk's declaration to magpietts.h, which already carries magpie_stream_params, so the test can reach them. The function is unchanged.

bench_magpietts.py repeats five sentences, all eleven words or longer. That is convenient and reproducible, but it is not what long-form input looks like, and the difference is not cosmetic: real prose has a tenth percentile near six words and a tail past thirty, which changes two things the repeated text hides. Per-chunk decode length varies far more. A wave steps its group in lockstep until the slowest member finishes, so it pays for its longest chunk: max/mean per-chunk steps is 1.26 on the repeated text against 1.9 at 38 chunks and 3.4 at 150 here. That gap is the single largest remaining cost in the wave, and the old benchmark cannot see it. Short sentences also make short chunks, which is what exposed the long-form history crash fixed earlier in this branch. The repeated text could never produce it. Sentences come from four Project Gutenberg texts pinned by sha256 and cached: Gatsby, Sherlock Holmes, Pride and Prejudice, Alice. Gatsby is there on purpose -- the 19th-century sources skew long alone, and 1920s prose pulls the mean back toward contemporary English. The pool is ~12.3k sentences at mean 17.2 words, median 15, which is the figure usually quoted for English prose. Sampling is seeded, so a given --seed and size list reproduce the same text. Takes --baseline to compare two binaries, and reports CRASH rather than a ratio when one of them cannot complete a case. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
