***Fast exact DeBERTa-style disentangled attention in Triton.***
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
DisentangledFlash is an inference-oriented implementation of bidirectional
|
|
28
|
+
DeBERTa-v2/v3 disentangled self-attention.
|
|
29
|
+
|
|
30
|
+
The Triton kernel is inspired by [FlashAttention](https://github.com/Dao-AILab/flash-attention)'s tiling, IO-aware computations, and online softmax without memory materialization, while its relative position encoding implementation is inspired by [FlexAttention](https://pytorch.org/blog/flexattention/). It fuses QK, relative-score lookup, factorized padding-mask application, online softmax, and PV without materializing a `[B, H, L, L]` attention tensor. C2P/P2C projection score GEMMs remain regular PyTorch GEMMs over the pruned active relative-position slots.
|
|
31
|
+
|
|
32
|
+
The PyTorch-optimized (`torch`) backend is constructed by optimizing operations, employing smart caching techniques, and leveraging fused QKV projection.
|
|
33
|
+

|
+
|
|

|

## Status
|
|
36
|
+
|
|
37
|
+
- NVIDIA CUDA + Triton
|
|
38
|
+
- inference only
|
|
39
|
+
- DeBERTa-v2/v3-style C2P/P2C disentangled attention
|
|
40
|
+
- FP16, BF16, strict FP32, and optional fast FP32/TF32 mode
|
|
41
|
+
- head dimensions 32, 64, and 128
|
|
42
|
+
- factorized 2-D padding masks
|
|
43
|
+
- prepared fixed-length buckets with dynamic batch size
|
|
44
|
+
- **fused QKV projection is always enabled** for the PyTorch/Triton backends
|
|
45
|
+
|
|
46
|
+
Training/backward is not implemented. CPU/MPS use the PyTorch backend
|
|
47
|
+
for development/benchmarking, not the Triton kernel.
|
|
48
|
+
|
|
49
|
+
While currently tailored to DeBERTa-v2/v3, the kernel and caching abstractions are designed to be extensible to other architectures requiring factorized relative-position or disentangled attention schemes in the future.
|
|
50
|
+
|
|
51
|
+
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|
52
|
+
> **GPU Compatibility**: The Triton kernel has been validated and benchmarked primarily on the **NVIDIA RTX 6000 Ada** (Compute Capability 8.9). Further testing, benchmarking, and autotuning calibration are required to ensure optimal performance on other GPU models and hardware architectures. **Pull requests, benchmark results, and configurations for other GPUs are highly welcome!**

## Install
|
|
55
|
+
|
|
56
|
+
Use a PyTorch build appropriate for your CUDA environment, then install this
|
|
57
|
+
repository editable while developing:
|
|
58
|
+
|
|
59
|
+
```bash
|
|
60
|
+
pip install -e ".[dev]"
|
|
61
|
+
```
|
|
62
|
+
|
|
63
|
+
For the pretrained Hugging Face MNLI parity benchmark:
|
|
64
|
+
|
|
65
|
+
```bash
|
|
66
|
+
pip install -e ".[dev,hf]"
|
|
67
|
+
```
|
|
68
|
+
|
|
69
|
+
`sentencepiece` and `protobuf` are included in the `hf` extra because the
|
|
70
|
+
DeBERTa-v2 tokenizer uses a SentencePiece `spm.model`.
|
|
71
|
+
|
|
72
|
+
## Hugging Face usage
|
|
73
|
+
|
|
74
|
+
```python
|
|
75
|
+
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification
|
|
76
|
+
from disentangled_flash import optimize_deberta
|
|

`optimize_deberta()` replaces only the DeBERTa encoder attention path. The
|
|
91
|

existing layer output, residual, FFN, convolution, classifier, and checkpoint
|
|
92
|
+
parameter names are preserved.
|
|
93
|
+
|
|
94
|
+
For lower-level experiments, `enable_deberta_inference(..., backend="optimized")`
|
|
95
|
+
selects the PyTorch backend instead of Triton.

## CUDA benchmark
|
|
98
|
+
|
|
99
|
+
Attention-only:
|
|
100
|
+
|
|
101
|
+
```bash
|
|
102
|
+
python -m benchmarks.benchmark_cuda --scope attention
|
|
103
|
+
```
|
|
104
|
+
|
|
105
|
+
Full encoder:
|
|
106
|
+
|
|
107
|
+
```bash
|
|
108
|
+
python -m benchmarks.benchmark_cuda \
|
|
109
|
+
--scope encoder \
|
|
110
|
+
--implementations original,optimized,triton \
|
|
111
|
+
--dtypes fp16,fp32 \
|
|
112
|
+
--output encoder_attention_cuda_results.json
|
|
113
|
+
```
|
|
114
|
+
|
|
115
|
+
The original backend remains unfused and acts as the reference baseline. The
|
|
116
|
+
PyTorch and Triton backends always use one packed QKV projection.
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
## Pretrained task parity + speed
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
The MNLI script loads `microsoft/deberta-v2-xlarge-mnli`, compares the untouched
|
|
121
|
+
Hugging Face model with the same checkpoint using DisentangledFlash, verifies
|
|
122
|
+
logits/probabilities/hidden-state parity, and benchmarks the full classification
|
|
123
|
+
forward. Tokenization and model loading are excluded from timing.
|
|
124
|
+
|
|
125
|
+
Defaults are batch size 8 and 500 measured iterations:
|
|
126
|
+
|
|
127
|
+
```bash
|
|
128
|
+
python -m benchmarks.parity_pretrained_mnli
|
|
129
|
+
```
|
|
130
|
+
|
|
131
|
+
## Hostile CUDA validation
|
|
132
|
+
|
|
133
|
+
```bash
|
|
134
|
+
python -m validation.validate_cuda
|
|
135
|
+
```
|
|
136
|
+
|
|
137
|
+
The validation matrix covers FP16/BF16/FP32, boundary sequence lengths, several
|
|
138
|
+
padding patterns, and C2P/P2C position modes while reporting raw max/mean errors.
|
|
139
|
+
|
|
140
|
+
> [!NOTE]
|
|
141
|
+
> **Test Coverage**: The current test suite is basic and incomplete. Expanding testing to cover more edge cases, parameters, and configurations is actively planned and is work to be done.
|
|
142
|
+
|
|
143
|
+
## Autotuning
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
The autotuning is to be optimized in the future as it is currently greedy (evaluating too many configuration candidates). The next step is to run offline calibration sweeps per GPU family to determine and pre-select the fastest block configurations, significantly reducing runtime compilation and tuning overhead.
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
Do not treat the current candidate table as a universal final table for every GPU.

## Results
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
DisentangledFlash was benchmarked against:
|
|
153
|
+
|
|
154
|
+
- the original Hugging Face DeBERTa encoder,
|
|
155
|
+
- the PyTorch implementation,
|
|
156
|
+
- and the Triton DisentangledFlash implementation.
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158
|
+
The benchmark covers the full 12-layer encoder, not only the isolated attention operator.

### Overall encoder speedup
|
|
180
|
+
|
|
181
|
+
Across all 28 tested `(batch size, sequence length)` configurations per precision:
|
|
182
|
+
|
|
183
|
+
| Precision | Geomean speedup vs. Hugging Face | Geomean speedup vs. PyTorch impl. | Best speedup vs. PyTorch impl. |

|
|
187
|
+
|
|
188
|
+
The advantage over the PyTorch implementation increases substantially for longer sequences, where the quadratic attention matrix becomes increasingly expensive.

At `B=16, L=512`, DisentangledFlash reduces encoder latency from **53.44 ms to 27.19 ms** relative to the PyTorch path, corresponding to approximately a **49% latency reduction**.
|

|
|
211
|

### FP32 encoder latency
|
|
212
|

|
|
243
|
+
|
|
244
|
+
The comparison against the PyTorch implementation is particularly useful: both implementations already avoid several pieces of Hugging Face encoder overhead, so the increasing gap at long sequence lengths isolates the benefit of the streaming Triton attention path more clearly.
|
|
245
|
+
|
|
246
|

### Peak GPU memory
|
|
247
|
+
|
|
248
|
+
At batch size 32, the memory advantage grows with sequence length:

This behavior is expected because DisentangledFlash performs tiled streaming softmax and does not materialize the full `[B, H, L, L]` attention score/probability tensor.
|
|
269
|
+
|
|
270
|
+
### Numerical accuracy
|
|
271
|
+
|
|
272
|
+
DisentangledFlash was compared directly against the original Hugging Face implementation at both the isolated attention level and across the full 12-layer DeBERTa encoder.
|
|
273
|
+
|
|
274
|
+
| Precision | Level | Max absolute error | Mean absolute error |

| FP16 | Full encoder | **1.56e-2** | **1.12e-3** |
|
|
278
|
+
| FP32 | Attention | **4.89e-9** | **1.79e-10** |
|
|
279
|
+
| FP32 | Full encoder | **7.57e-6** | **6.26e-7** |
|
|
280
|
+
|
|
281
|
+
The maximum absolute error is the worst observed value across all tested batch-size and sequence-length configurations. The mean absolute error is averaged across the 28 tested configurations for each precision and level.
|
|
282
|
+
|
|
283
|
+
### Pretrained-model parity
|
|
284
|
+
|
|
285
|
+
Task-level parity was additionally tested with the pretrained `microsoft/deberta-v2-xlarge-mnli` checkpoint.
|
|
286
|
+
|
|
287
|
+
The original Hugging Face model and the same checkpoint with its DeBERTa encoder replaced by DisentangledFlash achieved **full task-level parity** on the parity test.
|
|
288
|
+
|
|
289
|
+
The test verifies:
|
|
290
|
+
|
|
291
|
+
- final MNLI predictions,
|
|
292
|
+
- classification logits and probabilities,
|
|
293
|
+
- final encoder hidden states,
|
|
294
|
+
- and the complete sequence-classification inference path.
|
|
295
|
+
|
|
296
|
+
This test exercising a real pretrained DeBERTa model rather than only synthetic attention tensors.
