# v45: v44 + gs12 step compression: diag-team TRSM/SYRK/c2 as 4-warp
# split-tf32 wmma (TRSM staged via private PW; SYRK in-place negated-A
# acc-preload; c2 = T^T x inv11, T restaged ld72). Steps 32->25.5-27.4;
# probe: 2x2048 -22%, 16x512 -18%, 64x256 -17%, 2x4096 -12%, 60x1024 -3%;
# margins unchanged (3.82/7.17/26.8/51.9/13.3). igcp mystery collapsed
# 2.4->0.98 with the c2 mma. Instantiated <8,1,1> (scalar paths compiled out).
# v44: v43 + no-Newton rsqrtf pivots in gsx (probe_gs10: f1/f2 -0.3us each,
# margins unchanged 26-52; -1.5..-2.6% on gs cases) + gsx engine extended
# DOWN to low-batch mid-n (probe_gs11): 64x256 cpm1 117.4 (pan2 164),
# 16x512 cpm8 240.6 (tcx 300.6), 4x1024 cpm16 497.3 (chain 618),
# 60x1024 cpm1 999.4 (tcx 1104.6). Batch gates keep stress cases on the
# old exact paths (n256 batch<32) and respect residency b*(cpm+1)<=148.
# v43: v42 + gsx engine deltas (probe_gs7a/c2/d bisect): w0-only IG copy;
# half-strip team w4-7 (2 strips x 16-row halves, pair counters, consumers
# base 2) with fp16 half-plane published FIRST; two-phase strip MMA --
# left cols (jj<2, kk<32) gated on early sinv00 flag at bar A, right cols
# on full INV64. Probe: 2x2048 1052.2 / 8x2048 1182.5 / 2x4096 2310.9
# (v42: 1167/1288/2548). Plus n32 cp.async 4B stage-in (-1.3us, probe_sm2).
# v40: v39 + engine micro-opts (probe_warp4/5/6): float4 global transfers in
# n32 (19.7->19.3us) and n64 (25.7->22.0us) warp kernels; n256 pan rebuilt as
# double-buffered lookahead (priority tiles bj<=1 into S2, next 64-diag on
# warp 0 concurrent with bj>=2 trailing tiles) + float4 transfers
# (183.9 -> 163.9us). DEAD in probes: reg-direct rows, 2-matrix ILP, no-Newton
# pivots (zero time delta), n128 lookahead/float4, pan w12 (regfile).
# v39: v38 + n256 panel-staged CTA-per-matrix engine (215.6 -> 183.9us,
# batch gate removed — exact substitution TRSM).
# v38: v37 + CUDA warp-per-matrix small-n engine (probe_warp r2/r3): factor
# math register-resident with constexpr template recursion, smem (padded ld)
# only for staging/broadcasts. n32 one warp/matrix smem-staged (49.7->19.7us),
# n64 one warp/matrix register phases (54.2->25.7), n128 one CTA/matrix 4x4
# register blocks (112.3->41.8). Margins 344/879/2162 (exact fp32 warp math).
# v37: v36 + true-fp16-operand trailing GEMMs where the gate allows: giant
# path (all panel/confined/outer SYRK bmms via half scratch; 32768 -17%,
# 16384 -6%, margins bit-identical to tf32 — same 10-bit mantissa) and the
# half outer K=super SYRK at 8x2048 / 2x4096 (probe_fp16 r2).
# (2767.6 vs f128 3034.9 Modal, -8.8%); 640x512 -> diag w1 + apply w1 (1821.6
# vs 1887.6, -3.5%); n32 -> 3D-batched quad kernel, 4 matrices/CTA (49.1 vs
# 51.9, -5.4%; batch%4 gate). Giants confirmed at local opt (nbo4096/nbi2048);
# n64 3D and 1x4096 fused64 probed DEAD.
# v35: v34 + _panel128q fused128 route for 2x4096 (probe_p128, -5%).
# v34: v33 + config reroutes from probe_cfg: 2x2048 -> fusedq S1024 (1270 vs
# 1323 Modal, -4%); 4x1024 -> fusedq S512 (651.5 vs 664.9). 8x2048 keeps S512;
# 16x512 keeps S256 (S128 regressed).
#
# v33: v32 + n128 one-shot quad megakernel. 256x128 routes to _diag128q
# (INV=False), the 128-wide quad-recursive diag kernel (fact64q + quad TRSM/
# SYRK + fact64q on the Schur bottom): 173.2 -> 123.3us on Modal (-29%),
# margin m=2300 (ieee internals). chol_left(128) is dead.
#
# v32: v31 + two-level K-aggregation in the mid-n drivers (probe_2lvl):
# per-step SYRK confined to super-panel columns, one K=SUPER trailing SYRK
# per super (block-rows). The K=64 SYRK C-tile RMW traffic was the mid-n
# wall (qr_v2 panel-width lesson): 640x512 2282 -> 1890 (S128), 60x1024
# 1627 -> 1191 (S256), 8x2048 1969 -> 1572 (S512), 2x2048 -> 1237 (S512),
# 16x512 -> 324 (S256). 4x1024 and n=256 stay flat. Margins identical.
#
# v31: v30 + mid-n rerouting after the quad-diag flip (probe_quad3):
# - 8x2048 -> fusedq megakernel (1970 vs 2556us Modal, -23%): the 4x-cheaper
#   redundant quad diag flips the old 'fusedB loses at batch>=8' verdict.
# - 60x1024 -> separate NB=64 diag64q path (1627 vs 1685): quad diag64 flips
#   v20's NB=128-for-n>=1024 verdict; _diag128/_apply128 are now dead code.
# - 640x512 keeps the separate NB=64 path (fusedq loses at batch 640).
# - 2x2048 -> fusedq (1306 vs 1363 unbatch); 2x4096 stays unbatch (fusedq
#   3666 vs 3225 — 64 panel steps of launch latency don't pay at n=4096).
# - n=256 fusedq gated to batch >= 32: explicit Neumann inverses overflow on
#   ill-conditioned blocks (v30 test FAIL: n256 lowrank batch 4 -> NaN).
#
# v30: v29 + quad retrofit of the 64-level mid-n machinery + n=256 route.
# - _diag64q / _panel64q / _finalize64q rebuild _diag64/_panel64/_finalize64
#   from 16-quads (fact32 = fact16 + inv16 + dots + fact16): 640x512
#   2910 -> 2301us, 16x512 440 -> 352, 4x1024 842 -> 660 (Modal), margins
#   IDENTICAL to the scalar paths (m=1.22 at 640x512).
# - n=256 falls for the first time: fusedB-nb64 with IEEE applies (TF32
#   apply error ~1e-3 exceeds the n=256 gate 20*n*eps = 6.1e-4 — measured
#   FAIL m=0.71; ieee PASS m=4.09). 230us vs torch 370 on Modal.
#
# v29: v28 + small-n quad recursion + fusedB routing for 4x1024.
# - n=32/n=64 scalar POTF2 loops are instruction-bound (full-tile masked ops
#   per iteration). One more recursion level — fact32 = fact16 + inv16 +
#   16x16 dots + fact16 — cuts scalar element-ops 4x. n32: one-CTA 2x16-quad
#   kernel (69.5 -> 59.3us Modal). n64: one-CTA 4x4-grid-of-16-quads kernel
#   (torch 135 -> ~60us Modal; first time n64 beats torch).
# - 4x1024 routes to the _panel64 fusedB megakernel (nb=64): 826.5us vs
#   1019.7 (fusedA nb128) on Modal. 60x1024 stays on fusedA nb128.
#
# v28: v27 + giant-path trsm kill. probe_giant micro-bench: the giant driver's
# serial panel components (torch potrf(2048) 665us + solve_triangular-vs-eye
# 898us per step) are ~85% of runtime at n=8192, ~50% at n=32768. The trsm is
# replaced by a divide-and-conquer block-triangular inverse: one Triton kernel
# (_inv128b) batch-inverts the diagonal 128-blocks of L_kk (exact Neumann
# doubling, ieee dots), then log2(nb/128) levels of 2 batched TF32 bmms build
# the off-diagonal blocks bottom-up via inv([[A,0],[C,B]]) = [[iA,0],
# [-iB C iA, iB]]. ~10 launches instead of trsm's serial crawl.
# Everything below n=8192 identical to v27 (rank 1, 1263.2us).
