# VARIANT (cuda-graph): the current submission.py + CUDA-graph caching to recover
# kernel-launch overhead. Manually submittable.
# Depends on the harness calling custom_kernel repeatedly in one process (warm). ---
# VARIANT (fill-fix): replaces `V[:, idx, idx] = 1.0` (a per-block CPU<->CUDA scalar
# copy) with an on-device `V.diagonal(...).fill_(1.0)`. Same math/correctness; removes
# the copy on every block -> ~2.6% on 512x640 (weight 4) + helps other shapes. Harness-
# independent. Manually submittable. ---
# VARIANT of runs/submission.py: + batch-aware panel num_warps (nw=4 for high-batch in
# _panel_qr_t). Measured ~2.5% geomean over the champion (512x640 -6.6%), correctness
# IDENTICAL (num_warps doesn't change the math; all gate cases incl ill-cond n=512 PASS).
# Manually submittable. The ONLY diff vs submission.py is the nw line in _panel_qr_t.
# ---
# SQUEEZE VARIANT of runs/submission.py: ONLY change is 2048x8 outer block O=64->32
# (the single reliable win from an exhaustive interleaved-A/B knob sweep on B200:
# panel nw, block size, 1024x60 dispatch, 4096x2 geqrf-vs-blocked all already optimal).
# Marginal (~0.1-0.5% geomean; 2048x8 is weight 1/12) but real + correctness-preserving.
# Manually submittable. ---
# HAND-BUILT CHAMPION (supersedes cid8). ~7-9% faster than cid8 on B200 (measured
# via Modal): 512x640 12915->11289 (-12.6%), 1024x60 9707->8398 (-13.5%),
# 176x40 -12%, 352x40 -10%; weighted 12-entry geomean ~6499->~5917 us. 22/22 correct.
# APPROACH: triton-fused-panelT-hybrid-householder
# RATIONALE: B200 profiling showed cid8's bottleneck is the SERIAL Triton panel
# (~40%) + the SEPARATE compact-WY T-build kernel (~19%), NOT the GEMM (the 4090
# had misled us). Fix: for the high-batch families (384<=n<1536: the 512x640 &
# 1024x60 shapes, 7 of 12 ranked entries) use a single-level blocked Householder
# whose panel kernel ALSO builds the compact-WY T in-register, reusing the
# v_k.tile inner products `w` it already computes -- this folds the ~19% T-build
# into the panel almost for free (and drops the VtV bmm). For n>=1536 low-batch
# large-n (2048x8) the single-level trailing is too narrow, so keep cid8's
# two-level blocking; geqrf for n>=2560; cid8 plain path for tiny n (<64, where the
# matrix is one panel and the fused T is wasted). tf32 trailing only for n>=1024.

# --- PER-SHAPE PANEL ROUTING (clone for the big shapes, gluon for the tiny ones):
# The plain-Triton single-CTA panel CLONE (_cpanel_kernel) is the global default panel: on the
# big high-batch shapes (512/1024/2048/4096) the current Triton auto-scheduler BEATS gluon's
# explicit layout (full-QR 512x640 -14.2%, 1024 -3.5% vs the old gluon champion; weighted geomean
# -4.97%). BUT on the TINY 176/352 panels the gluon single-CTA panel is still faster (popcorn
# anchor-matched: clone 176=195us vs gluon 184us, a +4.6-6.5% clone regression). So lever 1 routes
# ONLY the small shapes (n<384) through the gluon panel via _panel_small (with a CLONE fallback for
# images where gluon won't JIT, e.g. the fork triton) and keeps the clone everywhere else. Net vs
# the clone-only submission: 176 -4.6%, 352 ~-0.6% (popcorn anchor-matched ~17.2/17.3ms), big shapes
# unchanged -> recovers the small-shape regression for ~+0.4% geomean. Gate 22/22 PASS on popcorn.
#
# --- Plain-Triton single-CTA panel CLONE (B200): IDENTICAL math to _gpanel_kernel /
# _panel_qr_t_kernel (validated bit-for-bit: max|dH/dtau/dT|=0 vs the gluon math across
# well/ill/band/rowscale/rankdef; recon ~1e-6, gate 22/22 PASS), but written as a plain
# @triton.jit kernel (NO gluon, NO explicit BlockedLayout). MEASURED on Modal B200 (fork
# triton 3.6.0+fb.beta): the current Triton auto-scheduler now BEATS gluon's explicit layout
# on this serial reduction-heavy panel -- isolated panel 512x640 ~-48% (107.3->56.2us),
# 1024x60 ~-43% (60.2->34.4us) vs the gluon panel. Full-QR 512x640 -14.2% (gate 22/22),
# weighted geomean -4.97%; all other shapes neutral. Tied-to-faster than gluon on triton
# 3.4.0/4090 too (clone/gluon 1.00x@512, 0.93x@1024) -> portable, no-downside drop-in for
# _gpanel_kernel. (The gluon panel's old ~40% edge over plain Triton evaporated in current
# triton's scheduler.) Pure standard @triton.jit -> imports on both fork + mainline triton.
