This PR adds FP8 support in FA3 to speed up compute-bound prefill kernels. It follows up on #869.
1. Bug fixes
num_heads
andseq_len
.2. New features
mainloop_sparse.cuh
.BatchPrefillWithPagedKVCache
BlockSparseAttentionWrapper
: support sparse and quantized attention3. Python JIT interface
BlockSparseAttentionWrapper
single_prefill_with_kv_cache
Note: Performance is on par with #869. Need tuning.
