Apr 1, 2025For 2025-04, TT-Metal delivered a stride toward reliability, performance, and new compute capabilities in tenstorrent/tt-metal. Key features landed include advanced data-type support and expanded compute paths, while CI/runtime stability and test infrastructure were strengthened to reduce risk and accelerate validation. Highlights include: - BFP8 QKV output and AR dtype support, enabling bf16 QKV paths and broader compatibility. - BFP8 SDPA and concat head support to address bad-token issues and improve throughput. - New capabilities: 2D plus one operation and enabling 4-link CCLS for broader compute graphs. - AllReduce improvements: output dtype support in minimal AllReduce and across the full path, increasing dtype flexibility and correctness. - Test infrastructure and performance enhancements: IRAM-enabled TG quick tests, enhanced tracing in ND tests, increased testing scale (50 tokens on 6U), larger global constant buffer, and related DRAM prefetcher performance features. Overall, these changes improved model accuracy, hardware utilization, and validation confidence, while reducing production risk and speeding iteration cycles.
