December 2024 focused on advancing quantization accuracy and reliability in ROCm/triton, strengthening the test framework, and ensuring CI stability and upstream alignment. Delivered int8 FA/KV scaling enhancements with in-test tiling and p_scale handling, added FP32 scaling support, and extended test coverage with no-causal and isolated tests. Performed upstream synchronization with FA-int8 branch and implemented CI/test infrastructure improvements (pre-commit, code cleanup, and enabling full test suite). Major bugs fixed include ref_out order alignment, disabling gradient for testing to save memory, applying code-review fixes, and removing deprecated autotune config. These changes reduce production risk in quantized paths, improve numerical precision, and accelerate development with stronger CI and upstream collaboration.

November 2024: Delivered production-ready INT8 per-channel quantization for the Flash Attention kernel in ROCm/triton, including per-channel scales, a de-quantization path, and dedicated tests. The test suite was streamlined by removing an obsolete INT8 test to improve validation reliability. No major defects reported; focus was on feature delivery with emphasis on performance, memory efficiency, and maintainability. This work strengthens ROCm/triton's low-precision inference capabilities and expands deployment potential for latency-sensitive workloads. Technologies demonstrated include low-level Triton kernel development, per-channel quantization, and robust testing practices.
