1//! Log-Linear Attention (Han Guo et al., ICLR 2026).
2//!
3//! Replaces the single fixed-size recurrent state of linear attention
4//! (RetNet, GLA, GatedDeltaNet, …) with an O(log T) hierarchy of
5//! states organized by a Fenwick-tree decomposition. Compute per
6//! token is O(log T); total compute is O(T log T) — strictly between
7//! linear-attention's O(T) and softmax attention's O(T²).

14//! # Mathematical form (paper eq. 6, 9, 11)
15//!
16//! For a query at time `t+1` and the prefix of `t+1` tokens already
17//! seen:
18//!
19//! ```text
20//! S^(ℓ)_t = Σ_{s ∈ B^(ℓ)_t} v_s · k_s^T (per-level state)
21//! λ_t = bounded_mix(W_λ · x_t) (level weights)
22//! o_t = Σ_{ℓ=0..max_levels-1} λ_t^(ℓ) · q_t^T · S^(ℓ)_t
23//! ```
24//!
25//! where `B^(ℓ)_t` is the Fenwick-tree bucket at level ℓ at time `t`
26//! and `bounded_mix` is the softplus-softmax mix from
27//! `streaming_primitives::bounded_mix` (paper §3.2: ensures Σ λ ≤ 1
28//! for output bounding).
29//!
30//! # Inner update rule
31//!
32//! Each leaf bucket is created via the outer product `v · k^T`
33//! (paper §2.1 — the leaf is a single observation). The wrapping
34//! attention mode ([`AttentionMode`]) is exposed as the *inner*
35//! update rule that the paper allows you to plug in: GLA,
36//! GatedDeltaNet, RetNet, etc. In the streaming form (no chunkwise
37//! parallel scan), the inner rule influences only the projection of
38//! `x_t` into `(k, v, q)` and any per-token preprocessing (key
39//! L2-norm for delta-rule families); the leaf push and the
40//! Fenwick-tree merging are independent of inner choice. See R1
41//! §3.2-3.5 for the integration argument.
42//!
43//! # `max_levels` capacity (paper-specified bound)
44//!
45//! `max_levels = ⌊log₂(T_max)⌋ + 1`. Default 32 covers streams up
46//! to 2³² ≈ 4 billion tokens (R1 §3.5 recommendation). State memory
47//! is `max_levels * d_k * d_v * n_heads * 8 bytes` per layer; this
48//! is the constant-shape advertisement of `state()`, NOT a
49//! per-token average.
50//!
51//! # Why pad to `max_levels`, not `popcount(t)`?
52//!
53//! Paper §3.4 / R1 §3.4: streaming consumers (RLS readout,
54//! diagnostic monitors) require constant-length state vectors. A
55//! popcount-sized state changes shape every token. Padding makes
56//! `state().len()` an invariant of the layer config, not a function
57//! of `t`. The cost is `max_levels - popcount(t)` zero matrices —
58//! cheap and stable.
59//!
60//! # Output bounding
61//!
62//! The λ-weighted output is passed through `tanh` before return,
63//! per the AGENTS.md "Bounded readout features" principle: anything
64//! feeding RLS must be bounded. Even with `Σ λ ≤ 1`, the inner
65//! `q^T S^(ℓ)` can grow arbitrarily; tanh maps R → (-1, 1).
66//!
67//! # Online training (streaming SGD)
68//!
69//! The fixed-weight forward pass alone cannot reproduce the paper's
70//! headline MQAR recall — that result requires trained Q/K/V/λ
71//! projections. To close the v10 discipline gap (every neural arch
72//! in irithyll trains online), this module exposes
73//! [`LogLinearAttention::train_one`] which performs one streaming
74//! SGD step on the prediction-target loss against a `d_value`
75//! target. Update derivation:
76//!
77//! ```text
78//! # Forward (POST-update query — credits W_k, W_v through current leaf)
79//! k = W_k x, v = W_v x, q = W_q x
80//! λ_raw = W_λ x + bias_λ
81//! λ = softplus_softmax_mix(λ_raw, τ)
82//! push_leaf(k, v) # advance Fenwick state INCLUDING (k, v)
83//! z_ℓ = q^T S^(ℓ) # length d_v
84//! o_pre = Σ_ℓ λ_ℓ · z_ℓ
85//! o = tanh(o_pre)
86//!
87//! # Loss & gradients
88//! L = ½ ||o − y||²
89//! δ = (o − y) ⊙ (1 − o²) # through tanh, length d_v
90//! dL/dλ_ℓ = δ · z_ℓ # scalar per level
91//! dL/dq = Σ_ℓ λ_ℓ (S^(ℓ) δ) # length d_k
92//! dL/dW_q = (dL/dq) x^T
93//! dL/dλ_raw_j = (σ(λ_raw_j/τ)/(τ·sum_softplus)) · (dL/dλ_j − Σ_i λ_i dL/dλ_i)
94//! dL/dW_λ = (dL/dλ_raw) x^T
95//! ```
96//!
97//! The current leaf's contribution at level `ℓ_landed` is `λ_{ℓ_landed} · (q · k) · v`
98//! (TTT-style local credit, Sun et al. 2024 — credit-assign only the
99//! freshly written leaf), giving:
100//!
101//! ```text
102//! dL/dv = λ_{ℓ_landed} · (q · k) · δ # length d_v
103//! dL/dk = λ_{ℓ_landed} · (v · δ) · q # length d_k
104//! dL/dW_v = (dL/dv) x^T
105//! dL/dW_k = (dL/dk) x^T
106//! ```
107//!
108//! L2-normalization on K (delta-family inner rules) is an irithyll
109//! convention. The streaming gradient applies the full L2-norm Jacobian
110//! transpose to convert `dL/dk_for_leaf → dL/dk_raw` so SGD descends on
111//! `W_k` in the correct direction:
112//!
113//! ```text
114//! dL/dk_raw[i] = (1/||k||) · (dL/dk_norm[i] − k_norm[i]·(k_norm·dL/dk_norm))
115//! ```
116//!
117//! Without this Jacobian the W_k gradient can have the wrong sign on
118//! delta-family inner modes (verified against finite-difference; see
119//! `diag_log_linear_grad_check`).
