plan.rs

//! The CPU backend: graphs lowered to a list of steps over one arena, run on a persistent pool.
//!
//! Lowering resolves every value to an arena offset, every weight to its converted tensor and every
//! RoPE base to its table, and checks every shape, so running a step is a match and a call. The
//! arena, the per worker attention scratch and the per batch index tables are sized for the bucket
//! when the plan is built, and nothing on the run path allocates.
//!
//! Each step runs on the rows the batch has rather than the bucket's padded count. Padding only
//! matters to a backend that captures a fixed shape, and on the CPU it would be wasted work. The
//! kernels are the reference ones, so a plan gives the same bits as [`Compat`](crate::Compat).
//!
//! A backend made [`with_int8`](CpuBackend::with_int8) runs the GEMMs over token rows in INT8
//! instead, which is every GEMM of the encoder and the decision head. The scorer and the act head
//! run on a row per option or per question and stay in FP32, as spec/10-cpu.md has it.
