Stage roots materialized after the shell claim
When a root is materialized after the GRAPH shell wins NONE -> EARLY_DISPATCH_STAGING, graph_incremental_publish() skips it. The one-time stage_graph_roots_early() scan cannot see it, so graph_route_ready_roots() later sends it through the normal ready queue without ED_FLAG_CANDIDATE. This loses the intended early staging. When the shell remains staged, mark and enqueue each newly materialized root before graph_route_ready_roots() runs. Preserve route_cursor so normal routing remains exactly once. Apply this correction in both mirrored scheduler headers.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Skip non-dispatchable roots before setting ED_FLAG_CANDIDATE.
stage_graph_roots_early can stage an AIC/AIV/MIX root without checking its predicate. If the predicate later fails, push_ready_routed calls try_early_dispatch_release first. After all logical_block_num blocks are staged, it returns true, so the root bypasses dummy_ready_queue and its body can run on AICore. DUMMY roots also enter an early-dispatch queue that run_staging_order never drains. Skip ResourceShape::DUMMY roots and roots with failed predicates before setting the flag in both scheduler variants.

All nine hold up. I checked each against the code rather than taking them, and none was a false positive — ① and ② in particular are defects I would not have found from the passing suite, since both fail silently. Fixed in b28f3b9. ①③④ — one fix. Took the suggested shape: the root verdict moves into That site is single-owner and runs strictly before any path can route the root, which is what removes ③ — setting the flag at staging time did not fix the failure mode described in the PR body, it turned it from deterministic into a race, exactly as you say. And it can apply the same two terms the recorded conjunction applies to the task itself, which is ①:
② — widened to The comment and ⑦ — the wide-row case is now a test, and I verified it fails without the fix. I tried a table-driven test over all three root kinds against hand-built Definitions first and could not get ⑤⑥ — both stale, both fixed. ⑨ — real, and the comment is corrected. Re-verified: C++ unit tests 140/140, a2a3 The hardware A/B in the description was measured before these fixes. The device-visible change since then is that DUMMY and predicated roots are no longer staged, which the qwen body has none of, but I will re-run it rather than assume the number carries. |

All seven verified against the code; all seven were true. Fixed in ① Predicated root had no assertion. Confirmed: every ② Shell qualification had no unit test. Confirmed: all eight existing fixtures exercise ③ Stale comment. Fixed on both arches. It now says the verdict is the host's for a task it submitted and materialization's for a body root, and names the condition under which a root gets one. ④ Took the behaviour change rather than the comment. That this is load-bearing is not an argument: the pre-existing This also retires an idea I had floated separately — hoisting ⑤ Confirmed the assert was deleted by this PR. ⑥ Filed as #2184, not fixed here. Agreed the path is newly live. Writing a scene test for it means new orchestration plus kernels on both arches, and the questions it raises — what a ⑦ PR body updated. Test counts, the new coverage, and the #2184 gap. The hardware A/B is running now on qwen decode — the earlier numbers predate the last two review rounds and no longer describe this device behaviour, so I will post the fresh ones rather than carry them forward. 140/140 C++ UTs, a2a3 sim 12 passed / 7 skipped, a5 sim 13 passed. |
Hardware A/Ba2a3 device 4 under one Device is the column to read: the host column carries Python dispatch overhead and swings +-5% between repetitions on the short cases.
The non-graph cases sit at or below that spread with mixed signs, with one exception worth naming: These numbers replace the earlier -1.86% / -1.57% I quoted. That measurement predates the last two review rounds, which changed what the device actually does — DUMMY and predicated roots are no longer staged, and roots under a shell the host did not qualify are no longer flagged at all — so it no longer describes this branch. |

Thanks — the verification depth here is unusual and it caught two things I had wrong. ② The diagnosis is right, the fix would not close the path — and one of my own comments is whyAdding consumer.task_attrs.requires_sync_start() ? early_sync_start_queue : early_dispatch_queues[shape]An in-graph non-root gets And the path is already live on the measured workload. I think the reason the proposed fix looks sufficient is a comment I wrote in this PR: That "only" is false twice over — a top-level candidate fills it (that is what On why I am leaving the behaviour alone rather than closing it: the sync-start drain never resolves a task through the task table. The pop validates by comparing the tag against the slot's own descriptor ( So what is missing is an asserting test, not first validation. #2184 owns it, together with the spec question of what a ⑦ Correct, and it is worse than a loose phraseThe comment named the wrong event. Roots are routed by the shell's activation — producers complete, ⑤ Correct, and I had it wrong in my headI assumed the GRAPH branch not enqueueing meant the shell never entered the ED state machine. It does: the branch CASes ① DocAdded a section under Scheduler flow covering both directions early dispatch enters a body and who decides each — the shell's submit-time qualification, and the root verdict materialization creates rather than replays — plus the queue fork. The Definition bullet now says the recorded verdict covers non-root tasks only. ③ ④ ⑥ deferred
⑧Noted as a standing cost, not a one-off. Fair.

Reversing my own call on ④ — it is in, as I had deferred it as "net-new rejection logic". Checking the field properly undercut that: Your framing was right and the exit is the non-root one, not if ((tasks[consumer].ed_flags & ED_FLAG_CANDIDATE) != 0 &&
(begin == end || tasks[consumer].predicate_slot != 0 ||
ActiveMask(tasks[consumer].active_mask).to_shape() == ResourceShape::DUMMY)) {
return false;
}It sits in the CSR loop rather than the task loop because the row-emptiness term needs
140/140 C++ UTs, a2a3 sim 12 passed / 7 skipped, a5 sim 13 passed. Still deferred, unchanged: ② (behaviour, #2184 owns the spec question), ③ (behaviour; counter before retry), ⑥ (cosmetic). The hardware A/B stands as posted. |
Early dispatch reached only top-level tasks. It now also covers a Graph body's internal edges and the edge from an ordinary task into a Graph, which together leave one direction unhandled: a Graph as a producer, since a shell publishes no placement of its own for a consumer to bet on. **In-graph to in-graph.** The publish chain hw-native-sys#2095 built is reused, not forked. Nothing about the mechanism changes: a candidate hangs on its deepest unpublished producer, a producer that places its last logical block seals the chain, and detached waiters rescan and pre-stage. The cohorts differed only in where the fanin row lives and where the states do, and both were already made to match — the row by hw-native-sys#2144's sorted CSR, the states by hw-native-sys#2159's per-execution array — so three call sites take a cohort and the rest is shared. in_graph_execution_of names the cohort once, returning null for a GLOBAL task and for a GRAPH shell, which is a task of the run despite carrying a graph_context; complete_task routes on that same pair. Registration happens at materialization, where a body's tasks are already walked to hang each non-root on its first unmet producer. That point is single-owner per graph, so no peer can register the same task — a stronger guarantee than the top-level intake has. The completion path seals a tracked in-graph producer for the reason the global one does: COMPLETED >= PUBLISHED, so a producer that never publishes (a DUMMY, or one a predicate retired) still releases its waiters. Materialization also copies the Definition's ed_flags onto the slot, consuming the verdicts hw-native-sys#2144 recorded and left inert. **Ordinary task into a Graph.** A shell qualifies by the top-level rule minus the terms that describe dispatching to cores, since it has no predicate, no shape, and occupies no core: producers alone decide it. What its release does is stage the body's roots, each an ordinary AICore task with its own mask and blocks, gated exactly like any pre-staged task. They ring when the shell's real completion routes it through push_ready_routed, so the data dependency the shell stands for is still honoured — the shell's PUBLISHED buys placement, and only its COMPLETED launches. A root carries no host verdict, because qualification needs a producer to bet on and a root has none inside the body, so staging sets ED_FLAG_CANDIDATE on it first. push_ready_routed reads that flag as "this task may hold a staging claim, so check for a release", which is true of a root from that point on. Without it a staged root is gated and never rung, and the run ends in SIMPLER_ERROR_SCHEDULER_TIMEOUT. The graph_execution scene tests flag the seed task that feeds the Graph shells, so onboard CI exercises the ordinary-to-Graph edge rather than only the sim.

Early dispatch reached only top-level tasks. This extends it to a Graph body's internal edges and to the edge from an ordinary task into a Graph. One direction is deliberately left out: a Graph as a producer, since a shell publishes no placement of its own for a consumer to bet on — that needs a definition of "shell published" and belongs in its own change.
This is the payoff step for the three prerequisites that preceded it (#2130, #2144, #2159); it adds no new mechanism.
In-graph to in-graph
The publish chain #2095 built is reused rather than forked. The behaviour is unchanged: a candidate hangs on its deepest unpublished producer, a producer that places its last logical block seals the chain, detached waiters rescan and pre-stage.
The two cohorts differed only in where the fanin row lives and where the states do, and both were already made to match — the row by #2144's sorted CSR, the states by #2159's per-execution array. So three call sites take a cohort and everything else is shared.
in_graph_execution_ofnames that cohort once; it returns null for a GLOBAL task and for a GRAPH shell, which is a task of the run despite carrying agraph_context— the same paircomplete_taskalready routes on.Registration happens at materialization, where a body's tasks are already walked to hang each non-root on its first unmet producer. That point is single-owner per graph (the prepare-queue slot), so no peer can register the same task — a stronger guarantee than the top-level intake has. The completion path seals a tracked in-graph producer for the reason the global one does:
COMPLETED >= PUBLISHED, so a producer that never publishes (a DUMMY, or one a predicate retired) still releases its waiters.Materialization also copies the Definition's
ed_flagsonto the slot. #2144 recorded those verdicts and left them inert — validated but propagated nowhere; this is the line that consumes them.Ordinary task into a Graph
A shell qualifies by the top-level rule minus the terms that describe dispatching to cores, since it has no predicate, no shape, and occupies no core: its producers alone decide it. What its release does is stage the body's roots, each an ordinary AICore task with its own mask and blocks, gated exactly like any pre-staged task. They ring on the ordinary route: the shell's producers complete,
push_ready_routedhands the shell tograph_ready_queue, andactivate_graph_taskopens the external gategraph_route_ready_rootsreads. So the dependency the shell stands for is still honoured — the producers' PUBLISHED buys the roots' placement; only their COMPLETED launches them. The shell's own completion is a later and unrelated event: the body retiring.Two things worth review attention here:
ED_FLAG_CANDIDATEon it.push_ready_routedreads that flag as "this task may hold a staging claim, so check for a release", which is true of a root from that point on. Without it a staged root is gated and never rung — I hit exactly that, and the run ends inSIMPLER_ERROR_SCHEDULER_TIMEOUTrather than anything that names the cause. The verdict is three terms, none of them the recorded conjunction: the shell must itself be a candidate, sincestage_graph_roots_earlyis the only thing that can stage a root and it runs only on a shell release — without this term every root under a non-ED Graph pays aseq_cstCAS per route for a claim it can never hold; and the root must be neither DUMMY (no dispatchable shape to index a per-shape queue with) nor predicated (an early release returns before the predicate test). Deciding all three at materialization rather than at staging time is what keeps them off a slot a reader can already see.route_cursoris untouched. Staging is not routing; the ordinary route must still run, because that is what rings.An earlier attempt had the shell call
prepare_graph_taskinstead, on the theory that early release buys earlier materialization. It does not: intake pushes every shell onto the prepare queue as it is classified, and that path never waited on the shell's producers, so materialization was already running early. That version also draggedgraph_execution_materialize_sliceinto the link line of unit tests that do not build it.Testing
RejectsCandidateFlagWithoutItsConjunctionpins the image check below, mutation-verified: with the check removed all three malformed images localize. Plus five assertions for the two host/device verdicts this PR introduces:RootStagingVerdictWithholdsCandidatecovers each way a root fails to qualify (non-candidate shell, predicated root, DUMMY root), andFlaggedProducerMakesTheShellACandidate/OneUnflaggedProducerDisqualifiesTheShellcover the shell's own conjunction through a realgraph_submit_outer.host_build_graphsim 12 passed / 7 skipped; a5 13 passedgraph_executioncase showed the in-graph candidate registering, both its producers publishing and sealing, and the shell staging its root — the full chain, three times over the case's three layers.host_build_graph, 100 rounds trimmed to 80.

Every other case sits inside +-0.6% on device with mixed signs, exceptbatch_paged_attentionat a sign-consistent +0.32% / +0.33%, which is the shared-path cost of the cohort test and is smaller than the +0.7% the pre-review revision measured.The
graph_executionscene tests flag the seed task feeding the Graph shells and carry a dependency-only root, so onboard CI exercises the ordinary-to-Graph edge and the DUMMY-root exclusion rather than only the sim.Image validation
ED_FLAG_CANDIDATEwas inert until this PR: #2144 recorded the verdicts and nothing propagated them, sobind_graph_topologyonly had to reject unknown bits. Materialization now replays the flag onto a slot and it steers dispatch, so the reader holds the whole conjunction the recorder decides it by — a candidate must have a producer, a dispatchable shape and no predicate.The exit this closes is not the root path:
stage_graph_roots_earlyrequires an empty CSR row and a recorded candidate always hasfanin_count > 0, so that one was already shut. It is the non-root path. A malformed image withED_FLAG_CANDIDATEon a DUMMY non-root reachesearly_dispatch_queues[active_mask.to_shape()]withResourceShape::DUMMY == 3againstearly_dispatch_queues[NUM_RESOURCE_SHAPES == 3]— one past the end. The predicated variant is a correctness bug rather than a memory one: an early release returns before the predicate is tested.graph_fill_definitionis the only writer of this field and holds all three terms, so the check can only reject images it cannot produce.Known gap
An in-graph
sync_startroot now reaches the early-dispatch sync-start drain queue, and the only scene test on that path is top level. Tracked as #2184 — it wants a pass over howsync_startis scoped under hbg, not one more scene test bolted onto the existing shape.
