Description

This PR adds paged attention support for FusedAttention, FlashAttention, and UnfusedDotProductAttention.

  • KV cache is maintained in 'bshd' format, and it supports FP32/FP16/BF16, not FP8 yet
  • Context parallelism is not supported with KV cache
  • FusedAttention and UnfusedDotProductAttention support page_size >= 16, and FlashAttention supports page_size >= 256
  • All backends support both pure generation and mixed generation/context in the batch
  • FlashAttention supports paged attention through flash_attn_varlen_func, not flash_attn_with_kvcache, due to some numerical issues
  • UnfusedDotProductAttention supports paged attention by converting paged cache tensors to non-paged, before attention
