Summary

Adds XPU (Intel GPU) support for MiniMax-M3 (#45381), plus a BMG-specific tuning of the Gemma RMSNorm Triton kernel. The vendored nvidia/ and amd/ models are untouched; all changes are additive under a new xpu/ package.

Commits

  1. Add XPU support for the MSA sparse-attention path (40aa215)

    • New vllm/models/minimax_m3/xpu/ package mirroring the nvidia/amd split. Reuses the entire NVIDIA model and overrides only MiniMAXGemmaRMSNorm, which on XPU uses portable Triton Gemma RMSNorm kernels (xpu/ops/gemma_rmsnorm.py, mirroring the ROCm path) instead of CUDA-only FlashInfer kernels — no dependency on vllm-xpu-kernels for this op. __init__.py dispatches XPU → xpu/.
    • common/ops/index_topk.py _decode_index_score_kernel: the per-block score dot has output dim == num_index_heads (4 for M3); Intel Triton's tl.dot requires ≥ 16. A USE_DOT constexpr keeps tl.dot on CUDA while XPU uses an equivalent fp32 reduction over the head dim.
    • The MSA path runs on the platform-neutral Triton kernels (indexer + block-sparse GQA attend); select_main_impl_cls / select_indexer_impl_cls already fall back to the Triton impls on non-CUDA platforms.
  2. Tune gemma_rmsnorm Triton num_warps for BMG (1e224de)

    • The _num_warps heuristic picked 16 warps for the M3 hidden sizes (BLOCK_N up to 4096), over-subscribing a single row on BMG/Xe2 and regressing the bandwidth-bound rmsnorm/fused-add kernels. Uses a gentler ramp (16 only for BLOCK_N ≥ 8192, else 8/4/2). Kernel math unchanged.

Not a duplicate

This supersedes draft PR #45797 (now closed), which contained only the gemma_rmsnorm tuning. This PR combines that tuning with its parent MSA sparse-attention XPU support. No other open PR addresses the MiniMax-M3 XPU path.

Testing

  • gemma_rmsnorm: parity vs the fp32 reference verified across n ∈ {128, 2048, 3072, 4096, 6144}.

MiniMax-M3 (vllm-project#45381) runs its MSA path on the platform-neutral Triton kernels
(indexer + block-sparse GQA attend); the NVIDIA fmha_sm100 MSA path is
Blackwell-only. select_main_impl_cls / select_indexer_impl_cls already fall back
to the Triton impls on non-CUDA platforms, so the common backend works on XPU.

XPU-specific changes (the vendored nvidia/ and amd/ models are untouched):

- New vllm/models/minimax_m3/xpu/ package mirroring the nvidia/amd split. It
  reuses the entire NVIDIA model and overrides only MiniMAXGemmaRMSNorm, which
  on XPU uses portable Triton Gemma RMSNorm kernels (xpu/ops/gemma_rmsnorm.py,
  mirroring the ROCm path) instead of the CUDA-only FlashInfer kernels -- no
  dependency on vllm-xpu-kernels. __init__.py dispatches XPU -> xpu/.
- common/ops/index_topk.py _decode_index_score_kernel: the per-block score dot
  has output dim == num_index_heads (4 for M3); Intel Triton's tl.dot requires
  >= 16. A USE_DOT constexpr keeps tl.dot on CUDA while XPU uses an equivalent
  fp32 reduction over the head dim.

The fused qknorm/rope/kv-insert kernel is provided by vllm-xpu-kernels under
torch.ops._C, so vllm/_custom_ops.py needs no change. is_arch_support_pdl()
already defaults to False on XPU (inherited from the base Platform).

Mirror of the vllm-xpu change: the _num_warps heuristic picked 16 warps for
the M3 hidden sizes (BLOCK_N up to 4096), which over-subscribes a single row
on BMG/Xe2 and regresses the bandwidth-bound rmsnorm/fused-add kernels. Use a
gentler ramp (16 only for BLOCK_N >= 8192, else 8/4/2). Kernel math unchanged.

Parity vs the fp32 reference verified across n in {128, 2048, 3072, 4096, 6144}.
