Five DSv4-Pro programs exceed the runtime's compile-time output heap of
256 MiB per ring and fail on device with orch_error_code=2 HEAP_RING_DEADLOCK. Ring sizing used to come from the PTO2_RING_*
environment variables, which CI set to 1 GiB; when those were retired
the sizing moved onto RunConfig, and nothing carried it for these
kernels.

  • prefill_attention_csa/hca/swa pass
    config=RunConfig(ring_heap=PREFILL_ATTN_RING_HEAP), now 1 GiB per
    ring. Ring sizing lives on execute_compiled's config parameter
    rather than on its signature, so the kernels name that parameter;
    runtime_cfg forwards it as the plain pass-through it already is.
    The constant already recorded what the kernel needs but was never
    applied, and its comment claimed 4 GiB on all four rings still
    deadlocked. Measured on a5, 512 MiB is enough for all three, so 1 GiB
    is one doubling of headroom and the comment is corrected.
  • prefill_mtp and prefill_layer pass a scalar ring_heap, which the
    L3 path already reads off runtime_cfg. Ring 2 alone at 2 GiB, which
    prefill_fwd.py sets, does not clear either of them, so both size
    every ring.
  • _run_benchmark forwards that RunConfig the way the L3 branch
    already does. The benchmark is a second, independent dispatch, so
    sizing only the correctness run moves the deadlock instead of
    removing it. The forwarded copy carries this run's real platform and
    device: benchmark() takes config= or platform=/device_id= and
    never both, and a bare RunConfig still defaults to a2a3sim on
    device 0.

Measured on a5 against pypto main: prefill_attention_csa/hca/swa go
from HEAP_RING_DEADLOCK to passing, at 2752 / 2074 / 1980 us including
the benchmark loop. prefill_mtp and prefill_layer stop deadlocking
and reach their next failure -- an all-NaN row and a
sched_error_code=100 sub_class=S1:running-stalled respectively -- both
pre-existing and out of scope here. A 36-case sweep showed no regression
elsewhere. Requires the ring-config forwarding from
hw-native-sys/pypto#2590, which is merged and now pypto main HEAD.

L2 ring-sizing execution

Layer / File(s) Summary
Runner routing and benchmark integration
golden/runner.py
Ring-sizing options now use a validated ChipWorker route with a compiled program. Standard execution continues through execute_compiled. run, run_jit, and L2 benchmarking pass the required routing data.
Prefill attention ring configuration
models/deepseek_v4_pro/prefill_attention_*.py
CSA, HCA, and SWA apply four 1 GiB ring heaps through run_jit runtime configuration.
MTP prefill ring configuration
models/deepseek_v4_pro/prefill_mtp.py
MTP applies a 1 GiB ring heap through run_jit runtime configuration.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 5f68e

Ring-configured L2 executions now use a dedicated dispatch path, but unsupported or misspelled runtime settings can be silently ignored and restore default heap sizing, potentially causing the heap deadlocks this change is intended to prevent. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up to reject such settings.

Four heaps settle into place just right
ChipWorker carries the compiled tune
MTP avoids a deadlock at noon

Design note — this PR is a stopgap at the wrong layer, filed upstream as
pypto #2586.

run_jit(runtime_cfg=...) is meant to be a pure pass-through to
execute_compiled's keyword arguments, precisely so pypto-lib does not carry
its own field vocabulary and does not have to re-adapt whenever the runtime
surface moves. This PR breaks that: it introduces a lib-owned _RING_KEYS set,
a lib-side _l2_run_config, and a second dispatch route chosen by inspecting
runtime_cfg — all of which belong in pypto, not here.

The real gap is that execute_compiled has no way to reach
CallConfig.runtime_env, so a ring override cannot be expressed on the L2
path at all. pypto #2586 asks for execute_compiled to accept a RunConfig
(preferred, so future knobs need no lib change) or at minimum the three
ring_* keywords.

Once that lands, this PR should be reduced to what it should have been: the
four kernels passing ring_heap through runtime_cfg, with the runner
changes reverted.

Holding here for a decision on whether to merge this as an interim unblock or
wait for the upstream fix.

Five DSv4-Pro programs exceed the runtime's compile-time output heap of
256 MiB per ring and fail on device with `orch_error_code=2
HEAP_RING_DEADLOCK`. Ring sizing used to come from the `PTO2_RING_*`
environment variables, which CI set to 1 GiB; when those were retired
the sizing moved onto `RunConfig`, and nothing carried it for these
kernels.

- `prefill_attention_csa/hca/swa` pass
  `config=RunConfig(ring_heap=PREFILL_ATTN_RING_HEAP)`, now 1 GiB per
  ring. Ring sizing lives on `execute_compiled`'s `config` parameter
  rather than on its signature (pypto #2590), so the kernels name that
  parameter; `runtime_cfg` forwards it as the plain pass-through it
  already is. The constant already recorded what the kernel needs but
  was never applied, and its comment claimed 4 GiB on all four rings
  still deadlocked. Measured on a5: 512 MiB is enough for all three, so
  1 GiB is one doubling of headroom and the comment is corrected.
- `prefill_mtp` and `prefill_layer` pass a scalar `ring_heap`, which the
  L3 path already reads off `runtime_cfg`. Ring 2 alone at 2 GiB, which
  `prefill_fwd.py` sets, does not clear either of them, so both size
  every ring.
- `_run_benchmark` forwards that `RunConfig` the way the L3 branch
  already does. The benchmark is a second, independent dispatch, so
  sizing only the correctness run moves the deadlock instead of removing
  it. The forwarded copy carries this run's real platform and device:
  `benchmark()` takes `config=` or `platform=`/`device_id=` and never
  both, and a bare `RunConfig` still defaults to `a2a3sim` on device 0,
  so pinning them here keeps a kernel that omits them off the simulator.

Measured on a5 against pypto main with #2590:
`prefill_attention_csa/hca/swa` go from HEAP_RING_DEADLOCK to passing,
at 2752 / 2074 / 1980 us including the benchmark loop. `prefill_mtp` and
`prefill_layer` stop deadlocking and reach their next failure -- an
all-NaN row and a `sched_error_code=100 sub_class=S1:running-stalled`
respectively -- both pre-existing and out of scope here. A 36-case sweep
showed no regression elsewhere.
