KernelSight-LM: A Kernel-Level LLM Inference Simulator

arXiv:2606. 28565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) move into production serving, practitioners must rapidly evaluate inference performance across diverse hardware, models, and serving parameters to meet cost and latency targets.

Calibrate, Then Route: A Measured Study of Learned Request Routing for Disaggregated LLM Serving

The paper evaluates a learned request‑routing policy for disaggregated large‑language‑model serving, where compute‑heavy prefill and memory‑heavy decode stages run on separate GPU pools. Using a discrete‑event simulator and real NVIDIA A40 GPUs, the calibrated router—leveraging prompt length, predicted output length, KV‑cache pressure, and SLO class—outperforms round‑robin, least‑loaded, and length‑based heuristics, achieving the highest mean goodput (0.864) and lowest variance across three mixed, bursty arrival traces. Hardware calibration proves critical, providing a 4.5‑point goodput boost and roughly 40 % of the tail‑latency advantage, and the learned router can match round‑robin performance with one fewer GPU in certain scenarios.

Dooly: Configuration-Agnostic, Redundancy-Aware Profiling for LLM Inference Simulation

Dooly is a profiling tool for large language model (LLM) inference that eliminates the need to re‑profile every operation for each configuration. By labeling input dimensions with taint propagation and only profiling operations missing from its latency database, Dooly builds a configuration‑agnostic, redundancy‑aware latency database that can be used as a drop‑in backend for simulators. In experiments across two GPU platforms, three attention backends, and multiple model architectures, Dooly achieves simulation accuracy within 5% MAPE for time‑to‑first‑token and 8% for total‑processing‑time while cutting profiling GPU‑hours by 56.4% compared to traditional methods.

Optimizing CUDA like a Human: Micro-Profiling Tools as Expert Surrogates for LLM-Based GPU Kernel Optimization

arXiv:2606. 26453v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present KernelPro, a closed-loop multi-agent system that automatically generates, profiles, and iteratively optimizes GPU kernel code by integrating large language model (LLM) code generation with hardware profiler feedback and pluggable bottleneck detection tools.
