arXiv:2608. 14586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are becoming a promising paradigm for autonomous driving, but their deployment on existing vehicle platforms remains difficult because they introduce both high inference latency and strong GPU-side resource pressure.

AsmEvo is an agentic assembly-level optimizer that targets compiled AMDGPU code objects, reconstructing a reassemblable representation and applying low-level edits guided by a long-horizon agent. It rebuilds ABI-preserving optimized objects and verifies functional equivalence through differential testing against the original binary. Experiments show significant speedups—up to 1.35× geometric mean on MI308X and 1.18× on MI300X—while maintaining correctness.

The paper addresses the problem of non‑deterministic outputs from large language models (LLMs) when run on different GPU architectures, caused by floating‑point non‑associativity and hardware‑dependent kernel choices. It proposes a set of fixed‑configuration fused‑upcast GEMM kernels that load 16‑bit weights, upcast to FP32, and perform IEEE‑754 compliant reductions in a problem‑shape‑dependent order, ensuring identical linear‑layer outputs across NVIDIA Ampere, Ada, and Hopper GPUs. The new approach achieves 1.17–3.1× faster end‑to‑end performance than existing solutions and halves weight‑memory traffic while maintaining cross‑architecture reproducibility.
