Mooncake adds MUSA build support to unblock non-NVIDIA testing
A GitHub PR adds MUSA GPU support to the Mooncake PG (ProcessGroup) module. The key reason is practical: without a working PG backend on MUSA, EP tests could only use a fallback path, which prevented meaningful validation on non-NVIDIA hardware.
The post also explains several compiler constraints that forced a refactor:
- mcc cannot parse PyTorch headers.
- It cannot handle c10d enum types like OpType or ReduceOp::RedOpType.
- Host code cannot use <<<>>> kernel launch syntax.
- MUSA lacks CUDA Graph support, so those paths must be #ifdef-ed out.
- mtbfloat16 is missing arithmetic operators, so reductions need a float accumulator.
