1// nx_intfp_flashattn_gate.nx -- FLASH-ATTENTION (online-softmax, O(T) memory, no T×T matrix) in Q20 INTEGER. 2// modelwright marks flash-attn ABSENT ("ours is a plain score matrix"). Flash processes keys one at a time keeping 3// a running max m, running denominator l, and running output o, rescaling by exp(m_old-m_new) when the max grows 4// -- mathematically identical to full softmax attention but streaming (the key to long-context scale). Here: compute 5// attention BOTH ways (full materialized + flash online) and verify they MATCH.
