CUDA compilation error with Ctx Length>2000

See original GitHub issue

Hello, I am trying out RWKV with audio modality and when I set T_MAX>>1000, it throws this error:

Emitting ninja build file /root/.cache/torch_extensions/py39_cu116/timex/build.ninja...

GPU: A100, VRAM: 42GB, CUDA 11.6

I am okay if the training takes a bit long. But I need this to work. Don’t know any CUDA. Can you suggest some workarounds?

Thanks for the incredible work btw!

@BlinkDL Can you please point out where we need to make a change to the code to reduce the tensor element from 4 bytes to 2 bytes? Thanks a lot!

And the current design will overflow under FP16 😃 Wait for my new kernels.

Now the new RWKV-4 can compile ctxlen=4096 kernels 😃
