From 92bd5b5f3dcd9a400ea0a41def277ef789f0fdcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rudra Mantri <189433012+RudraMantri123@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 23:11:57 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] Fix NaN attention scores on MPS from uninitialized baddbmm buffer On MPS, torch.baddbmm does not honor the documented beta=0 semantics: NaN/Inf present in the input buffer propagate to the output. Both copies of get_attention_scores (Attention and AttentionModuleMixin) pass torch.empty() as that buffer, so recycled allocator pages containing NaN poison the attention scores, producing all-black images with SlicedAttnProcessor (e.g. SDXL + enable_model_cpu_offload + enable_attention_slicing). Use a buffer-free scaled bmm on MPS when there is no attention mask. This avoids relying on the beta=0 contract, skips the scores-sized buffer allocation entirely (lower peak memory on the memory-constrained devices the sliced path targets), and benchmarks ~35% faster than the baddbmm+empty path on Apple Silicon. Other backends are unchanged.
