From 82376881e2b698e81bd5399e0d7901dbcaa8cfd0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mohit Kulkarni Date: Mon, 4 May 2026 19:07:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 01/41] M1: Remove positional embeddings (NoPE) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Under multi-episode-per-row rollouts (planned for the trial-redesign), training applies PE by slot-in-segment while rollout applies PE by slot-in-cache (which resets at episode boundary). Same logical step gets different PE values in train vs eval — distribution shift. Removing PE entirely sidesteps the mismatch by construction. Five sites patched in models.py: buffer registration removed, get_positional_embedding helper removed, forward_eval / _forward_eval_legacy / forward / _prime_kv_cache all updated to skip the PE add. _prime_kv_cache primes with zeros instead of pos_embed. Backwards-compat for existing PE-baked checkpoints: - vector.py partner load filters `positional_embedding` from state_dict - pufferl.py:load_policy filters the same key + autodetect heuristic now also accepts any `transformer.layers.*` key as a Transformer marker (since legacy detection relied on the PE buffer's presence). Tests: tests/test_transformer_kv_cache.py PASS (cached vs legacy forward_eval still bit-identical at fp32). Smoke train: 3 epochs at ~100K SPS, entropy declining, no NaN.

Brings back nn.Parameter positional_embedding (matches pre-eb2d7fe2 behavior). Adds compute_pos_within_episode static method that computes per-slot position-within-episode from a (B, T) terminals tensor, used at training time to align PE indexing with rollout's cache-pos indexing. Why: under multi-episode-per-row rollouts (planned for trial-redesign), forward_eval resets pos to 0 at every episode boundary via pufferl.py's done handling. So forward_eval applies pe[pos_within_episode] for the first step of each new episode in the cache. forward() (training) was applying pe[slot_in_segment] across the whole row regardless of boundaries — different absolute positions for the same logical step. This silently corrupted gradients under multi-episode-per-row. Formula (vectorized cummax trick): arange = [0..T-1] shifted = pad(terminals[:, :-1], (1, 0)) # right-shift terminals starts = arange * shifted # mark episode-start slots ep_start = starts.cummax(dim=1).values # propagate forward pos_in_ep = arange - ep_start # = 0 at each episode start Convention matches create_episode_mask: terminal slot belongs to OLD episode; new episode starts at slot terminal+1. Tests added: tests/test_pos_within_episode.py — 9 unit tests, all passing tests/test_pe_train_eval_consistency.py — 3 integration tests proving forward() output bit-matches step-by-step forward_eval (with manual cache reset at episode boundaries) for single-, 2-, and 3-episode-per-row segments. Existing tests/test_transformer_kv_cache.py still PASS (cached vs legacy forward_eval still bit-identical). Smoke train: 3 epochs in 2min, SPS ~100K, entropy stable, no NaN.

INI defaults MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit utils.py:run_human_replay_eval_in_subprocess: - Inherit goal_behavior from training env_config (was hardcoded to 0). - Forward max_trials_per_episode and per_trial_timeout flags. Wandb log path already auto-forwards every numeric metric under eval/human_replay_*, so the new trial_X_score and ada_delta_trial_K_minus_0 keys from M5 flow through automatically. adaptive.ini, drive.ini: - Add max_trials_per_episode=2 and per_trial_timeout=0 defaults. - Update goal_behavior comment to mention 3:"trial". Without these in the INIs, the pufferargs CLI parser doesn't generate --env.max-trials-per-episode / --env.per-trial-timeout flags, so launchers can't override them. Smoke train (gb=3, max_trials=2, per_trial_timeout=201) on adaptive_drive: Epoch 2 reached, SPS ~93K, no NaN. Trial fields flow through vec_log: n_trials_completed = 2.257, n_trials_goal_reached = 1.692, n_trials_timed_out = 0.565, trial_mean_length = 56.4 ticks → 75% of trials reach goal; mean trial length 56 ticks << 201 timeout. End of M1-M6. The trial-redesign is end-to-end functional: M1b: Per-episode-reset PE handles multi-episode-per-row attention M2: trial_ended_this_step buffer plumbed Python ↔ C M3: GOAL_TRIAL=3 implements per-trial logic in c_step M4: Per-trial Log fields exposed via vec_log M5: HumanReplayEvaluator emits trial_X_score, ada_delta_trial_K_minus_0 M6: Subprocess eval forwards goal_behavior; INIs register the new flags Known limitation (documented in the chat): episodes can span buffer segment row boundaries; the spillover slots in the next row are trained under truncated context vs full-cache rollout context. PPO clip damps but doesn't block the resulting gradient mismatch.

Do NOT call c_reset; the agent idles until Python's resample_frequency triggers _reinit_envs_with_new_maps.

Mirrors all per-entity state c_reset would reset (respawn_timestep, current_goal_reached, metrics_array, etc.) so the next cycle starts clean. - current_goal_reached=1 set in the goal-reach else branch (GOAL_STOP / GOAL_TRIAL share that path); reset to 0 in respawn_agent so the next trial can register a fresh goal-reach. Without this, every in-radius tick incremented goals_reached_this_episode and the score metric was meaningless. - move_expert loops the recorded trajectory under GOAL_TRIAL (t % array_size) so static experts don't vanish past scenario_length. - Trial overlay in c_render_with_mode: 'Trial X / K' instead of scenario counter.

Trial boundaries (truncations) no longer wipe KV cache, which is the whole point of adaptive training across trials. - GAE bootstrap_stop = (terminals + truncations).clamp(max=1.0): use truncations as the bootstrap-stop channel so V[t+1] from the post-respawn trial does not pull into the value target of the last step of the old trial. - truncations persisted into the rollout buffer (parallel to terminals) so GAE can read the boundary mask. - Debug logging: PUFFER_TRIAL_DEBUG_FILE env var enables per-event JSON trace of cache resets, GAE inner/outer, scenario boundaries, etc. render.py + utils.py: - Forward --goal-behavior + --max-trials-per-episode + --per-trial-timeout CLI flags to env init. - max_steps default under gb=3 = max_trials * per_trial_timeout (the worst-case episode budget) instead of k_scenarios * scenario_length. - Video basename uses 'trials{N}' label under gb=3. rollout.py: - max_steps default under trial mode matches drive.py / render.py. - Break when terms.all() so trial-mode rollouts stop at episode boundary rather than after exactly k_scenarios * scenario_length ticks. - info dict carries _trial_starts for downstream consumers. Tests (8 new + 1 updated): - test_gae_trial_boundary.py: GAE bootstrap-stop fires on truncations too, not just terminals. - test_gae_decoupling_integration.py: end-to-end trial_ended_this_step -> truncations mirror. - test_adaptive_trial_link.py: auto-link of max_trials/per_trial_timeout under gb=3. - test_trial_standard_metrics.py: episode-length, score, offroad, collision populate under gb=3 via add_log_one_agent. - test_trial_per_scenario_gate.py: per-scenario logic gated off under gb=3. - test_trial_score_semantics.py: score uses max_trials denominator. - test_trial_overcounting_fix.py: current_goal_reached gates goals_reached_this_episode increments. - test_rollout_trial_mode.py: rollout max_steps / break / info match trial mode. - test_goal_trial.py: updated test_trial_episode_resets to match Option D (one episode per resample_frequency; agent idles between).

We want it to **adapt +across attempts within a single fixed-budget episode** — i.e., use what it +saw in trial 1 to do better in trial 2, etc. That requires: + +1. Multiple goal-reach attempts ("trials") inside one episode. +2. KV cache that **persists across trial boundaries** (so context is + preserved) but **resets at episode boundaries** (so episodes are i.i.d.). +3. PPO/GAE that **stops bootstrap at trial boundaries** (because the + agent's value at $t+1$ is computed post-respawn, from a different + state, and bootstrapping it into the last step of the old trial + contaminates the target). + +These three things — cache reset, GAE bootstrap-stop, episode-vs-trial +distinction — have different gates. The next sections specify each. + +## Terms + +| Term | Meaning | +|---|---| +| **Trial** | One goal-reach attempt. Ends on goal-reach OR `per_trial_timeout` ticks. | +| **Episode** | A sequence of at most `max_trials_per_episode` trials, sharing a single KV cache. | +| **Scenario** | A map. Under `goal_behavior=3`, each episode runs on **one** map (no per-trial map swap). | +| **`terminals[t]`** | 1 ⇔ the *episode* ended at step $t$. Used for both **cache reset** and **GAE bootstrap-stop**. | +| **`truncations[t]`** | 1 ⇔ a *trial* ended at step $t$ but the episode continues. Used **only for GAE bootstrap-stop**; cache persists. | +| **`trial_ended_this_step[i]`** | Per-agent C-side flag, set every trial boundary (goal-reach or timeout). Mirrored to `truncations` by Python. | +| **Cache reset** | Zero out the Transformer's K/V tensors. Done at episode boundary only. | +| **GAE bootstrap-stop** | Setting $(1-\text{stop}_t) = 0$ in the GAE recursion to prevent $V_{t+1}$ contamination across the boundary. | + +## The two-boundary problem + +Standard PPO has one boundary signal (`dones`). We need two, because the +two distinct things that happen at trial-vs-episode boundaries don't +align: + +| Event | `terminals` | `truncations` | KV cache | GAE bootstrap | +|---|:-:|:-:|:-:|:-:| +| Within-trial step | 0 | 0 | continues | continues | +| **Trial end** (goal or timeout), more trials to go | 0 | **1** | **continues** | **stops** | +| **Episode end** (last trial done) | **1** | 0 | **resets** | stops | +| Scenario boundary (gb≠3 only) | 0 | 0 | n/a here | n/a | + +Mnemonic: **`terminals` ⇒ cache reset; (`terminals` OR `truncations`) ⇒ bootstrap stop.** + +## State machine — per agent, per `c_step` + +``` + ┌──────────────────────┐ + │ agent.removed == 1 │ ───── skip (Option D) + └──────────┬───────────┘ + │ no + ▼ + ┌─────── trial_ended? ─────┴───── neither ───→ continue trial + │ (reached || timed_out) + │ + ▼ + trial_ended_this_step[i] = 1 + trial_count++ + │ + ├── trial_count >= max_trials_per_episode ───→ EPISODE END + │ │ + │ ▼ + │ terminals[i] = 1 // Python: cache reset HERE + │ add_log_one_agent(env, i) // flush this agent's metrics + │ agent.removed = 1 // Option D: idle + │ agent.x, agent.y = INVALID // off-grid + │ + └── otherwise ─────────────────────────→ TRIAL END + │ + ▼ + respawn_agent(env, i) // back to start + agent.respawn_timestep = -1 // clear ghost flag (see "Render gates") + agent.trial_start_timestep = env->timestep +``` + +The Python side mirrors `trial_ended_this_step → truncations` after every +`vec_step`. So: + +* Trial-end branch → C sets `trial_ended_this_step[i] = 1`. Python sets + `truncations[i] = 1`. `terminals[i] = 0` (it was zeroed at the top of + `step`). +* Episode-end branch → C sets BOTH `trial_ended_this_step[i] = 1` AND + `terminals[i] = 1`. Python sets `truncations[i] = 1`. + +Both signals fire at the last trial end. That's intentional — the cache +reset gate (terminals) and the bootstrap-stop gate (terminals OR +truncations) both want to fire there. + +## PPO / GAE formulation + +Standard GAE (Schulman et al. 2016) with a single `done` signal: + +$$ +\delta_t = r_t + \gamma\,(1-d_t)\,V_{t+1} - V_t +$$ + +$$ +\hat A_t = \delta_t + \gamma\lambda\,(1-d_t)\,\hat A_{t+1} +$$ + +In vanilla PPO, $d_t = \text{terminals}_t$. The $(1-d_t)$ factors zero out +the $V_{t+1}$ bootstrap and the recursive advantage at episode boundaries +(where state $t+1$ is a fresh env reset — no semantic relation to state +$t$). + +**Trial-mode modification.** At every trial boundary (not just episode +boundary), state $t+1$ is the post-respawn state — back at the trajectory +start position with reset velocity. $V_{t+1}$ from that state is **not** a +valid bootstrap for state $t$ (the last step of the old trial, somewhere +else in the map). We define: + +$$ +\text{bootstrap\_stop}_t \;=\; \min\!\bigl(\text{terminals}_t + \text{truncations}_t,\; 1\bigr) +$$ + +and replace $d_t$ in BOTH GAE equations: + +$$ +\delta_t = r_t + \gamma\,(1-\text{bootstrap\_stop}_t)\,V_{t+1} - V_t +$$ + +$$ +\hat A_t = \delta_t + \gamma\lambda\,(1-\text{bootstrap\_stop}_t)\,\hat A_{t+1} +$$ + +This is `pufferlib/pufferl.py`'s `bootstrap_stop = (self.terminals + self.truncations).clamp(max=1.0)`. + +The KV cache reset is **independent**: it gates on `terminals` alone, NOT +on `bootstrap_stop`. Otherwise we'd lose the cross-trial context that is +the entire point of trial mode. + +``` + PPO/GAE bootstrap-stop KV cache reset + ───────────────────── ────────────── +trial boundary YES (truncations[t]=1) no ← preserves context +episode boundary YES (terminals[t]=1) YES (fresh i.i.d. start) +``` + +## Cache reset gate (`pufferl.py`) + +```python +done_mask = d # was: d + t (gated on terminals only) +self.transformer_context[done_mask.bool()] = 0 +``` + +If we used `d + t`, every trial boundary would wipe the cache — exactly +the opposite of what we want. Trial mode breaks without this fix. + +## Option D — idle-after-max_trials + +Naïve trial mode would, after the agent completes `max_trials_per_episode` +trials, immediately reset the env and start a new episode. With Python's +typical rollout of one map per `resample_frequency` ticks, this leads to +**many short episodes on the same map** — the agent overfits to a tiny +subset of maps within a single Python cycle, and gradient updates see the +same map's gradients repeatedly. + +Option D fixes this by **idling the agent after its episode ends**: + +```c +if (e->trial_count >= env->max_trials_per_episode) { + env->terminals[i] = 1; + add_log_one_agent(env, i); + e->removed = 1; + e->x = e->y = INVALID_POSITION; // off-grid + e->vx = e->vy = 0.0f; + // do NOT call c_reset +} +``` + +The agent is invisible to subsequent `c_step`s (the top-of-loop +`if (e->removed) continue;` gates it out). It stays idle until Python's +`_reinit_envs_with_new_maps` fires at the next `resample_frequency` +boundary — that's when the env loads a fresh map and `c_reset` resets +`removed = 0`. + +**Net effect**: 1 episode per resample window, exactly one fresh map per +episode. Map diversity restored. + +## Auto-link of trial parameters + +The user's mental model under `goal_behavior=3` is: "I'm running $k$ +trials, each of length $L$." In `pufferlib/ocean/drive/adaptive.py`: + +| Parameter | Auto-linked to | Override behavior | +|---|---|---| +| `max_trials_per_episode` | `k_scenarios` | Pass any value $\neq 2$ (the INI default) to disable the link | +| `per_trial_timeout` | `scenario_length` | Pass any value $> 0$ to override | +| `resample_frequency` | $k \times L$ | Pass any value $> 0$ to override | + +So `--env.k-scenarios 4 --env.goal-behavior 3 --env.scenario-length 201` +gives 4 trials of 201 ticks each, episode budget = 804 ticks, +resample at tick 804. + +**Gotcha.** The auto-link runs inside `AdaptiveDrivingAgent.__init__`.

Called only under goal_behavior == 3.

Under gb=3 the auto-link is now an invariant, not a heuristic with INI-default detection. To change the trial count, change k_scenarios. Surface changes: - INI: removed `max_trials_per_episode` and `per_trial_timeout` lines from drive.ini + adaptive.ini. - render.py: dropped --max-trials-per-episode + --per-trial-timeout CLI flags; max_steps default = k_scenarios * scenario_length under all goal_behaviors. - pufferlib/utils.py: subprocess-eval no longer forwards the two flags (the env derives them); video-naming uses k_scenarios. Internals: - adaptive.py: auto-link is unconditional under gb=3: kwargs["max_trials_per_episode"] = k_scenarios kwargs["per_trial_timeout"] = scenario_length Removed the "if user passed default of 2 vs override" detection. - evaluator.py: simplified to read from driver_env (still falls back to k_scenarios / sim_steps). - C-side struct keeps max_trials_per_episode + per_trial_timeout fields (used internally); the only consumers now are the C trial-end branch and add_log_one_agent's denominator. No external API surface. Tests: - test_adaptive_trial_link.py: replaced test_explicit_user_override_wins / test_explicit_per_trial_timeout_wins with their negations — under gb=3 any override is ignored, k_scenarios / scenario_length win. Documents the new invariant. Design doc: simplified the "Auto-link" section and the quick-reference knob table to reflect the smaller surface. All 16 trial-mode test files pass in isolation.

Two writers (C: zero, write at trial-end; Python: zero, mirror) made the buffer write-order-sensitive. Now C does everything; Python is read-only under gb=3. C side: - drive.h Env struct: added `unsigned char *truncations`. - env_binding.h: uncommented env->truncations wiring from positional arg (was wired for all sibling buffers, just not this one). Only Drive uses this header so no cross-env risk. - drive.h c_step: zeroes env->truncations at top under gb=3; writes 1 at each trial boundary in the GOAL_TRIAL branch (alongside trial_ended_this_step). Both signals fire on the same agents. Python side (drive.py): - step(): no longer zeroes truncations under gb=3 — C handles it. - step(): dropped the trial_ended_this_step → truncations mirror block. - Under non-trial modes (gb=0/1/2), Python still owns truncations: zeroes it at top of step (so the k_eff-curriculum scenario-boundary write at drive.py:1202 keeps working). Tests: tests/test_truncations_ownership.py (3): - C zeroes truncations each step under gb=3 (Python-side pollute is wiped). - C writes 1 simultaneously to truncations and trial_ended_this_step at trial boundary. - Non-trial mode untouched by C.

Under gb=3: - On ego goal-reach mid-trial: ego goes off-map (entity.removed=1, INVALID_POSITION, vx=vy=0). No truncations / terminals — wait for env trial-end. - env trial-end fires when ALL active egos in env have removed=1 OR env per_trial_timeout elapses. On trial-end, ALL entities (egos + co-players) reset to init position; env_trial_start updates; env trial_count++. - env episode-end (env_trial_count == max_trials): terminals fires for every active ego; Option D applies (removed stays, off-map until c_reset). env_episode_ended sentinel prevents repeat trial-ends until c_reset. Why: prior per-agent semantic broke the "trial 1 == trial 2 except cache" invariant — co-players and recorded humans ran on their own clocks, so trial 2's world differed from trial 1's world. Adaptation Δscore = trial_K - trial_0 conflated cache effects with stochastic traffic differences. B'' guarantees trial-conditions identity. C side (drive.h): - Env struct: added env_trial_count, env_trial_start_timestep, env_episode_ended. - Env struct: added `unsigned char *removed` SHM buffer (per-agent off-map flag). - c_reset: zeroes the env-level trial state + per-agent removed. - Goal-reach else-branch: under gb=3, set entity.removed=1 + off-map instead of stopped=1. - c_step GOAL_TRIAL block: rewritten to env-level trial-end detection + batch reset. Gates on !env_episode_ended. - move_expert: uses env_trial_start_timestep for the replay clock, so recorded humans rewind to frame 0 at each env trial-end. Python side: - drive.py: `self.removed` SHM buffer, wired through env_init kwargs. - binding.c: kwargs read for `removed` (both my_shared_self_play and my_init paths). Tests: tests/test_env_level_trial.py (6 new contract tests): - removed buffer exists + zero at reset - env trial-end fires on timeout when no ego reaches - ego goes off-map on goal-reach - env trial-end resets all entities to init (mid-episode, k>=3) - episode-end fires after max_trials → Option D removed=1 stays - truncations NOT fired on individual reach (only at env trial-end) All 17 prior trial-mode test files still pass in isolation. Pufferl-side KV cache freeze (so off-map limbo doesn't pollute the transformer cache across trial boundaries) is the next step — gated on vecenv.recv() integration.

Cause: overlay read per-entity `trial_count` (no longer maintained under B'' — env-level `env_trial_count` is the truth). Switched overlay to env-level counter and clamped to max_trials_per_episode. 2) Recorded humans / static experts vanished in trials 2..K. Cause: my B'' move_expert reset (t = timestep - env_trial_start) replays the same EARLY frames of recorded-human trajectories each trial. Many nuplan agents have late-valid windows (enter the scene mid-trajectory) — short trials never reach those valid frames, so the agents are invisible. Reverted move_expert to OLD looping `t = timestep % array_size`, which keeps humans continuously playing across trials. Trade-off: humans drift slightly across trials (different frame in trial 2 than trial 1). This violates the strict "trial 1 == trial 2" invariant for static experts. For training this is acceptable (humans are stochastic background). For paper-grade human_replay eval (1 ego per env) where strict equivalence matters, the eval path will need to explicitly reset move_expert — captured as a TODO in the function comment.

But c_reset's set_start_position uses traj[init_steps]. So trial 1 started at recorded frame `init_steps`, trial 2..K started at frame 0 — different recorded poses, different velocities, different lane alignment. Fix: respawn_agent now uses init_steps (clamped to array_size). 2) move_expert mapped (timestep - env_trial_start) to recording frame directly, ignoring init_steps. Static experts were at frame 1 at trial K tick 1, but at frame init_steps+1 at trial 1 tick 1 (because c_reset put them at init_steps then move_expert advanced one tick). Fix: t = init_steps + (timestep - env_trial_start). 3) Even with (1) and (2), the per-entity reset in the trial-end loop didn't touch static agents or rest various e->state fields (collision_state, valid, dynamics integrators). Replaced the per-active respawn_agent loop with a single set_start_position(env) call at trial-end, which resets the EXACT same state c_reset does for every entity in the env. Strict bit-for-bit equivalence verified: trial1 vs trial2 obs differ in 0/1850 dims, max diff = 0.0. Now trial K == trial 1 except for ego's KV cache, as designed.

Each invocation appends a new K/V token to that agent's cache. Over a 174-tick limbo period, ~87% of the cache becomes garbage; future trials' attention is dominated by junk tokens. Fix: per-agent attention-mask exclusion of garbage cache slots. models.py TransformerWrapper: - init_eval_state adds state["garbage_mask"]: (B, horizon) bool. - forward_eval reads state["removed"] (B,) bool from pufferl. The attention mask becomes (B, 1, 1, horizon) per-agent = (slot <= current_pos) AND (not garbage_mask). After cache write, garbage_mask[:, slot_t] |= removed marks the just-written slot as garbage for off-map agents. - reset_eval_state zeros garbage_mask alongside k_cache / v_cache, both for full-env reset and per-agent done_indices reset. pufferl.py: - New self.transformer_garbage_mask dict (per state_key, mirrors k_cache layout). Lazy-allocated by the model on first forward_eval. - Before forward_eval: state["garbage_mask"] = ..., state["removed"] = view of vecenv.driver_env.removed sliced by env_id. - After forward_eval: persist state["garbage_mask"] back. - On done_mask reset (terminals): clear garbage_mask rows alongside k_cache / v_cache rows. Tests (tests/test_cache_freeze.py, 4 contract tests): - Slots written while removed=1 have zero softmax weight in next step (verified via _probe_attention path that captures attention weights per layer per agent). - Other agents' attention to the same slots is unaffected. - Full reset (done_indices=None) zeros garbage_mask. - Partial reset (done_indices=[a, b]) zeros only those rows. - Without state["removed"] (non-gb=3 modes), no slots are marked garbage — backward-compat preserved. All 19 trial-mode test files pass. Multi-env caveat: pufferl reads vecenv.driver_env.removed, which works in single-Drive setups (render). For multi-worker training the buffer needs to be unified (SHM); driver_env.removed currently is one Drive's view. Captured as follow-up — same mechanism that propagates terminals across workers needs to do removed too.

In Multiprocessing this means each worker's `removed` writes were invisible to the main process — `driver_env.removed` on the parent was just a metadata stub that no worker ever wrote to. Effect: garbage_mask was never populated in training, so the cache-freeze mask did nothing. Plumb `removed` through SHM the same way `terminals`/`truncations` are: - vector.py Multiprocessing: allocate `removed=RawArray("b", num_agents)` in self.shm; expose `self.removed = self.buf["removed"].ravel()` for pufferl. _worker_process maps the worker's row into buf["removed"]. - vector.py Serial: allocate `self.removed` (or accept from outer buf) and slice per env into buf_i["removed"]. - drive.py: read `buf["removed"]` if present, fall back to local alloc. - pufferl.py: read unified `vecenv.removed` (works for both backends), falling back to driver_env.removed for compat. Verified: 4-worker Multiprocessing test shows worker-side writes (bit counts [1,2,1,1]) visible from the main process via SHM after one step. Serial driver_env.removed shares memory with vecenv.removed.

Training forward (`forward` → `create_episode_mask`) used only `terminals` and saw limbo tokens unmasked. The PPO loss also ignored `masks` (per the pre-existing `# Note: We are not yet handling masks in this version` at pufferl.py:798). Result: the policy attended to garbage during training AND limbo tuples (zero reward, post-reset or INVALID_POSITION obs) contributed gradient to pg_loss/v_loss/entropy. This commit closes the train/eval mismatch: - pufferl.py: add removed_history rollout buffer; capture vec.removed per step alongside terminals/truncations; pass mb_removed into the training forward via state["removed"]; weight pg_loss, v_loss, entropy_loss and diagnostic stats (approx_kl, clipfrac) by valid=~removed, normalized by sum(valid). - models.py: in the training `forward` else-branch (use_episode_mask), add (B, 1, T) limbo bias of -inf to the attention mask on the SOURCE axis. attn_mask[b, t, s] += -inf if removed[b, s], for all queries t. Matches eval-side `garbage_mask` semantics exactly.

NaN then poisons the (now-masked) per-step losses via 0 * NaN = NaN. Fix: leave attn_mask[b, t, t] = 0 always. This matches eval semantics exactly — garbage_mask[a, slot_t] is set AFTER the forward at step t, so a limbo query during its own forward attends to itself (just as it would on the eval side).

At limbo positions newvalue is computed from INVALID_POSITION obs and is garbage; the next outer GAE call (next minibatch) read it and propagated the poison. Gated: keep prior value at limbo positions. 2. **self.ratio[idx] = ratio.detach()** (line ~1016) cached limbo importance ratios. Outer GAE's v-trace uses these as rho/c coefficients. Limbo ratios are from logprob(garbage_obs, garbage_action) and pollute the next minibatch's advantage chain. Gated identically. 3. **bootstrap_stop** at both outer GAE (line ~900) and inner recomputation (line ~1049) only included `terminals + truncations`. Now also includes `removed_history.float()`, so V(t+1) bootstrapping stops at every limbo step. Otherwise the value at a healthy step t-1 would still bootstrap into V(garbage obs at t) when t is limbo. Together with the in-loop loss gating from e396507f, this fully contains limbo poisoning: limbo positions contribute zero gradient AND zero information to the GAE chain AND don't poison the value/ratio buffers across PPO epochs.

With population_play this meant co-player goal counts contaminated the ego aggregate, biasing the `completion_rate` metric upward (and indirectly any downstream consumer). Moved the two increments inside the ego guard. 2. vector.py: module-level cache `_CO_PLAYER_STATE_DICT_CACHE` keyed by (checkpoint_path, mtime). Render epochs were calling `pufferlib.vector.make` and reloading the (~50MB) co-player checkpoint from disk each time, contributing to the OOM seen at first-eval/render epochs. Cache invalidates if the file is replaced. Training path also benefits (only relevant if you construct multiple vec envs in one process). c_reset-at-episode-end was prototyped, then reverted after discussion: existing `bootstrap_stop ∨ removed` + loss mask already neutralizes the limbo gap's gradient damage; forcing c_reset would repeat the same map ~7× per resample window and reduce data diversity. Trade-off not worth the 5-10% wall-clock win.
