From 2b2e19337c421017b246696045c7b5cdacf236be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: lvyufeng Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2026 10:45:40 +0800 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fix: restore cython min/max providers and guard profiled NPU add fast path Restore Tensor.min/max to the Cython provider layer and make the Cython wrappers preserve the current no-arg and tensor-arg behavior. Also disable the NPU fast_add backend path while the profiler is active so profiler NPU event capture no longer corrupts subsequent functionalize view writeback on 910B.

Restore Cython fast path for torch.mul while preserving out= support (broken by #321 which unconditionally routed mul through _py_mul).
