Summary

  • Adds a new "Using ACF Files (Booster Pack)" section to docs/helion-hackathon.md
  • Documents the /opt/booster_pack/ ACF files available on B200 instances
  • Explains how to use autotune_search_acf during local autotuning
  • Explains how to hardcode advanced_controls_file in submissions for KernelBot
  • Includes the important caveat that ACF search is ignored when autotune_effort="none" or a fixed config= is provided

Test plan

  • Verified markdown renders correctly
  • Code examples match the Helion API (autotune_search_acf, advanced_controls_file)
  • Verified against Helion source that the described behavior is accurate

Documents how to use PTXAS Advanced Controls Files from /opt/booster_pack/
during autotuning (autotune_search_acf) and in hardcoded submissions
(advanced_controls_file). Includes the important caveat that ACF search
only works when the autotuner actually runs.
