Does the amax and max functions from the cupy library in python hold an error, when using matrices, with only one column or only one row?

I tried implementing the softmax activation function for machine learning and image classification using Cupy for GPU acceleration. I observed that for arrays with shapes NX1 or 1XN, Cupys max function outputs an error. However, for all other cases with NXA, where N and A are both whole numbers other than 1, it works perfectly fine.

My Code:

def softmax_(Z):
    max_Z = cp.max(Z, axis=0, keepdims=True)  # problematic max function
    exp_Z = cp.exp(Z - max_Z)  # Subtracting the maximum value for numerical stability
    sum_exp_Z = cp.sum(exp_Z, axis=0, keepdims=True)  # Summing up the values
    return exp_Z / sum_exp_Z  # dividing them to get the softmax

array1 = cp.random.randn(3, 4)  # 3x4
array2 = cp.random.randn(5, 1)  # 5x1

print(softmax_(array1))  # no error
print(softmax_(array2))  # produces an error

My OSError, which I am inexperienced with:

OSError: [WinError 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect: 'C:\\Users\\confidential\\.cupy\\jitify_cache\\tmp1pxgjv_g' -> 'C:\\Users\\confidential/.cupy/jitify_cache/jitify_<unknown>_200200_12030_2_b3452ffa79e273adadd0403b6b0c05b78158b1e0.json'

The output for array 1

Output: [[0.17813469 0.20912114 0.19734889 0.30515635] [0.42569072 0.47354802 0.4463671 0.20997539] [0.39617459 0.31733085 0.356284 0.48486825]]

The error for array2:

This is a known issue for CuPy v13.0.0 on Windows. I fixed it upstream and it'd be included in v13.1.0.
